David Freddoso At RWN

Right Wing News has just posted an interview with David Freddoso, author of “The case against Barack Obama.”

Did you know Barack Obama actually had his supporters try to call in and disrupt an interview David did with WGN-AM in Chicago? As David points out in the interview, there was one big problem with Obama’s strategy,

“The joke, by the way, was on his people because it was a pre-taped debate between an Obama supporter and me. I was already in Washington by the time all the calls started coming in…”

David also tells a fantastic and very revealing story about Obama’s first election,

What’s really interesting is how embarrassed he is by this. It’s to the point where he would write a fictional account of his own election in his memoir

“In the prologue to the The Audacity of Hope he talks about how he went around Chicago’s South Side, giving this speech about how people had been let down by politicians before, but don’t get cynical about politics. If we all work together for the common good and set aside our petty self interests, we can effect real, positive change. He said he didn’t know if people liked the speech as much as he did, but either way, they liked him and his youthful swagger enough that he made it to the Illinois legislature. Full stop there. That’s the story he tells, period.

That is a fictional account because what actually happened is that he threw all of his opponents off the ballot on technical grounds, by challenging all their petition signatures. He had his campaigners go in and do this. They would update him nightly on their progress and tell him how many voter’s signatures they disqualified and some of them were disqualified legitimately, some not…He threw an incumbent state senator off of the ballot. He threw all of no-chance candidates off the ballot, too, so he could run unopposed.

Yeah, well, so much is revealed already about Obama as fictional anymore…. Oh, never mind.
