I would say for the same reason everyone is taking Palin to court in Alaska all of a sudden: Politics. Someone has something to gain. Any response I could give would be pure speculation. One could venture this Whistle Blower is a Democrat and doing it for his party. There's a million guesses. But why does stuff like this "randomly" show up during elections?<br>
I think the most basic of all questions is why can't candidates run on their own platforms (or speak for themselves) and not Defamation of Character?<br>~Lance<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Oct 25, 2008 at 5:06 AM, Discussion of the Good, Clean Funnies List <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gcfl-discuss@gcfl.net">gcfl-discuss@gcfl.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<div>It is the job of each campaign to play up facts which favor their cause. It
is also true that both campaigns play up myths, fables and doubtful insinuations
that favor their cause. If I were you, which I'm not, I would watch this
presentation, then see what snopes or fact-checker has to say about it, if
anything, then see if the McCain campaign has any response, then see what snopes
and fact-checker have to say about McCain's response. Or, google a few key words
from the presentation, and see what else is out there which confirms or
contradicts the presentation. Obviously, Obama is paying for this because they
think it will help elect him. Why did the man who tried to blow the whistle on
the Savings and Loan mess agree to make the presentation? Maybe he thinks there
is an untold story worth getting out.</div>

<div>I'm sorry Siarlys I cannot watch a "most thorough factual presentation"
on McCain when the site expressly reads = "Paid for by Obama for America".
Anything put out by one side or the other is jading and writing the facts to
reflect their agenda. IF this was third party or independant I'd be most eager
to listen to/read. But this is not... this is "Paid for by Obama for
America"<br>~Lance</div></blockquote></div></div></blockquote></div>
