"The only thing shocking about this is that they apparently think it’s wrong to suggest that we should help returning veterans, children leaving foster care and other members of Mitt Romney’s 47 percent get training that will allow them to find the best available jobs," said Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt in an e-mail to The Hill."

So, according to the Obama campaign, there is "nothing shocking" about calling a shout out to an anti-Semitic pastor, and peddling divisive, racist conspiracy theories about Bush and New Orleans that are easily disproved . Interesting...

DESPERATE RESPONSE TO THE TRUTH!

This election is shaping up as a virtual Referendum on the Truth. Are you for it or against it?

The Obama campaign:

Showing an entire film of me being an anti-American race baiter is an attack!

This is a real video of the real obama. What’s desperate about that? The lying video saying Romney caused the death of a woman — now that’s desperate.

This video is a diversion that the Obama team loves. Hannity/Carlson couldn’t have picked a worse time to release this.

There are too many issues to beat him on, right now.

If they could ever get a hold of video of Obama together with Ayres (”just a guy in my neighborhood”) and Dohrn that would be a potential bombshell for independent voters.

I might agree with you except for the fact that the obama people released a video of Romney’s garbage collector trying to portray Romney as a racist. Turn about is fair play. And if Romney is asked about this he should cite the release of the garbage collector video.

Funny how Obama’s own words are a ‘desperate attack.’

Reverend Wright… ”Them Jews ain’t going to let him talk to me,” Wright said. “I told my baby daughter that he’ll talk to me in five years when he’s a lame duck, or in eight years when he’s out of office. ... They will not let him to talk to somebody who calls a spade what it is. ... I said from the beginning: He’s a politician; I’m a pastor. He’s got to do what politicians do.”

And apparently peeved off Pastor's who have been shunned by their former brethren do what they have to do... Pay back is a ____!

That’s why instead of having laughed at and ridiculed Obama’s experience as a community organizer in 2008, McCain and the GOP had a duty to expose what community organizing was really all about.

Obama is nothing more than a clean, articulate version of Al Sharpton, and the media has promoted a false image of him as a healer and uniter.

To the question: “which is the real Obama?” The race baiter or the erudite POTUS? My guess is neither. I believe this is an empty shell of a man who can and will be whatever the occasion calls for. That’s why he’s such a remarkable orator.

Excellent statement. I am particularly angry with Peggy Noonan, for her attack on Mitt Romney, when he spoke up about the attack in Libya. Peggy called Mitt's remarks thin and tinny. Now, she is the one who sounds thin and tinny, by covering for Obama's failure, she made the failure her own.

I've seen a few people make that argument- I don't know. I think the intention was more to rattle the most paranoid POTUS in history the night before the first debate.

It’s only representative of what racist, divisive, pandering, community organizers do.

It’s reflected directly in his stint as president. Community organizers don’t do any real work, they just talk, firing up others to do the heavy lifting in support of their agenda. This has been evident in most of his speeches, and his reluctantance to do any real “work” since he was selected.

The only thing Obama hasn’t done in this rabble rouser genre, is adopt the bogus title of “reverend”, as most organizer, race-batters do (I.e. Jessie, al, Farrakhan, et al).

Enough firewater, some free crack, and pass-around greenbacks complete the war dance and elevate the hatred into attack mode.

Most of the old-line media cover their eyes and ears to this kind of expose’, pretending it doesn’t exist.

But, it does exist, and even though it’s nothing new to most of us, it’s been spotlighted, and that distresses the Obama left.

But the two-headed snake is an expert in switching from a Harvard elite, to a jive turkey - depending on his audience.

But we really don’t even need to know that about him, all that is needed is to look at what he’s done to America. For that, he should be tried for treason, but I’ll settle for just voting him out of power.

Prepare for Jim Lehrer’s question to Romney tonight:

“Mr. Romney, will you condemn the release of the racist video that conservatives at Fox News played on the air last night?”

That’s Hussein’s standard reply to everything-that someone is “changing the subject”. The only thing anyone’s supposed to talk about is how great he is.
