Obamas Negative Mail Falseley Attack Hillary - Obama swiftboating and lying

[agdlp]

This morning on NBC Today, Sen. Obama claimed that "throughout this campaign, the tone that I’ve set has been a positive one." But just today, we came across the latest example of Sen. Obama attacking Hillary: a direct mail piece Sen. Obama released in North Dakota that’s full of misleading, negative attacks on Hillary.

One: the Obama campaign mail piece alleged that Hillary was a strong supporter of NAFTA



This is false. Sen. Obama and his campaign have been misquoting and misrepresenting Hillary's views on NAFTA for weeks. The Newsday piece cited simply asserts what Hillary "thinks" without any substantiation. The other citation simply notes that NAFTA was approved in the 1990s.

Two: the Obama campaign mail piece alleged that Hillary was the only campaign who raised money from Washington lobbyists.



Sen. Obama doesn't tell you that he has raised money from:

Three: the Obama mail piece alleged that Sen. Obama stood up to credit card companies:

1. Not the 1st or even 2nd time the Obama campaign has been caught playing fast & loose with clippings.

2. Strange he would say this because...

he himself has been friendly to the concept of free-trade too.
Seems hypocritical Mr. Obama.

3. Didn't he just vote for the Peru trade deal?

So did Hillary....

not much difference there.

4. "Swiftboating" by telling the truth, huh?

That must be hard to take.

[AtomicKitten]

5. The truth stings but it is lame to compare it to swift-boating.

I see your OP is derived from hillaryhub so that explains the whining.

6. Sigh... not "swift boating" which is a specific term

Typical campaign apparent hypocrisy, perhaps.

"Swift Boating", no

Sure would be great if some here would learn the actual definitions of the terms they throw about.

7. How I know Obama is winng....

the increase in flamebait bullshit threads like this.

Keep 'em coming, Hillarites! They just make our case stronger.
