It's a real video. That's really him. Mishearing the words is what we're debating.

I'm not even pushing the crazy racial slur angle. That he might have said Indianans are "shit" is what I'm interested in.
You may be right that as a Hillary Clinton supporter passionate about this campaign that I put more wieght on the Advisor position than was "Official". I can't argue against that.

I am interested in finding out what was said as well and do not disclaim that Kantor is an Campaign Advisor that has more political pull than Wright had.

What is on my mind right now is how this is being brushed aside as a hoax. Is it? Did kantor say these things at all?

It nearly derailed me Eric. My heart sank and I had to look into it. It is indeed a hoax.

It already is not getting the same. Do you know how many "breaking news" stories there were about Wright? The media in Indiana have it but the mass media --- just by not playing it over the weekend while the early vote is still going on --- are giving it a HUGE pass.

Moreover by focusing do you think Stephanopolis is going to ask Hillary about this duriing her free television time on Sunday?

What part is a hoax?

This is called "who are you going to believe? Your lying ears? The parts that are PERFECTLY audible are enough. If Wright had called the state "shit" the entire country would have been upset.

You act as though "ni**er was the only problem here.

Had it been factual though, I would've expected no less than the MSM to loop it 24/7 showing her the same courtesy as they still show Obama.

I just want to know if this video is real. It looks like it to me.....but then I have never heard of Mickey Kantor.
Hillary set a standard----again and again and again!

MANY here have argued that they just don't believe that Wright ONLY said this sort of thing over and over again for 20 years. Have they not?

They INSIST that Obama MUST have heard it.

Do you think that Carville (foul mouthed as he is) and Mentor --- NEVER said these sorts of things at any other time?

I know that people do not "VET" their pastors. I think they likely "VET" their advisors.

To say the people of an entire state are "shit" is absurdly insulting to that state.

It is a hoax.

Which of the words in the next sentence are unclear anyway.

"How would you like to be " (seems audible enough to me. So are you claiming that "a worthless white ni**er" is the "HOAX"

Main Entry: 2hoax
Function: noun
Date: 1808
1 : an act intended to trick or dupe : imposture
2 : something accepted or established by fraud or fabrication



Unless you are SOLEY referring to the last 4 words--then you are trying to perpetuate a "HOAX" that hoax being that nothing denigrating to indiana was said here.

As though removing the entire context of Wrights comments was NOT a "hoax"??

Editing them INTENTIONALLY to exclude WHO he was quoteing when he said "American's chicken's are coming home to roost" was not a hoax?
