yeah right. if you say so.
I wonder if they will release the entire video or and edited version? My guess, the latter.
you could put out a video of Obama raping a little girl and the lame scream media will explain that he was just helping a girl try to find her cat and it’s just those nasty racist republican’s making “shiite” muslim up.
If there is to be a big meaty October surprise, it better be big and meaty to where not even the corrupt leftist media can sit by and ignore it.
"All eyes are on the LA Times right now — so if the tape sits in GOP hands, it’s far better for the Times to be pressured to release it on its own, and to do so at a time when the narrative shouldn’t be about Obama’s big informercial, but instead about Obama sitting at dinner with terrorists, laughing and having a grand old time while speaker after speaker calls for the destruction of Israel and the death of all Israelis. Because that’s what we’ve heard went on at this dinner."
VIVA LA PUMA !!!!!!!!!!!!
If the LA Times is the only source with that tape, they will not show it. They will only release it if someone else does first.
The reporter said he’s not releasing the video. If Republicans had it it would be all over TV and Radio. Color me skeptical.
I have also wondered about Obama pushing early voting so hard. They have a regular get out the vote effort on this with vans carting people to the polls. There are a couple of reasons for this, the main one being to insulate against an October surprise.
I doubt this video just shows Obama sitting beside Ayers, as that could be brushed off as a chance event. However, friendly banter, or even worse, some positive verbal statement by Obama about Ayers would be poisonous.
It would reveal Obama as not a radical, but a liar. America will elect a radical, but they do not like liars. Voters want to trust their president. Once Obama's trust is destroyed, the voter opens their mind to the claims Obama is a radical. The air goes out of the campaign. The cult collapses. All the other Ayers stories suddenly get airplay. The socialist label sticks. The campaign goes into free-fall.
This post makes the key point. The video is not about Khalidi, it is about Ayers.
I do agree that a picture of the Obamas attending and associating freely with Ayers and Dohrn would have a very strong effect. Not sure if the speakers will be quite as direct as this post claims, but I’m sure teh tone was very anti Israel and pro Palestinian.
Also agree the LA Times is hiding this for a reason and will not release it. Which, considering they are a NEWS paper, is quite twisted.
There are more skeletons in Obama’s closet than in the closet of a Halloween haunted house.
McCain has just called for the tape to be released, so he has set the stage. I really hope the GOP has a copy.
Me, too...how do they know the tape sits in GOP hands?
Look for it to be released this coming Friday around 9pm, just after the network teevee shows
Strong public pressure needs to be brought to bear directly onto the Obama campaign NOW.
The theme is the COVER UP. Why can’t the public see the video, NOW?
The issue should not be just the LA Times hiding the video from the public — the issue(s) who was at that dinner, what was said, why doesn’t the Obama campaign call for the video to be released to “show they have nothing to hide” etc. etc.
Publicly pressure the Obamanation to address this and either claim the video is completely innocuous or else have to apologize for it.
Let’s get the whole blogosphere and conservative media into the act — and try to get Gov. Palin to ask what happened at that dinner that we are not being told about??
who were the speakers, what was said, what precisely did Obama say, WHO was at the table with the Obamas etc.....
If Ayers/Dohrn and/or the Khalidis were at the same table with the Obamas, that alone will be more difficult to explain away. IF anything on the video shows the Obamas joking around with Ayers or Dohrn, the Khalidis etc., especially while hostile remarks are being made against Israel, that will be very hard to explain away.
We must look beyond only the LA Times and try to raise the hear all over. Also, if the LA Times has the vid then some other(s) have it too, since someone gave it to them. WHO recorded the video, what copies exist, etc.
It maybe wishful thinking on my part but the wording which could have been a simple semantically error which I read said the la times had a “copy” of the tape. My guess is whomever had the original still has it because of the value (blackmail potential to just mention one value) could still be out there marketing it. Thus it would be a great tool to force events when needed (best timing). I can only hope this or something similar is the case.
“Look for it to be released this coming Friday around 9pm, just after the network teevee shows.”
Why not released Thursday? Friday is high school football night....and date night...do you have any proof? Or is this a hunch??
