Gov. Matt Blunt responds.

“St. Louis County Circuit Attorney Bob McCulloch, St. Louis City Circuit Attorney Jennifer Joyce, Jefferson County Sheriff Glenn Boyer, and Obama and the leader of his Missouri campaign Senator Claire McCaskill have attached the stench of police state tactics to the Obama-Biden campaign.

“What Senator Obama and his helpers are doing is scandalous beyond words, the party that claims to be the party of Thomas Jefferson is abusing the justice system and offices of public trust to silence political criticism with threats of prosecution and criminal punishment.

“This abuse of the law for intimidation insults the most sacred principles and ideals of Jefferson. I can think of nothing more offensive to Jefferson’s thinking than using the power of the state to deprive Americans of their civil rights. The only conceivable purpose of Messrs. McCulloch, Obama and the others is to frighten people away from expressing themselves, to chill free and open debate, to suppress support and donations to conservative organizations targeted by this anti-civil rights, to strangle criticism of Mr. Obama, to suppress ads about his support of higher taxes, and to choke out criticism on television, radio, the Internet, blogs, e-mail and daily conversation about the election.

“Barack Obama needs to grow up. Leftist blogs and others in the press constantly say false things about me and my family. Usually, we ignore false and scurrilous accusations because the purveyors have no credibility. When necessary, we refute them. Enlisting Missouri law enforcement to intimidate people and kill free debate is reminiscent of the Sedition Acts - not a free society.”

...next thing you know they'll have to arrest themselves for misleading America about their candidate!

Who are fascists now eh?

I believe Typicalwhitey and realwest are all over this.

The Barack Obama campaign is asking Missouri law enforcement to target anyone who “lies or runs a misleading TV ad” during the presidential campaign;

What, does Obama want to spend the rest of the campaign in jail?

Obama is a fucking loser.
OT...Matt Bryant for my Buccaneers lost his 3 month old son this week. Add him into prayers tonight. :(

The governor of Missouri had to come out and tell Obama and his Marxist goon squads to leave the 1st amendment alone.

Wow. just Wow.

Another reason most in the military can not stand B-HO is who he has as one of his military "advisors" - one retired AF General Merrill "Tony" McPeak, who is likely to be B-HOs first pick as his SecDef.

Believe me, you do NOT want to see this buffoon in that role! What he did to the AF in the '90s as the Air Force JCS rep is shameful, scandalous, and pure bullshit. He is the one that combined the commands SAC, TAC, MAC, etc, and did what is probably the worst thing to happen to the AF since its inception in 1947. He is a PC disaster.

Or am I being racist?

OK, here I step up on the soap box. It is remarkable that Obama stated several times during the first debate in Mississippi that al Qaeda is stronger than ever. He seemed determined to convince America that we are in great danger from that enemy, and repeatedly identified the location of the threat as being in Afghanistan. He mentioned Pakistan, and said that al Quada is in 60 nations, but he kept returning to Afghanistan as the locus of danger from al Qaeda and bin Laden. His purpose was apparently to "prove" that the war in Iraq was a mistake, that instead we should have done more in Afghanistan, and with the goal of capturing or killing a single man, bin Laden. He does not realize that bin Laden is only a symbol for a huge international movement with the goal of destroying America, and that the chosen battleground of that movement, as named by bin Laden himself, has been on the killing fields of Iraq. How could so many of us know that, and he does not?

Unlike in Vietnam our military has not released enemy body counts from Iraq, but as those of us who have paid attention know our troops have killed tens of thousands of terrorist jihadistrs who descended on Iraq from all over the world to make it the main battle line against America and the non-Muslim world. Operations in Iraq have been a proxy war between America and the worldwide Islamic effort to destroy western civilization and creat a worldwide Caliphate. It is in Iraq that our enemies set out to beat us, not Afghanistan. And should we invade Pakistan as Obama seems to favor, and kill bin Laden as he fantasizes that we should, we would only succeed in making bin Laden a martyr for the continued attacks on the West. It would be a victory for the enemy, not a defeat, and with the added effect of potentially launching us into a full scale conflict with Pakistan.

But Obama thinks that it was a mistake to stand up in Iraq to waves of mujahaddin in an epic battle against a worldwide movement that seeks to destroy America and overrun Europe? If that is what he thinks, then he is not only mistaken, he has fallen right out of his acorn tree (pun intended). Most Americans are unaware of the real story in Iraq, thanks to our flaky media's refusal to report anything but bad news, but surely Obama could take the time to learn the truth, no? Well, apparently not. Or if so, then the truth doesn't matter to him.

Here is a possible scenario, just my thoughts. Bear with me. As I see it, Obama is not a serious person. He is someone who thinks that life is a game. He decided to run for President of the United States more or less for a lark, having no idea that he could possibly be nominated, much less elected. Perhaps he thought that having a presidential run on his resume would help him get a cushy job as a university president or as the head of some lefty think tank. Having added election to the Senate to his list of achievements, he must have asked himself what interesting thing to do next. And he decided, hey! I shall run for President! So he did — and, to his own great surprise he was swept on an irrational tide of fortune to become the Democratic nominee, something he neither foresaw or expected. As it sometimes does the fickle finger of fate reached out and touched Obama. Ooops!

That reminds me - I need to renew my membership.

I find it ironic that moonbats have been screaming about their rights being violated under the Bush "regime" yet something like this comes about and it's fair game because it is to the benefit of The One.

PART TWO

To return to his insistence that bin Laden "in Afghanistan" is still a credible threat to the US, even though The Sheik has been hiding in a cave in some undisclosed location for the better part of a decade, this offers a sure clue that Obama has no idea what is going on in the world or what to do about it. And, if it is true that al Qaeda has regained its strength and threatens the US anew as he repeatedly told us in the Friday debate, exactly how does that qualify Obama to be Commander in Chief? If our nation is faced with foreign military threats, that seems like a sure call for the steady hand of McCain in the White House, not an unproven empty suit. So why would he make that point, and make it so vigorously?

Could it be … could it just possibly be…that Obama wants to lose? That all this stuff is so far above his pay grade that he is scared out of his socks and he wants to coast to an honorable defeat in November? If that is his purpose it could help explain some of his actions, and it must scare him even more to see that his polling numbers continue to remain aloft even after he has committed one faux pas after another. In this scenario, all his blatant efforts to fail have been ignored by his deluded followers and painted over by a remarkably disconnected and increasingly irrelevant media. How disturbing that must be to him. Obama is far past the point of no return and there is no way out except to honorably lose the election. And yet, and yet ... the polls keep saying he might actually win.

In that position, what would a person of honor do? We cannot answer that question, because no honorable, or even rational person would ever allow him- or herself to get into such a position in the first place. Obama surely cannot at this late date admit to the American people that he is a sham and a fraud, cannot step aside in favor of Hillary perhaps, or simply bail out and leave Joe Biden to finish the campaign without him. He can do none of those things, not now. It's too late by far. All he can do is "hope" to lose.

Should my suppositions be even remotely correct, then Obama NEEDS to lose for his own sake, much less for the sake of our nation. Let us all do everything we can to contribute to his success … his success in failing to win in November. Obama's best hope, and America's, is McCain/Palin 2008-2016. Palin/? 2016-2024. And I relinquish the soap box. Who's next? -- Ruthless

There will of course be thunderous applause when Comrade Hillary Obama receives the nomination at the next Democratic National Convention. And I don't doubt that there will be thunderous applause should Comrade Hillary Obama actually be elected.

And I simply can't imagine there not being thunderous applause when the long knives finally come out and the opponents of socialism, such as Mark (Urbin) and myself, are lined up along a ditch and shot.

re: #34 abolitionist

I'm from Pa. Haven't heard anything on this. Ya gotta link?

This has been many years in the making. Leftist media have been redefining free speech for two generations; making it an article of faith, for instance, that criticism of or disagreement with a leftist celebrity is an abridgment of the celebrity's rights. Leftist speech codes, defining political opposition and legitimate discourse as "hate speech," have similarly come to be taken for granted in the business and academic worlds. What could more natural, then, for the media faithful to accept that telling "lies" about a leftist candidate is racist and illegal?

These Mizzou sheriffs and prosecutors are elected officials, probably owing their positions to ACORN ballot-stuffing and other fascist tactics, but they are accountable nevertheless. If they attempt to use their positions to prosecute, threaten, or harrass anyone who publishes material with which they disagree, they should be arrested by federal marshals and prosecuted for civil rights violations.
Similarly, the ACORN organization is a criminal conspiracy to violate election laws and should be prosecuted under the RICO statutes.

Another reason most in the military can not stand B-HO is who he has as one of his military "advisors" - one retired AF General Merrill "Tony" McPeak, who is likely to be B-HOs first pick as his SecDef.

Believe me, you do NOT want to see this buffoon in that role! What he did to the AF in the '90s as the Air Force JCS rep is shameful, scandalous, and pure bullshit. He is the one that combined the commands SAC, TAC, MAC, etc, and did what is probably the worst thing to happen to the AF since its inception in 1947. He is a PC disaster.

Oh, but he gave the AF snazzy new uniforms, too "PUKE!" ...what a friggin' waste!

McPeak is even worse than you know. I once had the displeasure of working in the same organization with him for a year. Until I enountered him, I had thought that "Catch-22" was fiction.

But he goes beyond merely kooky -- he is a throughly nasty specimen.

First please listen to this video (ya gotta go through a 15 second commercial) [Link: gatewaypundit.blogspot.com...]

Then y'all should know that Typicalwhitey had the brass to send this to: three other TV Stations, radio stations, the McCain Campaign Headquarters, her Governor and her Senators and Congresscritters.
It's apparently now on Drudge and I have had the distinct privilege of making some suggestions to Typicalwhitey about these District Attorneys and Sheriff's offices who are going to act as Obama Truth Squads. The Governor of Missouri, about 4 hours or so after Typicalwhitey sent the above video link to his office, issued a STRONG statement condemning this activity. I'm hoping that the FBI and/or the FEC to whom Typicalwhitey also wrote, will be investigating and perhaps suspending those D.A.'s and Sheriff's from their jobs.

This is hardly surprising. The left has always coddled terrorists, dictators and other forms for human scum. The left has never believed in free speech or rights, unless you are a terrorist, pedophile or murderer of course. Leftist brownshirts routinely attempt to shout down those who they disagree with, be it at a live event featuring a conservative speaker, or on the internet.

In accordance with this leftist, fascist ploy coming from a failed community worker and his thuggish comrades, I believe that Obama should be reported to the authorities in Missouri, because virtually everytime he opens his mouth, he tells more untruths, distortions and outright lies.

Now waiting for the defense of "But Republicans do this too!" or a similar justification over this.

Arrr! Afternoon mates! Hats off to Typical Whitey for his work getting the issue out in the open on the conservative blogs! A true patriot in every sense of the word! Did anyone who saw this video notice the idiocy of the reporter for refusing to ask some very basic questions to the DA's concerning first amendment rights of free speech, or that the Obama "truth squad" legal intimidation might have a chilling effect on free and open debate. If the McCain campaign was doing this same action with republican DA's and Sheriffs this would be top news and the media justifiably ripping McCain a new one. But we only hear nothing but suppressed information from the MSM. I truly despise or our "elite" MSM and the political bias of what passes as journalism nowadays. We saw all this in 2004, and its even worse this election cycle. HAAAAR! Hangem' in the highest yardarm and leavem' up for a week!

More fascist tactics from the Obama brownshirts carried out in the name of The One. But this is no surprise. From flooding calls to media outlets interviewing Stanley Kurtz and David Freddoso to threatening the suspension of broadcast licenses. Barry's shock troops, and an Obama Justice Department, will shred civil liberties and perceived political "enemies" on a scale never seen before in this country. And he wants us to pay for his brownshirts should he take office. Saith the Obamessiah:

We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded.

re: #164 pat

Gov. Matt Blunt today likened the intimidation to "police state tactics."

"St. Louis County Circuit Attorney Bob McCulloch, St. Louis City Circuit Attorney Jennifer Joyce, Jefferson County Sheriff Glenn Boyer, and Obama and the leader of his Missouri campaign Senator Claire McCaskill have attached the stench of police state tactics to the Obama-Biden campaign," said Blunt in a statement released today. "What Senator Obama and his helpers are doing is scandalous beyond words, the party that claims to be the party of Thomas Jefferson is abusing the justice system and offices of public trust to silence political criticism with threats of prosecution and criminal punishment."

A United States Senator endorsing police state tactics to silence free speech. Hang on to your hats, kids. This is going to be a long and wild ride.

However, if this does not make YOU try to do all you can to help elect John McCain, I don't know what will. A radical Socialist in the presidency, a Democratic House, a filibuster-proof Democratic majority in the Senate - curtailing all the main liberties of American citizens.

As I have written repeatedly, a McCain-Hillary election would not mean much. But the fact that this radical is candidate has turned this election in the most important since 1980: it is either McCain or the end of America as we know it.

It is time for the McCain people to take this to the mattresses! This is a political fight to the death with Obama. He asked us to fight with him, but he has got to fight back himself. I think he was good the other night and I expect him to really hit Obama with this bill in the next debates, but we need some hard hitting ads out here naming names with this kind of action from the Obama camp.

"Why give $700 billion to the banks and no money to the poor guys who lost their houses," Lula asked, according to local media. He referred to the troubled U.S. housing market.

Of course he doesn't like it. It doesn't give a free pass to the millions of illegal immigrants from Brazil who used fake documents to secure mortgages for homes they knew they could never afford to pay for.
