yes, the Freudian slip observation was mentioned several posts ago, as it was in comments about the DNA statement.
“slip of the tongue motivated by and revealing some unconscious aspect of the mind”
My point is that “the unconscious aspect of mind” Gibb’s is revealing right now is FEAR. This is the second time in a short span. He is seriously psychologically conflicted — approach-avoidance; fight-flight. And, depending on what he does or does not know, probably struggling with doubt or guilt.
From Rendell’s statement is does look like he was supposed to use the birther crazies line to deflect heat from the townhall fiascos...so we know why he brought it up, but what the Freudian slip revealed is FEAR. That is an encouraging sign.
I made a comment that I heard Zero state “We have the law on our side” when questioned about the BC issue during the campaign. (No I can’t find the source, it is just embedded in my memory). His lawyers stated in Hollister v Zero that revealing his long form would be “embarrassing”. So could it be that he knows who his bio dad is, and so does Gibbs, and will claim that Obama Sr. adopted him, making him a NBC all along?
Speaking of slips, didn’t BkO once make a slip similar: “that his mother was in Kenya a couple of days before he was born?”
Does anyone remember that or know the source?....Is it on the “long” thread too?
