The new, improved version seems pretty much the same as the first version, except processed to look like it was done by a brave undercover right wing agent. Actually, it was from a Boston TV station and was also shown on PBS during the last campaign. That won't stop right wingers, after a lot of frantic googling, from demonizing Professor Bell and doing their best to make it appear as though Obama and he were best friends and used to have a regular bridge game with Bill Ayers and Saul Alinsky.

Not a lot to see, I agree. Looks like they are going for the 'palling around with radicals' angle to show his roots and ties.

This is supposed to be the first of many, we'll have to wait and see what else they have.

So it seems like Breitbart's video was pretty much just the same as the "heavily edited" one and this whole thing turned out to be a damp squib?

Yeah, probably.

I just watched the clip that Breitbart is running as an "EXCLUSIVE!!" at the moment, and it's 10 seconds of Obama saying "Open your hearts and minds to Professor Bell" followed by someone who was screening it saying "we hid this during the 2008 campaign" to a few chuckles of laughter.

In other words, it looks like a typical Breitbart hit piece.

What I found more humorous was the ad before the video, which happened to be for Clearasil face wash. Talk about missing your target audience...

OMG did anyone see the Breitbart dude (not the actual Breitbart obv) on CNN this morning?

"WE ARE GOING TO VET THIS PRESIDENT BECAUSE THE MEDIA REFUSED TO DO SO IN TOO THOUSAND AND ATE!!! RAWR!"

He then goes on to misquote Critical Race Theory and then pouts like a child when the host points out how wrong he is about it.

I am stunned that these morons have any audience at all.

Andrew Breitbart: Making fools of RWNs from beyond the grave.

It's sad really. I hear that the whack-jobs over in Breitbart land are screaming for Obama's impeachment. Apparently if you play the video backwards, while drunk on Jesus juice, Obama commits treason, bribery, high crimes and misdemeanors.

In Breitbart land being a democrat itself is a high crime and being black is at least a misdemeanor.

What's funny is this video first aired on PBS Frontline in 2008 and has been available on Youtube since then.
