Have you actually read the 40 page rebuttal? I just finished.
The biggest thing I got out of reading it, was "Corsi is a bigoted liar". With only a few presentations of proof, or denials of the claims presented. Although they do provide some interesting "it depends on the meaning of the word is is" arguments.
quote:
LIE: “As fully expected, the Obama campaign continued to maintain Obama had never talked to Auchi, saying in effect that Levine had committed perjury.” Reality:
“Mr Auchi’s lawyer told the Standard:‘As far as he can remember he has had no direct contact with Mr Obama."
LIE: “Obama could offer no explanation of why Rita Rezko bought the vacant lot instead…” Reality:
Obama was asked, “Did he ever
explain to you what he was doing?” Obama replied, “No. I didn’t discover it until the issue of him purchasing
this lot broke through, uh, through you.”
They did answer some other things though, and it is about what I would expect from a politician. I think the funniest one was their explanation about not knowing what Bill Ayers position was, the defense of the point that Obama had to know what Ayers stand was, is that the NY Times article published on 9/11/01 was based on an interview before 9/11.
quote:
REALITY: AYERS COMMENTS WERE PUBLISHED ON SEPTEMBER 11; THE INTERVIEW
OCCURRED PRIOR TO PUBLICATION
On September 11, 2001, A Story About William Ayers’ Memoir Was Published In The New York Times;
The Interview Occurred Prior To Publication. “‘I don’t regret setting bombs,’ Bill Ayers said. ‘I feel we
didn’t do enough.’ Mr. Ayers, who spent the 1970’s as a fugitive in the Weather Underground, was sitting in the
kitchen of his big turn-of-the-19th-century stone house in the Hyde Park district of Chicago.”
All of the smear out there needs to be taken with a grain of salt, the Republican smear machine and the Democrat smear machines are going to be in high gear over the next couple of months, so do some research for yourselves. Taking things at face value, from either camp is a good way to lose a sense of perspective of the truth. BOTH SIDES ARE GOING TO FLOOD US WITH GARBAGE. Edited to fix the formatting of quotes...
