Obama Campaign squashing dissent part 2

September 26, 2008
By

Apparently, the Obama campaign has recruited law enforcement in Missouri to “to target anyone who lies or runs a misleading television ad during the presidential campaign.”

They’re even calling them “Truth Squads”.

I can’t make this stuff up, people.  Don’t believe me?  Here’s the video.

As we enter the proverbial “home stretch” of this election, it seems that Barack Victory at any Cost Obama has decided that suppressing the 1st Amendment and further eviscerating the constitution sounds like a really awesome way to win an election.

    “Truth Squads”? Do they have any idea how Orwellian that sounds?

    So let me get this straight: some of the same people who go into apoplectic rage at the mere thought that the Ebil Bush Administration might want to listen in on their phone calls to unidentified folks in garden spot countries like Libya, Pakistan, and Iran are perfectly okay with a presidential candidate recruiting prosecutors and sheriffs to bring legal action against anyone who lies about their candidate!?!

    You’d think the connotative dissonance here would be causing heads to explode like firecrackers in blue-state hotspots around the country, but based on how quiet it’s been, apparently not.

    I’d love to hear or read some liberals’ defense of this.

    Everything I know to be true has just been turned on its ear! Up is down! Black is white! Dogs and cats, living together…

    Truth squads? Hey, I bet they have nifty uniforms and cool arm bands.

    I’m sure after the election he’ll create the Cabinet-level “Department of Truth”.
