Obama Uses Intimidation Tactics Against Blogger!

The Fuhrer strikes again.

I have already told you about the blogger who was summoned to the White House due to his You Tube videos that are critical of Barack Obama.

But there is more here, and there is some background info that brings it all into perspective.

And that is the subject of my column today at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

I want to keep this story before the reading public, and you can help me tremendously by clicking on the link to my column above. Thanks!

ALERT! OBAMA TOSSES SKEPTICAL REPORTERS

In a special alert this morning, Matt Drudge is reporting that Barack Obama has tossed from his plane reporters from 3 major newspapers that endorsed John McCain--the Dallas Morning News, the New York Post, and the Washington Times.

As of Sunday reporters from the 3 newspapers will no longer be allowed on the Obama campaign aircraft.

The move is supposedly to 'make way for those minority news outlets that will emphasize Obama's election from the angle of being the first Black man chosen for the Presidency.'

But media watchers say that the move is retaliatory.

Obama wants only those members of the media that are 'sympathetic' to his cause.

Interestingly, one of the newcomers to the Obama plane will be ultra-Leftist New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd. Readers may remember that Dowd referred to avid Obama opponents as part of an 'angry mob.'

The Chairman Retaliates, Punishes

It was like a soothing, life-giving breath of cool, fresh air in a stagnant desert. For once during this campaign, Barack Obama and Joe Biden were actually challenged by a serious journalist.

But there was a price for to be paid for daring fly in the face of Chairman Ba-O and his cheerleader underling, Joe Biden. The Chairman retaliated and punished the station.

The interview was conducted by Barbara West of Orlando, Florida's WFTV-Channel 9.

According to a report in the Orlando Sentinel, West dared to ask Biden what millions of ordinary Americans have been wondering since Obama made the now-infamous statement to Joe the Plumber, 'We have to spread the wealth around.'

Is Barack Obama a Marxist?

West read an excerpt from Marx that shows the concept of redistribution of wealth is a Marxist-Communist concept.

Biden went to the brink of Bedlam over the question, wondering if it were a joke and then hinting a threat to the reporter by asking, 'Where did you get these questions?'

But he never answered the simple question.

What did happen, however, is retaliation and punishment from the Obama campaign office.

WFTV was contacted by the Obama campaign to state that they were being 'cut off' from access to Obama and Biden, and that there would be no more cooperation from the Obama machine.

If this were an isolated incident in the midst of a long and arduous campaign, it could well be explained as an unfortunate overreaction on the part of Obama and Biden.

But the problem is that this has been an ongoing problem with a campaign headed by a candidate that is obviously so hyper-sensitive to any criticism or challenge that he must threaten, retaliate, and punish when a reporter dares ask a question that makes him uncomfortable.

And this mode of operation is not reserved for just reporters. As Joe the Plumber found out, even an average citizen who challenges Chairman Ba-O may well find himself the victim of privacy violations and a concerted effort on the part of political operatives in government to ruin his/her life.

Obama has made it a practice of threatening TV stations that run McCain campaign ads that are critical of him.

The level of paranoia in this campaign is frightening for the country. As we know about paranoia, the one who believes they are being attacked will relentlessly and without provocation attack the perceived 'enemy.'

Apparently, Barack Obama thinks he has lots of enemies among the news media and the citizens at large.
