Smearing Obama. The Divide And Conquer Strategy. Hillary Clinton, brilliant, but ruthless.

First, did you check out the flaming headlines, claiming Edwards and Obama would invade Pakistan this morning? Check out this piece from a NY paper.

Edwards Says He'd Attack Targets In Pakistan

I found another "article" from India. That's what the Republicans do. They post smears and press releases in foreign papers and wait for the national media to pick their "stories" up to present them as news to the unknowing public. Then the pundits on both sides act their parts. (I can back this up, however, I'll have to leave the claim unfounded for now.)

The next smear I encountered today was a smear on Obama on Mydd, detailing the actions of one of Obama's staff members, Robert Gibbs. Gibbs was the spokesman of the team that smeared Howard Dean. THEY LEFT OUT THE WHOLE STORY.
Here is the complete story.

As The Washington Post reported on Feb. 11, a group called Americans for Jobs & Healthcare spent $500,000 on ads attacking Dean in the run-up to the primaries. The Post said the group was headed by David Jones, a longtime adviser to Gephardt. It said the group's spokesman was Robert Gibbs, who had previously been working for the Kerry campaign. And where did the money come from? According to the Post, disgraced former Senator Robert Torricelli of New Jersey, a Kerry supporter, gave $50,000.

REASON TO SCREAM. Other money, according to the Post, came from Alan Patricof, a Clark fund-raiser, and Bernard Schwartz, chairman of Loral Corp. Schwartz is a longtime moneybag for the Democratic Establishment who had close ties to the Clinton Administration. One ad the group ran questioned Dean's foreign policy expertise and used an image of Osama bin Laden.

I'm so angry, I could scream. AGHHHHHHHHH. What a double standard.  ¶ 6:40 PM
