Tea Party Nation, one of the largest and most-active Tea Party groups in the nation, on Saturday published an article that suggests President Obama gave Iran the highly-publicized missing drone, and insists that Obama did not kill Osama bin Laden earlier this year, as he died in 2003. The post, though not written by the often-incorrect and highly-polarizing Tea Party Nation founder Judson Phillips, was emailed to Tea Party Nation subscribers by Phillips.
This incident with Iran getting one of our top secret military drones, has been puzzling me since it happened. It’s vaguely reminiscent of the alleged killing of Osama Bin Laden, with no evidence shown to the American people. ( Personally, I think he’s been dead since around 2003, have seen no evidence otherwise, and think Obama staged the incident just so he could take credit. People prove they’re alive by showing up, and he hadn’t shown up in any way, in years. )

So this whole thing isn’t making sense, and I don’t trust this President. I wouldn’t trust him enough to invite him to my home. If private property rights are still in effect, I wouldn’t allow him in my home!
And claiming “socialists and gangs have been infiltrating our military now,” someone writing under the name Jane Galt states that Obama may have “passed down direct orders through a trusted chain of command, to land this drone in Iran, possibly sparking a war with Iran, and handing over our top secret military technology to them and their Russian and Chinese allies.”
Brian Tashman at Right Wing Watch adds,
Not to be outdone, Larry Klayman, the founder of Judicial Watch and the current head of Freedom Watch, also claimed that Obama may have given the drone to Iran because the Iranian government was financing his presidential campaign. “I believe that Iran has paid off Obama with campaign contributions to win the next election,†Klayman said, “This could well turn out to be the terrorist trial of the decade.â€
