the little Marxist and his thugs are sweating bullets..thank goodness this stuff is finally surfacing..
In a radio interview in 2001, Barack Obama said the civil rights movement failed when it became so dependent on the Supreme Court that it never got around to working toward redistributing income.

Barack Obama's campaign is firing back against criticism over a seven-year-old radio interview in which Obama discussed wealth redistribution, specifically blaming FOX News for drawing attention to the issue.
In the interview, conducted by Chicago Public Radio in 2001 while Obama was an Illinois state senator and a law professor at the University of Chicago, Obama discusses the failure of the Supreme Court to rule on redistributing wealth in its civil rights decisions. The unearthed conversations gave fresh ammunition to critics who say the Democratic presidential candidate has a socialist agenda.
But Obama spokesman Bill Burton on Monday accused FOX News of pushing a "fake news controversy" to further an agenda. Though FOX News played the audio tape for its viewers and did not just recap Republican criticism, Burton suggested FOX News was conspiring with the McCain campaign and the Drudge Report, which posted the material on its Web site.
"This is a fake news controversy drummed up by the all too common alliance of FOX News, the Drudge Report and John McCain, who apparently decided to close out his campaign with the same false, desperate attacks that have failed for months," Burton said in a written statement Monday. "In this seven-year-old interview, Senator Obama did not say that the courts should get into the business of redistributing wealth at all."
In a heated interview later on FOX News, Burton accused the channel of giving McCain advertising "for free every single day," and trying to "continually trump up these fake controversies and have folks on to talk about things that don't have anything to do with the issues that are important to the American people."

Boy, if you're not part of the Obamanation state run media! How dare someone play a tape of Obama speaking. Typical libs, blame everyone else except the one at fault. FOX did not make up Obama saying these things, HE said them himself. Its amazing how this shitbag liberal can never, EVER, take responsibility for his own fucking actions.

Thanks for proving my point. Fox didn't make up anything. Its an audio clip of Obama speaking. If Obama doesn't like it, I guess he never should had spoken so openly about his real feelings on wealth redistribution.

What is 'a fake news controversy?' Perhaps a controversy that arises because the audio came out? No one is denying what was said. These folks outslick Bill Clinton, he of the 'no lose' fame.

This is seriously quite astounding. Somehow playing Senator Obama's own words is create a fake controversy? The American people deserve to know his viewpoints.

Your skinny faggot communist is going to lose and be banished by his party for blowing over 650 million dollars........ it will be sweet. It will be great for my country to defeat a Communist-Marxist once again and put a real man in the Oval Office.
