I hope your right, I'd love to see folks who doctor these videos go through the severe personal expense of defending themselves.

Wow. This is fast becoming big news....

"The audio in both versions isn't clearly audible; it's possible that the subtitles are incorrect, but that the audio hasn't been deliberately altered.
UPDATE: I spoke to the editor of the video who said that he enhanced, but didn't alter, the audio in the second portion of the video."

I would say that it is already "old news"... nobody cares about some idiots doctoring videos. Hope they get in trouble for their prank.

Just posting information which I think is important and then people can come up with their own conclusion. I think this is a big "cover job" and I am stating my opinion regardless what CNN, MSNBC, Politico, and so on have to say about this story.

Here is what several people had to say that heard the video. HMMMM.... lets see... It was the Director, who happens to be friends with Bill, who said the video was doctored, therefore, I should believe whatever he says to be the truth. Yah, right!


I have the DVD, have seen this clip numerous times - There's no way it was doctored. He foolishly said what he said, knowing that he was being filmed.

Ben, if you were intellectually honest the two videos have the same exact audio. The background whispered comment about "white n*" is obviously in both videos. The only editing is that it's louder in the subtitled clip. I find it hilarious that context suddenly matters, where was the obsession with context over Reverend Wright?

Ben, I listened to the original audio on the link you provided. Turn your speakers up if you can't hear it. It's clear as day what he says. I can't believe, really, that you'd call that audio "inconclusive." Maybe you had your speakers on a really low volume or something. Now the director is probably trying to spare the Clinton campaign the trouble, I dunno, but it's pretty evident what Kantor said.

News: Did longtime Clinton friend call Indianans white ******s? (http://essence.typepad.com/news/2008/05/did-longtime-cl.html - broken link)
I am sure the video was pulled to avoid a lawsuit. This kind of stuff can lead to big $$$ with the right lawyer. I am surprised people are so naive when they post lies.

AND you know for certain it's a lie. There has been NO PROOF this has been a lie except for the Director of the video who is connected to the Clintons, who has said it was doctored. No, I am not naive, just smart enough to know if there is a Clinton name connection attached to a story, the lid gets put on these stories so tight that the public has no chance to make their own judgement. Just like the lid they put on the video tape of Hillary saying "screw um Bill referring to the blue collar workers. I suppose that was doctored too. PLEASE!
