I haven't bought anything I can trace to Simon & Shuster for years...and hopefully millions of others haven't as well. Now, fairness is a double-edged sword...what you feel is fair doesn't necessarily apply across the street...so who decides?
Since Obama is a public figure, he has to endure these attacks and his people long knew these were coming. Let's now see how they and the public react.
In some ways, we may benefit from this over-reach. Unlike '04, this screed is soley Corsi...he doesn't have a John O'Neill to hide behind. As you saw on Larry King the other night, this guy is a total hack and as more people see him the more he and his backers are exposed as being frauds...doing their cause more harm than good. My hopes are that the money Mellon-Scaiffes and Perrys and others who spent the money to buy up this toilet paper won't be going to local elections...and that they get to eat those books in the near future.
As the saying goes...the truth will set you free. The goal is to develop an alternative media...which is well underway...and build it to compete with the "old media". The ultimate victory is to win the battle of ideas and ideals by showing how fraudulent the right wing is. Right now, the best way for that to happen is for them to keep over-reaching and being exposed for the fraud and hypocrites they are using their own words and deeds.
