Will Drudge finally release the Whitey Tape tonight?!?

I think, if anything, the real controversy is the fake accent he's using during his sermon.  That could make voters think that he's disingenuine about who he is.  It makes him sound like Jesse Jackson - the man he shunned during the 2008 campaign.

Also, he fully embraces Reverend Wright.  He pretty much disowned him during the 2008 campaign.  Even Reverend Wright said that he would have to disassociate with him in order to win the election.

But yes, I agree with most of the dems on this - if this is the video, its not going to do anything to change the race.  Only the debate will do that, as Romney stands on the same stage with the President looking presidential.  

Also, shame on the Daily Caller calling this an exclusive release if it's been on youtube for years - same to Drudge and Hannity.  The only video I'm interested in is the Khalidi video - that one certainly has something damaging to Obama and that's why it's being protected.

Obama is not the first politician to take on an accent while speaking, it's part of politics. In his case, it probably was just him slipping into urban vernacular because of the environment he was in, black people do that sometimes. I've done it before, it's just a natural change in tone that occurs sometimes.

Of course its part of politics, but his image, part of what allowed him to win in 2008, was to not be a typical politician, not to play those games.  Also, it's one thing to be in a bar with a group of friends 2 feet away from you, and another thing to deliver a prepared speech.  You can tell that he is trying hard to fake the accent with the way he strains - its the same look someone makes when trying to fake a British or Australian accent without the proper training.

This certainly isn't the only time Obama has used his "blackified accent" in public. Hell, I've seen Hillary Clinton use one in front of black crowds... it's goofy and pretty phony but it isn't a big deal.

As for the actual comments he made, I can't see how anything he said would come off as controversial except with people who were already voting against him.

They are controversial, but you're right, they won't come off as such.  It just proves that Obama has a chip on his shoulder and wants to make people pay.  It doesn't matter what group it is, he will exploit it for his own gain.  I must say it's quite smart though, easy to form a mob when all you do is talk about how people are taking advantage of them and they need to get vengeance.  

Everything about this guy is pure vengeance and rage.  I'm not quite sure that it isn't some sort of divine justice that we have him as president destroying the country.  Our sin of slavery comes back on us or more importantly, our chickens coming home to roost.

The very fact that he is president makes blacks equal to whites in this country.  It is an affirmation of the American dream.  There is no unbalancing, no place that a black man or woman can't reach.  Overt insitutional racism ceased to exist the moment he became president.  At that moment, the president should have used his opportunity to lift blacks out of poverty by ending this us against them talk, ending programs that make them dependent on government for every need, ending affirmative action and cracking down on gang violence in this country.  I mean for heaven's sake, you have his own city, Chicago, immersed in the worst gang violence in the country.  His former chief of staff, Rahm Emmanuel, is mayor and barely lifts a finger by saying "please just don't hurt the kids".  Obama could have created fundamental change in this country.  If that man were conservative, if he used his talents God gave him for good instead of evil, he would have succeeded.  He would have united this country in a way it hasn't been since the 80s.

LOL at the idea that the country was united in the 80s...

...as to the rest of your garbage...

It was united in the 80s.  There was a small minority that opposed Reagan and opposed the direction of the country.  You can't win over everyone, but it was the most united the country had been for 40-50 years since WWII.  There is nothing incorrect about what I said.  He could have been everything he said he was in 2008, a uniting figure that bridged the divide in race in this country.  He's not.  In fact, he and his allies in the media have been doing their best to keep that divide alive.
