Where's the anti-Obama propaganda come from?

Well, in part, it comes from e-mail like the one I received this morning:

6. When he traveled to Pakistan , after college on an unknown national passport, people said it didn't matter.

7. When he sought the endorsement of the Marxist Party in 1996 as he ran for the Illinois Senate, people said it didn't matter.

8. When he sat in a Chicago Church for twenty years and listened to a preacher spew hatred for America and preach black liberation theology, people said it didn't matter.

24. When the place of his birth was called into question, and he refused to produce a birth certificate, people said it didn't matter.

40. When as President of the United States, he bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia, people said it didn't matter.

41. When he traveled around the world criticizing America and never once talking of her greatness, people said it didn't matter.

42. When his actions concerning the Middle-East seemed to support the Palestinians over Israel, our longtime ally, people said it didn't matter.

43. When he took American tax dollars to resettle thousands of Palestinians from Gaza to the United States, people said it didn't matter.

44. When he upset the Europeans by removing plans for a missile defense system against the Russians, people said it didn't matter.

49. When he took away student loans from the banks and put it through the government, people said it didn't matter.

50. When he designed plans to take over the health care system and put it under government control, people said it didn't matter.

51. When he claimed he was a Christian during the election and tapes were later made public that showed Obama speaking to a Muslim group and 'stating' that he was raised a Muslim; was educated as a Muslim; and that he is still a Muslim-- people said it didn't matter.

52. When he set into motion a plan to take over the control of all energy in the United States through Cap and Trade, people said it didn't matter.

This is the kind of crap being passed around through e-mail. It's taken as gospel by some of the more credulous recipients (many of whom we saw at that rally Glenn Beck held yesterday in Washington). It's all recycled nonsense left over from the presidential campaign, all of it addressed and refuted, but that doesn't matter. It gets repeated over and over until some begin to believe it must be true. Worse, the truth tellers in the media believe it's been addressed and refuted so there's no need to continue to do so.

Thus it keeps proliferating.
