Another Obama Tape Surfaces
The American Spectator ^ | October 5, 2012 | Jeffrey Lord

Posted on 10/05/2012 5:08:28 AM PDT by Cincinatus' Wife

On the heels of an absolutely miserable debate performance… yet another problem for the Obama campaign.

There's another tape. This time with Jeremiah Wright. And a very curious video.

"Grace and peace be unto you," begins Wright, smiling, his voice calm and low.

It's June 23, 2007 -- a mere 18 days after the now infamous Obama speech at Hampton University that the Daily Caller and the Drudge Report titled as "Obama's Other Race Speech." An angry, racially divisive speech in which Obama effortlessly slides into a Southern accent, shouting "The people down in New Orleans they [the Bush administration and the federal government] don't care about as much!"

The event: The United Church of Christ's 26th General Synod, the bi-annual gathering of UCC pastors and lay leaders from across the country, meeting that year in Hartford, Connecticut. (Note: Full Disclosure: I have served as both president of my local UCC Church Council and as a member of the UCC's Penn Central Conference Board of Directors.)

This time Trinity UCC's Reverend Jeremiah Wright isn't sitting somewhere off camera while receiving accolades from then-Senator Obama. No, this time Wright is front and center to introduce his famous parishioner -- by videotape.

The 40-plus-minute tape begins with the appearance of then-UCC General President, the Reverend John Thomas, taking the stage to announce Obama's appearance. Thomas explains that Reverend Wright will be introducing Obama.

But wait! There's a catch!........

Interestingly, this parallels Obama’s latest attack on Romney as being this “other” Romney. Over and over, Obama’s accusations exactly mirror his own behaviors and faults in an obvious way.I guess this is intentional, but it is a mind trick I am unfamiliar with. How is it supposed to work?

EXCELLENT!

You've hit on it. They always accuse their opposition of what they themselves are are about and doing (their MO).

I think what everyone is missing is the importance of the man beind the curtain.

Axelrod.

If anything crawled out from the sewer, it is he.

A PAC needs to bring up the actual votes in Congress for Katrina aid.

Biden & Obama both voted NO.

Obama voted YES to the Alaska bridge to nowhere, tho!

” Just wondering if Obama loses if he will pull old Jeremmiah Wright out from under that bus?”

I am wondering if “Jerry” will have his own wing in the new digs in Hawaii?

“this parallels Obama’s latest attack on Romney as being this “other” Romney”

“They always accuse their opposition of what they themselves are are about and doing (their MO)”

Another example of this:
Remember all of the accusations from the left accusing GWB as being a puppet, and the puppet masters were Cheney, etc.?

The left accused Republicans, yet it’s obvious obama IS a puppet - and everyone who watched the debate understands this. I believe that’s a huge part of the anger currently on display.

Hannity said there was plenty more to come...seems as though there are enough concerned citizens out there to start leaking these Obama videos to the media.

Romney should be asking where the Khalidi tape is...

I just don’t understand WHY they do this. I don’t know if it is psychological projection and they do not know they are doing it, or if it is something done intentionally. If intentional, I don’t get how it is supposed to work for them. Extremely Progressive types in my personal life do this very same thing. It is as if they have no boundary to realize that they are a separate person from the group.It is like there simply exists two piles of characteristics, one called faults, the other attributes, and they can just glom onto what they want and disown, toss off what they don’t want.

I just know Obama is going to be a worse ex-president than he is a president.

He's going to be Jimmy Carter with a race card....
