[YEM]

Jump the gun much?

Kantor says the same thing. Not fake, Hillbot.

[cascadiance]

[2rth2pwr]

[Bluebear]

23. That's not fair.

It doesn't take until the end of the day.

---------

Please explain? :shrug: I don't think I get the joke.

--------

To the OP I don't know why you're laughing about it. Though I now believe that this video is not what it was put up to be, the reason we believed it is because it wouldn't have been AT ALL inconsistent with what she has said in the past about white southern voters, nor with the tone and attitude of her campaign.

That's what you should be crying about.

[Hoof Hearted]

34. Here's the play by play.

Heartburn up there said: All you are seeing is more LIARS like Hilly...

...circuling the wagons and hoping people are as stupid as you are.


I simply wanted to know if it was customary to consult with a Rabbi before having your wagon circuled.

[JoFerret]

40. How we doing now?

.

[gaspee]

4. People will believe anything

If it fits their agenda. Pretty classic mentality. If a bit sheep-like - but that's no surprise, now is it?

I'm LOL'ing right along with you!

[underpants]

5. Really

6. The are desperate at this moment.

:rofl: :rofl: :spray:

[newmajority]

15. Who's desperate?

It ain't the Obama campaign who dispatched 50 new trolls to this board to spin this lie.

[thereismore]

7. LOL right back at you and your beer-swilling "down-to-earth" candidate. nt

[WinkyDink]

8. Doctored or not doctored, they are intent on blaming Hillary. She is a Machiavellian-Rovian dirty-

trickster who somehow KNEW the Obama supporters would try to make hay over this video. SHE KNEW, you see, and is now somewhere rubbing her hands together in Peter Lorre-ish glee.

Whatever.

[Cali_Democrat]

9. One word....

fingergate

[rentonpunk]

10. Obama supporters make me so uncomfortable sometimes

25. Please read your TOS. It is against DU rules to call someone out for low post count.

Name-calling is also against DU rules.

[Autumn]

41. Welcome to DU

it isn't always this bad.:hi:

[newmajority]

11. If you let the whore media and Camp Hillary tell you that your own ears are wrong

Then you're the one with the problem. Not me.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

12. You're right. Looks like Kantor didn't say those things. As far as I know.

I'll take him at his word on it.

[ProSense]

14. It's great to watch spin unfold

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.

Update 2: So we've got conflicting accounts on whether the more incendiary of the statements was doctored. The director of the War Room says the (n-word) is doctored, and gives the reason for the "shit" comment.

"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."

Now, take a look at the explanation Kantor gave for the "shit" expletive.

"Indiana was not even on our radar screen," he said, "And I was talking about the polling and not the people... If you look at The War Room, this is not the way Carville or George interpreted my statement. This is frankly libelous."

Those two statements don't seem to match up.

Update 3: Fast and furious, Ben Smith at politico has updated his piece, saying he spoke to the editor of the YouTube video. NO ALTERATION, according to the editor.

UPDATE: I spoke to the editor of the video who said that he enhanced, but didn't alter, the audio in the second portion of the video.

Update 4: The first clip is "no longer available."

16. Gotta feel just a little, itty bitty, teenie tiny bit sorry for a few of them. They wanted this BAD

Very badly, which, as it turns out, is how it was done. Very badly.

[gaspee]

31. And yet...

New threads with this bullshit are being posted here at DU and people are still insisting the guy said that crap.

If I were Kantor, I'd sue every single site that posted this crap - because no matter what, his reputation is damaged for life.

It's complete and utter bullshit and now I despise the Obama campaign and Obama supporters even more than I did before.

It's reaching a level of hate with me - though no nearly the hate the Clinton haters have.

I'm scared it's getting close.

I fell of the no DU wagon. It's clearly time for me to get back on it.

[The Night Owl]

17. SHORTEST FIRESTORM EVER!

:nuke:

[Hoof Hearted]

22. LOL. 0 to 60 and straight into a brick wall.

:rofl:

[bunnies]

18. LOL at the Hillary supporters who are to dense to realize

that he clearly says those people are shit even in the original movie.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

20. You know what I'm laughing at?

The Clinton supporters who thought it was real too, and defended it as being from the nineties.

[MonkeyFunk]

21. As soon as I saw the first reports

I was chatting with my bf and said "it's a lie". Didn't even look at the video.

If the Obama fans here are pushing an even slightly implausible story, odds are damn good it's a lie.

[MattBaggins]

27. Yeah sure you were

You are just so brilliant.. really you are.

[MonkeyFunk]

35. I was right.

If the Obama contingent here is pushing something, the smart money bets on "lie".

[wowimthere]

33. Seems Jake Tapper couldn't be shut up. It was true that kantor talked about Indianians.

[emilyg]

26. They were quivering with job. Such clowns.

[Orsino]

29. I suspect that the joy you are feeling...

...is not unlike the joy you perceived in your political opponents.

And it's not something to be proud of.

[wowimthere]

32. Well your post is obsolete... It appears that Kantor did say Indianians are shit. No one is pushing

the N word. But Kandor did take heat from the press for saying what you can hear on the real War Room tape. That Idnidanians are shit.

[Beausoir]

36. It was an astonishingly ridiculous display. Their behavior hurts good Democrats everywhere.

[dchill]

38. Who will have the last laugh?

Jake Tapper at ABC News thinks its real - Kantor said Indianans are shit. True 15 years ago is true today.

Read it and weep:
