Obama – Jeremiah Wright Videos Disappearing from You Tube
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72B3tUAqpo4[/youtube]
Senator Barack Obama and his pastor, the reverend Jeremiah Wright of the Trinity Unity Church of Christ in Chicago.
Do Wright’s statements, which Obama regularly brought his family to witness for over two decades, reflect Obama’s opinion of America and caucasians? Do his wife’s statements shed more light on Barack’s true beliefs?
Ace first alerted Flap to the disappearing Barack Obama – Jeremiah Wright videos and Flap painstakingly had to replace most of the videos here.
National Review has more on the flap.
But, after Flap replaced his videos, he found this You Tube montage over at Hugh Hewitt’s blog.
So, if some of the other post’s videos disappear again then there is this one. Enjoy.

Do-Over Democrat Primary Elections in Michigan and Florida? Part Four
There will be NO redo Florida Democrat primary election according to Florida state Democrat officials.
Florida Democrats won’t go forward with a plan to redo the presidential primary with a mostly mail-in vote, the state party chairwoman said Monday in a letter citing lack of support for the idea.
A solution to the problem is now in the hands of the Democratic National Committee, which stripped the state of its delegates because Florida held an early primary, Chairwoman Karen Thurman said.
“The consensus is clear: Florida doesn’t want to vote again. So we won’t,” Thurman wrote. “A party-run primary or caucus has been ruled out, and it’s simply not possible for the state to hold another election, even if the Party were to pay for it.”
Who benefits with this scenario. Hillary barely (in elected delegates won) since she won the original Florida primary although neither candidate campaigned in Florida. The DNC likely will count only half the delegate votes for Florida effectively disenfranchising many Florida democrat voters.
However, the real winner here is Barack Obama who has been losing momentum to Hillary and would have to spend $ millions to campaign in a state where Hillary is popular and won the first time.
What about a re-do Michigan Democrat primary?
A re-do is possible but Barack Obama supporters in the Michigan Legislature are dragging their feet on enabling the re-vote.
State lawmakers looking at a Democratic presidential primary redo in Michigan appear to be locked in a standoff heading into a crucial week: Legislative leaders say the U.S. Sen. Barack Obama camp needs to agree to the repeat election before legislation is written, and Obama supporters say they must see the bill before signing off on the plan.
Whether Michigan has a do-over primary in June depends on resolving that issue.
State Sen. Tupac Hunter, D-Detroit, said Sunday that allies of U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton are bent on a do-over primary to enable their candidate to try to pull up to Obama in the presidential race. Hunter said he won’t sign off on a repeat election unless he sees detailed legislation answering his concerns.
“Clinton folks will do anything to open Michigan back up,” said Hunter, who is co-chairman of the Obama campaign in Michigan.
“She is in a hunt for delegates. Why this sudden pull out all the stops to give Hillary Clinton every opportunity to try to catch up? Guess what? It’s not going to happen. This legislator is not going to facilitate it.”
And, remember that any re-vote would involve GOP voters who could and WOULD game the Democrat primary. Rush and Laura Ingraham did it in Texas and undoubtedly would do it again.
Obama can not afford to piss off the voters in Michigan but it is to his decided advantage to not have a new primary election in Michigan on June 3.
Flap is positive that Hillary will ratchet up the pressure on Michigan Democrats to facilitate a re-vote.

Barack Obama to Deliver Major Race Speech Tomorrow
Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Barack Obama D-Ill., speaks to the media at the Community College of Beaver County, Monday, March 17, 2008, in Monaca, Pa.
Barack Obama battered by the revelations of his Pastor Jeremiah Wright and falling in the polls, tomorrow will give a major speech regarding race in his Presidential campaign.
Barack Obama will give a major speech on “the larger issue of race in this campaign,” he told reporters in Monaca, PA just now.
He was pressed there, as he has been at recent appearances, on statements by his former pastor, Jeremiah Wright.
“I am going to be talking about not just Reverend Wright, but the larger issue of race in this campaign,” he said.
He added that he would “talk about how some of these issues are perceived from within the black church issue for example,” he said.
He also briefly defended Wright from the image that has come through in a handful of repeatedly televised clips from recent Wright sermons.
“The caricature that’s being painted of him is not accurate,” he said.
This better be a more effective speech than Mitt Romney gave when he addressed his Mormon faith.
Flap thinks the only way Obama redeems himself with America’s white population is if he outright distances himself from Jeremiah Wright, condemns his “hate speech” and promises to quit Wright’s church if any further incendiary rhetoric is delivered.
Then, there is the question of his judgment and credibility. But, for now, he needs to put out THIS FIRE.
Barack Obama and Rev. Jeremiah Wright

Barack Obama Watch: 42% Say Obama Should Quit Church
[youtube]http://youtube.com/watch?v=jc2FCJ7zWEQ[/youtube]
This Pastor is the INSPIRATION for the Title “Audacity of Hope” which is Obama’s Book. Pastor Jeremiah Wright has been Democratic Presidential candidate Barack Obama’s mentor and spiritual leader for 20 years.
The Jeremiah Wright story is not fading from the public. The latest Rasmussen polling states that 42 per cent of voters agree that Obama should quit his church.
Overall, voters are evenly divided as to whether Obama should resign his membership in the Church—42% say that he should while 40% disagree. White voters, by a 46% to 33% margin, say that Obama should leave the Church. African-American voters, by a 68% to 16% margin, say he should not. Wright retired last month as Pastor of the Church.
The story became big news in the past several days and has had at least a temporary impact on public perceptions of Obama. Last Thursday, 52% of voters nationwide had a favorable opinion of Obama. That figure has fallen to 47% on Monday (see recent daily results). In recent days, Obama has also lost ground to John McCain in the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll.
Then, there are the commentaries and parodies in RIGHT talk radio. Listen to Rush Limbaugh from this morning.
Barack Obama MUST pursue a different strategy regarding “UNCLE” Jeremiah Wright in distancing himself from the radioactive racist, anti-American Wright comments. As Flap said over the weekend: Obama will need to not only throw his Pastor “under the bus” but run him over – repeatedly.
If NOT then the Fallout will be NUCLEAR.

Barack Obama Sliding in the Polls Due to Jeremiah Wright Flap?
Gallup Daily Presidential Tracking Poll
Ed Morrissey over at Hot Air points out that Barack Obama is now slipping behind John McCain in the general election polls.
Flap wonders if it is due to the scrutiny that Obama is receiving over the Jeremiah Wright flap.
This poll seems to support this thesis.
The latest Pennsylvania polls will bear close watching. But, it is the Democrat Party and their Super Delegates who will decide the primary contest and believe Flap THEY will be watching all of the polls.

Did Barack Obama Attend July 22, 2007 Wright Sermon?
[youtube]http://youtube.com/watch?v=Pg0wpRrSX40[/youtube]
Newsmax.com reports that its correspondent witnessed Sen. Barack Obama attending one of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s anti-white sermons on July 22, 2007.
Newsmax reports yes Obama DID attend THIS service. Obama’s campaign says no.
Flap says it is a stretch (as the video above aptly illustrates) but that Kaus has it RIGHT again. It is just a matter of time when someone documents Obama at one of Wright’s tirades and challenges Obama’s credibility directly.
The Clinton Cabals strategy of painting Obama as the radical “BLACK”candidate (which started lately with Geraldine Ferraro) seems to gaining traction.
