The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality, released on Aug. 1, has taken less than two weeks to clinch the number one spot on The New York Times bestseller list.While the book's popularity is beyond dispute, its content is not. The website Media Matters recently documented Corsi's numerous untrue or misleading allegations.
That his book is rife with inaccuracies hasn't stopped Corsi from promoting it on dozens of talk shows, where he has peddled additional falsehoods about Obama. On Fox News' Hannity's America, for instance, he made the ludicrous claim that Obama supports abortion "after a child's born."
Perhaps Corsi's most telling appearance, however, has been on The Political Cesspool, an overtly racist, anti-Semitic radio show hosted by self-avowed white nationalist James Edwards. Corsi was interviewed on the Cesspool on July 20 and is scheduled to appear again this Sunday, August 17, joining a recent guest roster that has included Christian Identity pastor Pete Peters, Holocaust denier Mark Weber and former Klan boss David Duke.
Along with promoting Corsi's appearances, Edwards is boasting on his website that the three-hour weekly show will join the Republic Broadcasting Network in September. This conspiracy-minded network, heard via satellite and the web, features talk about a sinister "New World Order" and wild theories about the causes of 9/11. Shows that air on the network include The Piper Report, named after host Michael Collins Piper, who has contributed to the holocaust denial magazine The Barnes Review, and Mark Dankof's America, which has interviewed Weber, director of the Institute for Historical Review, a leading Holocaust denial group.
Of course Media Matters is a vipers nest of hateful stupidities arguably almost equal to Corsi's inner drives, but ....
Political cesspool?
911 Troofer?
The sad part is that this man would say we are attacking him and not his facts without ever considering that his inner compulsions, which have led him to such places and beliefs render him unable to separate fact from fiction in his research and writing, and are so strong they prevent him from identifying bigotry, and that at the very least someone who appears on Political Cesspool is not a suitable person to bring forth facts detrimental to Mr. Obama, IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM
