Supporters Reject Obama’s Admonition for a Clean Race.

Floyd Brown Releases Obama’s Supporters Threatening and Profane Calls to his Home and Office

“Intimidation by Obama supporters is in vogue,” said Floyd Brown, President of the National Campaign Fund.

Senator Barack Obama has often said he wants his campaign and supporters to take the “high road during the campaign.” But they are not listening to him. As Obama puts it in his book, The Audacity of Hope, "It is at the heart of my moral code, and it is how I understand the Golden Rule -- not simply as a call to sympathy or charity, but as something more demanding, a call to stand in somebody else's shoes and see through their eyes."

He has gone so far as to say he would “fire” any campaign workers that were caught taking the low road. “Yet when I participate, I have find myself having my life threatened,” said Republican activist, Brown.

Brown has taken the extraordinary step of releasing a dozen of ugly voice mails of calls placed to him and his family. The audio can be heard at a special page on the Exposeobama.com website at www.exposeobama.com/calls.html.

“I challenge Senator Obama to denounce the thuggish behavior of his partisans. Threats of violence and intimidation are not a mature response to any campaign advertisement,” said Brown. “Senator Obama cannot say out of one side of his mouth he wants a clean campaign and then allow his people to threaten me to ‘watch my back.’

Senator Obama must put a stop to these threats undertaken in his name,” said Brown, adding, “In my 25 years of involvement in presidential campaigns I have never had my family attacked.”
