"This Is Who Barack Obama Is"

(By Kathryn Jean Lopez, National Review Online) - Rush Limbaugh is highlighting the Stanley Kurtz-Barack Obama-William Ayers showdown today. "Radical leftists don't engage in debate....they destroy the opposition."

Kurtz has obviously hit a nerve. It is the same nerve hit by the American Issues Project, whose television ad calling for examination of the Obama/Ayers relationship has prompted the Obama campaign to demand that the Justice Department begin a criminal investigation. Obama fancies himself as “post-partisan.” He is that only in the sense that he apparently brooks no criticism. This episode could be an alarming preview of what life will be like for the media should the party of the Fairness Doctrine gain unified control of the federal government next year.
