Vanished: Obama exposer disappears off Net

Owner vows: 'This guy is coming down, there's nothing anybody can do about it' By Joe Kovacs Posted: July 29, 2009 10:57 pm Eastern © 2009 WorldNetDaily TheObamaFile.com, an extensive information depot questioning Barack Obama's eligibility to hold the office of president, has vanished off the Internet, and its publisher believes the political end is also near for the commander in chief. "This guy is coming down, there's nothing anybody can do about it," declares Parker Shannon, a 70-year-old retiree who has documented alleged violations by Obama for the past two years from his home in suburban Boston. But Shannon stresses his decision to shut down the site had nothing to do with any kind of pressure from the government. "The Obama camp didn't get to me. They can't," he told WND. "What got to me is my fellow Americans, the cheap bastards." "I'm disappointed," he said, explaining he lives on Social Security and a small amount of retirement money. "I just am tired of doing what I'm doing, and I get 50 e-mails a day telling me I'm a great patriot and they're praying for me. I don't want to hear it. Just send me $10." Shannon says he spent 60 to 70 hours a week on his efforts and received only $240 in the entire two years despite displaying prominent donation buttons. The home page now just has a logo and the words, "Closed. Lack of support." "There was no warning. This is freaky scary. " said Tony Licursi of Kennesaw, Ga., of the sudden shutdown. "There was more info there than [Roman historian] Tacitus could've ever dreamed." [CONTINUE READING]

Note to Parker Shannon: I only wish you had read, "Don't Give Up" before deciding to shut down your great site. If you decide to revive the site, I would be happy to donate free webhosting space to you, at least for the time I am allowed to stay alive on the web, which I hope will be awhile. But, the one thing I would have to wonder is, are you in it for your beliefs, or for the money? No, I understand, it's not about making money, but I do know that there are costs involved. And I do know that Socialist Security is barely enough to eat, let alone buy the gas to get to doctors appointments, etc, and buy groceries, and keep on the internet, etc. Well, all I can say is that I would have been willing to help you with some free consulting, because what you were doing was valiant, and I respect you very much for what you were doing. I just wish I would have found out about your site BEFORE you called it quits. There is the one thing that you may not have thought about before calling it quits: You were adding longevity in your life by putting so much time into your purpose. And, I know, as you can tell from that piece I wrote (mentioned above), there are times that we can feel unrewarded for our efforts. Parker, should you see this post, please contact me!
