Andrew Sullivan Speaks the Truth!

Amazing conversation coming from the wacko left these days:

JOY BEHAR, HOST: OK, Barak Obama may have been coy on the Oprah Show about his 2008 white house run. But new poll numbers show he`s a contender. Oy. (Laughter on the set). But while some are coming into the big tent, others are leaving. More and more are saying the left is wrong. Andrew Sullivan Senior Editor at the Atlantic. And author of the conservative sol is one of them. Ok, welcome to the show, Andrew.

ANDREW SULLIVAN, SENIOR EDITOR, THE ATLANTIC: Thanks Joy.

BEHAR: Do you think there are other skeletons in Barak Obama's closet?

SULLIVAN: Yes.

(LAUGHTER)

BEHAR: You do?

SULLIVAN: I do. I think that the story of Barak Obama has yet to be told.

BEHAR: The real story.

SULLIVAN: I think these books that he produced are essentially works of magical realism. I don`t think he has much relationship with reality. I don`t think he has much relationship with reality. And I think at some point, if journalists do their job and if brave people stand up and tell the truth, we will find out who Barak Obama really is. And we currently don`t know

BEHAR: Well his people are evil and nasty. They are not nice people. They send me nasty mail and everybody else who talks about it. Anything negative about Barak Obama, they get hit with this stuff. You know.

SULLIVAN: Well, he tried -- he wanted to imprison me for even asking questions. Factual questions. I`m not interested in whether he`s a good or bad person. I`m not interested in whether they are evil people around him. I`m interested in truth. What is the truth about this person who was put on the national ticket, having not been vetted in any way, and in which, the press was shut out from having real interaction with him during the campaign and who produced books which are not fact-checked, not vetted, full of obvious errors -

BEHAR: Why is that?

SULLIVAN: That Random House, a major publication has put out without any fact checking what so ever in order to make money. I find the whole thing just bizarre. I find the whole thing of a state senator voting "present" hundreds of times in his first term when he wants to have a career, bizarre. There are so many bizarre questions including this extraordinary story of sitting in Reverend Wright's pews for 20 years without knowing what was being said, which is, on a basis, extraordinarily hard to believe the way he`s told it. Maybe there is some truth there that we don`t know fully know. Or he`s confusing --
