Spokesman For Former Navy SEALs Group A Birther, Has Called Obama A Communist


Benjamin Smith, a spokesman for Special Operations OPSEC Education Fund Inc. — the group attacking President Barack Obama for taking credit for the operation that killed Osama bin Laden — has called Obama “Commander-in-Chief Hussein Mao-bama” and has questioned whether he is a Muslim or a citizen of the U.S.

Smith has also posted articles suggesting that the late conservative media provocateur Andrew Breitbart was murdered and posted his support for Republican congressional candidate Ilario Pantano, who was accused in a double murder as a Marine in Iraq.

OPSEC’s extensive ties to the Republican party had already been well documented, but an anonymous webpage has been collecting highlights from Smith’s Facebook page that show the former Navy SEAL expressing some controversial opinions.

Smith, who did not respond to Foreign Policy’s request for comment, also wrote after Obama’s 2012 State of the Union address that Obama must have used “some bad tan lotion because he looked like an old bruised Banana which made me think that Harry Belafonte was walking out to give his rendition of ‘Day-O’ before ‘ole’ suck and blow’ was to come out and enlighten us with his blasphemous spew.”

2. Whatever happened to Jerome Corsi?

Your post reminded me that Swift Boat alum Jerome Corsi was back on the radio last night spilling imaginary intelligence secrets to bumbling saucer chaser George Noory. Most of Noory's guests sound like they are calling from a pay phone inside a mental institution, so he's always proud to get a presumably-free man like Corsi, whom he proudly introduces as a reporter for The World Net Daily. Benjamin Smith sounds like he's trying to get in line for an interview with Noory.

In a related story we've all seen about Hank Williams, Jr., the readers at The Guardian had themselves quite a night at Williams' and Dave Mustaine's (Megadeath) expense.

Example: When I was 16, I went to see Megadeth at the Birmingham NEC as part of the Clash of the Titans tour. The highlight of the evening was seeing a PVC seat cover, stripped from one of the chairs, windmill through the air from about twenty rows back and smack Dave Mustaine in the gut, doubling him over and sending him off-stage for 5 minutes in a hissy fit. I just thought I'd share this with you all.This is a funny thread BTW.
