Now it's getting REALLY dirty
The film claims that Mr Obama's real father is left wing poet and Communist party activist, Frank Marshall Davis
100,000 copies of the DVD, containing extraordinary claims, have already been mailed to voters in Ohio with up to three million more planned to go out
As Mitt Romney lags in the polls the material could be potentially damaging for the Obama campaign
It has already won the support of Alabama's Republican Party chairman Bill Armistead
Democrat consultant Steve Murphy called the accusations 'low' and motivated by race and money

Porn star: 'Dreams From My Real Father' the DVD includes images of a woman its maker says is Ann Dunham, clad in leather gloves, boots and a corset posing seductively on a couch
The extraordinary claims are the latest twist in the debunked 'birther' conspiracy which has raised questions over Mr Obama's past.
But they could have serious consequences as more than one million copies have been mailed to voters in Ohio, a key swing state where Mitt Romney is lagging in the polls.
It has even won the support of Alabama's Republican Party chairman Bill Armistead who has said: 'That (the film) is absolutely frightening. I've seen it. I verified that it is factual, all of it. People can determine.'
Argument: Tea Party members are suspected to be behind the funding of the DVD made by Joel Gilbert and research that went into the website
But Democrat consultant Steve Murphy said today: 'It's about the lowest thing you can do to accuse, with no evidence, the opposition candidate's mother of being a porn star.
'There are two motives behind this - racism and money. It's a cynical attempt to make some coin and exploit the views of the fringes of mainstream views.'
'Dreams From My Real Father' claims that the President's family history is an elaborate lie.
The real story is that his mother's marriage to Barack Obama Sr was a sham to cover up her affair with Mr Davis, who Mr Obama has referred to as his 'mentor'.
Mr Davis supposedly photographed Ms Dunham whilst she was pregnant with Mr Obama and sold the photos to 1950s magazines with titles like 'Bizarre Life', 'Exotique', and 'Secret Pleasures'.
Claims: A website for the DVD entitled, Dreams from My Real Father, compares photographs of a young Mr Davis with Barack Obama's high school photographs presenting them as similar
Like father like son? Mr Gilbert's DVD claims that Ann Dunham's marriage to Barack Obama Sr is a 'sham' to cover up her affair with Mr Davis (right)
In one the woman - there is no proof offered that she is Ms Dunham - is posing wearing the corset, gaudy earrings and a large necklace with her hair cut short.
In another photo she sits on a couch staring into the camera and in the other she is putting on an elbow length black leather glove.
In a third she is reclining on the couch with her buttocks clearly visible and in others she is naked apart from a pair of high heels.
In the film, a narrator who is supposed to be Mr Obama says: 'These photos were taken a few weeks before 1960, when mom was about five weeks pregnant with me.
'Frank then sold the photos to men's mail-order catalogues.'

Agreed........ I think most of us have made up our minds, so all the nastiness is nothing but fodder.
IMO - neither candidate is qualified to do the job, so why keep digging up dirt? It's not going to change anything.

There are all kinds of groups out there that do things they shouldn't. Both sides are equally is bad. I also don't get invovled with the rubbish of elections.
I do hate the absolute nastiness that surrounds Ann Romney. It isn't necessary. I don't think we even have to be nasty about Romney if we don't like him or Obama if we don't like him. I don't make fun of Obama or Michelle. Honestly, all of THAT gets tiresome too.

Sure, I understand. I just blurted out what was on my mind:)
Conspiracy Theory: The Democrats put this out in the Republicans name to even make them (Republicans) look more ridiculous.....
I think its come to that or that we aren't from some shenanigans similar to it.
Pitiful.

I posted this as an example of how low down and dirty things get at election time. That is why I posted it. You see, the problem is there is a vast amount of people who do not see it as lies and trash, therein lies the problem.
Why do you bother with such trash ? To me it isn't worth my time seeing all the lies and bs .
I have a friend who keeps sending me things from

Some of it's funny, some I agree with but I had to ask them to stop.I just can't immerse myself in that way of thinking, well, at least not all the time:)

Stop It! This is hard! I wonder if Mitt could handle this or if it would throw him over the edge.
