In a video obtained exclusively by The Daily Caller, then-presidential candidate Barack Obama tells an audience of black ministers, including the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, that the U.S. government shortchanged Hurricane Katrina victims because of racism.

I haven’t watched FOX since bambis election, but I watched it tonight to see the Game Changer.
**Yawn**
Nothing I didn’t know and nothing the dredges who cast their votes for him don’t know.
Yeah...I’m done with listening to Hannity’s hype.
It’s not what Obama says in the video that will damage him, it’s how he’s saying it. He has carefully projected the image of being an intelligent (even intellectual) black man who is “post-racial” - i.e., not angry with whites. This video belies the contrived image...IMO.
I’m white. If I own a business and I want to bid on doing work for my city government I go to the back of the bus behind EVERYONE that looks like Obama. BY LAW!!!! That’s the freakin LAW!!
Who doesn’t know Obama and all democrats HATE me? Who doean’t know this? This tape means nothing to people that hate me openly and have their hatred enshrined in law already! Stupid Hannity! Stupid!
Some game change.
Obama could be howling for whitey to be beheaded, and not one of his black following would do anything but grabbing for their hatchets.
And no democrat would find anything wrong with it.
LOL!! I haven’t watched Fox News for a long time, and I decided to watch Hannity tonight to see his show on the video. I see nothing’s changed. Juan Williams is still using the race card. This time he directed that to both Sean and David Webb, his black Conservative guest. I guess Juan is one of those poor blacks Obama talked about, that needs the government to teach him how to wipe his ass because he’s not bright enough to do it himself. Williams admits that Obama changed his speech patterns, but that everyone does it, based on the make-up of the audience He clearly said that Obama was speaking the way he was because he was talking at a black college to an elite group of young black people. I couldn’t help laugh because I didn’t know it was normal practice to talk like a street thug with a southern accent when addressing a group of black college students. If a white person did that, they’d be labeled racist.
Ka-BOOOOMM!!
Obama a major lying racist jerk!!!!
The man owes Gush an apology big-time!!!
Algore? Hillary?
If a white Republican did that, they'd be labeled racist.
But a white Republican would be a racist, no matter what they did...
Gore and Hillary did it (and did it laughably badly), and NOBADY called them anything except "brilliant" and "masterful."
Everything white people do is labeled racist.
Two takeaways are my initial reaction:
1. Obama campaigned as a uniter, not a divider. This speech is full of seeds of dissension.
2. The DBM totally ignored this speech (and probably others like it which will come out in due course, I’ve no doubt) and what they did report was sanitized.
I think we’re seeing the start of Romney’s two pronged strategy. 1 )In Obama’s own words, show beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is a liar and imposter and 2) discredit the Obama shill media who never reported the truth about Obama even though it was in front of their very eyes.
Non-starter.
Obama....shonuff!
This video is a big fat zero. Most knew this about Obama and others don’t give a chit. It will probably help excite the Obama black base.
Nothing like having the very white Hannity and Tucker carrying on about it. They may as well have labeled this as an Obama PAC ad.
Post much!
I don't think this is a game changer, exactly, but I think it'll throw Precious off his game tomorrow.
