…that by voicing, you’ve made yours.

No you haven’t, not if you can’t explain why it’s your opinion. Not if you’re completely unable to defend your assertions once you get knocked off the script you’re reading off your computer screen. (Okay, that’s not entirely fair. Some of the callers might have printed it out.) You’re basically an unpaid actor. And not a very convincing one.

Oh, and I give it a month tops before the Republicans start doing the same “action gram” thing.

Well, according to you it’s perfectly fine. I think it stinks, though, and if they do it I’ll say so.

Ummmmm…YEAH.

Now, what about Obama threatening people with the Justice Department, not to be confused with the Justice Brothers.

Umm, writing a letter to the Justice Department asking them to investigate (alleged) Campaign Finance violations, isn’t the same thing as “threatening people with the Justice Department.” When was Obama put in charge of the JD? Or, like recipients of the email call in request, are they too helpless before his mind control powers?

What I’m arguing is Obama is following in the footsteps of America’s first Fascist President Woodrow Wilson.

Okay, feel free to argue that. I’m not going to argue that with you. (I will chuckle heartily at your silliness though.)

If you’re reading it off the official campaign website, and you’re unable to respond to followup questions because you haven’t really thought about it, it’s his opinion

…that by voicing, you’ve made yours.

And personally, it’s always a bad idea to proffer opinions you can’t back-up, especially when you’ve gone to the trouble to call into a radio show. I think it’s even a worse idea to send an email out asking your followers to do this, knowing full well that most responders won’t be able to do this, and will, in fact, look like utter tools when they try to.

But then no one asked me.

Oh, and I give it a month tops before the Republicans start doing the same “action gram” thing. Within a week of that, you’ll have Liberal bloggers complaining about it — and Conservative bloggers finding nothing wrong with it.

Unless you are arguing, Jim, that Obama has secret mind powers that he beams through email, turning people into zombies who’ll rob, steal, and speak only his thoughts?

He doesn’t need all of that. He just puts out an “Action Wire” that tells them what to say. Then they say it. And when asked to deviate from the script, they’re completely unable to.

You haven’t actually listened to the show in question, have you, Jody?

If you are calling in to a radio show and stating something, it’s your opinion.

If you’re reading it off the official campaign website, and you’re unable to respond to followup questions because you haven’t really thought about it, it’s his opinion.

he is exhorting them to shout down voices he does not wish to be heard.

See the above about shouting down a radio show.

Not their opinion. His opinion.

If you are calling in to a radio show and stating something, it’s your opinion. If you haven’t thought about it, or are just parroting a point you’ve read, you may be dumb, but if you’re mouthing it, it’s your opinion.

Unless you are arguing, Jim, that Obama has secret mind powers that he beams through email, turning people into zombies who’ll rob, steal, and speak only his thoughts? You do understand the difference between “reality” and “fantasy” right?

By asking people to call into a radio call-in show and voice their opinion.

Not their opinion. His opinion.

Now, I ask you, what kind of leader refuses to engage in debate, and seeks to shut down opposing points of view? There is nothing Democratic in what Obama is doing. He is not exhorting his followers to petition government for a redress of grievances, he is exhorting them to shout down voices he does not wish to be heard.

A-HA! Once again the mask falls off and we see what the Democrats are really upset about!

“Tonight, we have David Freddoso on our show discussing his new book. As we speak, thousands of Obama supporters are flooding our phone lines and e-mail boxes, just as they did for our show with Stanley Kurtz. An Obama Action Wire was sent out tonight to intimidate us into taking Freddoso off the air. ”

Gee… why would he think he was being intimidated?

this is how he tries to silince critics..

By asking people to call into a radio call-in show and voice their opinion. Gestapo tactics indeed.

==========

This man is runniing for President and this is how he tries to silince critics.. it’s disgraceful

…it was a hate-message to drum up hatred and contempt for the author of the book

No, calling up a radio station to complain about a guest isn’t “hate speech.” You can’t just make definitions up.

.. you try to destroy.

Project much or am I just special?
