Tucker Carlson wrote: “A man who claims he had sex with Barack Obama in 1999 tells his story.”
Carlson said: “In 2008 it became really clear that Barack Obama had been having sex with men and smoking crack and a guy came forward, Larry Sinclair, and said ‘I’ll sign an affidavit and I’ll take a lie detector’ and he did. Nobody reported it.”
This afternoon, he’s reserved the Holeman Lounge at downtown Washington’s National Press Club
to try to lend his story the legitimacy that comes with national media attention.
Sinclair’s biography, though, may get in the way of that pitch: Public records and court filings reveal that he has a 27-year criminal record, with a specialty in crimes involving deceit. The record includes forgery charges in two states, one of which drew Sinclair a 16-year jail sentence. The Pueblo County, Colo., Sheriff’s Office also has an outstanding warrant for Sinclair’s arrest for forging an acquaintance’s signature and stealing her tax refunds.
In it, Sinclair repeats the claims. He tells the host: “I had given Barack $250 to pay for cocaine, I start putting a line on a CD tray to snort and next thing I know he’s got a little pipe and he’s smoking it.
A bar. A guy. It’s Barack
• $250 of coke. Lines on a tray. Obama on crack.
• Rubbing thighs. Two sexual encounters.
Remember when Larry Sinclair claimed that he performed oral sex on Barrack Obama while they were both on drugs and once he spoke out about it, the DC police immediately, under Joe Biden’s son, arrested him for theft. Sinclair was allegedly contacted by a man named Donald Young who claimed he also had intimate relations with Obama and he told Larry that they would go after him for speaking out. Donald Young was subsequently shot to death in his apartment in Chicago and no one ever solved the case.
Sinclair is familiar to political junkies and reporters as the source of outlandish allegations about Senator Barack Obama, tales that began with sex and drugs and moved on to murder.
The Duluth, Minn., resident is the sort of figure who appears at the margins of every presidential campaign, and both Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton had their own obscure accusers with dramatic allegations. But as the old media ignores him, Sinclair has taken full advantage of the Internet, and a video in which he makes his claims that have been viewed more than 900,000 times on YouTube.
