the whole god damn thing feels orchestrated
First it's Obama/Wright, then Hillary/Fararro, then Obama/Wright reprised, Limbaugh's Chaos campaign to keep it going, now this...seems like a smear campaign against the entire Democratic party.

1. what do you think Rove's been doing?
...and I'm sure he's laughing big time today. All the fighting between Obama and Clinton camps has provided COVER FOR THE WH.

I'm continually amazed at the stupidity of Democrats in this campaign.

16. Wait, so Obama said those words?
He must be more powerful than anyone thought, apparently he has shape-shifting skills.

7. The Wright thing was perfect timing
and we were played exactly as planned...now this, 30 second soundbytes can be looped. And before you know it, the damage is done. I dont know if this is real or not, just this timing....one week its Obama, the next Clinton, like clockwork

8. The media has been orchestrating since Clinton and Obama announced
that's why we ended up with these two.

Little late to be figuring it out.

13. Of course it's orchestrated. But Kantor still needs to go.
Edited on Fri May-02-08 11:56 AM by Kristi1696
I've listened to the original clip a dozen times, he clearly (and unfortunately) says "worthless white n*ggers". That can't be tolerated in this party.

Whether he was referring to all Hoosiers, or just the Indiana Republican Party, I can't tell. But nonetheless, he has to be cut loose.

ETA: We can sort out where this came from later. But right now, it's damaging to ALL Democrats.

17. Scandals, Made-To-Order
These are turning out to be extremely well-timed and tailored scandals, all of them.

Since I don't trust ranting partisans (not even myself), I think I'll wait until the real story is out. In all cases.

Besides, I am deaf in one ear and have nearly no hearing in the other. I did see the film years ago, when I was still able to hear movie dialog, but nothing like that sticks in my memory.

The going has gotten weird, and the weird have turned pro. I'm going to mark ALL the scandals on "doubt" now. And when the truth comes out, to hell with the perps, whoever they may be.

--p!

18. If you have captions on your TV you may catch it...
Edited on Fri May-02-08 12:09 PM by DearAbby
It shouldn't matter, as I have said before...this accusing people for what other people said is wrong...Obama should never have been blamed for what Wright said, just as Clinton today should not be blamed for what Kantor is accused of saying...We are falling for it.

20. Go rent the Video,
I will, I want to see this for myself...I bet that video will be watched this weekend. It's already out there...This nonsense has to stop, the circle firing squad, for the good of the party.

It has a sour taste in my mouth, being played like a fine violin, by ROVE. This sure does stink
