Larry Sinclair on the Campaign Trail

The last time we saw Larry Sinclair, an ex-con who won a strange sort of fame in 2008 for his wild and unsubstantiated allegations against Barack Obama, he was refusing to become a prop in one of Orly Taitz’s lawsuits — and he was mounting a bid for Congress in his new district, Florida-24.

One of Sinclair’s longtime fans, the mysterious “Citizen Wells,” has uploaded video of Sinclair introducing himself at a meet-the-candidates forum. It’s … fairly awkward. Sinclair spends much of his time warning the crowd that there’s something shady about him. “I’ve served my time,” he says. “I’ve accepted responsibility for what I’ve done.” And after some vague promises about staying closer to the district if elected, he notes that he’s “probably going to be the most vetted candidate in this entire race.”

In happier times, Sinclair was airing his allegations (which are re-aired by the Globe tabloid every few months) on a Puerto Rican talk show co-hosted by a puppet.

Sinclair was airing his allegations… on a Puerto Rican talk show co-hosted by a puppet.

Pretty much speaks for itself. Remove the reference to Puerto Rico and it could just as easily have been Fox's morning show.

Speaking of Orly's law suit, her latest motion in her quo warento suit is batcrap insanity/comedy gold.

This is industrial strength, weapons grade batcrap.

Sinclair is a mouse. He's definitely NOT politician material, honest or otherwise. That he's involved with anything Orly Tainted makes him that much more suspect.

Obama? Homosexual? Whaaaat? Now they're snatching s**t out of thin air. Very thin. Apoxia has done wonders for their cause. Orly's been the apoxia poster child for more than a year now, and look where she's gotten!

There is a Sinclair Watch” site that tells people a lot about the “man who whould be FL-24's Congressman”. From his first You Tube days to the present. Credibility is the one thing Sinclair never possessed according to Mainstream Media. Sinclair Watch decodes all of Sinclair's delusions and lies.

I'm torn over which line I like best. The one where she tells the judge:

“Let’s try it again slowly.”

or the part where she says:

“This evidence is so overwhelming, that it doesn’t even require additional investigation.”

heh– it is another scam of his since he doesn't have the required signatures and is begging for the money to be on the ballot.
How could someone who supposedly lives off of SSI and other welfare, and has numerous health problems be able to work as a congress-critter?
Hell, how can someone living off food stamps get so damn fat??

Doesn't Sinclair have a warrant out for his arrest in Colorado? Just imagine your congressman being extradited to another state and thrown in prison. Where's my congressman? He's in prison.

Wow, his “Good Friends”, they don't sound like the type of people I'd like my congressman to hang out with…
