Obama: Get in their face
Barack Obama has decided it was time to just end the facade of his new brand of politics. He has told his supports to argue and get in the face of those who disagree with him.
“I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face.”
In addition, he is telling supporters to call radio stations to get all dissent canceled from the airwaves.
The campaign says supporters sent roughly 100,000 e-mails in August to stations that aired the ad, which criticized Obama for his ties to former 1960s radical William Ayers.
WGN also was flooded with calls and e-mails shortly before and during an Aug. 27 interview with Stanley Kurtz, a conservative writer who has examined Obama’s ties to Ayers.
This has happened twice now to the same radio station (WGN - Chicago):
It is the second time in recent weeks the station has been the target of an “Obama Action Wire” alert to supporters of the Illinois Democrat.
Monday night’s target was David Freddoso, who the campaign said was scheduled to be on the station from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m. Chicago time.
Other instances where Obama and the Democrats have tried to limit the free speech of other who disagree with him:
