LA Times Videotape Likely the Downfall of Obama

The Grapevine reported on the Obama-Khalidi tape last night and it appears that the release of the tape would be the downfall of Obama, as it would show he is good friends with a Jew-hating PLO spokesman and revolutionary terrorist, Bill Ayers. At the dinner:

A special tribute came from Khalidi's friend and frequent dinner companion, the young state Senator Barack Obama...... Obama reminisced about meals prepared by Khalidi's wife... and conversations that had challenged his thinking.

...a young Palestinian read a poem accusing the Israeli government of terrorism. Another speaker likened Israeli settlers on the West Bank to Usama bin Laden.

The LA Times will guard this tape with their lives because releasing it would expose a glimpse of the real Barack Obama. Supposedly the tape makes it clear that Ayers is not just "some guy in my neighborhood" and that Obama is much more closely aligned to the Palestinian viewpoint than he is towards Israel. None of this should be surprising, but it is probably very damaging when seen on tape.

So we can't see his birth records, which were sealed this week. We can't see his college work. We can't see this tape. We can't talk about Rev. Wright, which he attended for 20 years. We can't talk about his race. Can't talk about his wife. Can't talk about his position on infanticide. Can't call him Marxist. Can't call him socialist. Can't question his inexperience. Can't talk about his half brother George Hussein in Kenya. Is there anything we are allowed to know?
