Obama Should Come Clean On Ayers, Rezko And the Iraqi Billionaire

by John Fund - August 30th, 2008 - The Wall Street Journal

Even as Barack Obama gave his soaring speech Thursday night, his campaign was playing hardball with its critics.

Team Obama has launched an offensive against WGN, the Chicago Tribune's radio station, for interviewing Stanley Kurtz. Mr. Kurtz is a conservative writer who this week forced the University of Illinois to finally open its records on Sen. Obama's association with William Ayers, the unrepentant 1970s Weather Underground terrorist.

This is incredible. Barack Obama has stymied and obfuscated on serious issues about his background. There is still no valid birth certificate that proves he is an American citizen and his campaign refuses to allow the State of Hawaii to provide the one that is supposed to be in their files. He has blocked access to the Chicago Annenberg Challenge records to investigate the extent of his ties to Bill Ayers, the America hating Marxist whose home was the location of the fund raiser that launched Obama's career. Latest amazing example of the constant cover up? Obama's application to practice law along with his test to pass the bar are "missing".

However the press is all over the fact that Sarah Palin wanted a state trooper, divorced from her sister, fired after he threatened to kill her father. This is a serious problem but Obama's missing records and connection to radical extremists is simply ignored by the Obama adoring MSM. Obama has become so confident that he can get away with anything that they are now pressuring anyone who dares to criticize Obama.
