Romney Tape Gap Not Recording Error

Not Yet Europe

I think that I can prove that the Romney tape “1-2 minute gap” was not the result of a technical failure, but instead was done in post-production.  It is possible that was a technical error but we’re getting deep in Rosemary Woods territory there.

Here is a screenshot of the Mother Jones page, where I have stopped the two videos at the end of the first and beginning of the second.  This brackets the time that Corn’s begrudging “update” suggests that the perpetrator had to fix the recording device.  Clearly we see that enough time has elapsed for several items on the table — items that had not moved in half an hour — have now moved, and for a waiter to have moved into the field of view.  So, yes, and least a few minutes have passed.

 

Everything moves during gape EXCEPT camera

But do you see the problem?  Looking into the distance at the room itself: the ceiling and support column, the chairs, etc, the placement of the camera has not changed in this time.  Mother Jones would have you believe that 1) the recording device suffered an unknown failure; 2) this was discovered and fixed; and 3) the device was either never budged in this process or it was placed down exactly in the same place afterwards.

I call bullshit.  I have had electronic devices fail, sure, but it has never been so obvious that I could fix it without at least picking it up and looking to see why.  Further, Corns isn’t an idiot, so this was obvious to him, too.  He’s clearly lying and knew that the tape had been edited in a critical place right from the beginning.

Which makes this a fraud and that gap most certainly contains context that spoils the narrative.

  • Anything and everything they find on Romney pales in comparison to the absurd things Obama has and is doing to this Nation.

    • They both are the same, funded by the same banks… Get real.

  • Unless the illegal recording device was being started and stopped using an infrared remote control.

  • Right-Left paradigm? Please. Two-Headed Hydra connected to the same beast. The Int’l Banker Beast…
