I bought Corsi’s book, read it, then printed out the Obama Camp Response and read it. PDF file of Obamas rebuttal that was poorly written and has multiple mispellings and non responses to non issues in Corsi’s book.

Then I read the Corsi Rebuttal to the Campaign Rebuttal.
Here is the final analysis from Corsi’s Rebuttal:
Ad Hominem Attacks: The Lowest Form of Argumentation
Pages 34-40 of “Unfit for Publication,” approximately 15 percent of the total document, are devoted to ad hominem attacks against me.
Since the days of ancient Greek rhetoric, ad hominem attacks have been considered the lowest form of argumentation. Typically, debaters or apologists only resort to ad hominem attacks only when they have already lost the argument because they are unable to win through evidence and logic. Ad hominem attacks attempt to discourage the listener from paying attention to the arguments made. The problem is that ad hominem arguments fail to refute the substantive contentions of the person who is being attacked personally.
In a section entitled “Consider the Source: Corsi Holds Widely Discredited Beliefs,” the Obama campaign rebuttal presents entirely one-sided, emotionally-laden and partial descriptions or distortions of arguments I have made in books and on the radio concerning topics unrelated to the subject matter of “The Obama Nation.” Put simply, these ad hominem attacks are irrelevant to the truth or falsehood of the arguments I make in “The Obama Nation.”
…Throughout the 2004 election cycle, I remained active in promoting “Unfit for Command” as has been documented by Scott Swett and Tim Ziegler in their 2008 book entitled “To Set the Record Straight: How Swift Boat Veterans, POWs and the New Media Defeated John Kerry.” I attended as an invited guest multiple meetings of the Swift Boat Veterans for the Truth and was honored by awards given by the Swift Boat Veterans for the Truth for my participation in their campaign.
That the Obama campaign feels compelled to attack me personally in order to refute “The Obama Nation” is a clear indication how weak and troubled are the arguments the campaign is capable of mounting in defense of their candidate.
I trust unbiased readers will see the ad hominem attacks leveled at me by “Unfit for Publication” for what they are β attacks unworthy of any serious effort to elect a candidate to the highest political office in the United States.
The last section of “Unfit for Publication” lists “Offensive Language in Corsi’s Book.” Without repeating the cited sentences drawn out of context from “The Obama Nation,” I also trust unbiased readers to see what the Obama campaign is attempting to accomplish here β to rule out of bounds as politically incorrect language as any comment adverse to Sen. Obama, regardless of their truth, if any reference is made whatsoever to race, national identity, religion, disease or sex.
My rejoinder is simple: The Obama campaign rebuttal fails to demonstrate any of the comments itemized as politically objectionable in their limited view were false. Targeting as politically correct any and all unpleasant criticisms of Sen. Obama or any and all politically inconvenient comments regarding Sen. Obama is nothing more than an attempt at political censorship that has no place within the robust intent of open discussion as defined by the First Amendment.
If personal abuse is the price for writing a book that is critical of Sen. Obama, then that is a price I will gladly pay, especially since the 40-page rebuttal plus cover has failed to prove a single falsehood contained in pages of the book, “The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality.”
Bottom line? As Corsi made so abundantly clear, Barack Obama has some things he has been hiding from the American Public.
From the Amazon Link:
In this stunning and comprehensive new book, the reader will learn about: -Obama’s extensive connections with Islam and radical politics, from his father and step-father’s Islamic backgrounds, to his Communist and socialist mentors in Hawaii and Chicago, to his long-term and close associations with former Weather Underground heroes William Ayers and Bernadette Dohrnβassociations much closer than heretofore revealed by the press
-Barack and Michelle’s 20-year-long religious affiliation with the black-liberation theology of former Trinity United Church of Christ Reverend Jeremiah Wright, whose sermons have always been steeped in a rage first expressed by Franz Fanon , Stokely Carmichael and Malcolm X, a rage that Corsi shows has deep meaning for Obama
-Obama’s continuing connections with Kenya, the homeland of his father, through his support for the candidacy of Raila Odinga, the radical socialist presidential contender who came to power amid Islamist violence and church burnings
-Obama’s involvement in the slum-landlord empire of the Chicago political fixer Tony Rezko, who helped to bankroll Obama’s initial campaigns and to purchase of Barack and Michelle’s dream-home property.
-the background and techniques of the Obama campaign’s cult of personality, including the derivation of the words βhopeβ and changeβ
-Obama’s far-left domestic policy, his controversial votes on abortion, his history of opposition to the Second Amendment, his determination to raise capital-gains taxes, his impractical plan to achieve universal health care, and his radical plan to tax Americans to fund a global-poverty-reduction program
-Obama’s naΓ―ve, anti-war, anti-nuclear foreign-policy, predicated on the reduction of the military, the eradication of nuclear weapons and an overconfidence in the power of his personality, as if belief in change alone could somehow transform international politics, achieve nuclear-weapons disarmament and withdrawal from Iraq without adverse consequences, for us, for the Iraqis or for Israel.
Meticulously researched and documented, THE OBAMA NATION is the definitive source for information on why and how Barack Obama must be defeatedβnot by invective and general attacks, but by detailed arguments that are well-researched and fact-based.
Pat Buchanan has some thoughts on Obamas first one hundred days…..shudder, gasp, and groan…
