Based on the transcript posted by the Chicago Sun Times, here are the 5 quotes from then Senator Obama’s 2007 speech at Hampton University that are most likely to raise eyebrows:
It appears that President Obama went off script when he delivered the speech, but if he went on to deliver these remarks as written, I imagine they will cause some controversy.
soft skills, if these training programs work so good, how come the people that need them keep multiplying, what the hell are public schools for?
It’s all just refried socialist hash.
All 0bamunists I know agree with every word, including the false Jesus.
More than anything this video shows a most disingenuous Obama. Watching this then. White Obama intellectual tomorrow really reveals him. Undecideds will be turned off
Since we're talking about the activities in 2007 like this Hampton speech, did Wright also introduce him to a man named Donald Young? The media is sneaking up on the bigger story if they go just a little farther and connect just two more dots. Was Larry right?
Juan Williams on Hannity is expressing just the exact reaction I expect that the other 97% will cheer! No problem with Zero pandering in using the Black accent and cadence! Yeah for Zero!
RE: I met Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., who took me on another journey and introduced me to a man named Jesus Christ. It was the best education I ever had.
Why should the above quote be controversial? Isn’t introducing people to Jesus Christ what Pastors do?
I like to read a quote that says — “I sat on the pews every Sunday listening to Rev. Wright preach, including his stirring sermon after 9/11.”
Now THAT would be controversial.
SO far Obama has been the ultimate example of a teflon president. So why do you or anyone else thinks this video will do anything to persuade those befuddled 47% that support this clown change their mind?
The media and Obama will just come out and say, “this already was looked at and no one cares.”
They can post a video of Obama beating and raping a white woman and that would most likely turn off 2% of his base if any at all.
Other than #1, I fail to see how the rest of what he said will surprise anyone. we already know he’s a big government guy.
This is much ado about nothing IMHO.

Nah....people have that little something that tells you”he ain’t right”.....it’s not much of what he says as much as how he said it. Big red flag. Everyone knows a bs. Obama just lost credibility. Dats what I’m talkin bout. Pshhhh!
You also have Obama saying, in essence, that poor people are lazy and rude:
[The poor] may need help with basic skills how to show up to work on time, wear the right clothes, and act appropriately in an office.”
All pacs have to do is show how he talks to whites and how he talks to blacks always tries to be funny and very simple with blacks. He makes jokes and studders for some reason but with whites he is from Haawvard. Don’t you know!
Are you kidding? What about the claim that Hurrican Andrew and 9/11 victims got better treatment than Katrina victims because more Katrina victims were black?
Apart from the call for expensive new government programs, I don’t see anything deemed controversial. Wright was a pastor. If he introduced Christ to Obama, even if their understanding of Christ might be different from mine, I cannot call it controversial.
I do not think there is much in the way of controversy here at all.
Do blacks not see that he looks down on them and think they are stupid. How can they support someone that treats them like second class citizens with their hands out with now pride. Disgusting.
no pride
We need a good commercial that shows this video and his shuddering at Nc. Then contrast how he speaks to the white base. I swear I saw him in a checker shirt and Michelle in gingham going to WI. Wow. Who are they?
There is nothing in those lines that will get obama-supporters upset. Independents probably won’t find them that unusual either.
This is no story with teeth there.
In sum, those who’d have problems with his words in this instance are already not supporting him.
Agree.
The 0bama at Hampton sounds different from 0bama in The Hamptons.
Teflon(R)? He’s been almost consistently below 50% in the polls. Nothing Teflon(R) bout that.
Yeah; we could work with that quote. The “undecideds” we are trying to reach; might not like to be reminded why their tax money has go to show someone how to get to work on time.
When they are getting up at 5:00 to go to work to pay taxes to pay for that.
Most undecided voters have never seen the G-d AmeriKKKa video
clips and have forgotten who Wright is. That’s why they’re undecided.
“Of course what he introduced Obama too is different than 90% of everything else that in and of itself makes it controversial.”
We’re running a freaking Mormon who believes that some guy found gold plates, which probably weighed something like 600 pounds if they existed, with the Book of Mormon on it written in Reformed Egyptian which he translated out of his hat.
I don’t think the “different Jesus” angle is going to work out here.
That is excellent. Seriously.
I don't like Wright or Obama. But, to make such quotes controversial is a bit of stretch.
Lets hear the quotes that rush picks out for the show tomorrow.
The NRO is a pretty wimpy rag - I wouldn’t be surprised if they cherry picked to find the least offending quotes Obama said.
Big yawn. Saw most of this in 2008.
I must be missing something, because if my take on libs is close to accurate, those quotes should do more to add to his support, not take support away.
Nice of Fox to rerun campaign material for obama like that. I bet they donate a lot of cash to his campaign, too. No wonder. It's easier to be a "journalist" when your stories are already written for you.
That ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Money for nothin' and your chicks for free
Now that ain't workin',
He makes me want to vomit. The SOB born in Kenya, grew up in Hawaii and Indonesia, but has a black southern accent when he speaks to blacks. The pandering fake, fraud POS.
That would be brilliant because many urban blacks would see it as a dis - which it is!
This is not going to sit well with the “moderates” who voted for a “post racial” President in 2008. This video shows he is not “The One” they were promised.
Juan Williams on Hannity is expressing just the exact reaction I expect that the other 97% will cheer! No problem with Zero pandering in using the Black accent and cadence! Yeah for Zero!
Agree there are those who enjoy the “shuck and jive” , but also think there
Are one who will see the side that distorts things then, and is still doing it
Now.
Newt called him out on his outright lie on New Orleans not getting their share.
This exposes the great uniter as just another race baiting huckster like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. We all knew this in 2008. The middle, including about 15% of normally GOP voters, did not.
This video is not going to sit well with the independents who voted for a post racial President in 2008. This video shows he is not The One they were promised.
It just sounds funny coming from a Muslim , thats all
Because getting “free shit” trumps all else
That's one topic I've rarely seen discussed: Jesse Jackson's (1984) candidacy vs. BO's candidacy.
From Wikipedia:
Jackson was the second African-American (after Shirley Chisholm) to mount a nationwide campaign for the presidency, and he was the first African-American candidate to be a serious contender. He got 3.5 million votes during the primaries, third behind Hart and Mondale. He won the primaries in Virginia, South Carolina, and Louisiana, and split Mississippi, where there were two separate contests for Democratic delegates. Through the primaries, Jackson helped confirm the black electorate's importance to the Democratic Party in the South at the time. During the campaign, however, Jackson made an off-the-cuff reference to Jews as "Hymies" and New York City as "Hymietown," for which he later apologized. Nonetheless, the remark was widely publicized, and derailed his campaign for the nomination.[4] Jackson ended up winning 21% of the national primary vote but received only 8% of the delegates to the national convention, and he initially charged that his campaign was hurt by the same party rules that allowed Mondale to win. He also poured scorn on Mondale, saying that Hubert Humphrey was the "last significant politician out of the St. Paul-Minneapolis" area.[5]
And will the GOP use ANY of the hundreds of quotes that would sink ANY other candidate? NO THEY WONT
The average American is an undereducated idiot. VEY few even know what;s really going on . They thing NBC CBS etc are real news..%50 of the population is TOTALLY brainwashed .we’re in trouble. Beating Obama is only step one. We have to re educate an entire nation
If Jeramiah Wright introduced Barack Hussein to Christ at such a late age what did he believe up until then and did it involve the use of a prayer rug. Unfortunately the majority of blacks in America will slap him on the back and approve of his use of ebonics in this speech. Much like the way they patted Bill Clinton on the back and celebrated him when he was Gettin Some.
Wright introduced him to the “Social Justice” Jesus that “requires the COMMUNITY TO BE SAVED BEFORE I CAN BE SAVED,” said Barack Hussein Obama. He has said so explicitly on numerous occasions. I don’t know about you, but that ain’t the Jesus I met in the Bible. He is the one I have an INDIVIDUAL relationship with. He said, “No one comes to the father...” not “none of ya’ll”. Time and again I can quaote you til the cows come home, there is NOTHING Jesus said about a “corporate relationship” or response to such a fantasy. This is the same old apostasy Paul and Peter repeatedly warned against saying, “anyone preaching another gospel...” These sort come not from the Father but from the other guy, the one who stalks the earth looking for whom he can devour, the “Father of Lies”. Puts Zero in company with his own kind, I would say. Liars.
I’d like to know where Obama was before he met Wright. Wright was becoming a marxist at that time, with ties to Castro’s Cuba and soon, to Libya and Qaddaffi (never explored by the media).
Wright is the professional religious con-man like Michael Lerner, Jim Wallis, etc. In the 1800’s, he would have been a partner with P. T. Barnum.
“There’s a sucker born every minute”.
None of these quotes sound controversial, really, and could have been said by a (not too conservative) Republican.
It’s magnificent and a huge tell, the worthless media crips will go crazy with the ‘dats racccisst’ rap.
National politician is a panderer and a phony, complete story at 11.
