Olbermann: What If Obama Was Linked To A "Witch Hunter" Pastor? (VIDEO)

Last night on MSNBC, Keith Olbermann discussed a video of Sarah Palin being blessed by a Kenyan witch hunter, and wondered how a video of Barack Obama in a similar situation might be received. Watch:

Sure wouldn't see S.ean H.annity putting this up on his show like he ran Wright's in a continuous loop while ranting on and on about it. Hypocrites!!!

[sonshine]

Oh, Hannity--if there were a such thing as a Satan, SH would be it's spawn.

[MsCanadian]

This video has got to be more widely circulated and her beliefs questioned publically. She is very scary - what would she do to the country?

[sonshine]

She would futher muck it of course. :-)

[lvdragonlady]

Double standard for sure.

[YouDisgustMe]

more evidence that ms. mooseburger's a psycho

[sonshine]

"Katie, I don't understand....the media...about my foreign...cari...yeah, mock, that's it." Too funny. Too funny. And this lady wants to run the country and actual human people support this. This is crazy. I sense the people who support her are doing out of spite:

-she's a woman
-she's "regular"--I disagree and think based on her interviews she's below average
-she's not black
-she's very very pretty
-she's crazy but not medicated to our knowledge

That's ok. Do not despair. All over the nation she is encouraging many many people to register as democrats.

Haaa ha ha ha ha!!

I would like to see this on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE. Seriously. It might stimulate some Monday morning water cooler talk that would be overheard by those who would vote for the P/Mc Ticket.

[CammyV]

Tina Fey will be appearing again this week, I'm sure the SNL writers pencils are smokin' getting all the lunacy down.
Watch for a large delivery of pea soup to 30 Rockefeller Plaza by weeks' end.

[Whinger]

Well now, the triple K would have a field day, the poor guy would be hung, drawn and quartered!

It would be like the dark ages revisited, the dunking machine would be used to make him talk...

Oh sorry, that was McBush and McPalin I was thinking about!

[sonshine]

No, he's on their side. C'mon, be fair. Even they have standards just like honrable John McSillyface.

This makes me so angry, if this was Obama, it would be looped and relooped all day long and half the night. What a double standard! They constantly tracked the poll numbers and watched his numbers go down as they replayed Rev. Wright over and over. John McCain and Sarah Palin can say and do anything, and just get away with it. I truly do not understand!

[ricitizen]

I'm with you there 1PALady. I'm am with you there. It's just incredulous!

[sonshine]

Don't be angry. We'll all be at the polls and you can help to make sure the scary republicans who are not the most popular cannot steal the election. Take heart. They will retrain after President Obama is sworn in and then try to be the nice guys and the truth tellers next time around. You'll see.

[sheputstheLinPAIN]

She's the witch!

[ricitizen]

You know. I am tired. So much hypocrisy, double standard, lies, stupidity and cynicism. It's exhausting. It's unbelievable! Is there justice? Is there someone who can call this out and everyone listen to and say Enough!! I'm at a loss for words now. I feel so dishearten. Things have to get better. Can't they? Someone please tell me that this really all makes sense. Please.

[hotwire]

Yeah, I'm tired too. Tired of all this BS. Tired of this damn, almost 2 yr long presidental campaign. Tired of hearing and reading about it. Tired of all the whinning, bitchin and crying on both sides. Who the Hell cares anymore, no matter which one of these Bozo's are elected it will be business as usual in Washington, nothing will change. All those DC fat cats are the same, say what you want to hear in front of a camera, behind closed doors they slap each other on the back and laugh about how stupid we all are while they count the money they steal from us. McCain - Obama, Obama - McCain= typical Politician!

[swift goat pet for truth]

don't look.

[ricitizen]

Thanks for nothing. As I've seen from your post you bring nothing to the table. Just more cynicism. If you had some wit about you, that would be of value. If you had some facts or a good question or argument, that would be uplifting. But you don't. You just read about it and complain. Even when I've been down about things, I've tried explain to others who read this blog about how I see things. Or I answer a question, and even try to be funny. I offer links, to information, or facts. But then, sometimes I just have to comment to people like you - pure cynics. My frustration is in the uneven handedness of the coverage. Do you really think it's correct that Palin has gotten by with so many unanswered questions? Do you really think, Obama is held to a lower standard, compared to the other candidates? The standard for Obama has been higher his entire life. But time after time, he has exceeded the standard easily. And yet, people with less education, less intellect, less ability to communicate and less scrutiny are considered to be without question better? It's ridiculous. I want to laugh, but it's tragic for our country that we eat our best and brightest and send our most innocent to meaningless war. And we sit here and complain about it instead of saying let's support our future and not try to kill it.

[sonshine]

Don't be tired, we have work to do: saving our beloved nation from total decline. Pick up your knapsack and follow me to the polls.

:-)

[sonshine]

Yes. This is the old pendulum swing. Notice how low voter turn out has been in the past. This crazy s*it is a chance for Americans to show the universe that we appreciate our place here and how lucky we all have been. So the point is for us to go pick up some old lady or the homeless dude who is registered and take them to the polls. Then we have to call all the folks in our lives and tell them that there will be armageddon if they don't vote because Palin is looking forward to the end-times and we cannot all fit into Alaska, which, by the way will make us Russians as that country is right next door, oh separated by a maritime border.

See? It all makes sense.

[ricitizen]

Thanks Sonshine. A sense of humor helps to tolerate the fear. Nice going my friend. :-)

[Kaos911]

Where is the endless loop playback and humiliation by the MSM? Oh, my bad, that's for uppity Blacks only.

[Jabo22]

Let's face it, Palin's Pastor problem is really going to be Obama's problem
because he's a BLACK witch hunter from Kenya.

In the deep voice of the sarcastic political ad guy:

"Barack Obama is black, Pailn's pastor is a black witch hunter therefore,
Barack Obama is a witch hunter. "

I'm John McCain and I approve this message.

[gigi09]

Yes, but she is white and she is allowing a Witch Hunter to bless http://www.irregulartimes.com/witchproblems.htmlhtml

[Floridagirl1972]

Let's see Hannity run this tape over and over and over until election.

[CaptainStormfield]

Hannity wont but we certainly can. Its great that it made on to Olberman. Next stop.......

[hotwire]

Olbermann, now there's a beacon of light at the end of a long, dark tunnel!

[westcoastsc]

What do you mean? We already have witch hunters in office. The terrorists are the witches that they use for political gain.

[CaptainStormfield]

Great analogy.

[MissCupcake]

In addition to talking in tongues, healing the sick, and hunting witches these pastors are also known to cast out demons!
It comes from a verse in the bible that also speaks about SNAKE HANDLING! The believers of the "word" shall be able to take up serpents...
If you've ever seen the videos of backwoods pastors in KY and WV you get the full pitcure. Some of these people will also drink pioson...Yep! Google it, its nuts.

[Stretchluv]

You are right. It is nuts. But, all revealed religions are nuts. A man walked on water? Really?
