<p>Since link to you tube is not allowed to be posted, I am wondering is this a ture story or just a smear campaign?</p>
<p>is this a smear campaign by Hillary or Republican party so America does not elect its first black president. Alternatively, if it is true then Obama and democrat are trying to stifle discussion on this issue.</p>
<p>It’s a smear. Anyone who doesn’t think it’s a smear is being incredibly naive. In the video Larry Sinclair tries to put the onus on disproving his allegations on Obama. He “challenges” Obama to take a lie detector test. If you can’t see past that then I don’t know what to say.</p>
<p>Lastly, the structure of Sinclair’s story is not plausible. He said that he came forward in September because he thought Obama was being dishonest about his past drug use–only problem is that Obama didn’t mention it until November.</p>
<p>EDIT:</p>
<p>Your post was deleted because it had a Youtube link–and it was somewhat inappropriate. This one might be considered inappropriate too because of the title you gave it.</p>
<p>Is there a way to see when this youtube vedio was posted? Beacuse it will prove the veracity of the cliam that obama is telling truth or Sinclair is telling truth.</p>
<p>aapride, I cordially invite you to the wonderful world of the internet age, when any and every conspiracy and lunatic theory (faked moon landings, Sasquatch, Elvis in a donut shop, etc.) is not only discussed and debated, there is ACTUAL LINKS TO PROOF (he says with a wink and a nod).</p>
<p>And if you believe that, I have some wonderful beach-front property to sell you in Montana.</p>
<p>The Men in Black will be by your house later to erase your hard drive and your memories of ever posting this… :)</p>
<p>In the original thread I had posted a reply with a link showing that Sinclair twice failed a polygraph test. I won’t post the link again (I was unaware of the private blog issue), but it said:</p>
<p>hahahhaahahaha that men in black will come to my humle home is funny. Anyway I am seeing if Yale daily news will be willing to publish this story.</p>
<p>Surely we can discuss this on it’s merits without threads being deleted ? </p>
<p>I think it’s probably untrue. At this point, it’s a case of his words against his words. It’s not like as if the guy had a baby. We can count on the NE investigating on the story too. They won’t pass this one up if there is any merit to it.</p>
<p>Thanks Booklady, an ugly accusation debunked. I never even heard of this so I learned something new today. I think discussions are good. </p>
<p>Fwiw I don’t see why the rule violation (the link) cannot be taken out of the post, leaving the post intact. I had seen that done before. I understand aapride’s frustration.</p>
<p>This is my frustation with people like Sinclair that just to be popular for few minutes Mr. Sinclair made this vedio. Why do this kind of crap thing for a cheap popularity if there is no truth in it. </p>
<p>What he gains out of doing such a thing? Does someone paid him money?</p>
<p>He might be doing it because he believes it’s true. Edwards affair and love child was “proven false” too.</p>
<p>I’m skeptical of all such stories, but I wouldn’t accept the fact that the candidates operatives are smearing Sinclair as proof one way or another.</p>
<p>Yeah. I can’t imagine that Obama has any friends in the D.C. police department. Or that the Axelrod/Daley machine hasn’t been working overtime researching Sinclair.</p>
<p>Oppo research is okay, as long as the results are accurate. In which case, they are not “smears.”</p>
<p>As for the D.C. police, it does not seem to be involved. The police in question come from Colorado (one warrant), Delaware (another one) and Maryland (arresting police.) Nice to know that Obama has such nation-wide support among our men in blue! Unless you are hinting at police corruption? Perish the thought!</p>
