Fox claims Jeromi Corsi, Swiftboat asshole and attempted Obama Swiftboater, is being Swiftboated

Fox suggests swiftboat author being swiftboated himself
David Edwards and Muriel Kane

Jeromi Corsi, the author of Obama Nation, was welcomed to Fox & Friends on Friday to respond to charges made against him and his book in a 40-page rebuttal from the Obama Campaign, "Unfit for Publication."

"Essentially it calls you a liar and a bigot," suggested Fox's Steve Doocy.

"I think some juvenile leftists have taken over the Obama campaign and gotten a hold of Photoshop," Corsi replied. "Now I'm getting death threats and hate mail from Obama supporters."

"You're getting these death threats because you wrote a book," Doocy agreed, "and in fact there's a website, Daily Kos, that's published your home address."

RAW STORY has been unable to find Corsi's home address at Daily Kos -- only his email and the address and phone number of one of his employers -- but it is possible that it was posted and then removed by site moderators.

Corsi is the author of 2004's Unfit for Command, which launched the Swift Boat attacks against Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry. During the last two weeks, Obama supporters have been moving quickly to discredit Corsi as well as his book before his more outrageous charges can gain general credence.

"A lot of people have suggested," continued Doocy, "well, the Obama campaign is not going to allow their candidate to get swiftboated once again by this guy. Do you feel almost as if you yourself are being swiftboated?"

"In a way, but I also think the Obama campaign is making the identical mistakes of the Kerry campaign," Corsi replied. "They started now calling me names and trying to get the New York Times to introduce me as a gadfly. ... They're quibbling about details."

2. Newtonian politics.

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. You could call it karma or blowback, but whatever -- it's a mo-fo and it will bite you in the butt.

Hey, douchebag, I got a little tune to play for you. It's called "Cry Me a Fucking River." :nopity:

I've said it before I'd like to bring a civil lawsuit against this asshat for the damage he inflicted on my country by helping to re-elect Bush & Co with his lies....

6. Well, clearly they are covering up the FACT that Corsi is a necrophilic, pedophile.

12. What about the beastiality?

Why hasn't Corsi addressed me repeated allegations that he fucks dogs?

I mean, the allegation is out there and unless he addresses it, I think it's safe to assume that he's having sex with barnyard animals pretty much 24/7.

14. Don't You Mean Sheep?

�And, apropos of nothing in particular, I have to ask: can we trust Corsi, an author who's been accused IN SOME CIRCLES of buggering barnyard animals? Are the accusations true? Because SOME SAY: Jerome Corsi buggers barnyard animals. For FAIRNESS, and BALANCE, I'll offer that the barnyard animals are rumored to enjoy their time with Corsi, and THIS GUY I MET AT A BUS STATION told me that they may be writing their own book about it entitled,
Jerome Corsi: Brave American Lover Of Young Sheep. That book will have eleventy billion footnotes, and even an alphabetized index.�

7. LOL

According to Corsi, Bill O'Lielly is one of those swiftboaters! Today, when I called Corsi a 9/11 Truther, he blah blahed about how BillO was the one that called him that and it was so not twue because the article he'd written on it hadn't been published.

18. Anyone think Corsi is a paid operative of some major hidden government.

He seems to swiftboat even the 911 truth movement with his rantings.

20. The 911 truth movement doesn't need Corsi to swiftboat itself.

23. Yeah, they have Chertoff's brother to do that.

With Popular Mechanics and the History channel without looking at the Historical timeline.

9. Well god forbid you'd be called out on "details"..... it's a BOOK you IDIOT.....

Edited on Fri Aug-15-08 06:57 PM by RollWithIt

It's being listed as a NON fiction book, therefor it's DETAILS are FAIR GAME. Oddly enough, all his DETAILS are BULLSHIT.

11. This is how these liberals operate...

I thought my head would fucking explode the other night watching this POS on Larry King.

Yes, Lee. This is how we liberals operate.

We read your book.
We expose your fucking lies.
We call you a fucking liar to your face.

That's EXACTLY how we operate.

Stop lying, and we'll stop calling you a liar. It's pretty straight-forward proposition.

13. Faux news

Is that response supposed to be irony, stupidity, or the usual Repuke game plan of shamelessly pandering to their base, knowing full well how absurd their response really is?

I'm assuming it is all the above.

Idiots.

15. Exposing truth is not...

...'swiftboating.' Swiftboating is about making up lies and spreading them...as Corsi and the SBVT did in 2004 against John Kerry.

Swiftboating was successful in 2004 because the lies were not debunked in time. Obama is not about to let that happen again this year. :)

16. Faux News is only viewed by the hard core, so what does it matter

what they say? I guess it is swiftboating to point out the ubiquitous inaccuracies and lies in the book...but Corsi swiftboated himself as did Matalin. They have no credibility.

19. Wrong. Corsi is being EXPOSED

One is swiftboated when lies are told to damage one's reputation. But truths are being told in order to save Obama's reputation from the claws of this liar.
