A lot of Lefties here, screaming: “Why doesn’t Fox play the WHOLE tape?” Last night on Hannity, the show you folks despise yet not pay attention to what was actually said, Tucker Carlson told Sean that he has the entire 40-minute speech available for viewing at his website.
Fox could lose ALL of its ratings if it showed 40-minutes of Obama speaking in 2007. IT just could put everyone to sleep, yet still outraged by what they aleady saw.
Well once again I must put all my piercings in, dye my hair purple, put on the black lipstick and nail polish so I can get ready to watch and worship OReilly. Then the debate!
BBL (unless I decide to run out and cast a vote for Obama or………..throw myself off of a bridge, It’s about the same)

Lefties
It doesn’t get any better than this. Mr. Hope and Change an Al Sharpton type race baiter. Anthony he told those people the Federal Government didn’t do as much to help them because they are black. He used a lie that he knew to be a lie to spark dislike and disdain among the mostly black audience. Call it what you will but it is ugly.
@sasha I prefer the George W. Bushy version.
There’s an old saying in Tennessee – I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee – that says, fool me once, shame on – shame on you. Fool me – you can’t get fooled again.
Anthony Parello (AP076) wrote: “…The point was made that since the Romney campaign nor anybody in attendance (all but one apparently Romney supporters) disputes the content of the video or refutes it based on the missing two minutes or is able to fill in the blanks or tried to, the two minutes were inconsequential.”
Do you really expect any attendee to remember a speech given several months ago, let alone 2 specific minutes of it, and be able to comment about those 2 minutes with any credibility?
“You DO realize that Korn is a paid employee of NBC right? So a conversation between two NBC guys about missing tape may not be the best final source.”
Says the guy that copies and pastes from newsbusters….
No Apple but how about the candidate or his speech writers. Do you think these things are written and disposed of.
The fact is there is no smoking gun about that video even tthe Romney campaign agrees on that.
I think it’s funny that people think 2 minutes missing after the the whole 5 minutes or so of him talking about 47% will make it null and void. Or that the 2 minutes missing will totally make the 47% conversation turn 180 degrees. Only way that could happen is if Romney said “SIKE!!!”
UH OH. Oreilly is replaying the tape….the tape that was played 5 years ago already by all the “SO CALLED FAIR AN BALANCED LIBERAL MEDIA!!!”
I always suspected President Obama felt this way. You can’t sit in the right Rev. Wright’s church for twenty-years unless you agreed with him.

Seems I seen the 47% vidio played every hour on MSNBC explain the difference
Don’t worry guys, Karl Rove is here to tell you the TRUTH about Obama!!!
“The philosophy of nonviolence only makes sense if the powerful can be made to recognize themselves in the powerless. It only makes sense if the powerless can be made to recognize themselves in the powerful. You know, the principle of empathy gives broader meaning, by the way, to Dr. King’s philosophy of nonviolence.
I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but rich people are all for nonviolence. Why wouldn’t they be? They’ve got what they want. They want to make sure people don’t take their stuff. But the principle of empathy recognizes that there are more subtle forms of violence to which we are answerable. The spirit of empathy condemns not only the use of firehoses and attack dogs to keep people down but also accountants and tax loopholes to keep people down.
I’m not saying that what Enron executives did to their employees is the moral equivalent of what Bull Connor did to black folks, but I’ll tell you what, the employees at Enron feel violated. When a company town sees its plant closing because some distant executives made some decision despite the wage concessions, despite the tax breaks, and they see their entire economy collapsing, they feel violence.”
Obama 2002 MLK Day
Problem you decide?
This is the next one up.

The corrupt so-called objective liberal media played the edited version of the tape and they released the prepared remarks transcript of the speech by then Senator Obama. If they played this in 2007 on the Nightly News for two weeks Obama would have been ruined.
The corrupt so-called objective liberal media covered for him.
Hannity should be ashamed of his ” Al Capone’s Vaults ” tactics to get viewers. That video was old, irrelevant and lame. It just shows how desperate the righties are , they started digging 2007 all over again.
But I guess Hannity,the hooker of Fox News will do anything to get viewers but nothing to present the truth.
The reason FOX News didn’t want to air all 40 minutes is because their Kool-Aid drinking viewers would’ve seen Pres. Obama speak about Jesus Christ way too much and that would’ve went against their propaganda machine in making their viewers believe he was a Muslim.

The Prez. in his own words.

You are saying that every word he said at the speech was scripted. Can you confirm that?
@
Apple, Anthony
Obama himself says he is going off script!
“If they played this in 2007 on the Nightly News for two weeks Obama would have been ruined.”
