INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALIST JACK CASHILL JOINS ANDREA SHEA KING TO DISCUSS HIS LATEST BOOK: DECONSTRUCTING OBAMA

Jack Cashill has been a frequent guest on The Andrea Shea King Show. Our listeners love to hear about his projects, his latest books, and they never lose interest in many of his previous works--First Strike and Ron Brown's Body usually come up in the discussion as well.

Once Cashill digs into a subject, he doesn't let go until he puts the pieces together, at least the pieces available to him. In the end, readers are able to surmise what really happened and they begin to ask their own questions. And with Obama, questions are a very important thing, dangerous too.

This is what an investigative journalist does: he sparks the interest of the reader, drawing him in with known facts and leads them to a logical conclusion. And if the reader has a problem with some facts or the conclusion, they're sufficiently interested by that point that they begin to ask their own questions, sometimes even adding to Cashill's research.

Jack Cashill has this job in part because the MSM isn't allowed to do theirs. They have their "no report zones" clearly defined and they don't dare step over the journalist line that has been drawn for them. This is where Cashill begins his work: where the MSM is forbidden to go.

Case in point: Cashill's latest work--Deconstructing Obama.

What we don't know about Obama is out there somewhere; Cashill had to go get it, piece it together and present this presidential puzzlement to the reading community in such a way that they couldn't wait to turn the next page.

It wasn't always the case with the MSM not being allowed to do their job, either. There was a time when they bristled with questions, prompting presidents and other politicians to cut-short a presser and run for cover. The Nixon years come to mind but I'm sure there were other very interesting, journalistic times as well.

Today, though, Jack Cashill fills the shoes of all the "so-called" journalists of the day, does their homework for them and presents his reports in book and column form. I'm sure the journos of this day would love to do the same, but can't allow themselves to let loose of the big paychecks, fame, and access they so enjoy.

And those same journalists are quick on the draw when it comes to labeling a man like Cashill as a conspiracy theorist. Cashill simply asks: Do you know what they used to call conspiracy theorists? Reporters.

****OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST****

While watching Fox News this morning, I noted they were talking about what happens if states decide to go bankrupt. This leads me to believe some states are actually considering this option. Either way, not good news for many states. And for the latest financial news, head over to Terresa Monroe-Hamilton's FINANCIAL NEWS UPDATE. There's something of interest for everyone.

Do you remember Jeff McQueen, the creator of the Revolutionary Flag? The Radio Patriot has an update on him, plus some great pics of Andrea with the flag while on tour with Tea Party Express.

Jack Cashill: Deconstructing Obama--Andrea Shea King reviewed the book and has it posted.

Here's what could happen if the dollar ever crashes--a video presentation of the day after the crash.

911? We have an Emergency: Melanie Morgan covers the California financial crisis. Well, the Gov said it was a crisis, but I think we've gone well past the point of calling it a crisis. Whatever you decide to call it, when it happens, all states will feel the pain. Lots of pain. Taxpayers will take the brunt of the pain so that lawmakers won't have to. It's good to be a lawmaker, especially in California.

SARAH HEATH, BARRY SOETERO: TWO DIFFERENT JOURNEYS

In his column at American Thinker, Jack Cashill chronicles the lives of Obama and Palin. In it, he starts at the beginning of their lives and describes how both got to where they are today. And, with the help of the fringe media, we know just about everything about Palin. Obama, not so much:

In the spring of 1964, Sarah Heath, then just three months old, flew into backwater Skagway, Alaska (population 650) aboard a 1930s-era Grunman Goose to start a new life with her parents, brother, and sister.

At that same time, in America's other new outlier state, Hawaii, two-year-old Barry Obama was just getting used to a fatherless existence in the otherwise-comfortable world his white grandparents and occasionally his mother would make for him. --continue reading.

JACK CASHILL ADDS ANOTHER DIMENSION TO THE OBAMA BIRTHER CONTROVERSY

Recently, Andrew McCarthy wrote a piece about the birther issue. In it, he made mention of a passage from Obama's book, Dreams From My Father:

“Eventually a consulting house to multinational corporations agreed to hire me as a research assistant. Like a spy behind enemy lines, I arrived every day at my mid-Manhattan office and sat at my computer terminal,” begins the passage in question. “As far as I could tell I was the only black man in the company.”

When I read the passage, I thought of Jack Cashill, hoping he'd enter the controversy with his considerable knowledge of Obama's past. Well, Jack read the same article and decided to jump in. It's about time, Jack!
