Murdoch's NY-Post lies about Obama; pro-Clinton bloggers spread the lie

[killbotfactory]

Well, the Clinton-supporting Rupert Murdoch publishes this BLATANT LIE in the scummy New York Post.

January 14, 2008 -- PRESIDENTIAL hopeful Barack Obama claims to run a clean campaign, but someone in his camp took a swipe at Hillary Clinton through the candidate's theme song.

As Obama and his wife, Michelle, strolled triumphantly into his victory party in Des Moines, Iowa, on Jan. 3, Jay-Z's "99 Problems" was blaring. In it, Jay raps, "I got 99 problems, but a bitch ain't one."

Some listeners took it as a not-so-sly reference to Hillary.

"We didn't know he used that," a shocked Clinton spokesperson

Shocking! Not surprisingly, a number of dishonest, pro-Clinton/anti-Obama websites have latched onto this smear? The Hillary Coaster, f/k/a The Left Coaster. The odious Taylor Marsh. The only problem with this outrageous tale being told by Clinton's propagandists.

It isn't true.

You see, when the Obama family took the stage, it wasn't Jay-Z that was playing. It was Stevie Wonder's "Signed, Sealed, Delivered." Don't believe me? You don't have to.

There is video and audio proof.

1. I am saddened...

that her supporters do not find offense to the way she trying to win this campaign.

2. Truth means nothing to the Clinton camp.

Their version of truth, i.e. any tweaking of statements or commentary regarding situation that supports their interesets, is what they propagate.. and be damned anyone that calls them on it.

3. Yes. And they're spreading those lies on DU, too.

4. Obama left the stage to Stevie Wonder.

I am pretty sure he took that stage to U2 but it is difficult to make out.

6. Your right, and thats what he usually does at his appearances now.

[Drunken Irishman]

7. Either way, it wasn't Jay-Z.

[rinsd]

9. I haven't seen any video/audio with the Jay-Z song and Obama.

[geek tragedy]

11. Yeah, it was U2. Which is not Jay-Z. n/t

5. Taylor Marsh is the filth of the Democratic movement.

I doubt she's even a Democrat.

[Avalux]

8. The Clintons have sold their souls to the Republican hate machine.

Repulsive to have Murdoch in their corner. I need to take a shower.....

[Lucinda]

10. It doesn't say WHEN THEY TOOK THE STAGE...it says when they ENTERED THE PARTY

I could care less when it played...but you're not being correct.

[killbotfactory]

13. They took the stage when they entered the party

nice try, though

[Lucinda]

14. Nooo....it says "As Obama and his wife, Michelle, strolled triumphantly into his victory party "

nice try, though

[killbotfactory]

15. How long could it possibly take them to move through the crowd?

[Lucinda]

16. Are you serious?

Ya don't supposed they stopped and shook a hand or said hello to a supporter? I guess they just bolted into the stage? :rofl:

[alcibiades_mystery]

12. Video or it never happened!

:evilgrin:

[robbedvoter]

17. NY Post is hardly pro-Clinton - have you seen their headlines lately? Shame on bloggers

for using NY Post as a source - I don't care which democrat Murdoch was attacking.

[Beacool]

18. I have no idea to what music he took the stage, nor do I care.

I wasn't interested in watching his speech.
