Comments on: Obama Sends out “Truth Squads” to Silence Free Speech http://americaswatchtower.com/2008/09/29/obama-sends-out-truth-squads-to-silence-free-speech/ I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power, than by violent and sudden usurpations.

McSame’s ads are not “misleading” (note the quotes, which imply the criticism of the ads is unfair) — they are actually misleading (the criticisms of the misleading ads is valid). Any candidate has the right to use any and all legal resources to combat the character assassination, slander, libel, and outright lies which the pathetic Republican Dirty Tricks Machine is spewing like so much sewage.

Will you uninformed chatterboxes please learn the definition of Socialism and stop using words you don’t understand? Obama is a Capitalist — the presidential nominee of the Socialist Party in America (there actually is one, in case you forgot) says so.

Truth is if the ad actually speaks truth then its not a lie so what is wrong with stopping lying ads. Would you want someone running lying ads about you or your canidate?

Freedom of speech is fine but misleading people to the truth is a border line fraud.
