Read Bill Whittle in NRO today:
I happen to know the person who found this audio. It is an individual person, with no more resources than a desire to know everything that he or she can about who might be the next president of the United States and the most powerful man in the world.
I know that this person does not have teams of highly paid professionals, does not work out of a corner office in a skyscraper in New York, does not have access to all of the subtle and hidden conduits of information … who possesses no network television stations, owns no satellite time, does not receive billions in advertising dollars, and has a staff of exactly one.
I do not blame Barack Obama for believing in wealth distribution. That’s his right as an American. I do blame him for lying about what he believes. But his entire life has been applying for the next job at the expense of the current one. He’s at the end of the line now.
I do, however, blame the press for allowing an individual citizen to do the work that they employ standing armies of so-called professionals for. I know they are capable of this kind of investigative journalism: It only took them a day or two to damage Sarah Palin with wild accusations about her baby’s paternity and less time than that to destroy a man who happened to be playing ball when the Messiah decided to roll up looking for a few more votes on the way to the inevitable coronation.
We no longer have an independent, fair, investigative press. That is abundantly clear to everyone — even the press. It is just another of the facts that they refuse to report, because it does not suit them.
Much more at Eject! Eject! Eject!
Levin just mentioned this and credited FR for helping him find it. I’m on a cell phone so I can’t find the Levin thread. But I think it’s worth noting here as well.
All the news media at least had a story on it didn’t they? /sarcasm
Barack the Welfare Pimp
How is it that no network, no newspaper could come up with this audiotape? It was on an NPR station, it should be relatively easy to find. The liberal news media has failed, and in the course of failing, it has misled the American public.
We need to oppose Obama’s socialist plans. We need to become Joe the Plumbers.
The kids at polestra have no resources either.
Those kids did what a well paid Ohio Secretary of State and Atty General could not do.
Actually, FOX was reporting this around 9 am this morning. I was stunned that it made it there!
In their arrogance believe they can shape and form public opinion by simply propagandizing daily to hide who the real Obama is.
That might work with a complacent enslaved people who have learned to be dependent on government for the tiny bits of morsels handed for their well being.
BUT in American we the CITIZENS are still keepers of liberty and freedom.
We are not easily fooled or manipulated. As a matter of fact we most definitely don't like being manipulated and asked to swallow complete horse crap every single night via the MSM.
My gut tells me A LOT of people are feed up with MSM bias and will purposely vote against Obama just to stick it the eye of the MSM.
Good read.
We don’t need 4 more years of the failed Karl Marx policies.
Regarding that last paragraph, much of the MSM has lost it’s way, and no longer gives us the news anymore, but gives us what they want us to hear.
No matter how this election turns out, I am going to e-mail all the alphabets and let them know that I can no longer trust them to bring me the real news, since they couldn’t be bothered to really look into 0bama as closely as they looked into Gov. Palin and everything in her background, and that I will no longer be watching ANY of them, ever, and that they deserve their impending irrelevancy.
After he puts together his national police force that’s stonger then our military we can all meet at Concord Green, Bull Run, Appomattox, Vicksburg see you there.
The person who found and posted the audio on youtube goes by the moniker of NakedEmperorNews. They’ve done outstanding work and deserve tons of credit for all they’ve done in the previous months. If you’re lurking on FR, thank you so much!
I think it was ABC nightly news that showed McCain talking about this, then part of Obama’s tape. Of course they edited it so that it didn’t look as if Obama was talking about redistribution of wealth at all and McCain was lying.
They were playing damage control, so that when this is brought up the people who only get their news from tv will think it’s a distortion of what was said.
I was briefly compelled to stand near a TV with CNN on this afternoon. They did a "story" on it. But they quoted only a harmless, irrelevant fragment of what 0bama said on the 2001 tape, and made it appear as if that snippet was what all the fuss is about! It was outright manipulative deception by CNN.
Yes we can, yes we can, yes we can......
Exactly what CNN did too. Shockingly blatant manipulation.
>It was outright manipulative deception by CNN.
Hmmm, maybe we could do a class-action lawsuit... truth in advertising violations, perhaps? (They claim to be news.)
Did you happen to hear him just eviserate the New School Professor? Sadly, she was not even aware that he was mocking her.
And yet in 24 months they won't lift a finger to do even the crudest, most rudimentary background check on Obomie the Commie.
These clueless media people are pathetic examples of human waste. Their organizations need to be brought down.
