after watching the piece, I now officially have mental whiplash.
BO will be in lots of doo-doo if enough (sane) people video this compilation.

Nuance bro’, it’s all about the nuance, and if you disagree, you’re a racist…

H/T Wizbang by way of Hot Air. And by the way, should you be put off by all the nuance, then understand that you’re in effect getting in touch with your racist side. Just ask New York Governor David Paterson:Can…

The Obama Iraq Documentary…

Mr. Hope-Changeyness himself shows us just how unlike a regular politician he is. See, these aren’t flip-flops. This is just pandering you can believe in! Like, duh! Of course, the……

I just had an odd thought. If bho looses to McCain, will hillary be able to run against him in 2012? Maybe we should be working to see that she sabotages his iran/iraq positions.

If this video was 30 seconds long, then it would matter. The type of people we need to persuade are not the type trolling McCain’s website for videos. We need it 30 seconds long so we can run it as a commercial on “According to Jim”

Our pal Ellis was on FNC earlier explaining how the lopsided coverage is OK because Obama is fresh and new and interesting and McCain is a boring old man that no one cares about, and besides, some of the coverage has been negative – like the recent cartoon controversy. Heather Nauert did manage to call him on that one, but he just pretended that he didn’t hear. Typical.

Unfortunately, most of the voting public has about a 30-second attention span. McCain’s people need to make these a lot shorter and tighter.

Slightly OT, I saw a CNN report today talking about Obama’s upcoming European/Iraq trip, and the network plans to cover it (fawn over it) so extensively. CNN mentioned that Obama has been getting two to three times the amount of coverage from the MSM that McCain has been getting. No analysis of how biased in Obama’s favor the lopsided coverage has been; no analysis of how so much lopsided and biased coverage in Obama’s favor by every MSM outlet is likely to influence the electorate; just “Republicans are concerned” about it, but hey Obama’s new and fresh and “historic” (i.e. black) — so what do you expect?

At the rate things are going, by the time fall gets here, most voters won’t even be aware that there’s anybody but Obama in the race.

After watching the complete video, it’s the swing voters that should see this time and again. It’s amazing that Obama can even remember which side of the bed to get out of each day. Forgetting the “hope”, the man’s got “change” down to an art form.

Got bored and started to read my Email. Do it in one 60 second ad and one 30 second ad. Include opposing text bullets like samnoncazr suggests. End with one white on black text: “Liar”

I watched the whole thing because it amused the hell out of me.

I would like to see a text version – the quotes side by side – but then I’m kind of a text-friendly person.

Man, he’s better than Slick Willy. His constant use of hedge words “my perception”, “as I see it”, “it appears” gives him so much wiggle room it’s disgusting.

Wow, string em together and it’s amazing. This way, that way, back to this way….
I saw the timer and thought it would be too long but it goes by faster than a “Girls Gone Wild” comercial.
Not that I actually timed them….:P

George W. Bush should invite Sen. John McCain to go to Iraq the exact same time frame that Obama is there. That would upset a few liberal orgasms.

Too long and slow. Needs tightening and perhaps superimposing the written statements with the contradictory audio/visual statements. The tag line: Obama has been wrong all along on EVERY issue.

Way too long.

That said, I do hope “No, no, no, that’s not what I said” becomes the epitaph for Osama Obama’s campaign.

I would hate to think we’ll hear him saying that from the White House while Americans die in new terrorist attacks.
