Did Edwards say what I thought he said? (Video at #31)
Self

Posted on 09/27/2007 5:26:57 PM PDT by cjmae

A lib buddy of mine called me and told me to turn on MTV. John Edwards was taking questions from young students. I wasn't but half way paying attention when I heard a young lady ask him something about his solution for inner city crime. Edwards said something like we can't build enough prisons to hold all of the criminals or eventualy there will be no black people left because they would either be in jail or dead. I'm paraphrasing of course and I don't want to start something that's not accurate but if that is what he said that has got to be either one of the most racist or stupidest things I've ever heard a politician say. Did anyone else hear it?

Right, if a Republican said that he would be fried.

Al Sharpton and his megaphone would already be at his house.

If you have the Firefox browser, they have an add-on named download helper that will let you save the video.

I’ve saved lots of You Tube stuff with it.

This video is truly amazing. The Student asked him what he was going to do about inner-city violence. He answered by blaming Black Men for the violence and then blamed society for causing black men to commit crimes.

You can get it on eBay. I know because we bought it for my Mom, who looooves that movie.

Disney released it for a short time overseas, but have no plans to release it in the US (surprise, surprise). Here is another website where you can get the DVD http://officialsongofthesouth.com/

"I wonder how someone can download that stream. It sure won’t be there long."

It is quite simple. After viewing the video, go to Windows Explorer, find C:\Documents and Settings\~[YOUR USER NAME]\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files, sort by Last Accessed with the most recent at the top, find the FLV file (usually ends in .flv) and copy it to a permanent directory.
You will need a .flv media viewer to watch it and there is a free one at this link.

I have searched major news outlets this morning. Nothing. Just like I thought. Has anyone seen this on a different outlet?

I emailed Drudge, Little Green Footballs and Noel Sheppard and Newsbusters last night. So far nothing... nada... zilch.

THIS is why we (conservatives) are not as successful as getting the message out into the public as some of the lefty groups. We can talk about it all we want but until we get someone that will consistently call out the Dems on their statements and behaviors, we will continue to be in the minority.
