YOU STOLE MY PRIVATE COMMENTS, BUT I AM THE ONE I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR.
...and, I still know something that all you bitter rural, religious, gun-toting folks don't know.

And from the standpoint of Obama campaign figures, the material was gotten under false pretenses. One top Obama hand speaks of the campaign and candidate being blindsided. Fowler was a supporter, a contributor, an activist, a blogger, not a reporter. With the event closed to the press, Obama spoke with less care than he would have otherwise had he known a reporter, of any sort, was in attendance.

The context in which these remarks were made is very telling - he thought there would be no yahoos around to overhear
Yes. He thought he was with like minds and could speak the truth as he sees it. Getting caught was never in the plan.
Unguarded moments provide an uncensored view into any candidate’s soul.
I don’t think Obama or any of the originals who heard and signed off on this understood the stink that this would cause.
They agree with Obama and...
they believe that, every “thinking” person will agree with them.
He seems to have a lot in common with Ray Nagin...
LOL!
And Wargle to you, too!
yes.....and anyone who does not agree with them is a non thinking person.
“We recognized it was a politically volatile story and thought it would create news,” says Marc Cooper, editorial coordinator of Huffington Post’s “Off The Bus” project for “citizen journalists” such as Fowler. “We had no idea that the controversy would reach this magnitude.”
IOW, it sounded ok to us, it confirmed our prejudices.
“Team McCain team swiftly blasted the magic words out through not only its own campaign apparatus but every media organ of the Republican Party.”
Oh, please. The ‘net did that long before.
Well we are dealing here with a EMPTY SUIT whose ONLY qualifications is that he's over 35. Everything else is GLIBish, ELITist, I AM the ONE crap:-()
Exactly. It’s not that Obama was caught off guard. They were ALL caught off guard, including Ariana Huffington and the woman who took the video and wrote the story, because they are all liberal elitists and therefore saw nothing wrong with what Obama said.
They all signed off on it even though they are Obama lovers. In fact, you might say that they signed off on it BECAUSE they are Obama lovers.
Ironic. Several of the people who responded to the article understood it very well. For instance:

It’s too good to be true — Ariana Huffington hoist by her own petard on the Geffen yacht spending carbon miles like the enviro doesn’t exist, crying obama obama and okaying the banana skin which slipped him up….
I read the woman was offended by the remarks and decided to post them. Too bad for Obama, I guess she has first amendment rights too.
Good one geo, I will help spread it around:-()
You got it.
Ha ha. There were dozens of camcorders and other recording devices trained on him. What a dope. Is this the type of street smarts he'll make use of when he talks to Ahmadinejad?
You’re exactly right, he was in his comfort zone with elite “homeys” and spoke his true mind. That’s more reason why Rush’s operation chaos must succeed and continue - gradually (hopefully), more and more truth will emerge about BHO before it’s too late. Time can be our friend - there’ll be more and more unguarded, unscripted moments where this leopard will show its spots.
yes, I love how it cuts both ways. And lately, so many times that applies to the left loons. What a change!
“Unguarded moments provide an uncensored view into any candidate’s soul.”
PING for wisdom on Obama.
