Well, this answers the question of if Obama is going to let Hillary run with him. Since the Clintons are responsible for bad stuff in Africa according to her (Michelle)

Well, which is it; a hoax or a real tape where she says “why’d he” ? Those are two separate concepts. And why would you think that the “why’d he” words are being misrepresented? It makes little sense the whoever has the tape would frame it as being so damning when, as soon as it is released it will be very clear whether your theory is correct. If there is an element of accuracy to the “whitey/why’d he” thing, I would imagine that it is because THAT is what BO and Aunt Ester will try to use to defend themselves...while all the time knowing that she was saying “whitey”. Not a bad strategy given how close the words sound.

The tape is probably copyrighted and Trinity’s lawyers are working 24/7 to keep it off of the air and youtube. My guess only...

That didn't stop the leaking of the Rev. Wright speeches on his DVDs.

I just search YouTube for Michelle Obama. It showed me this:

Michelle Obama whitey remark Michelle Obama's stunning comments at a closed-door event in Iowa....michelle barack obama whitey

But when I tried to watch it, this message came up:

I do not understand why Rev. Wright failed to become an issue earlier when Obama ran for Senate. It was no hidden secret.

It is not a tape but a DVD. Maybe there is some Clintonian parsing of words.

"Now I know it's fake. If that were true there would be multiple copies in the public domain by now. "

Not necessarily. Look at who would have been downloading or buying the CD. They are probably happy to sit on those copies.

I fail to see where aruanan was insulting. "Ignorance" is simply a lack of knowledge. Are you always so defensive at 6am?

Ha ha. I didn't even pick up on the possibility that anyone could think the word "ignorance" in the context of "ignorance of a particular thing" could be insulting. To say, "He walked into the building ignorant of the fact that a killer was waiting for him," is not to say anything about the pre-dead guy's intellectual capacity.

Probably, not sure.

But, you know, anything Mr. Beckel touches in politics turns to ashes.

The idea of superdelegates was to prevent another Jimmy Carter. How democratic, ay? Pun intended.

Now we might see another Carter term. God save us.

Meanwhile, where’s THAT tape of Michelle Obama ranting?

-- Even if it were to exist as a copyrighted property there would be no legal barrier to showing it publicly as long as there is no money involved. --

As a technical matter, I'd just say "it depends." Buying a work doesn't completely exhaust the rights of the creator of the work. For example, peer-to-peer sharing (no money involved) of music can violate copyright law.

But copyright law won't be the barrier between this material and publicity of it. Copyright holders can't outright prevent "copying." The most they are entitled to is reasonable payment. And this material (especially the inflammatory parts, if it exists) is of broad public interest, which augurs in favor of free (as in bier) distribution.

Be sure, if such a recording exists and I get my hands on it, I will post it.

Allan Keyes ran against Obama. I doubt most politicians would want to bring it up because of political correctness. Attacking the “Black church” is not good politics. And a complicit MSM didn’t do its job.

-- Didn't Barry say something along the lines of "Doesn't everyone's preacher say things like this?" --

Yes. He and his supporters argue that Trinity is a mainstream, garden variety Christian church, and then point out what they characterize as homophobic/hateful/divisive Bob Jones U, Falwell, Robertson, etc.

Some people think we should all turn off our BS antennae whenever their posts are considered. And that we are the ones who should understand.

I don’t know about you folks, but the term “whitey” just doesn’t do it for me as like in racially demeaning. I actually thinks it’s funny. Everything in my experience from childhood on says to me that any term or name ending in the eee sound at the end of the word or name is meant as a term of endearment. Like my son’s name Matthew, when he was little we called him Mattey. LOL

Anyway, I’m sure those foaming at the mouth don’t mean it thataway.

If the tapes are true, she really won’t accept the VP position, as Obama will be unelectable.

Yeah, but by offering to take it guarantees she will be the nominee if nobama is forced to withdraw. She wants to make sure algore and some other well known dude doesn't try to present himself as the savior of the party.
