DEMOCRATS ATTACK RATHER THAN REBUTT

In March 2004, when Barack Obama was a candidate for the U.S. Senate in the Illinois Democratic primary, he excoriated President George W. Bush for creating a "jobless recovery." The month he said that, 334,000 new jobs were created—none of them temporary census jobs—and unemployment was 5.8%.

That was then. This...is now. The unemployment rate is 9.6%, and jobs reports are unlikely to be much better for awhile because this President (the one who was so critical of Bush) is doing a poor job. While people were trying to point out how inexperienced Obama was and how what little experience he had showed little knowledge of economics or foreign policy or much of anything else, Obama was demonizing Bush. His rebuttals to this day are to attack everyone who criticizes him. Most people in Liberty County know it. Obama’s idea of spending our way out of economic trouble is just plain stupid.

Here on Liberty Dispatch we have talked a great deal about what the worst of the local Democratic officeholders have done when they were supposed to be performing their duties. We have documented a great deal of it. We have heard the pitiful defense of those who are not doing their job. Their defense is basically a two prong strategy. They have denied the documents that corroborate what we have said are authentic. We have posted copies with document numbers and page numbers leaving no doubt as to the facts.

For over two years they have attacked and even tried to imprison Liberty Dispatch Editor Ray Akins in an effort to shut up his over five years of criticism and investigation of the corruption in the courthouse. Unfortunately for them, their attempts to discredit him do not speak to the validity of the stories written on Liberty Dispatch. A review of this year indicates, Akins has written less than 15% of the articles posted. The attempts of some in the local media and the Democratic officeholders who are wrapped up in self dealing corruption to smear the facts written on Liberty Dispatch have missed entirely. Documented facts included in articles written by several law abiding concerned citizens continue to go unchallenged.

The reason they will go unchallenged and the reason they attack and smear and try even to imprison the messengers is because if the facts continue to be revealed only family and close friends would vote to re-elect these people.
