Tell me again which campaign attacked their opponent over a supposed high school incident over 40 years ago?

Speaking of tapes, I'd like to hear the Dickler tape from 1998 or better yet the 2003 2003 Rashid Khalidi tape held by the LA Times, which refuses to release it, being a news organization and all.

Saw a clip from the tape. Reason we can’t release it is because statements Obama said to rile audience up during toast. He congratulates Khalidi for his work saying “Israel has no God-given right to occupy Palestine” plus there’s been “genocide against the Palestinian people by Israelis.” It would be really controversial if it got out. Tha’s why they will not even let a transcript get out.

Haven't a clue if the quote is right, but it would have been right for the audience.

In fairness to Obama, he's never put a dog on top of his car, only in his stomach.

What is the big secret about the stuff from 1998? Obama’s interview from 2001 on NPR in Chicago about the court and redistribution made it no secret he has always been for redistribution.

Check it out....

They guy who posted it has a good summary on youtube.

1. The Supreme Court never considered “redistribution of wealth” or “economic justice” among the guarantees provided to citizens.

2. Even the Warren Court was not “radical” enough to do so — to impose real change on the nation.

3. The courts have generally provided negative constraints on the government rather than positive obligations the government owes to its citizens (specifically, here, such as economic justice and redistribution of wealth).

4. Therefore, it is a “tragedy” that the civil rights movement became so courts-focused, because it limited what redress they could actually obtain — and it took attention away from the “community organizing” efforts which could assemble “coalitions of power” (political power, that is) to actually achieve “redistributive change.” Such change simply could not be had in the courts, still laboring under the “constraints” imposed by the Founding Fathers.

5. “And in some ways we still suffer from that.”

When I first heard it back in 2008, I thought to myself, how did this guy ever get elected to the Senate, and go on to win the democratic nomination? He holds the constitution, the founding fathers, hell the entire concept of the United States in contempt...

If there is Justice in this world these lying rats will get flushed down the toilet come Nov 6th. Their smirking spinning to their media accomplices is too much to handle for another four years. Though I will if I have to
