Video - Hunter - Obama TV ad

Obama seeks to take down NRA ad
Ben Smith's Blog — The Obama campaign has written radio stations in Pennsylvania and Ohio, pressing them to refuse to air an ad from the National Rifle Association. "This advertisement knowingly misleads your viewing audience about Senator Obama's position on the Second Amendment," says the letter from Obama general counsel Bob Bauer. "For the sake of both FCC licensing requirements and the public interest, your station should refuse to continue to air this advertisement." The ad, "Hunter," conflates Obama's anti-gun stances of the 1990s with his current, more pro-gun, stand, and was chided for ...

So, Why Not Post The Ad?
Riehl World View — If you're as tired of Obama's thuggish tactics as I am, why not just run the NRA YouTube ad on your blog? Really, this is getting way out of hand? And about the only thing that has a prayer of getting around the media covering up for Obama at every turn - in this case, covering up for his heavy handed tactics, is for enough people to stand up against them. Here's the YouTube link. Grab the embed code and run the ad. ...

Doing My Patriotic Duty:
The Volokh Conspiracy — As co-blogger Jonathan reports below, the Obama campaign has sicced its lawyers on t.v. stations that might air a well-sourced NRA advertisement that correctly points out Obama's longstanding anti-gun record. The proper response to such attempts to infringe on the First Amendment is to make sure that the video in question receives the widest circulation possible, to deter the Obama campaign, and other campaigns for that matter, from engaging in such tactics in the future. So here it is. Share it with a friend, with a note that Obama is threatening legal action against stations that run it, in violation of the First Amendment.

The video that Barack Obama doesn't want you to see.
RedState: Conservative News and Community — Umm, why? As Glenn notes, it's not especially vicious. One issue, yes. Unsympathetic, also yes. But this is hardly "Obama drinks baby blood," or something. So why is Obama sending out the legal dog pack against stations that air it? Choice of words there deliberate, by the way. ...

'Obama On Guns' From The NRA
Hyscience — Here's one of the ads Team Obama doesn't want you to see, and is so much in an uproar over this one that Obam's camp is actually threatening the licenses of TV stations that run NRA ads. The problem for the Obama camp is that every bit of what NRA claimed is true. It's the Obama campaign and the news media that's doing the lying (and Factcheck.org has gotten it wrong - also here - perhaps on purpose). It is critical that readers understand that despite some of factcheck.org's claims and all of Team Obama's claims, to the ...

Up in Arms
Opinionator — The National Rifle Association is airing an anti-Obama ad in Pennsylvania and the Obama campaign doesn’t like it. So campaign lawyer Robert F. Bauer is threatening legal action against any station that airs it , and Jesse Walker at Reason doesn’t like that : As a political move, this is stupid. Not only does it cast the campaign as a bunch of speech-squelching bullies, but it makes the ad itself into a story and thus guarantees that more people will see it. (A trivial example: I wouldn’t have stuck it in a blog post if it weren’t for the controversy.) But of course there’s much more on display here than poor ...

Obama Wants NRA Ads Banned
THE ASTUTE BLOGGERS — We read: "The Obama camp has been threatening television and radio stations to keep them from airing anti-Obama ads. The latest target is the NRA and stations in Pennsylvania. Earlier this week, the National Rifle Association's Political Victory Fund released a series of radio and television spots to educate gun owners and sportsmen about Barack Obama's longstanding anti-gun record. In response to the NRA-PVF ads, a clearly panicked Obama campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) are doing everything they can to hide Obama's real record by mounting a coordinated assault on the First ...

Free speech for me, but not for you
RIGHTWINGSPARKLE — When I spoke to a NRA board member the other day he told that the Obama campaign had threatened radio stations in Pennsylvania and Ohio if they ran a NRA ad called "Hunter." An Obama lawyer sent a letter to the stations that read in part: "For the sake of both FCC licensing requirements and the public interest, your station should refuse to continue to air this advertisement." In other words, "We know where you live." I really didn't believe the NRA guy until I looked this up myself. Does it bother any one else that Obama's lawyers are ...
