Wingnuts turning on Corsi over his Obama smear-filled book

Corsi's Obama Book Inspires New Dissidents On Right

At last count, there are only four members of the dissident cell -- Peter Wehner, Ross Douthat, Jon Henke and John Hawkins -- conservatives who have broken ranks to harshly criticize Jerome Corsi's The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality.

All four make the case that Corsi presents a greater danger to the conservative movement and the Republican Party than to Barack Obama -- that for the right to take Corsi under its collective wing represents a moral and intellectual failing. This breakaway faction does not pull its punches as it challenges the ideological orthodoxy of fellow travelers.

"The French Revolution produced the saying 'no enemies to the Left' -- a mindset that has poisoned both the Left and the Right in American politics. As a result, some figures who should be repudiated have, instead, become prominent representatives. On the Right, in particular, the 'go along to get along' approach has created a Movement where the bad guys are protected, and the people who get promoted are those who make friends, not waves," wrote Henke on thenextright.com.

"The continued tolerance and prominence of Jerome Corsi -- his books, columns and appearances," Henke continued, "is embarrassing for the Right, embarrassing for Republicans, embarrassing for conservatives and libertarians, embarrassing for all of us."

1. And that's just the latest.

They not only tolerate, but support Savage, Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck -and all the idiots who fill in for them- on nationally broadcast media. The corporations shouldn't allow that sort of hateful speech, and conservatives should reject it as well.

Where is all the outrage.

2. Probably because he has a few choice quotes about their boy, McCain, too.
