The National Enquirer is at it again trying to expose politicians cheating on their wives, and this time attempting to catch President Barack Obama. The Enquirer has been right with both Tiger Woods and John Edwards: yet, people only tend to remember the “correct calls” and forget stories such as the National Enquirer’s story about Sarah Palin Lover
However, after reading through the actual story, you see a “huge nothing burger.” It’s a perfect example of how the media uses the presence of ‘some people say” to write a story based on very little evidence. In this case the Enquirer is relying on unnamed political operatives who are offering 1 million dollars cash money.
Lots of people and particularly politicians cheat, that’s believable.
So, in the meantime enjoy the wild ride.
Here is the money quote from the National Enquirer:
While Baker has insisted in the past that “nothing happened” between them, reports reveal that top anti-Obama operatives are offering more than $1 million to witnesses to reveal what they know about the alleged hush-hush affair.
Among those being offered money is a limo driver who says in 2004 that he took Vera to a secret hotel rendezvous in where Obama was staying.
[ Emphasis added National Enquirer]
Which of course says absolutely nothing about the context, given Obama and company have literally dozens of interviews with people who work in the administration.
And who can forget this guy, who had a sworn deposition from a limo driver who swore he was Obama’s gay lover: Larry Sinclair.
We’re looking forward to hearing more proof.
