Obama used terrorist Ayers as a ghostwriter

Nope they don't at all explain why the validity/accuracy of the "Cusum Technique" is relevant to the article or the claims made in the article.
 
Hey Ayers hated that evil zionist joo Henry Kissinger and his puppet Richard Nixon during the Vietnam war. So you hate Ayers even if Ayers hated Kissinger? :D
 
I think post 48 and 69 sum it up.

Or I could grunt my approval or disapproval based on a quick skim of the article or even based on only the source as others do here. But had the impression that JREF was a forum where discussion was encouraged.

Baltar, as I have repeatedly said, I would be very interested in a thread on cusum analysis. The proper forum is probably Science, Mathematics, and Technology. I think it would go interesting places.

I think it would be interesting too. Contrary to what many people here think, my main interest in the cusum technique was for the application discussed in the article (and therefore relevant to this thread). As I have said today, I don't believe it is adequate for the task. I am still interested in the cusum technique approach as applied in general, but after looking into it, I'm wondering if there's a better technique that has been developed. If so, I would still like to see that approach applied to Obama's & Ayers' writings. I'll start a thread where you suggest.
 
Corrected for accuracy:
According to Cashill, a whacked out conspiracy theorist, Ed Gold, an expert in image and signal processing, etc, did do a more thorough cusum analysis

Google searches for "Ed Gold" cusum and "Edward Gold" cusum turn up nothing by the way.

Maybe Gold exists, and maybe he is who Cashill says he is. But in the meantime, "according to" is your friend, especially when you're blindly parroting the likes of Cashill.

I'm having a little difficulty finding the post quoted above. I'm sure it's not been altered................

Math is not my strong suit, but the idea that cusum can identify one writer over another is pretty far-fetched, in my opinion. People with similar core berliefs, similar likes and dislikes, similar education levels, similar professions and similar regional connections are going to speak and write in pretty much the same manner, phrase things similarly, even pronounce things similarly.

Ayers and Obama are intellectuals, with a liberal point of view and they live in Chicago.

Figure out yourself whether they will will use the same words and sentence structure when describing a traffic accident.

First of all, do not misquote me.

I have also done the same google search you did. If you read what I write rather than changing what I write to fit your warped view you'll see that I said there's no word on if Gold has released anything. (a Google search is not exhaustive btw, which is why I did not say that he hasn't released anything).

Calling Cashill my friend and saying that I'm blindly parroting him again shows you have not read what I wrote. I discredited his approach and agreed with others that Cashill's evidence amounts to 'doodly-squat'. That I did not have the knee-jerk reaction of instant disgust of the article does not mean Cashill and I are palling around. I have taken a completely open minded, unbalanced response to the OP and it is incredible how completely foreign the concept is to you people.

I'd suggest stepping back from the computer, breathing slowly, counting down from 10. Maybe even a nap, so you can come back and see things more clearly as they are, and not as they appear to be through your emotional tantrums.

:D I'll bet you can't find one member of this forum for whom it isn't 100% clear which words are yours and which are mine.

You're inattentive to what I wrote.

Calling Cashill my friend...
Again with the inattentiveness. The words "according to" are your friend, not Cashill.

I wrote that and saying that I'm blindly parroting him again shows you have not read what I wrote. I discredited his approach and agreed with others that Cashill's evidence amounts to 'doodly-squat'.
Yes, I saw that before. (Congratulations.)

That doesn't change the fact that you stated something as fact (the Gold business) when all you had was Cashill's word on the matter.

If you don't like having your mistakes misrepresentations pointed out then be more careful with your words.

Really? Your link does NOT lead to Obama's writings but to an article discussing a couple of his essay questions.

So-

1. The content of your link is unrelated to the wording of the link.
2. Your conclusion is supported by the following facts you provided -

None.

Professor Lawrence Tribe probably wrote the answers to Obama’s law questions.

Tribe wants Obama to appoint him to the Supreme Court.
Obama, a total fraud.

got some backup for that other than what the crickets told you?
 
Just logic and reason.

Cam I get a laughing dog here?

Nothing has been presented that shows Obama has written anything of real substance.

There is a copyright in his name and no actual evidence to the contrary. He is articulate and has a very good vocabulary. He is also universally recognized as unusually bright. You're talking through your trousers.
 
I provided the answer concerning Obama’s alleged brilliant legal mind.

And your position is as ill-informed as any other you have expressed here.

This is a forum of skeptics isn’t it?

Which, given your apparent belief that Obama is a lesser being than yourself through a fluke of biology leads me to wonder why you are here.
 
Sure. Just as soon as someone looks into my idea that John McCain really died in captivity and has been animated by Vietnamese acrobats that live inside his skin all this time. At the very least, McCain should submit to a thorough medical examination that is broadcast live around the world to eliminate this from the realm of possibility.

How is this for a more realistic example, than your pink elephants example:

You are married. Your wife makes her money from writing books. You are very proud of her accomplishments and admire her as a person. Now suppose you get an anonymous phone call from someone saying your wife has been cheating on you. AND to make matters worse, this person said that all that money you have been getting from your wife's books is not from the fact of her writing prowess, but a result of her lover, who has been helping her write them!

I bet you would then look into THAT, wouldn't you.
