Huffpost title link: "Clinton advisor exonerated". Does someone have ORIGINAL video?
Looks like Sam Stein really IS scared of this little racist pipsqueak. Anyway, does someone have the ORIGINAL video? They can claim that all of the different versions on youtube came from the same doctored source. It would be great if someone actually had the original video for sure and checked it.

12. that doesn't sound
bad as far as I can tell..I had never seen the movie and must say while I thought the white n--g thing was sick.....I also thought it was stupid and who would do that on camera.....I don't think he said it...grumble... I do have to remember to double check info from the net before I jump...boy I can't wait till this primary is over.

Ya know what I think the most of the problem is...while I like Obama way over Hillary...I think we have two very good canidates..and its not there negatives that are keeping things going..its that we are split between very capable candidates.


I also think once we can put some real effort into going against McSame he is going to loose some big poll #s

6. It's from a movie. A million people or more have watched it since 1993.
There's http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108515/">one version, as far as I can tell.

--p!

7. It has changed to: Clinton Advisor claims Indiana Slur Video is a Conspiracy
If you click on the link, the headline changes. Sam Stein does not exonerate Mr. Kantor. Looks like he did say "those people are shit." I think it's a stretch to say that he was referring to the Bush White House.

"The cropped video, which spread through the Internet like wildfire on Friday morning, shows Kantor with fellow former Bill Clinton staffers James Carville and George Stephanopoulos discussing results from the general election. In the footage, Kantor approaches the two aides and says, "Look at Indiana -- wait, wait, look at Indiana. 42-40. It doesn't matter if we win, those people are shit." That much seems true, though Pennebaker says Kantor was referring to the George H.W. Bush White House."

13. Yeah, but the link on the front Huffpo page still says, "Clinton advisor exonerated"
When the only exoneration is Kantor's claim of innocence. That's like saying Dubya is exonerated from this illegal Iraq War since he claims that he's innocent.

9. Buy the movie
And stop calling the guy a racist -- you people are making me sick this morning.

I thought I'd about had it with the Obama supporters around here, but this... this is a new low.

You're all exactly like the BUsh supporters were - and that's fucking scary.

14. "Those people are shi**ing". He's talking about Bush 1 crew.
Followed immediately by "How would you like to be in the White House this morning?"

I don't see what all the fuss is about.

15. I'm sorry, did Hillary's kitchen sink hit her big toe
when she tried to throw it at Obama? You'll thank us for this later. After all, this raises an important question about electability, since we all know that the Republican attack machine will use it. I can't wait till Georgie boy asks Hillary about this since it's 'all over the internet'. :rofl:

25. Just making sure her baggage was completely rummaged through.
She'll thank everybody later. We're just helping her to realize what the Republicans are going to use in the fall. Hillary has taught us well. :rofl:

24. Original video? How about what the director of the movie said about the youtube version?
http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0508/Pennebaker_Clip_Doctoered.html

May 02, 2008 Pennebaker: Clip Doctored

I just spoke to D.A. Pennebaker, the director of "The War Room," who said his film had been doctored to produce a widely-viewed YouTube clip.

In a clip from his film on the 1992 Clinton campaign, posted to YouTube today, Clinton advisor Mickey Kantor is -- according to subtitles -- seen referring to Indiana residents with an expletive and to his colleague George Stephanopolous with a racial slur.

"He does not say that. He does not say that," said Pennebaker, after viewing the clip.

He said the initial expletive referred to the anticipated reaction in the Bush White House to the fact that Ross Perot's polling numbers were holding strong.

"What he says is he’s surprised Perot’s numbers are holding," said Pennebaker in a brief phone interview. "He says they must be shi**ing in the White House."

The second expletive, he said, appeared to have been entirely fabricated, with new audio dubbed onto the original movie.
