How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

Before this speculation runs rampant, though, people should be warned that one of the earliest claims that Wurzelbacher is linked to Keating comes from a source who has been repeatedly and convincingly exposed as a hoax. The source in question has variously identified himself as “Michael/Martin/M. Thomas Eisenstadt” of the “Harding Institute for Freedom and Democracy.” We added articles to SourceWatch several months ago, exposing M. Thomas Eisenstadt and the Harding Institute. Blogger William K. Wolfrum has also written extensively about Eisenstadt and his various incarnations.
Before you blog about him, please check the sources.
On Friday evening, October 31, 2008, under the heading, “WTP USA TODAY AD ON TAP,” WTP announced our intention to publish an open letter to Barack Obama asking him to provide certain documents to prove he was a natural born citizen of the United States who had not relinquished his American citizenship. We provided a draft of the letter and requested donations to cover the cost – approximately $90.000.
For the next three days, leading up to Election Day, we heard from people supportive of the idea, some of whom contributed more than $5,000 for the project, believing as we did, that Mr. Obama would win the popular vote.
During those three days leading up to Election Day we also heard from people who were not supportive of the idea, some of whom sent us information that they said proved Mr. Obama was a natural born citizen of the United States.
We did not hear from anyone representing Mr. Obama offering, say, to provide the requested information.
Newsbusters just reported a story regarding Martin Eisenstadt a supposed McCain campaign advisor that ‘leaked’ the story to Carl Cameron about Sarah Palin.
Problem is: Martin Eisenstadt doesn’t exist or if he does exist he isn’t on McCain’s campaign team.
The story is a hoax unless we find concrete proof he does exist.
Newsbusters shouldn’t feel too bad, the LA Times was burned earlier this summer by this ‘guy’.
THE STORYLINE goes something like this: America’s onetime popularity in the world was squandered by George W. Bush, whose belligerence and unilateralism after Sept. 11, 2001, alienated allies and engendered widespread anti-Americanism. But now, with the election of Barack Obama, America can restore its good name and regain the world’s goodwill.
One vigorous exponent of this narrative has been Obama himself. “The single most important issue that we’re facing in this election,” he said during the campaign, is choosing a leader “to repair all the damage that’s been done to America’s reputation overseas.” When I become president, he often told voters, “the world will look at America differently.”
Sure enough, much of the international reaction to Obama’s election has been ecstatic. “Legions of jubilant supporters set off firecrackers in El Salvador, danced in Liberia, and drank shots in Japan,” the Los Angeles Times reported. Kenya declared a national holiday. South Africa’s Archbishop Desmond Tutu exulted: “We have a new spring in our walk and our shoulders are straighter.” The Sun, Britain’s most popular newspaper, headlined its story “One Giant Leap for Mankind.”
For Obama, such worldwide jubilation must be gratifying. He should take it all with a healthy shake of salt, however. Because it isn’t going to last.
EMFK: The Obama love fest will last as long as the other countries believe America is being weakened and towing the line of the world. The moment he strays from the beaten path—watch out!
