@Ratboy
What part do you think Lahrer will play???
Lets see now, Lahrer works for PBS, he BLASTED other GOP guys for wanting to cut funding for PBS, and Romney is for cutting the funds
Nah, Jim will do a decent job, he knows the entire nation is watching, and he knows they will smell any over biased questions. People just want to see the guys respond and how they react under presure, and dude? It IS pressure for both of them.
So they edit it down to 10 minutes the first time and then the entire thing comes out and they re-edit it again to avoid the truth!!!! they are playing the American people for fools………………..and getting away with it!
NBC Dismisses Obama Video as Old News, Edits Out Jeremiah Wright Comments
In a stunning omission on Wednesday’s NBC Today, brief coverage of a 2007 video of Barack Obama completely ignored the then-Senator praising his controversial pastor Jeremiah Wright as a “great leader, not just in Chicago, but all across the country.” The NBC morning show adopted a dismissive attitude toward the video, with co-host Savannah Guthrie leading off the broadcast: “Conservatives circulate a five-year-old video, in a move the Obama campaign calls desperate.”
Get this Rats
AP, Reuters are coming out with every damning report’s on the Libya attack and now, Jay Carney and the administration have gone silent on all of it.
Reuters is reporting the WH had day’s warnings and ignored calls from the Embassy for better security.
The WH has Went into sleep mode, and even the AP and Reuters are getting fed up with the cover-up.
One guy from AP even went as far as saying, they are clamming up on this.

Did you expect anything different from NBC?

Have you noticed how effective it has been when they do go silent?? It works everytime because the pres corp quits pressing the issue. Back in the day as you well know, if the Prez went mute the press got louder. But this guy lives by “shut up long empugh and they will go away!” cuz it works!
I watched the Obama video. I believe the video was over hyped & I don’t think it will change the election . Obama pandered, lied , engaged in race baiting, was divisive, & took on a laughable accent , but, the goals he stated in his speech , he’s either enacted, or, is working to enact.
According to ‘The DC,’ 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

@Bishop
You think their will be a mormon question tonite??
Yes. After Harry Reid brought up the subject 2 weeks ago I think it lightly will be covered. I’m not against that totally as long as it’s done simply in an informative way.
It won’t be close to anything major though.
@d.d.
I don’t think it will change the election
It won’t, but I think the tape wasnews worthy enough to have been published, It’s out, people if they wish can view it and decide. And now its time to get back to the election and move on. Agreed d.d.
The last day for registration in Kentucky is Oct 6th to vote, check your States cutoff dates and make sure everyone knows if they are registered to vote.

Wow, Hannity smashed again – his time slot needs moved up – his geriatric cracker audience has nodded off by this time.
@BJM
étrange surnaturel
‘Parlez-vous francais’?
BJM, pls go away, we have enough lib wackos with their false generalizations on this site already.
dd and others, I don’t think the video was over hyped. Most of us on this site are aware that Obama is a racist and panders but most of the American people have been sold a bill of goods on this man. Any video that shows the true Obama needs to be hyped to its fullest extent possible to get those not paying attention to pay attention. This will be new to many people who have been fooled by the MSM that has characterized this guy as the great uniter. He is the exact opposite.
Also, the incompetence in the Benghazi murder is growing. Extra security was requested and the State department refused. Now maybe some folks will look at how unprepared Hillary was for this job. Almost as unprepared as Obama was for the presidency.
Coffee,I hope that was an insult to BJM–I don’t know latin!!!
Just joking suiko, I know it is not latin.
Some on this site have indicated that the video of Obama is just how things are done in a Black church. This wasn’t in a church and you can say Jesus a million times but the racism does not go away. I don’t think Jesus will take to kindly to Obama essentially ignoring the National Day of Prayer for the last three years either. Obama worships Obama.

Basiclly it was calling him weird LOL
Coffee, well said. I don’t like being called a cracker!!! I’d rather be a hamburger.

I’m going to wait till they are published but a series of new videos are now about to be published. TheBlaze has one already, and the others are in different settings.
I’m hearing there will be a stead stream of more videos that will be coming out. I’m sure another one on Romney will come soon as well.
I wonder DB?, when will BOTH sides realize that in this day and age, you can’t sneeze without it being caught on a camera?
