I wondered why Hillary would take all of this abuse and scorn and not bow out.

I hope this is true but why would Hillary hold it back? She can’t be waiting for Obama to be nominated.

Bob Novak is reporting that it is the Hillary camp that is shopping this video around. If the pubs release the tape, it will unify the black voters against the pubs (no real change). If Hillary releases it, the black voters will stay home for the most part (ending decisively any possible chance for a dem to win the presidency).

Great throry but I’m sure media has been all over every recording and would release anything they had.

It’s that and the lingering Larry Sinclair rumors popping about.

So the Republicans found this bombshell and gave it to Hillary? I don’t buy that. Bill and Hill are masters at digging dirt. James Carville probably drug a 100 dollar bill though Trinity Church to see what turned up and bingo.

Hillary has to get it out there but it can’t look like it came from her if she wants the black vote in Nov.

Her speech in North Carolina on May 2 was bad enough. She ranted for over an hour about how tough her life is. I don’t doubt she’s capable of such a tirade as described in the article.

Video of her NC speech is available on http://www.c-span.org, but I can’t link directly to it. Search for “Michelle Obama”.

Here’s the blurb:
Michelle Obama at Durham, N.C. Town Hall Meeting
On Friday, May 2, Michelle Obama, wife of Pres. Candidate Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL), holds a Town Hall Meeting at the Durham Armory in Durham, North Carolina.
5/2/2008: DURHAM, NC: 1 hr. 11 min.

I guffawed when I saw the line which stated, “Republicans has a lousy record when it comes to managing the economy....”

Since when? The economy was doing fine until the democrats re-took Congress. Then it went south.

A bit off topic, from RedState tonight.

Washington Post Lies, Video Doesn’t
Demand a Retraction
By absentee

All day today the MSM and left blogs have been on the warpath about Hamas. The Golden Child feels he was slighted by the hated Bush and the enemy McCain, and the media acolytes will have none of it.

Jamie Rubin took point on their attack. In an article for the Washington Post titled “Hypocrisy on Hamas” and cutely subtitled “McCain Was for Talking Before He Was Against It,” Rubin contended that Senator McCain has flip-flopped his position. News outlets and bloggers have been playing his edited clip from an old interview with similar degrees of delight.

As Soren Dayton noted earlier the story is a lot of hogwash, which the editors of the Washington Post let squeak right onto the page, either with no oversight, or worse, with oversight. Obviously Senator McCain’s position remains now as it was then, no unconditional meetings with Hamas.

Well now the full video is available and Rubin’s creative editing exposed. Watch the whole thing, you know, now that you can.

The editors have failed in their job. They’ve allowed this deliberate, lying hack job onto the page and demeaned the paper. Write to them now, and demand a retraction. Public, and with lots of mea culpa goodness.

FRED HIATT | hiattf@washpost.com

Patrick Hynes invited Hiatt on his radio show tomorrow. The secretary hung up on him. Nice.

Considering the reach this lie had, the backlash ought to reach as far. The Post Ombudsman should explain how something so completely, transparently opposite from the truth made it through their process. Maybe you ought to suggest that to her:

Deborah Howell | ombudsman@washpost.com

While you’re at it, you might point out they are still promoting the article all over the site.

“I now have it from two three sources close to senior Republicans that they have video dynamite–Michelle Obama railing against “whitey” at Jeremiah Wright’s church.”

If Republicans have this video it will NEVER see the light of day. They don’t have the grapes.

"she wants to be running should another bombshell like the Rev. Wright scandal hit the Obama campaign."

Hahahaha!!!

Hillary was behind the Wright media release (While Sean Hannity did break the story initially, it was Hillary who was behind the NBC broadcasts of Wright). The Wright videos were wildly popular in the ratings from there.

Hillary was also behind the Obama-Muslim photo release.

Hillary has more stuff on Obama. I am waiting for the Michelle Obama audio cassette where she shouts "White Devils," the Hussein Obama video of him kissing the Sinclair dude or perhaps a videotape of Obama kneeling at a rug inside his old Mosque.

Who knows what else she has on Obama.

Talk and hope are both cheap. Until it hits the Internet that's all this is, talk and hope.

..and noboday seems to be talking about this!: On February 20, Firas Ahmad comments on "Our Obama Problem" at altmuslim.com.

"But for many reasons, Muslims are one constituency Obama does not want to court. With a wink and a nod, Obama's Muslim supporters continue to work for a candidate who cannot afford to wink back at them. Given his perceived "closeness" to Islam, and the fact that he shares a name with a former Iraqi dictator, it could be strategic suicide for the Obama campaign to vocally acknowledge organized Muslim support. At a time when endorsements are worn like badges of honor, no major candidate is looking for the Muslim vote."

Falsehoods told to prevent the denigration of Islam, to protect oneself, or to promote the cause of Islam are sanctioned in the Qur’an and Sunna, including lying under oath in testimony before a court, and deceiving by making distorted statements to the media such as the claim that Islam is a "religion of peace." A Muslim is even permitted to deny or denounce his faith if, in so doing, he protects or furthers the interests of Islam, so long as he remains faithful to Islam in his heart.

Like many Islamic practices, taqiyya was formed within the context of the culture of Arab tribalism, expansionary warfare, Bedouin raiding and inter-tribal conflict. Taqiyya has been used by Muslims since the 7th century to confuse, confound and divide "the enemy."

I truly hope this is kept under wraps until after Obama has officially secured the nomination. The last think I want in this world is for Hillary to be redeemed. If this happens, she will win decisively.
