#1 What is lame about seeing O's true character?

Remember this great man said "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." Martin Luther King, Jr.

Evidently the O has not taken to heart the meaning of these words nor their intent to unify a nation.

#2 Alfred Nobel Peace Prize winners both. By the way, Alfred Nobel also invented dynamite.

Be nice to whites, they need you to rediscover their humanity.

#5 Bet they are on maximum turbo-twist trying to spin the racist comments and faux accent after last night. I just wish every Dem could see it--just don't know how when they have a lock on all the media the left views.

#6 Over at Belmont Club, the commenters on his mirroring post on this topic are speculating that the MSM will call for Romney to repudiate the video, on grounds that it is degrading the campaign.

Romney should refuse: This is to 0bama what the 47% tape is to Romney. BOTH were released by outlets independent of the campaigns. BOTH are videos of the candidates. BOTH are being offered as "the true character of the candidate". BOTH have gaps. The problem for 0bama's crew is that they have no idea how BAD 0bama is in the gap and so would fear another "joe the plumber" moment if they callled for release of the full video. In contrast, while Romney may not really remember what he said at that fundraiser, he knew he would NEVER have uttered a "joe the plumber"-class boner, and thus had no problems calling for the full video to be released. Mother Jones blinked, while the Daily Caller would LOVE to have the full tape.

I'm arguing that Romney should say "Your media had a video on me, and media supporting me has a video on your candidate. I support Free Speech, even speech that YOU don't agree with or YOU find embarassing to YOURSELVES."

The 0bama video is what the left fears the most: A SYMMETRIC RESPONSE. Tit for Tat. Punch back when hit. Like their fellow losers, the palestinians, they NEED a playing field tilted toward them and referees in their pocket to hold their own and have a chance of winning. Deny them those advantages, and they go down squalling "It's not fair!"

H*ll, when asked to repudiate it, he should point out the gap and call for the release of the full tape "to see everything before I make a judgment." Measured, Reasonable, Presidential.

Mitt's response will determine where my "playmoney" from the next paycheck goes.

#9 Angiting Snore1647 is a bot: he's repeated the same comment in another thread, and probably a few others I haven't looked at.
