34. +1, 000. Same thing they did, mailed millions of free DVDs of 'Obssession' to scare people...

And the only way to overcome the crazy is to get a massive turnout, as good as 2008. We can't take our eyes off this, because the ones backing these smears won't take their eyes off, either. This what they did last time and will do again:

Obsession: Radical Islam's War Against the West


The unusual distribution of 28 million free Obsession DVDs as an insert in over 70 newspapers predominantly in swing states before the United States 2008 presidential election, garnered much attention, with 5 newspapers refusing to distribute the DVD. National Public Radio reported that it was unclear as to who funded Clarion's distribution of the DVD.[3]

It was financed by this group, see the ties:

Clarion Fund

Of course, the next war on the list, Iran:
