First it was insurance companies, then banks, then car companies. Is the National Football League now in danger of becoming the OFL, the Obama Football League?:
The plot thickens on the media’s character-lynching of Rush Limbaugh. Of the four stories run on ESPN.com about Limbaugh’s bid for the Rams (October 6, October 12, October 15, and another October 15) none of them mention that NFL Players Association Executive Director DeMaurice Smith served as counsel to Attorney General Eric Holder and was a member of Barack Obama’s transition team.
Joseph Ashby at The American Thinker also points to the media’s efforts to hide any connection DeMaurice Smith has with Eric Holder and Barack Obama. He finishes with this alarming bit:
Historically politicians have been prone to vindictive and petty behavior, but never in American history has someone had so much power to pummel his political opponents as President Obama With control over banks, insurance companies, car companies, media (sports media included) and unions (like the NFL players union), Obama tentacles seem to penetrate into nearly every corner of the nation.
UPDATE: Fake Wikipedia Limbaugh smear quotes traced to left-wing New York law firm. User also made changes to Wikipedia entries of a variety of other conservatives.
