Why The War On Obama?

[FOTD]

Robert Parry: "While some cynics still view Barack Obama's appeal for "change" as empty rhetoric, it's starting to dawn on Washington insiders that his ability to raise vast sums of money from nearly one million mostly small donors could shake the grip that special-interest money has long held over the U.S. government. This is about the people of America vs. the entrenched elite and their corporate backers. "

"In reality, the Obama flyers were pretty standard stuff, more from the playbook of Tom Paine than Karl Rove. If Rove's playbook were in use, the flyers would have claimed to come from a pro-Hillary group while advocating legalization of child pornography."

All the DC lobbyists will hate Barack in due time.

He's having to start the cleanup of a very dirty government. He won't be popular with the Sam Zells, Rupert Murdoch's, Krudlows, Pharmas, Oilies, etc.
