Fuck me, but [nothing](http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/01/22/obama.madrassa/index.html) is beneath these people. Lie about everything, verify nothing, character assassination the order of the day. It never fucking stops, does it. And we’re still two years out. They must be scared to death that this guy might stand things on end, but fear-mongering on this basis is just beneath contempt. ---

Hey, it’s a two-fer – smear Hillary as well as Obama. Yep, this is going to be a nasty, nasty fight. I hope **luc** remembers to bring his brass knuckles. ---

[QUOTE=Chefguy] Fuck me, but [nothing](http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/01/22/obama.madrassa/index.html) is beneath these people.

They must be scared to death that this guy might stand things on end, but fear-mongering on this basis is just beneath contempt. [/QUOTE] My first reaction is to wonder who are “these people.” Usually, when I hear that used we’re talking about blacks, jews, or whatever group is being hatefully generalized about by the person doing the generalizing. It seems like we’re referring to “right-wing fucktards” in general and more specifically the ones at Insight magazine. This is the first I’ve heard of this “allegation,” if we can call it that, and I’m not familiar with “Insight Magazine.” Ok, here’s the story at Insight: > **[Accueil](https://www.insightmag.com/)** > > Bienvenue sur Insightmag.com, votre magazine d'actualité qui porte sur les dernières tendances de consommation qui influencent nos décisions. Quoting unnamed sources. I’m not a fan of that. I wasn’t a fan all the times that it happened when Right-Wingers were the target of the attack, and not a fan of it now. Here’s their response to the criticism: > **[Accueil](https://www.insightmag.com/)** > > Bienvenue sur Insightmag.com, votre magazine d'actualité qui porte sur les dernières tendances de consommation qui influencent nos décisions. I agree with the argument that unnamed sources get used a lot, but I don’t think that makes it right. Hmmmm. Okay, reading some more. Well. Okay, so they do like a bunch of right-wing fucktards, don’t they? I say that regardless of whether the story is accurate or not. I have no idea and I don’t really care. Obama does look to be Hillary’s opponent, and looking for dirt is de rigeur, so I woudn’t hold that against her team if it’s true, nor do I really care whether it was a public school or a Madrassa or whatever. Doesn’t make a lick of difference, IMO. I’m still trying to decide if Obama is the real deal or not. He **might** be. I hope say. Ok. Summarize. Clearly Insight is right-wing, and they do seem very tardish, and I guess the statement about “these people” is… fair in this context. I have no issues with this rant. ---

The amusing thing is that it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not. It’s like outing someone. Who cares? The denials only add fuel to the discussion, when the most expeditious thing to do would be ignoring it, especially something as easily debunked as this. ---

[/QUOTE] I, for one, was worried that the Republicans were going to stop giving advice to the Democrats. It relieves me to see that they are still so concerned about the best interests of the Democratic Party. And re the OP, how can the “pundits” still be pulling this Rushesque bullshit? > [@](#): > > Fox News executive Bill Shine told CNN “Reliable Sources” anchor Howard Kurtz that some of the network’s hosts were simply expressing their opinions and repeatedly cited Insight as the source of the allegations. Stating that Obama attended a strict Islamic school is not a fucking opinion. It’s either the truth or a lie. They’re lying. ---

You know what? My previous post was overly naive. How quickly I forget about how people care about the stupidest stuff and will believe anything they are told. Case in point: the smearing of John McCain in South Carolina in 2000. Silly me, being optimistic and all. I should really know better. ---
