October surprise - Obama supporters will pretend it doesn't exist of course - The Orange Mane

barryr · 10-02-2012, 07:32 PM

Or do their usual and change the subject and worry about Romney's dog or Palin's hair. Anyway, this video just came out and not only does Obama lie, but he's a race pimp, but some already knew that. Gushes over Reverend Wright, the guy he threw under the bus by pretending he didn't know his "God Damn America" mentality. Obama the liar. The liberals do not want this guy vetted and would rather now know what he's all about. They'd rather worry about inane crap about his opposition.

Exclusive: In heated ’07 speech, Obama lavishes praise on Wright, says feds ‘don’t care’ about New Orleans [VIDEO]

"The racially charged and at times angry speech undermines Obama’s carefully-crafted image as a leader eager to build bridges between ethnic groups. For nearly 40 minutes, using an accent he almost never adopts in public, Obama describes a racist, zero-sum society, in which the white majority profits by exploiting black America. The mostly black audience shouts in agreement. The effect is closer to an Al Sharpton rally than a conventional campaign event."

Obama begins his address with “a special shout out” to Jeremiah Wright, the Chicago pastor who nearly derailed Obama’s campaign months later when his sermons attacking Israel and America and accusing the U.S. government of “inventing the HIV virus as a means of genocide against people of color” became public. To the audience at Hampton, Obama describes Wright as, “my pastor, the guy who puts up with me, counsels me, listens to my wife complain about me. He’s a friend and a great leader. Not just in Chicago, but all across the country.”

By the time Obama appeared at Hampton, Jeremiah Wright had become a political problem. Wright told The New York Times earlier that year that he would no longer be speaking on the campaign’s behalf because his rhetoric was considered too militant. And yet later in the Hampton speech Obama explicitly defends Wright from unnamed critics, a group he describes as “they”: “They had stories about Trinity United Church of Christ, because we talked about black people in church: ‘Oh, that might be a separatist church,’” Obama said mockingly.

That’s not, Obama says, what is happening in majority-black New Orleans. “What’s happening down in New Orleans? Where’s your dollar? Where’s your Stafford Act money?” Obama shouts, angry now. “Makes no sense! Tells me that somehow, the people down in New Orleans they don’t care about as much!”

It’s a remarkable moment, and not just for its resemblance to Kayne West’s famous claim that “George Bush doesn’t care about black people,” but also because of its basic dishonesty. By January of 2007, six months before Obama’s Hampton speech, the federal government had sent at least $110 billion to areas damaged by Katrina. Compare this to the mere $20 billion that the Bush administration pledged to New York City after Sept. 11.

Moreover, the federal government did at times waive the Stafford Act during its reconstruction efforts. On May 25, 2007, just weeks before the speech, the Bush administration sent an additional $6.9 billion to Katrina-affected areas with no strings attached.

In the prepared version distributed to reporters, Obama’s speech ends this way:

“America is going to survive. We won’t forget where we came from. We won’t forget what happened 19 months ago, 15 years ago, thousands of years ago.”

That’s not what he actually said. Before the audience at Hampton, Obama ends his speech this way:

“America will survive. Just like black folks will survive. We won’t forget where we came from. We won’t forget what happened 19 months ago, or 15 years ago, or 300 years ago.”

Three hundred years ago. It’s a reference the audience understood.

Interesting set of interviews with Ed Klein and Rev Wright.

link to story

Especially thought this exchange was interesting, about Pres Obama being owned by wall street.

Quote:

“We keep forgetting that Barack Obama was selected before he was elected. You didn’t select him. He’s accountable to the ones who selected him and who paid for him to be the president,” Wright said. “Why do you think Wall Street got a break? They selected him Why do you think the Big 3 got a buy-out? They selected him. Why do you think he stands up and says ‘I am a Zionist?’”

Don't care!

Jetmeck · 10-02-2012, 11:03 PM

What is it with this clueless Romney bunch anyway ?

Can't find any recent actual dirt ?

Obviously Obama's preacher has had no effect on his presidency.

This will last about as long as that 15 year old "redistibution" audio/video tape which was taken out of context just like the "you didn't build that" BS.

GET A CLUE and some new ideas. Time is about out and your reaching is becoming desperate.

On the other hand Romney keeps giving us new audio/video to go along with his greatest hits.

Like shooting fish in a barrel.

October surprise...

W*GS · 10-03-2012, 12:55 AM

This is just a stale old retread. Snore.

Drek · 10-03-2012, 04:33 AM

Old story from 4 years ago when he was already a national POTUS candidate, speech was covered by the media at the time.

Also, he spoke facts that are incredibly accurate.

Shows right wing dishonesty though. Two privately owned buildings in the middle of the richest city, the heart of one of the richest states = $20M, an entire city in an otherwise poor state = $110M. Somehow that means the entire city was obviously the recipient of great gov't. largess.

And this is ignoring just how much money the Bush admin funneled from relief to their corporate overlords.

Stopped reading after this sentence... not a credible or serious source. If you disagree, then you're not being intellectually honest.

October surprise? These are the same leftovers from four years ago reheated. No one (other than lunatics like barry) gave a crap then, no one gives a crap now.

This. But wouldn't it still be a good idea, though, if Obama came out and made a comprehensive, widely publicized speech addressing his views on Wright and race to a national audience? Wait, what, he did and it was the most discussed speech he gave in the 08 campaign? There were even white people in attendance, so it's not too scary?

gunns · 10-03-2012, 09:06 AM

The really sad and scary thing about this thread is that barry probably votes. But provides another example of the clueless merely voting for an R, any R.

Smiling Assassin27 · 10-03-2012, 09:10 AM

The fact that our president is racist, victim-oriented, incompetent, and militantly anti-capitalist is not exactly a surprise. People have chosen their sides already, so this will have little effect on votes, IMO.

It speaks more to the mainstrea media and its rabid need to protect Obama than it does Obama, at this point. Again, not a surprise.

What's also not a surprise is how clueless and duped you are. All of your points are stupid, but particularly the bolded. Seriously, dude? You can't be this stupid and unaware. Check out the stock market (doubled since Obama took office), corporate profits, etc.

Quote:

During the 2008 election, Obama received significantly more Wall Street money than McCain, for one very good reason: Wall Street trusted him and his egghead technocrat advisers to do whatever was necessary to prevent their world from imploding. And that’s exactly what they did. Geithner, Bernanke, Summers, and the rest of the Obama economic team threw everything they could at the markets: they were the liquidity provider of last resort, they took that role seriously, and they did exactly what was necessary to save the US — and, for that matter, the global — financial system. McCain, by contrast, never came across as being particularly competent on that front, treating the financial crisis more as an excuse for political stunts than as a serious existential threat.

After 2009, however, Wall Street felt that the crisis was over.

Yes, unemployment was still unacceptably high, growth was unacceptably low, and the real economy was still struggling. But never mind that: Wall Street profits were enormous, corporate profits were hitting record highs, and bonus season was just around the corner. America’s financiers no longer needed Washington to save them from ruin; now all they wanted was for Washington to get out of the way, and to let them prosecute their profit-making strategies as aggressively as they wanted. And they were in no mood for gentle reminders from Washington that if it wasn’t for the public sector they’d all have been wiped out.

There is some truth to what he says. The media in this country is no longer holding everybody accountable all the time. I see it. Anything you read or see anymore is subjective and packaged as news. It's not objective and it's mostly op/ed...again...packaged as news. How can you call youself "FOXNEWS" and be all op-ed. You have to go investigate it for yourself. The world has changed too...in the 80's if I wanted governemnt information I'd have to send letters and maybe I would get an answer. Now I can download the lateest CBO report for example in minutes and have almost full disclosure. Technology has made the media as lazy as anyone else. And why shouldn't they be lazy...technology is replacing them.

That's the hilarious thing. The so-called liberal media flogged the Rev. Wright thing to death back in 2008. No one other than right-wing lunatics like SmilingAss cared then, and no one cares now. The reason no one cares is because there is nothing Obama has done as President, nor anything in his personal background that suggests he agrees with Rev. Wright. Just guilt-by-association BS. But the media is in the tank for Obama because they aren't rehashing this **** that was already beaten to death 4 years ago? Right

I don't necessarily disagree with your post, just with the various delusional adjectives SmilingAss used to describe the President, and his contention that on this particular issue the media has not been reporting anything. That's BS, because the Rev. Wright deal was beaten to death 4 years ago. The OP doesn't offer any new revelations, so what is there to report? Just rehash stuff everyone already knows & doesn't care about?
