There is no proof Obama knew about this
Hey leave the personal attacks out ok? You have your opinions and I have mine. Nobody made you the high holy expert on politics either. Your arrogance is overwhelming. I never said, not once, that what I was suggesting might be happening might be illegal. Sure its illegal, doesn't mean it isn't or couldn't theoretically be happening.
Maybe this woman that Liza spoke to, the one who barely spoke english, went off on her own with the things she said. She might well working on commission. Not a political professional but just a lady who speaks bad english working on commission who gets a hispanic/latino lady on the phone and is desperate to make a score, and says things she shouldn't have. Couldn't she thus have gotten someone like Liza on the phone and said certain things based on her-- not the campaign's but her-- assumptions about the person to whom she was talking? Yes, this could have been outsourced from a vendor hired by the Obama campaign, but that doesn't prove the Obama campaign knows about this directly, which is what Liza implied. Since we do not know if this came directly from the Obama campaign, or if Barack Obama knew about this in any way, shape, or form, Liza was out of line putting him "on notice" and asserting or implicitly implying his direct responsibility. But apparently I'm the only one who is not allowed to libel candidates or make unsubstantiated assertions around here.
