Larry Sinclair: Welfare Recipient? »
Posted by: jovial 1 year, 10 months agoThe man who claims to have done all sorts of things with Senator Barack Obama in the back of a limo in 1999 in Chicago, is on welfare? Maybe we have a motive for his malicious, fallacious, attack.

Feb. 19, 2008, 1:19 a.m.Well it appears that this guy's a kook. I think he needs help. I also think that those that ever fell for the story in the first place could use some professional help as well.

Agree, this guy sounds and looks like a nut. I read somewhere else he is willing to take a polygraph test.
I think, but Im not sure, that people who are nuts can pass the polygraph because they actually believe it to be true.

Feb. 19, 2008, 7:10 a.m.We can expect to see much more of this.
Jewish functionaries stirring the Clinton-Obama race
Politics â;; As the gap between the front-runners narrowed in the Democratic primaries, the clash between the two Jewish camps has become more heated. Right wing Jewish advisers are almost obsessively occupied with searching for skeletons in the black candidate's past.
http://politics.propeller.com/story/2008/02/18/...
The ZionCon War Party Targets Obama
Politics â;; The War Party's agenda is clear and simple: de-legitimize anyone who advances foreign policy ideas that go against the grain of militarism and slavish appeasement of Israel. Anyone who questions why we are in a war in the midst of Mesopotamia for no apparently good reason is going to be smeared, and brought down.

Feb. 19, 2008, 9 a.m.Where was this guy hiding when Obama was a candidate for US Senate in 2004?
Only in this country do these hacks come out of woodwork whenever a candidate for US President becomes front runner.
Something to ponder.

Feb. 19, 2008, 9:46 a.m.I did read the story on Barack and also most of the comments but I will not comment about those who voted or commented since most people do gossip in the real world.
My thought when I read the story was that everyone wants their 15 minutes of fame in life and most who do really have no care about who it costs.
I'm sure with the money that is spent in these campaigns we could buy dirt on anyone.

Feb. 19, 2008, 10:33 a.m.Jovial & Gamahuche: I agree that Sinclair's allegations are dubious. I didn't participate on that "other" story at all. That's no reflection on you, RRJ. I had already seen Sinclair's YouTube video and dismissed it, at least until more reputable investigatory news teams had brought more light to the situaiton. Frankly, I think he may be suffering from a mental disorder of some kind.
Still, I have to wonder at the title of this story...is being a Welfare Recipient necessarily indicative of ill intent? Is it suggestive that he is scamming for money because he is poor? If so, why Obama and why this particular "scam"?
I didn't read the story, to be honest, cuz I didn't feel like signing up for the website. Maybe the "Welfare Recipient" angle is clarifed?

Feb. 19, 2008, 11:35 a.m.Where are all my ultra conservative commenters? No conservatives here, (looking under the keyboard), No conservatives under my desk. Oh I know, they'll start commenting just as the story closes. When it's safer to comment without rebuttal.

Feb. 19, 2008, 12:22 p.m.While it is true that it's possible to vote for a story one doesn't agree with for the sake of the discussion it generates, I felt that the Larry Sinclair piece went beyond the pale. I really think that it is best not to encourage the Larry Sinclair's of the world (nor the enablers).
By the way, did that post earn a new record in sinks? It was at 62 when I checked in.

Feb. 19, 2008, 12:32 p.m.The problem is the American people don't have any good choices for president.
The fact that any US citizens would even consider the possibility that Obama is a crack cocaine user tells you something about the candidate.
Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, would have ever even thought a presidential candidate like for example Jimmy Carter could have used hard narcotics.
True or not, a lot of people can indeed conceive that Obama is a bi-sexual drug user. Shows how far US politics have fallen.

Feb. 19, 2008, 1:24 p.m.Well, I voted for the infamous story and commented on it too. Although, I never made any judgments regarding the truthfulness of the article. If this story is supposed to clear up any doubts about the truth it's failed. Tell me what is there about this article that shows Larry Sinclair is lying? BTW, are you liberals saying a person can't be believed because they are on welfare? If so. Shame on you.

Feb. 19, 2008, 1:49 p.m.I had to give a sink to yesterdays story....not something I usually do, as I try to practice a bot of tolerance on this site.
At this point, I don't believe a thing in regards to "Larry The Pervert Guy's" claim ....but there will be those that take it as the truth. These are the ones that are " deeply afraid" of Obama. These are not the same people that fear Obamas policies and vision. There is nothing wrong in promoting your personal choice for the leadership of your country..... it is wrong to buy into the crap I viewed yesterday.
If I were an American...Obama would get my vote. He is change.. and that is what is needed. He is natural born leader...that is something that cannot be learned. I see all the objections based on his lack of experience...I don't see these as being valid, as he is will not be alone in running the day to day operations. That being said...what has experience done for the US of the last few years?

Feb. 19, 2008, 2:08 p.m.The point is not who voted for the story, which act is the prerogative of Propeller members, but that someone wishes to harm Obama, taking a very, very low road to do so.
Part of the lowness has to do, in my opinion, with the implicit exploitation of homophobia by the "claimant."
Why should any sexual act that occurs among adults and harms no one be defamatory? Would the same story, coming from a woman, be considered equally "shocking?"

Feb. 19, 2008, 2:25 p.m.What irks me the most, is noncustodial parents paying the state back because the custodial parent receives welfare at the same time receiving child support payments, wages, and profit from a business. To top it off, the agency lets the custodial parent continue to commit felonies. Really fair...isn't it ???

Slate: " Sorry I don't buy this one,,,, as seldom as I side with the left,,,, I'm leaning that way on this one,,,,, though I wouldn't put it past Hillary to be part of this,,,, but I'm always biased against her, so take it for what it is..."
"I'll say again that I don't Believe this for a second,,,, you libs don't make false claims against me about me believing this and being a Slug,,,, the fact is the video is out there,,, I want to know who put it out,,, was it an insurance policy for someone that could see the future possible need for it?"
MichaelRhodente: "I saw that guys video, not sure how to take it.
be nice to see it proved or disproved by reputable journalists, if there are any out there."

Feb. 19, 2008, 2:39 p.m.AlphaGnosis: "don't know any such thing. It's probably not true, but I say let's get it out into the open so it can be proven or disproven once and for all. Barack hasn't even begun to be put under the microscope. If I were you, I'd want to know everything there was to know about a candidate I was possibly gonna be voting for. If it's not true, it will come out in the wash. The truth will out."
Amazed: "and, of course, the Clinton machine could put it out knowing McCain and all the other republicans would automatically be blamed."
Klarissa: "I really don't believe this, because I think he wants to be president so badly that he wouldn't risk doing something dumb like this."

Feb. 19, 2008, 2:39 p.m.CapecoralIM: "THE CLINTON WAR MACHINE IS REVVING UP FOR BIG BATTLE January 5, 2008 -- NASHUA, NH New York Post - The Clinton campaign and its surrogates have already repeatedly dragged into the public domain innuendoes about Obama's cocaine use as a teenager, his Arabic middle name and, yes, even his ambitions as a kindergartner."
Ranchhand: "Yep I saw the video. And just dismissed it as a lie. But I have seen this coming up more and more. And now I'm not so sure. Wonder how it will play out."
StephenJohnson: "The server to the World Net Daily is down.
No matter. The story looks bogus, just like the one claiming that Obama is a stealth Muslim."

CactusAnnie: "And being behind in polls is exactly why she/they would be desperate enough to try something like this. You remember their motto, "win at any cost". If it's true, would you want to know? A lot of folks would."
Zaph22: "I remember seeing this same story, and the video, about a month or so ago, I think someone else had posted it here under a much different title, but no matter, I do remember seeing it, and I think the same thing now that I thought then... I wonder how much the Clintons had to pay this guy to make these claims."
Aniokly: "You are goofy. The Republicans have plenty on both these Democratic candidates, but it is not in their best interests to put it out now. The only one with a motive is Hillary."

Feb. 19, 2008, 2:46 p.m.Glad to see this story. I never believed the crap that Sinclair was saying and stated so on said thread. After that- what right do any of you have to question the voting habits of others? I know rdy2rock and I've read the comments of GHOSTWHOWALKS enough to know neither of them would be doing something like that to just get what they considered inflammatory trash to the front page. I mean if you want to get people to change you might begin by setting an example for how they should change. I would advise by not attacking everyone who simply disagrees with you no matter the reason they disagree. Not everyone posting here is guilty of that I know and I'm not naming names of who is and who isn't guilty of it, from my perspective, on this thread.

Feb. 19, 2008, 2:46 p.m.I read through the thread, I saw similar comments from nearly every conservative Propeller member. It was not accepted as truth or talked about as such. Slamming them on this thread for discussing something that, true or not, is out there waiting to be addressed, is engaging in the same kind of snarky, gossipy behavior you are admonishing them for. Overwhelmingly, I saw comments discussing who might have set this guy up. Participation in a thread does not indicated support or agreement. It shows interest. What aspect they find intriguing is their business, not something to vilify them for.

Feb. 19, 2008, 3:19 p.m.Your ignorance is only trumped by your stubbornness.
Barney Frank is openly gay.
He was never in public soliciting sex.
Can you put your stubborn urge to be foolish aside for a few days, maybe???
Again...hate, hate , hate..
I am disappointed that there are so many hateful Americans.
get out of our way, will ya??

"There are millions of websites on the internet that claim that Dubya is the Anti Christ. His name in Skull and Bones is Magog. He was given that name because he cited the most illicit sex life than any other member, while doing his business in an open cofin while other members watched."
I've lost my respect for you. That paragraph is beneath you.

Feb. 19, 2008, 3:42 p.m.Ok I voted for this article when it was posted the first time,,and I voted for it again when it came back out. Not that it is anyones business why I voted for it but...I saw this article as a possilbe news story that should be either proven or disproven..ignoring things like this are not my style. I have no clue as to if this guy is telling the truth or not...what I find important is that someone thought the story was important enough to post and it sure looks like plenty of people had an opinion. It is also no suprise to me that there are some people on this site that will find any reason to call someone else names and this story it appears has done just that.
