Tinfoil Attacks - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

There have been some very outrageous claims this election many of which should qualify as conspiracy theories. I'd like to make a list of them here. Please post the most ridiculous claims made by the media, the campaigns, or even bloggers (as long as they gained a little traction).

I'll start:

Obama didn't write his first memoir Bill Ayres did!
When Obama was 10 he was mentored by a pedophile which likely means Obama is a pedophile and his kids should be taken away from him...
Either of the candidates are a Manchurian candidate.
Obama is a muslim terrorist.

Yesterday on Talk of the Nation:

"Obama will suppress the votes of white people and suppress our rights and force a national apology and reperations for descendents of slaves."
