Larry Sinclair Radio Interview

Here's an interview that Larry Sinclair did with Jeff Rense - MP3.

A bit about Rense, since I don't want anyone thinking I buy into his worldview. Jeff Rense's website and show is very popular with the conspiracy set, and it tends towards anti-semitism on the Israel issue and with regards to the Holocaust. But the MP3 contains a pretty decent interview in that Rense tries to pin Sinclair down on the details of the encounter with Obama.

From the interview we learn that Sinclair claims to have stayed at the Comfort Inn and Suites in Gurney, IL. He also claims to have been a member of the Choice Hotels frequent guest program. Some other sites have tracked down the fact that the Choice Hotels program didn't begin until after he claims to have stayed there, but I think there was a precursor program that probably turned into the present program. I will check on that and let you know when I find out.

Again, I have no idea if Sinclair is telling the truth, but I'm frustrated that the mainstream media is not asking the questions of Sinclair, Obama, etc. This is a man putting his face forward and making an accusation of drug use (Crack) and essentially sex with a stranger - two behaviors that would be undesirable in a presidential candidate. Hopefully Sinclair can be discredited or else the whole nomination process gets discredited. But if Sinclair is telling the truth, then the Democrats can better focus their attention on Hillary and Edwards and not waste any more money or time on Obama if he can't possibly be in the running.

One weird note - Rense did post a "press release" yesterday on the website and then it was revoked. Either he is unwilling to go out on a limb with Sinclair or he wants the interview to speak for itself. Anyway, when I see Drudge carry the story, then I'll know that the mainstream press either has reported on it, or someone inside a major news organization believes the case to be credible enough to pass along to Drudge despite editorial nixing of the story...

Did it ever cross your mind that maybe he's wanting his 15 min of fame? You people chap my hide! Don't you also think the media and all the other crazy people out there haven't dissected Obama's life inside and out? What planet are you on? No wonder this world is in such a crappy state. You have the nerve to actually write that you are not trying to "smear" anyone. Give me a break.
Here we are trying to change the path America has been in for the last "35" years and you feed into this garbage.
If you want the truth, there are 1,000's of websites where you can find the "truth" about Obama. I guess you'd rather have a sexual deviate and a corrupt first lady in the White House.

Jeff Rense is a Ron Paul supporter. Larry Sinclair is a Ron Paul supporter. All the people who are making websites just to spread this laughable nonsense are Ron Paul supporters!

Here's a link that debunks this craziness: http://dearmurray.com/why-are-ron-paul-supporters-working-so-hard-to-defame-obama/

Can crazy people make false allegations against famous ones?

Gee, let’s ask Tucker Carlson and John Fund - hardly standard-bearers for the liberal media - since they were both falsely acccused of sexual improriety by two DIFFERENT crazy people. Look it up.

Type in either one of their names and the word “rape” into Google and you’ll see it for yourself.

Any loon can make a charge against someone.

As Carlson said, it used to be that when a sex scandal broke, if the actual charge wasn’t true, at least something was - the candidate or person accused did something sexual.

Then he was accused of rape in Louisville by some woman. He spent thousands of dollars not only proving he wasn’t there at the time of the alleged rape - but also that he had never been to Louisville in this entire life!!!!

Perhaps the standard of accuracy in a major media-story should be a little higher than a self-recorded You Tube video, a self-respresented case filed in Federal Court (which would accept my lawsuit against the moon for shining too bright - if I had the filing fee) and interviews by people who’s blogs make Oliver Stone movies look like recorded bits of actual history.

Come on!
