Obama
Campaign Attacks Citizens By Name

The Obama
campaign has hit a new, all time low. Following in the steps of Richard
Nixon,
Obama has begun attacking citizens by name that chose to donate to his
opponent, Mitt Romney.
From the
Wall Street Journal:
This past
week, one of his campaign websites posted an item entitled “Behind the
curtain:
A brief history of Romney’s donors.” In the post, the Obama campaign
named and
shamed eight private citizens who had donated to his opponent.
Describing the
givers as all having “less-than-reputable records,” the post went on to
make
the extraordinary accusations that “quite a few” have also been “on the
wrong
side of the law” and profiting at “the expense of so many
Americans.”
These are
people like Paul Schorr and Sam and Jeffrey Fox, investors who the site
outed
for the crime of having “outsourced” jobs. T. Martin Fiorentino is
scored for
his work for a firm that forecloses on homes. Louis Bacon (a hedge-fund
manager), Kent Burton (a “lobbyist”) and Thomas O’Malley (an energy
CEO) stand
accused of profiting from oil. Frank VanderSloot, the CEO of a
home-products
firm, is slimed as a “bitter foe of the gay rights movement.”
These are
private, law abiding citizens being attacked by the most powerful man
in the
world. By exploiting FEC public records, they have stooped to a level
of
criminals and degenerates.
“We don’t
tolerate presidents or people of high power to do these things,” says
Theodore
Olson, the formerU.S.solicitor general. “When you have the power of the
presidency—the power of the IRS, the INS, the Justice Department, the
DEA, the
SEC—what you have effectively done is put these guys’ names up on
‘Wanted’
posters in government offices.”
The crimes
these people committed? Disagreeing with the President and his
policies. As
wealthy American businessmen, these gentlemen know firsthand how
damaging the
Obama Administration has been to our economy. Who knew it was a crime
to donate
to a GOP candidate?
