Obama’s ‘Attack Watch’ not for the Strong of Mind
Gina Miller
As we dive into the campaign season leading up to the long, long awaited 2012 election, we are seeing an increasingly desperate communist Left looking to keep Barack Obama in the White House. As we have already seen, there is no lie brazen enough that Obama and other members of the communist Democrat party are unwilling to tell it with a straight face.
So, it is no surprise that we now have a website that looks like some kind of lying propaganda machine resurrected from the old Soviet Union and updated with modern technology. The website, which was created by Obama for America is called Attack Watch, and it claims to be about fighting “attacks” and “smears” against Barack Obama. Readers are encouraged to sign up for the feeds and to report any “attack” or “smear” on Obama that they come across anywhere in the media, on the Internet, and even in emails—yes, in personal emails.
From the Obama for America site is this teaser
for Attack Watch,
“We’ve launched a new campaign resource today: AttackWatch.com.
If you’re worried about the increasing negativity of the attacks on President Obama and his record, now’s your chance to fight back with the facts. Visit AttackWatch.com to learn the truth about frequent smears, track new attacks as they happen, and report false allegations you’ve seen or heard.
We’ve heard it all since 2008, from lies about the Affordable Care Act to false rumors that the Obama administration hasn’t been an ally to Israel. These aren’t just unfounded allegations about the President—they’re attempts to derail the momentum of this movement and undermine everything we’ve accomplished together in the last three years.
Check out AttackWatch.com to help stop these attacks before they start.”
Oh, they had better believe we are most certainly hoping with all our might to derail the hell-born momentum and turn back all the “accomplishments” of the Obama administration!
When visiting the Attack Watch website, the reader, like Alice, is yanked down the rabbit hole and thrust into twisted adventures in Wonderland, where up is down, black is white and the truth is a lie. The discerning reader easily determines that what these people mean by “attacks” and “smears” is simply anyone telling the truth about the disaster for America that is called Barack Obama.
Since the site is just now getting started, there are only a handful of “attacks” listed with so-called “facts” that purport to debunk them. At the top, Glenn Beck is called out for his opinion that the Obama administration has betrayed Israel, one of our greatest allies. Now, let’s see about that.
When you go to Attack Watch’s “fact” page on Obama and Israel, the claim in large type at the top says,
“President Obama is a friend to Israel, despite unfounded claims to the contrary.”
Unfounded claims to the contrary? Is that so?
For “proof,” Attack Watch provides a few quotes, including one from Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak saying that he “can hardly remember a better period of support” for Israel than under the Obama administration. Yet, in an Associated Press news story from April 2010, the very same Ehud Barak is quoted as saying,
“But we also shouldn’t delude ourselves. The growing alienation between us and the United States is not good for the state of Israel.”
Boy, that’s a head-scratcher, isn’t it? U.S.support for Israel has never been better, and there’s a growing alienation between us?
So, what’s the reality here? Let us not forget the truth of Obama’s actions, which speak much louder than a strange sound bite from someone hoping to curry favor with the thuggish Obama administration.
Obama has treated Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu despicably on Mr. Netanyahu’s visits to America. Obama has expressed his support for the Palestinians over Israel in his outrageous and insane demand that Israel give up its own land and return to its pre-1967 borders, which would leave Israel completely vulnerable to attack by its enemies. Obama has inserted his nose into Israel’s business by stupidly demanding that Israel not build new homes on its own land. How dare he make such a wicked demand?
As we can already see, Attack Watch is not for the strong of mind, but it is perfectly suited for the dwindling population of Obots—Obama robots.
What else does this website have in defense of the indefensible record of Barack Obama?
Here’s one. Attack Watch states,
“Public figures have made outlandish claims that President Obama is planning to use a United Nations treaty to take away legal firearms from gun owners in the US.”
Outlandish claims? Really?
Pardon me, but the Obama administration announced its support for the United Nations Small Arms Treaty, which would end up, as the Washington Times reported,
“…making it more difficult – if not outright illegal – for law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms.
… This U.N. treaty will lead to more gun control in America.
… The U.N. Small Arms Treaty opens a back door for the Obama administration to force through gun control regulations. Threats to the Second Amendment are as real today as ever.”
But, any Small Arms Treaty that comes out of the United Nations Office of Disarmament poses absolutely no threat to our Second Amendment rights according to Obama’s Attack Watch!
Perhaps the Obama administration is also hoping we will all get a collective case of amnesia and forget to remember the ongoing horrific scandal of the Fast and Furious gunrunner project which has seen U.S.government-provided weapons used by Mexican drug gangs to kill our own border agents and many Mexican citizens. This is an abominable program that no doubt has its origins at the highest level in our government.
Here is yet another criminal scandal for which the Teflon Obama administration will probably not be held accountable, and which is a transparent scheme to tear down our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms.
“The point [of Fast and Furious] is to create a false idea—with false statistics to back it up—that American guns are the ‘problem’ and a large contributing factor to the animalistic violence near the Mexican border. The further purpose is to cause such violent chaos, which will spill over into the U.S.—as it has already—that American citizens and lawmakers will be duped and scared into believing that even more gun control legislation is necessary to curb the gun violence in Mexico and bleeding into America.
This is nothing more than yet another attempt by the communist Left to grab our guns. It is also one of the more despicable things I have ever seen from our government, and that’s saying a lot in light of the truly terrible things we have seen from Washington in recent years. The investigation into this matter could reveal that our own government and agencies conspired to use millions of taxpayer dollars to put guns in the hands of maniac drug gang members in Mexico, knowing full well that those guns would be used to kill Mexican and American citizens.”
And, let’s not forget Obama and his administration’s claims that they are working on gun control “under the radar,” by possibly using executive order actions.
Attack Watch naturally attempts to lie about the so-called “Affordable Care Act” or Obamacare, as it’s commonly known. The website makes this outrageous claim,
“The Affordable Care Act promotes quality, affordable health coverage for all Americans, regardless of the industry they work in or their union status.”
It is amazing that anyone would still believe socialized medicine—which is what Obamacare is—is better than our current medical system, even with all the fraud that occurs in the government-run Medicare and Medicaid programs. Where in the world does socialized medicine result in “quality, affordable” health care for all people? In truth, there is nothing good that can come from the monstrous Obamacare legislation.
RedState lays it out nicely in a column titled, “Ten Ways ObamaCare will Kill You.” The points are that Obamacare will kill jobs, kill choice, kill innovation, inevitably result in rationing, cause taxes to skyrocket, kill fiscal responsibility, kill state government budgets by forcing higher Medicaid costs on states, kill the private sector health insurance industry, kill quality care from doctors by bureaucratizing the entire system and cutting quality to cut costs, and finally it will kill our freedom.
We can plainly see that Attack Watch is simply a new version of the Fight the Smears website, which has this Obama quote at the top of its page,
“What you won’t hear from this campaign or this party is the kind of politics that uses religion as a wedge, and patriotism as a bludgeon—that sees our opponents not as competitors to challenge, but enemies to demonize.”
As I said, Obama and the Democrats have never met a lie they were afraid to tell.
Another item to note is that Attack Watch is using material from George Soros’ “nonprofit” Media Matters for America organization. It is certainly not news that Media Matters is a highly political tool of the communist Left which clearly violates the federal requirements for a 501(c)(3) entity, which is what Media Matters is.
According to the Internal Revenue Service’s regulations,
“To be tax-exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, an organization … may not be an action organization, i.e., it may not attempt to influence legislation as a substantial part of its activities and it may not participate in any campaign activity for or against political candidates.”
Oh, but, when has this administration and its minions in Media Matters ever let the law get in their way?
Now that I have given you an overview of this new communesque Obama website and refuted a few of its lies, any Obot out there can use the handy link to Attack Watch—which is included in the transcript of this broadcast at Dakota Voice—to report this radio commentary to the White House Gestapo Attack Watch.
Thank you, and good morning, comrades!
