Critical audio gap in “complete” Romney tape released by Mother Jones (Update – Corn responds, 1-2 minutes missing)
Turns out tape cuts out part of controversial Romney answer
David Corn of Mother Jones released the “complete” audio and video of the secretly recorded Mitt Romney speech at a private fundraiser.
Yet the complete audio and video is not complete. There is a gap in the recording immediately after Romney’s now famous discussion of the 47% of voters who don’t pay taxes. The cut in the audio and video comes while Romney is in mid-sentence, so we actually do not have the full audio of what Romney said on the subject.
The next audio/video (Part 2) picks up with Romney talking about China.
I noticed this this afternoon and sent two tweets to Corn seeking an explanation.

I also sent Corn a Facebook message. I have yet to receive a response. I don’t have and can’t find Corn’s email address, or I would have done that also.
This audio/video from The Blaze shows the gap (via Moe Lane):

It does not matter as Oromney gets his orders from the same masters who control Obummer.
4 more years of hope & change via the republowcrats is NOT going help americans or fix our problems.
We need to follow the constitution and REMOVE this gubbermint of commies & muzzie dhimmnitudes and retunr our REPUBLIC to its former glory.
But since MONEY rules the world there is little chance that will happen…….
unless the entitlement crowds suddenly get the gubbermint tit yanked outta their mouths and they have to fend for themselves……
If that happens the riots that would take place all over america would make those rabid-inbred-pedophile-muslims look like a girl scout troop giving away cookies at an old folks home with hugs & kisses for all!

The left tried to destroy Breitbart over Shirely Sherrod videos – in a fairly successful effort to refocus attention away from her racism and that of the NAACP audience she was addressing.
But nothing is going to come of editing the non- authorized recording of a Presidential candidate less than 60 days out from the election. Because the MSM narrative has been reaffirmed and the new cycle is on Romney the rich out of touch guy and not Obama the dangerous incompetent.

Breitbart receives a portion of a video showing Shirley Sherrod relating the racist thoughts she had when interviewing a white farmer. He works tirelessly to get the full video, showing that Sherrod has since changed and becomes the first to make that full video available.
Mother Jones shows a clip that they themselves edited out-of-context, then releases a redacted version falsely claiming it’s the full video.
Yet, in Liberal New America, Breibart is seen as the devil and Mother Jones as the pillar of journalism.

The MSM 0bama stooges have quite a bit invested in this ploy to deflect attention away from the abject failure of the SCOAMF presidency and back to their eeeeevil rich Romney meme. I hope this POS plot blows up in their faces.

People are STILL reading Mother Jones? It’s 2012 for God’s sake.
It’s like when they pull David Crosby or Art Garfunkel over and these 70 year old geezers are STILL smoking weed. Pathetic that they never grew out of this stuff.

The communists aka democrats are trying really really hard to turn small things into big election issues. This proves they already know what we know…Barry is on the way out of the White House.
Now they are trying to blame Romney for things and he isn’t even in office yet…

“It’s all Romneys’ fault.” (It’s been 4 years and the progtards have already forgotten how to spell Bush.)

@Irony Curtain — OMGosh! My thoughts exactly! The stoner crowd in my jr. hi thought mother jones was lit-ra-chur. You know the ones, macrame’ belts, bags, hats and shoes, redolent of patouli to mask bad hygiene and the smell of pot. On the weekend the girls all lived down at the food co-op, debating the fine points of sprouted versus unsprouted wheat bread.

@ Irony and Abigail: Thanks!! Perfect! Exactly our
thoughts. Sadly our sisters still are locked in that set of delusions although they may have backed off the patchouli and bead curtains. Mine (Mr. typing) just advised Mrs. the other day that the high point of her life is getting her new issue of Mother Jones and sitting down with it for hours of enlightenment. True or a bait – it’s a perfect indication of a lost mind and no maturity.

@Menderman — The first thing that hit me was that the demmorhoids dug up Rose Mary Woods to be the secretary of their audio/video department.

@Stranded — haha! I’d thunk the same thing. It seems the biggest gap is the one between the ears of whichever “demmorhoid” thought this was a great idea.
