That translates as anything anyone says about the Messiah they don’t like will be deemed a lie. Nice, really nice. This is the crowd dem voters support. What a bunch.

[jennyjenny]

This is, obviously, an attempt to intimidate, however, I didn't hear where they said they were going to prosecute anyone, just that they would be targeted, whatever that means.

Obama has big ears and an ugly bump on his face.

[proudtobeanamerican1]

I can just picture them cuffing Palin and McCain for slamming Obama. The sad part is this isn’t a joke.

a misleading TV ad

And who decides what's "misleading"? This is unbelievable. How can prosecutors and sheriffs basically work for a certain candidate?? And to the other poster- the one prosecutor actually did say something about "character" so is isn't a question of truth, but what they determine may be misleading or impugns Obama's "character". This is truly frightening. Hey DUmmies and KOmmies, you wanna know what fascism looks like? Take a look at your buddy Obama and his good squad.

Truth...as they see it! 1st Ammendment declared illegal in Missouri!...by the dummiecrats. Is calling them dummiecrats a lie? Come git me!!!!

[Stayfree]

Obama supporters in Missouri are blatantly announcing that law enforcement will be used to prosecute you if you are part of campaign ads that tell, in their opinion, "lies" about Barack Obama.

You can take that commie, Muslim Hussein Obama and stick him and all his lies up your AAAAASSSSSSS!

Come and get it...thousands of rounds of hot lead just waiting for you to show up at my door...BANG

McCULLOCH OFFICE

YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BELIEVE THIS!

I just called county prosecutor Bob McCulloch's office. I spoke with his secretary Cindy.

DFU: I saw the KMOV piece last night regarding the lies being told about Barack Obama. It is about time someone is doing something about this. Last night I saw a bumper sticker that said BARACK OBAMA IS A MUSLIM. I asked the guy about it and where he got it, and I think I may know the printer in St. Louis who is printing that bumper sticker. When I can verify the information, would Mr. McCulloch like to have that information?

CINDY: In light of what Mr. McCulloch has said, I would gather that would be something he would need to know.

New York Times Company v. Sullivan, 376 U.S. 254 (1964).
In order for a public official or a public figure to prove defamation, they must prove actual malice. Actual malice requires that the person suing prove that the challenged statement was published by those who either knew it was false or were reckless in verifying its accuracy.

Who is a Public Official?
The Supreme Court has said that a public official is one who, at the very least, has or appears to the public to have, a substantial responsibility for or control over governmental affairs.

Who is a Public Figure? There are two categories:
(1) General Purpose Public Figure: a “celebrity,” whose pervasive fame or notoriety has made his or her name a “household word.”
(2) Limited Purpose Public Figure: someone who has voluntarily assumed a leading role in a particular public controversy.

Somebody please get this posted to YouTube. I cannot get the KMOV video to load. (Crashed?)

Official communique to the Obama truth squad from FreeRepublic.com

[Proudcongal]

How utterly arrogant. Is Obama trying to get himself arrested — being that he’s the liar? This information should be used in ads all over the country and let people see for themselves what this nazi is capable of. Downright dangerous.

[Brown Deer]

Has anyone contacted Missouri law enforcement about any of Obama’s misleading ads?

...or has Obama already turned himself in?

[tutstar]

surely they are on drugs

Prosecutor Abuse Of Power - remember the Duke Lacrosse Prosecutor? The same will happen to these liberal trash.

I think we are in the living in the twilight era of the First Amendment.

Campaign finance reform was final straw, I do not hold out much hope.

[demsux]

McCullough’s office won’t accept messages...so I sent an email.

Said Obama is a Muslim and told him to come arrest me, so I can sue him for violating my rights to free speech.

Hey dirt bags from Missouri. Show me!
