The Globe prints the most important story in the history of the world!!!

Kudos.

bill on Feb 22, 2008

Keep the pressure on - the main media will not cover this story.

Al on Feb 22, 2008

Finally someone is reporting this.

megan on Feb 22, 2008

Great story. Thanks for letting the world know.

Karry Leary on Feb 22, 2008

So it isn't so Obama. I will go to the ends of the world for you Obama and jump off a bridge for you.

NotMyVote on Feb 22, 2008

The almost perfect candidate, the not so perfect story.

Renee on Feb 22, 2008

I am a Hillary supporter and as much as I would like her to win the nomination, I wouldn't want her to win it this way. I respect Obama and think that he is an intelligent man and I hope the story is not true as a lot of people worship him and this would crush them. Hill4Prez but, Obama not guilty.

Dave on Feb 22, 2008

Thanks for making this public, you have courage for reporting this, this story needs to be told....

Disappointed - BARACK how could on Feb 22, 2008

How can he do this? Their are people who have put faith, trust and money into Barack. What makes this so believable is the fact that the the accuser is donating all the polygraph payment money to an area Minnesota charity. Once, the accusations are proven, I bet the others will come forward trying to collect money, fame, etc. Addictions to alcohol, drugs, or casual sex have destroyed so many lives, when will people learn? Barack could have been an awesome leader, now this crops up. This really sucks!

Rex on Feb 22, 2008

I think you actually scooped the mainstream media on this one. My bet is that these allegations turn out to be true.

Isn't Hope Enough? on Feb 22, 2008

Larry has been trying to tell his story for a long time, but no one would listen. In a matter of days, things are about to change. After the polygraph testing, Obama will have yet one more piece of evidence piled up against him.

If you hear all of the interviews (Jeff Rense, The Right Perspective, The Jim Sumpter Show)and follow this story closely, you soon find out that this is a sincere man that is not looking for anything to gain personally from his story.

Far too many people put Obama up on a pedestal and treated him like a God. The problem is...it is impossible for someone to meet the standards that go with this status.

Most politicians portray confidence with humbleness. Barrack was getting star treatment and immunity from the press. He got cocky and arrogant. What will he do now?

I fully expect Obama to ignore this story as long as possible, forever perhaps. As the evidence mounts up, however, the pressure will be on Obama more than ever.

Though the main stream media has refused to report the story so far, the powerful internet force can't be controlled by the media entirely. We have learned a tough lesson here...the truth seems to surface no matter how many times you try to bury it!

Righteous on Feb 22, 2008

Just report the truth! Nothing but the truth!!

Sam on Feb 22, 2008

The Obama supporters can do nothing but slam Larry Sinclair by calling him names like "trailer trash," "nut job" etc. based on their own interpretation of surface details and your own desire to see him become president. Come ON people! Our leaders must be scrutinized below the surface and Larry Sinclair isn't running for office - Obama is. If this story has any credibility, the truth will come out... and a crack smoking president ain't what this country needs - not even if he's a gifted motivational speaker, which he is. But, I am not one of the sheeple who really believes that the sun shines out of his ass.

George on Feb 22, 2008

I heard about this already, Larry said on a radio interview that he had mental problems as a child.

Soldier of Christ on Feb 22, 2008

Now, if you can just get it on the cable media- it might be believed. Your magazine is interesting but most people see it as a tal-mag, and if we are to believe this story, you should have put Obama's face as large as Doris Day and maybe then you would have many buying it.

Anonymous on Feb 22, 2008

Guess I can't expect much from a tabloid. If you want something really worth reading, google this: "I Refuse to Buy into the Obama Hype (now a supporter)"

Mike on Feb 22, 2008

I guess we have to buy the magazine to read the story?

Rachel on Feb 22, 2008

I LOVE Doris Day. She is still my all time favorite star.

Anonymous on Feb 22, 2008

Retarded! The accuser, I mean.

pb on Feb 22, 2008

I believe this story. Also the one
about Retzko. I also believe Sinclair is saying he got drugs from Obama. Oprah has tied the hands of the press ..no one has
done investigative reporting on
this young man...I beleive the story and I believe its finally
Time the truth be told.

Lynne on Feb 22, 2008

I totally believe it, I know LarrySinclair and he is just trying to get the truth out about
Obama, this guy is running for president of our country and we all need to try as hard as we can to find out the truth about him.
America does not know it at this point. It is startling and totally a dealbreaker for Americans.

alp on Feb 22, 2008


This story is true
but it is certain to include drugs!
Mr Obama has a past Oprah tied the hands of the press ...she said to
her audience for years the ones
who made her rich that she would
never be political..she is political she went aganist women
and censored the press...to keep
the truth from being known about
HER candidate.

juloa on Feb 22, 2008

IF this is true, then Obama is done. I think the story has gone mainstream already.

a clue that the larry sinclair story is about to go mainstream

MARANIE on Feb 22, 2008

I HAVE SEEN LARRY SINCLAIR'S VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE AND READ THE ACCOUNTS AT WHITEHOUSE.COM, CLEVELAND LEADER AND WORLD NET DAILY. THE MAN APPEARS CREDIBLE. VOTERS NEED TO BE MADE AWARE THAT THESE ACCUSATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE AND THAT A LAWSUIT HAS BEEN FILED. THANKS GLOBE FOR STEPPING UP!

Anonymous on Feb 22, 2008

Larry sinclair has taken the polygraph, and I believe he will pass. Thank You Larry!!

tj on Feb 23, 2008

i beleive this man! obama is sneaky looking and i always suspected he was hiding something,but i also beleive that this is only the tip of the iceberg! he is just to good to be true,and in the real world that is always an omen.

Mandy on Feb 23, 2008

I have seen this on the internet for weeks, and I have been so irritated that it has not been exposed until now. Larry Sinclair has filed a lawsuit; this is legitimate news. Dems deserve to know about this allegation BEFORE the primaries end, not after it. This is important because the Dems need to know what the Repubs will use.

Jenn on Feb 23, 2008



The media wont touch the Larry Sinclair story because they know he’s a fraud with no evidence.

Obama Accuser Larry Sinclair has a Criminal Record

The current issue of the supermarket tabloid Globe (March 3,2008)) devotes two full pages to the lurid drug and sex allegations of Larry Sinclair. The Globe notes that “Sinclair has provided no evidence to back up his outrageous Obama stories.”

Although Sinclair has provided no evidence to back up his outrageous Obama stories, the 46-year old man tells GLOBE that he’s spent time in prison in Florida, Arizona and Colorado on credit card fraud and other charges.

He also admits trafficking in cocaine and marijuana and “moving” people from Mexico to the United States.

He says he’s been disabled since a “work-related” accident in 2001 and has now been diagnosed with a brain tumor and given “a little more than a year to live.

This is just an attempt to smear Obama, who has been known to be pretty square and always has loved woman. In fact Obama is smarter than that.

Funny as to who was pushing this story… well the fanatic conspiracy theorist (ron paul supporters) not directed at the sane Ron Paul supporters, just the nutty ones.

Mad they can’t find dirt on Obama, who they have been bashing forever. Keep searching craigslist and offering money for dirty on Obama.

lonnie on Feb 23, 2008

I'm not suprised at all. Nore will I be when he's in office and our soldiers in up leaving Iraq for Africa. I read where his church supports the Palistanian orginization and that his Pastor honored and went to Lybia with Louis Farrakhan to meet with Moammar Gadhafi. His Pastor told the N.Y. times that if people found out about it, "His Jewish support will dissapear quicker than a snowball in hell." Why hasn't people heard about this, befor they had the chance to vote? Someone need to tell the country.
You can find this artiacal if you go to his church's website a click on missions. Thank you.

joe on Feb 23, 2008

It's about time .....the media start picking this up

Tim on Feb 23, 2008

I cannot believe The Globe is going to be the first major mainstream media source to break this story. For those of you just hearing about it, Larry Sinclair just took a Polygraph about this. The results will soon be posted on Whitehouse dot com. This will be an incredibly big story this week that will probably derail Obama's candidacy.

Xyxox on Feb 23, 2008

This is a ridiculous lie. Larry Sinclair is a mental patient.

H Eugene Morgan on Feb 23, 2008

If this story is true, which wouldn't surprise me, it will probably kept out of the headlines. I think it should be addressed, but the media is courting Obama and trashing Hillary, which they deny. I hope it is investigated. Look what they did to Mc cain.

Jackie on Feb 23, 2008

Hmm. This is very common, the "down-low" lifestyle. It's unfortunate for the women who live with these men.

susan osborn on Feb 23, 2008

Is there any truth to this or not?? If so, the American People need to know the character of the man who is likely to be our next President. Why is this not being investigated and either proven to be true or false??

iodine on Feb 23, 2008

WELL i KNEW IF WE WAIT LONG ENOUGH, THE REAL OBAMA WOULD SHOW UP, JUST HAD TO WAIT FOR SOME OF THE COKE TO WARE OFF.
SO NOW WEW KNOW WHO YOU REALLY ARE JUST ANOTHER COKE HEAD IN SEARCH OF A NEW THRILL, WE MUST NOT PERMIT THE WHITE HOUSE BE YOUR NEXT THRILL.

outlawales on Feb 23, 2008

i also thought he seemed a little feminine

grace on Feb 23, 2008

i hope this will force the mainstream media to cover this story

Jack on Feb 23, 2008

I believe it! Get this story out to the mainstream media NOW!

fiona on Feb 23, 2008

Thank you for having the guts to make this Obama story public.

John Bryans Fontaine on Feb 23, 2008

The Neo and Theo-Fascist Right are so desperate to stop Obama, having to rely so totally, on an individual who is a drug taking and ( likely ) dealing c*ck-sucker with a long history of fraud and of mental illness. It’s even more hilarious when these reactionaries claim that Larry Sinclair’s integrity is greater than the New York Times and the MSM. This is the equivalent of stating that Hitler had far greater morality than Roosevelt.

Dh on Feb 23, 2008

How come this is not on other news. And if this is true he needs to go. We don't need him. The enemies said the next time they attack the US it will be though our government. And I think that is through Obama. He is a Muslim.

Linda on Feb 23, 2008

It's about time this was brought out thank you Globe. Now maybe the main news media will get their heads out of his rear, and do the right thing. Thanks again.

Snowy on Feb 24, 2008

Has anyone checked out his handwriting? No one seems to have a sample of his actual writing. You should look at what they say about what his signature reveals! Why don't you do a story on this?

DAVID FOREST on Feb 24, 2008

What is Obama waiting for?
HE SHOULD RESIGNED IMMMMMMIDIATELY!

i dont like Hilary and crazy McCain either

THIS IS DISGUSTING!!
I AM NOT VOTING ANYMORE!!!

actually, maybe,
i will check this Ron guy

w. anderson on Feb 24, 2008

IF THIS IS TRUE AB OUT OBAMA I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR HIM. IT IS SCANDALOUS AND WE MUST FIND OUT IF IT IS TRUE. ONCE DRUGS ARE INVOLVED(AND WE REALLY DON'T KNOW THE FULL SCOPE OF THAT) I'M NOT SURPRISED. I ALWAYS FELT THERE IS SOMETHING HE IS HIDING

Audrey Warrus on Feb 24, 2008

How come the mainstream media hasn't said one word about this yet - like cable news.

AlwaysforHillary on Feb 24, 2008

I am SO GRATEFUL that your paper has come out with this, but it is about time the mainstream media and national newspapers come out with it, too!!!

This guy is a FRAUD and would be disatrous for this country! I pray this is true and destroys his chances for winning the nomination.

Hillary Clinton is the most qualified and she DESERVES to win!!!

concerened voter on Feb 25, 2008

I want to know how true this story is if this is true don't we as americans have the right to know. Why has the msm ignored this.

Toe Knee on Feb 25, 2008

I just wonder why this is not broadcasted on T.V. I only have seen this on Websites and probably will be out on you magazine. I hope this gets out and gets resolved quickly. We need to know if this is true or not. This can decide who will be the Democratic person running for the Presidency of the United States of America.

Thanks,

Toe Knee

Yvonne on Feb 25, 2008

I's still vote for him, He can't be any worst than the lying murderous thief in office now.

Mirian Lockey on Feb 26, 2008

Everyone - who read this article. Let's make sure you ahve the facts. Don't let the naysayers prevent you from voting.
the buy is a convict who is looking for money. You bet the Republicans put him up to this. Don't be fooled guys. Stay the course.

Miriam.

Cindy Folsom on Feb 26, 2008

This guy was paid to smear Obama. Obama would not be that stupid to get himself involved in anything like this. Thsi guy is smart and would seet clear of deadbeats like Sinclair. Come on guys, check the Ron paul group or the Republicians who is directing the smear. Do you believe a guy who has an ambition for running as presie=dent in the future would pup himself in such a compromising position??????

Kristen on Feb 27, 2008

Hey, Larry Sinclair failed the polygraph test that he requested. www.whitehouse.com Just scroll down for details and pics

Ken on Feb 27, 2008

Larry Sinclair is a mentally ill career criminal, drug dealer, con artist and ex-convict. He goes on youtube and makes outlandishly implausible allegations about a prominent presidential candidate without a single piece of corroborating evidence. He fails two polygraphs. He claims to be in possession of hotel and limo receipts but refuses to produce them. He claims ti be in "constant contact" with the alleged limo driver from this sordid episode but refuses to name him. After he fails his polygraph, his accusations and conspiracy theories become increasingly bizarre yet (as always) remain completely unsubstantiated. On his youtube page he begins hitting his supportres up for miney with prmises that he'll be able to double it. He also becomes enraged at his skeptics and posts profanity laden threats of violence against those who continue to ask for proof of a single one of his alegations.

This is the "story" so far.

And people wonder why no one in the legitimate media has picked this up? It's because there's nothing to it, that's why. An accusation, all by itself, means nothing.. Anubody can make them. I can go on youtube right now and say I sacrificed kittens with John McCain before participating with him in a meth fuled, gay orgy. Should teh MSM cover that too? I would have just as much evidence as Larry has.

Unless and until Larry produces this evidence or this witness he claims to have, there is simply nothing for the media to cover.

HKQ on Feb 27, 2008

Where is the PROOF???

Nikki on Feb 27, 2008

He failed the lie detector test.
I hope the Globe devotes a cover section to the truth as well as spectulation.

OBAMA aint like OSAMA on Feb 28, 2008

I dont believe this I think its just another way to get Hillary elected. I mean my whole family voted for Obama. Even the Republicans!!!!!!!!

HARRYB on Feb 28, 2008

FINALLY!! somebody decided to be brave enough to mention this.. cannot believe how "squashed" this story is.. MUM's the word! why is everybody protecting this guy?

Regina on Feb 28, 2008

Judging by what I've learned, Obama appears to be less than qualified to become the leader of the free world. Larry Sinclair is the "real deal". Thank you, Globe Magazine, for running with the story. I applaud your efforts and dearly hope the main media presents this to the public...so they can make informed decisions.

Hillary! Drop out of the race and go home to take care of your husband. Bill looks terrible these days, he looks way older than his years. That red face and purple bulbous nose. Go take care of him and forget running for President. That's another thing women do besides trying to break through the glass ceiling -- they take care of their families, children and husbands!

If this Sinclair guy is a known drug user, he could have used drugs to pass the polygraph. I saw Sinclair's videos. This is a man seething with hatred and contempt. I think he just wants to take down someone famous with him before he dies--he'll fail.

Fox, CNN, MSNBC, New York Times, etc.--they just have been GIVING obama another "pass"--the truth needs to come out, the cocaine issue alone in 1999 needs either confirming or denouncing--either way INFORM the American electorate so they can decide!! Does anyone know when the Minnesota courts are going to hear this filed suit??

I don't believe Larry Sinclair, I
think he is telling a whopper for Obama's enemies. I think that Obama is a good man and would make a fine President.

Kenya on Jan 02, 2009

Obama is a democrat with integrity issues. If truly born in the U.S., then produce an authentic document that proves it. But that won't happen because there isn't one. This goes to the moral decay of society today.

I wonder who Obama will throw under the bus for this story.

MissTickly on Mar 04, 2009

Larry was thrown in jail after his press conference in May by none other than Beau Biden. This was BEFORE his daddy became Obama's VP pick. Of course Larry's story is credible. His unlawful arrest all but proves it. (BTW, ALL the charges were dropped months later.)
