Ben smith has a post about the "video rumor" that has been discussed so many times here,
A reporter asked Obama about the tape and got the following.
"We have seen this before. There is dirt and lies that are circulated in e-mails and they pump them out long enough until finally you, a mainstream reporter, asks me about it," Obama said to the McClatchy reporter during a press conference aboard his campaign plane. "That gives legs to the story. If somebody has evidence that myself or Michelle or anybody has said something inappropriate, let them do it."
Obama just isnt going to give credit to this junk and I hope we wont do it any longer.
Obama said
"Frankly, my hope is people don’t play this game," Obama said. "It is a destructive aspect of our politics. Simply because something appears in an e-mail, that should lend it no more credence than if you heard it on the corner. Presumably the job of the press is to not to go around and spread scurrilous rumors like this until there is actually anything, an iota, of substance or evidence that would substantiate it."
I have been as curious about this as anyone and have looked at the offending website occasionally. But no more.
We need to starve this monster. Larry Johnson is making money off this garbage. No more...Obama says so...
I for now will stop looking and stop worrying about whether Obama will be brought down by these rumors.I never look at Fox news .
I hope that those in authority will monitor the sites as there have been threats against our nominee.
