So what was this for, and who is it attributable to?

Obama wasn't vetted, assuming he was born in Hawaii (which I do, if he was born in Kenya the Clintons would have gotten the info out in 2008) he lied on his bio from his publisher for 16 years (1991-2007 as per archive.org) until he decided to run for president in 2007.

He is a person who lies about and hides his history and this episode says a lot of bad things about the type of he is. This episode shows how the MSM has no pretence of fairness and is a propaganda arm of the DNC.

For the most part the media took the scripted story and ran with that. We got lucky this time ... I would not like to take a chance on luck every time ... I would like to see the vetting process each and every time. There are more people out there with little track records in life - don't think some people would not try to manufacture a candidate in the future.

Remember we do not elect the President - the electoral college does but we can stop them from running if we get rid of them in a primary. Once they get by the primary anything can happen.
Icy, you're a reasonable guy, and you're clearly no partisan. So you're somebody I expect I can get a reasonable answer to when you make this claim: what evidence is there that he wasn't vetted? Why do you think past candidates were scrutinized to a greater degree than Obama was?

It's actually a pretty interesting opinion piece if you take the time to read it. The writer says he completely believes Obama was born in Hawaii, but the point is how Obama is almost a chameleon where he simply portrays himself in whatever way is most convenient at the time. If he's trying to sell books to limosine liberals, he pretends to be born in Kenya. If he needs to invent a girlfriend from 20 years ago to prove some sort of point, he invents a "composite." And the liberal media gladly gives him a free pass, especially in 2008.

Dring the 2008 campaign, we knew more about Bristol Palin's personal life than Barack Obama's.

"You're undoubtedly aware of the brouhaha stirred up by Breitbart about the erroneous statement in a client list Acton & Dystel published in 1991 (for circulation within the publishing industry only) that Barack Obama was born in Kenya. This was nothing more than a fact checking error by me -- an agency assistant at the time. There was never any information given to us by Obama in any of his correspondence or other communications suggesting in any way that he was born in Kenya and not Hawaii. I hope you can communicate to your readers that this was a simple mistake and nothing more."

This is simply preposterous, and is evidence of a very, very warped worldview.

Does Fox News belong in your categorization of the MSM, or not? And how 'bout the McCain campaign, the Clinton campaign, and the entire Republican apparatus? All reasonably well financed ventures, but yet all of these countervailing forces have yet to produce yet a single shred of actual evidence that the president isn't who he says he is. All you have left are gullible fools willing have the wool pulled over their eyes by people like Edward Klein, Jerome Corsi, Joseph Farah, etc. These guttersnipes are no different from the people who were certain the Clintons conspired to have Vince Foster killed, and as long as there are dimwits around willing to suspend their apprehension of reality, there will always be a market for this type of conspiracy-peddling nonsense.

I had to add that.

When the media wants info they find ways to get it. The media went mostly on what was written in his 2 books. It's not a case of he was bad or hiding dark secrets. It has been proven through discussion that he really wasn't vetted.

Let's just say the media has finally gotten around to questioning the content of the books - they just learned there was no girlfriend - she was made up. Any other candidate they would have sniffed that out earlier and fried him in the press for lying. There are other examples in the book where some is fact and some is fiction ... media ran with 100% of the book was non-fiction. In this day and age I find that amazing. Go through the election again ... all reported stuff on him was from the books and he wrote them ... then again some say he did not.

Also ... just for the record ... a little known fact. it was the democrats during the primary and not the republicans who initially questioned the BC. The democrats created the story - the MSM twisted it to a GOP nut job issue. MSM - they are good when they want to be.
