Fact Checking Obama's Infomercial

Posted on 10/30/2008 4:06:51 PM PDT by altsehastiin

Are people going over the stories about the people in Obama's infomercial ala the way the media did to Joe the Plumber?

For example, Obama's first story was about "Larry and Juanita Stewart" of Sardinia, Ohio. Supposedly, they needed to mortgage their home of 10 years to pay for medical bills.

Sardinia's in Brown County, Ohio. A check of their property tax records show no Larry and Juanita Stewart owning property in Sardinia. http://brownauditor.ddti.net/

And a check of the Brown County recorder's website doesn't show a Larry Stewart involved in a transaction, either a purchase or a lien, for property in Sardinia. http://www.landaccess.com/sites/oh/brown/shared/tract/tract_name_results.php

I also can't find recrods for Larry (or Lawrence) or Juanita Stewart in neighboring county websites.

Amazing, isn’t it?

In 12 hours, we knew more about “JtP” then Obama, yet the MSM hasn’t investigated any of the claims in the Obama infomercial.

They haven’t asked Bill Ayers a single question.

Toni Rezko? Raila Odinga?

Ask the average voter and they won’t know who those people are.

But ask them if they know that JtP owes a few bucks back taxes, or if Sarah Palin fired someone illegally and they’ll say yes.

Intellectually lazy people might elect an equally intellectual idiot and put him in the WH

No wonder the DJIA dropped when his numbers rose.

Look at your http://brownauditor.ddti.net/ link under “Stuart” and you’ll find “STUART LAWRENCE C” and “STUART LAWRENCE C & JUANITA” entries.

There were a lot of statements in the depressing infomercial that contradict Obama’s words elsewhere in the campaign. It was filled with complete lies.

The lie about rebuilding the military was particually outrageous given other statements he has made which are exactly the opposite.

Isn’t this pretty common with Democratic politicians? The little moral tales spun by Dick Gephart, Tom Daschle, Harry Reid, et. al. often don’t bear scrutiny. But nothing is ever made about it [unlike Joe the Plumber] ‘cause it’s understood that the message is the important issue.

Do you have the names and city/state for each of the featured families? Please post - I’d like to dig as well.

What a great story if these people are actors.

By law, I believe you can ask Ford in Louisville to confirm dates of employment for the couple.

Their property is worth a decent amount, particularly for Brown Co

The median income for a household in the county was $38,303, and the median income for a family was $43,040.

Still, they probably aren’t rolling in it. If she is very ill, then they very well may have to find a way to get more cash to pay for it (particularly if they didn’t purchase good insurance or get it from the Rail road)
