Radical! Leftist! Socialist!

Jerome Robert Corsi, Ph.D. has struck again. You may know him as the former Constitution Party presidential nominee, author of such gems as The Late Great U.S.A.: The Coming Merger with Mexico and Canada and Showdown with Nuclear Iran: Radical Islam's Messianic Mission to Destroy Israel and Cripple the United States, or perhaps as columnist for WorldNetDaily, which, two days after September 11th, opined the following nuggets in one fantastic article:
However you know him, he has published his second attack book in as many election cycles: The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality. "The play on words is fully intended," he assures us. (Thanks, Jerry)
It will, unsurprisingly, debut at the top of the New York Times bestseller list, and is best-selling book #8 on Amazon.com (where you can buy it, along with Fleeced: How Barack Obama, Media Mockery of Terrorist Threats, Liberals Who Want to Kill Talk Radio, the Do-Nothing Congress, Companies That Help Iran, and Washington Lobbyists for Foreign Governments Are Scamming Us ... and What to Do About It for only $31.57 today!)
Of course, anObama attack book important "piece of scholarship" (quoth the editor, Mary Matalin) such as Obama Nation shouldn't be concerned with something so ephemeral and subjective as truthiness, should it? Of course not.
Perhaps you'd like to know about Corsi'splagiarized other writings, his views not related to slinging mud at Democratic politicians?
No, you really wouldn't, but if you insist:
Sound like a guy you might want to, as they say, have a beer with? Go ahead and ask!
- "Muslims might not be irrational when they consider America to be akin to Satan"
- "Is New York the head of the 'Great Satan'? All that is evil in the world can be found in New York: MTV, the United Nations, the U.N. abortion programs, the Council on Foreign Relations, New Age Church of St. John the Divine, Wall Street greed, Madison Avenue manipulation and of course more confirmed AIDS cases than the rest of America combined. Let's remember the filthy sodomite gay parade last summer in New York. Let's remember all the New York politicians falling all over themselves to praise this sick spectacle."
- "And let's not forget that New Yorkers elected--by a landslide--the openly Marxist, treasonous and abortion-mongering, occultic Hillary to a Senate seat."

No, you really wouldn't, but if you insist:
- on the NAU: "President Bush intends to abrogate U.S. sovereignty to the North American Union, a new economic and political entity which the President is quietly forming, much as the European Union has formed."^
- on Islam: "a worthless, dangerous Satanic religion"^
- "Islam is like a virus -- it affects the mind -- maybe even better as an analogy -- it is a cancer that destroys the body it infects"^
- on...?: "Isn't the Democratic Party the official SODOMIZER PROTECTION ASSOCIATION of AMERICA -- oh, I forgot, it was just an accident that Clintoon's first act in office was to promote "gays in the military." RAGHEADS are Boy-Bumpers as clearly as they are Women-Haters -- it all goes together."^
- On FreeRepublic.com, Corsi has, among other things, said that "ragheads" are "boy buggers"; referred to "John F*ing Kerry"; called Senator Hillary Clinton a "Fat Hog"; referred to her daughter as "Chubby Chelsie" Clinton; referred to Janet Reno as "Janet Rhino"; called Katie Couric "Little Katie Communist"; suggested Kerry was "practicing Judaism"; and expressed the wish that a small plane that had crashed into a building in Los Angeles had instead crashed into the set of NBC'S The West Wing, thereby killing actor Martin Sheen.^

I would assert that Dr. Corsi is stupid. Further, I would argue, it can be said that he has a butt for a face. Is he also a noob, as many have claimed? This is speculation, and not for me to address.

"John Kerry is launching a website, Truth Fights Back, to defend Obama and other Democratic candidates against attacks.posted by ericb at 10:37 AM on August 13, 2008
The site, paid for by his leadership PAC, goes after the '80 lies'in a new book by Jerome Corsi, whose 2004 attack on Kerry's military record helped sink the Democrat's campaign, but whose Obama book seems likely to remain on the margins this year.
Kerry writes in an e-mail going out shortly to his (massive) list:Pick up the New York Times this morning and read the headline: 'Book on Obama Hopes to Repeat Anti-Kerry Feat'
Yes, Jerome Corsi, the right wing fringe author who made his bones smearing the Catholic Church and lying about my military record, is back atop the best-seller list with an anti-Obama book chock full of lies.
If your blood isn't boiling yet, read this: 'This is a fact: Today Barack Obama is subject to what is probably the greatest concentrated attacks of smears, lies and innuendo in the lifetime of anyone who reads these words.'"*
And we're giving him all this attention and FPP real estate because.....

Because the last time this guy took a massive steaming dump on a Presidential candidate, the "hold back and truth will out" strategy completely failed, and the person that should have been elected was unfairly tarred by lies that people that knew better did not vociferously denounce.
Because chilling out and saying "hey, don't worry about it, people don't really read this stuff" does nothing to address the Fox-Newsing and lazy journalism that propagates lies. If 2004 taught anyone anything, it's that this sort of bullshit needs to be smacked down fast, and smacked down hard on message boards, in op/ed columns, on television and on the streets, by debunking this shinola to your relatives and circulating e-mails to friends.
Because ignorance wins when knowledge is too busy being disdainful to speak up.

Or is he naive and shiny like Britney Spears, or is he a manipulative Chicago operative. Oh wait, maybe he's going to tax us all to the bread line, or maybe he's going to give away too many tax breaks to seniors.

This sort of thing is not only predictable, but was predicted by several liberal commentators. The Republican party has for quite some time now [1] been working on the assumption that the most vicious and vile attacks they can make are their only chance for victory. Limbaugh, Coulter and their ilk are both the soul and leading lights of the Republican party [2].
However due to the changes of the 1960's they can't actually come out and say "Obama is a nigger so you shouldn't vote for him." So the upper level Republican spokestypes use coded language to imply that without outright saying it.
Thus we got: Obama wasn't born in America! Obama didn't register for the draft! Obama has dual citizenship with Kenya! Obama is a Muslim! Etc. Even the so-called liberal media has chimed in, and we get idiot talking heads complaining that "ZOMG Obama vacations in Hawaii, that isn't American enough!"
All of it, essentially, boils down to "Obama is a nigger and you shouldn't vote for him".
But it gets better. Since the Republican party depends on voter suppression to win elections, we've been seeing a growing meme that *ANY* sort of political participation is inherently fascistic.
So now we have a book linking the two big Republican party memes, resulting in: "ZOMG if you vote for that nigger you're a fascist!" That such a book would be published, and then discussed and promoted ad nauseam by the Republican talking heads, is as inevitable as gravity.
Obviously that kind of tripe has a certain appeal, otherwise the books wouldn't be selling. However I hold out hope that the appeal is limited. Racist attacks have been producing ever diminishing returns, especially once outright racism became verboten and they had to fall back to dogwhistles and coded language. And I'd like to hope that enough of my fellow Americans have gotten past that crap.
The idea that political participation == fascism, now that's worrisome to me. We've already seen Republican spokespeople, on national television, stating that Obama is like Hitler and no one has blinked. The meme that popularity, charisma, and likability are somehow inherently evil is not particularly questioned, much less attacked, by the talking heads, and that seems more important than the efforts of the Republican party to make this election about race.
[1] Even before Clinton, but that era did seem to produce a surge.
[2] I keep emphasizing "Republican Party" because there are, I sincerely hope anyway, people who vote Republican who haven't wholly bought into this notion.
