George Bush defecated on the Constitution. And funny how this all has turned out...
Well, we now know why Obama didn't want you to read his Columbia Univ. Thesis

Conservative Blogs Fall for Scam Post About Obama Paper on Constitution
Posted on Friday, October 23, 2009 2:32:03 PM by kristinn
Two months ago, the blog Jumping in Pools, which has been banned from FR for its chain-yanking postings of bogus news stories, posted a bogus story about Time magazine writer Joe Klein supposedly reporting on Barack Obama's writings at Columbia University about the Constitution.
Apparently without doing any research to see if Klein had actually written such an article, respected sites including American Thinker and Pajamas Media got all excited about the story and reported it today as if it were true.
They apparently hadn't noticed there was no source link at Jumping in Pools back to the supposed Joe Klein article. A search of the web produced no original source. A search of Time magazine for the term "Aristocracy Reborn", the supposed title of Obama's paper, returned this message: "Your search produced no results."

LATER UPDATE: It gets even better -- according to the PolitiFact article that called out the Jumping in Pools blogger, Matthew Avitabile, for making up outlandish Obama stories:
Avitabile, a Republican who had previously poked fun at Obama with a tongue-in-cheek article that said scientists had determined that he was "genetically superior," is thankful for all the traffic it generated for his blog Jumping in Pools. In the past he was lucky to get 1,000 hits on a story, but this one got more than 50,000. Yet he's disappointed that so many people published his work without verifying it.
"Out of the 50,000 who looked at it, only three had the good sense to contact me and see if it was true," he told us (PolitiFact was one of the three).
Avitabile described himself as a moderate Republican - "I'm pro-gay rights, pro-wind energy" - but said he was surprised that so many in his party had such negative feelings about Obama.
"People wanted to believe this about the president so bad, that he would really go toward a dictatorship so much that they would go with it without checking it," he said.

Good points, but if that is the case, again, why would they take so much effort to hide it from the public? All he had to do was say exactly what you just said. But he hasn't done anything to show that his views are any different now than they were then.
if you have to take more than 2 seconds to explain something to the general public, they've lost interest already. Fox News will still probably run for weeks on this thing alone.. imagining if they had it before the election is frightening, they probably would've pushed to had him extradited or something.
you're dealing with a bunch of people who's job it is to make others look bad... you don't give them an angle, EVER if you can help it.
i'm not sure why you're confused about this..
....read the last few pages....rofl.
