Apparently, it's this video, at least that's where the screenshot is from.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofbUK85bnwY

So a video which has been on the internet for 5 years and half where Obama made a perfectly legitimate speech at some university is supposed to be a game changer?

The right-wing media can turn anything into a controversy.

Two minutes in to the video, and nothing interesting so far.

Take the bullet out!

President Obama is done. Finished. Romney will win in a landslide. Massachussetts included.

I hope you're being sarcastic.

How insidious. It's obvious that this video has been locked deep within Obama's secret campaign vault. ... What's that? The video's been online since 2007? Hmmm.

Sure, the Chicago Sun Times has a transcript on their website of the speech. (Alas, I cannot post links yet, or I'd post it.) Doesn't matter. Drudge wouldn't bust out his blaring sirens for a dud. Of course not.

Its been on the internet for a long time. This is nothing.


I must have missed the Rev Wright quote that Drudge is pushing cause I didn't hear it.

New DRUDGE update: "'My pastor, the guy who puts up with me, counsels me, listens to my wife complain about me. He's a friend and a great leader. Not just in Chicago, but all across the country'.."

Clearly there's new footage not included in the Youtube video. We're in for a real shellacking.

As long as it stays inside the conservative bubble, good for them. That will only make them more infuriated if Obama wins. Smiley

So, so true. It's just the usual tricks from the Fox crowd.

Though, apparently the Youtube version is an "edited" version and they're releasing the full tape tonight. Feel the suspense.

Frankly who cares what he said.  The real issue is that he was disingenuous about his relationship with Wright and his political team tried to cover it up. His words dont matter. But the story could get traction considering the potential Libia coverup.

I watched the tape. It is actually from 2007 and Obama was talking to black ministers at a black college.  His main point is that things like the LA Riots and Katrina had roots in poverty and that we shouldn't be wasting money on a war in Iraq. He actually says that Bush Katrina response was not about race, just "colorblind incompetence".

Here is the bit they will try and grab, here is the most racist thing he said, removing context.

He never mentions white people or Whities or honkies. But perhaps people will twist this to how he is going to start demanding reparations or something.

This seems kind of like Elizabeth Dole's godless Americans. And might have a similar effect.

I agree, if anything, that sort of thing is helpful when it comes to many voters.

But it's the black man's God.   It's false doctrine that plays to out of context biblical quotes about the poor inheriting yadda yadda and loving thy neighbor.

although it appears Obama didn't stick to the script exactly

I suppose they're just trying to find something, anything to sink the Obama campaign with. Might as well go back to 2008 and pull out the Jeremiah Wright card. It's idiotic yes, but the true believers will eat it up. Everyone else? Meh.
