“St. Louis County Circuit Attorney Bob McCulloch, St. Louis City Circuit Attorney Jennifer Joyce, Jefferson County Sheriff Glenn Boyer, and Obama and the leader of his Missouricampaign Senator Claire McCaskill have attached the stench of police state tactics to the Obama-Biden campaign.

 

“What Senator Obama and his helpers are doing is scandalous beyond words, the party that claims to be the party of Thomas Jefferson is abusing the justice system and offices of public trust to silence political criticism with threats of prosecution and criminal punishment. – MO Gov Matt Blunt

Add this to the attempts to stifle the NRA ads, and others, on the tally of Obama’s shameful record of stifling free speech. 

Can you imagine is John McCain or any other Republican had done this? The scandal would be broadcast far and wide, and the candidate’s withdrawal would be demanded. The stench of it would be attached to the party for years. It is time that the same standard was applied across parties.
