Brietbart vetting Obama

Might as well get this thread started because there apparently are going to be a number of videos shown over the coming days.
While the first video wasn't much, I think they are going to get more and more interesting.
Video clip from CNN. Amazing the only one who gets it is Amy Holmes.

Frankly, it’s clear that no one at CNN does critical thinking, on race theory or anything else. The point of Andrew’s final project isn’t so much to make Obama’s early radical ties clear; it’s to point out how the media tried to keep them quiet. This uninformed attack from O’Brien and most of the CNN panel is a great demonstration of the very point that Andrew wanted to make with these videos. All they needed to say — and what Holmes tried to say at one point — is that plenty of people toy with radicalism in college, but drop those passions when they get into the real world, and that college activism isn’t terribly germane twenty years later with a term as President already in place. They fell into the trap set by Andrew and Joel, and somewhere Andrew is enjoying a mighty laugh over it.

Obama paling around with a Jew hater
This can't be true he said this week that he has Israels back
Report: Obama Offered Israel Advanced Weaponry In Exchange For Delaying Iran Attack Until After Elections…
WASHINGTON — The US offered to give Israel advanced weaponry — including bunker-busting bombs and refueling planes — in exchange for Israel’s agreement not to attack Iranian nuclear sites, Israeli newspaper Maariv reported Thursday.
President Obama reportedly made the offer during Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to Washington this week.
Under the proposed deal, Israel would not attack Iran until 2013, after US elections in November this year. The newspaper cited unnamed Western diplomatic and intelligence sources.
Netanyahu said Monday that sanctions against Iran had not worked, adding that “none of us can afford to wait much longer” in taking action against Iran’s controversial nuclear program.
The most important thing for Obama is getting reelected, everything else is a distant second.

Yeah, Obama sure has taken a 180 in his treatment of Israel now that the election is on the horizon.

Jeez Soledad is a raging liberal condescending beeotch.
That's partly why I can't watch this type of show much - in theory and in my experience, you ask a question and you wait for an answer. It's common courtesy that is completely lost on these talking heads. I don't mind a good argument as long as both sides get equal time - she's monopolizing her panel as well as her "guest". That's a CNN mantra.

Solidad got absolutely owned, showed her ignorance, and fell into the Brietbart trap completely.
I liked the part where the person on her panel asked Pollak if he was afraid of blacks. Pollak is Jewish, married a black gal and they have a biracial child. What a douche.

Can I get a show of hands of who watches PBS on a regular basis? Anyone? Bueller?
This video (which is the first time I've seen it) only shows that he was at Harvard and embraced a professor. The larger context shows me that O'Brien (and by proxy CNN) won't even allow the presenter of the video to completely offer an explanation for its meaning or how it might fit into a larger vetting.

Like I said in my original post, I didn't think the video itself was too damning and easily could have been countered, but CNN played right into Pollak's hands. Also think there is more to come that won't be so easy to dismiss.

What hand? He went to Harvard, embrased a professor? ooooooo
You guys actually might get somewhere with the American public if you stuck to the present/policy differences, instead of rehashing the insane birther/commie crap.
Everytime you do that, you add votes for Obama.

The present eh. Well I guess everything that was done in the past should be forgotten about, but for some reason I don't think the Conks will get that treatment. As for votes, those who were going to vote for Obama were always going to vote for Obama.
This won't add to Obama, it will only take away, as the media is portrayed as not having done their jobs and suckered the American people - that was Brietbart's point. You may know a lot about Obama, but I would be willing to bet a good amount of people don't, and some of this stuff won't sit well.

You might want to wait to see what other videos are coming out before you make yourself look as stupid as Soledad O'Brien just did.
BTW: Pollak's wife is smokin' HOT!!!!

No one, other than irrational Obama haters, cares who he hugged in College. And yes, Conks got many passes - look at Bush/Rumsfeld/Hussein connections.
It won't take away a single vote from Obama - those that believe this drivel would never vote for Obama, under any circumstances.
Media does it's job, mostly. It reports the news. Not crack-pipe conspiracy plots. That is not news. It is delusional fantasies of the irrational.

Breitbart has never done anything that a sane person believed. Not worried at all. Only fools that believe his rubbish are going to be disapointed.

Well, 51% of America has already proven they don't care about the fact he's a foreign-born drug-using muslim terrorist communist with ties to the Chicago mob...as long as he keeps upping the amount of food stamps being distributed, he'll get THEIR vote...

Straw man much? Just because you didn't like Brietbart exposing corruption in the Donk ranks, doesn't mean his work was/is without merit.

As usual, you are completely missing the point. Breitbart's argument all along has been that the MSM never properly vetted Obama. The video that you refer to being shown in 2008 on PBS was brief, clipped, AND no audio, only a voiceover. A candidate's associations are important, and as much as you would like to play down Bell as just another Harvard professor, there are real issues with the man. Videos like this were intentionally obscured by the major media outlets, because they were carrying a lot of water for Obama. Nobody should be OK with this. Let's face it, Obama has not exactly turned out to be the President everyone wanted him to be. I think he still would have beaten McCain even if the media had fully explored his past, but at least people would have had more of an informed decision to make.
I personally think that people evolve. Obama was in college at the time, and almost certainly had some radical views, which would not put him out of step with 99.9% of all college students. I think he is more measured and mature now, and probably does not subscribe to a lot of what he did back then. BUT.. as was stated in the clip with Pollack- none of this is the media's place to decide, it is for the people, and the media failed in its first and sacred purpose to investigate and report.
