Freepers in full state of arousal over "Breitbart will release full video of Obama tonight"

The thread: "Breitbart will release full video of Obama tonight on Hannity at 9pm."

NOTE: I will not link to the Breitbart site...it's easy enough to find if you want it.

THE VETTING: Ben Smith Releases Selectively Edited Obama Race Video



Earlier today, Buzzfeed’s Ben Smith announced on Twitter that video researcher Andrew Kaczynski had released “the mysterious Harvard/Obama/race video that the Breitbart folks have been talking about.”

The video, which Kaczynski says was “licensed from a Boston television station,” shows a young Barack Obama leading a protest at Harvard Law School on behalf of Prof. Derrick Bell, a radical academic tied to Jeremiah Wright--about whom we will be releasing significant information in the coming hours.

However, the video has been selectively edited--either by the Boston television station or by Buzzfeed itself. Over the course of the day, Breitbart.com will be releasing additional footage that has been hidden by Obama's allies in the mainstream media and academia.

Breitbart.com Editor-in-Chief Joel Pollak and Editor-at-Large Ben Shapiro will appear on The Sean Hannity Show to discuss the tape. The full tape will be released tonight on Fox News' Hannity.

Students held vigils and protests in solidarity with Bell with the support of some faculty. One of these students was U.S. president Barack Obama, who led a protest at Harvard Law School on behalf of Bell.[5] Critics, including some faculty members, called Bell's methods counterproductive, and Harvard administration officials insisted they had already made enormous advances in hiring.[3] The story of his protest is detailed in his book Confronting Authority.

They think he is radical? He sounds quite distinguished, and more like a potential candidate for the Supreme Court, if he were still alive.

Yeah.. sure it will. I'm sure that Fox News and Hannity would never edit anything to make Obama look bad.
