A really interesting theory about the alleged Michelle Obama tape, which could explain a lot, from the liberal blog Booman Tribune. Michelle, offering a speech critical of President Bush, offers a refrain of "why'd he" the words "why did he" mushed together that sounds like "whitey" on the tape.
Apparently, if the tape ever comes to light, her words will sound something like:
Whitey cut folks off Medicaid?
Whitey let New Orleans drown?
Whitey do nothing about Jena?
Whitey put us in Iraq for no reason?
...when the intended message is,
Why'd he cut folks off Medicaid?
Why'd he let New Orleans drown?
Why'd he do nothing about Jena?
Why'd he put us in Iraq for no reason?
Or so we will be told. The irony is, if the latter interpretation is accurate, we still have a potential first lady accusing her husband's predecessor of "letting" New Orleans drown.
UPDATE: Contemplating the rumor below, I wondered when and how Michelle Obama and Louis Farrkhan would appear on a panel together. Farrakhan doesn't seem like the type to voluntarily share the stage. But then I noted that in late 2007, Trinity United gave Farrakhan its lifetime achievement award with a full ceremony the video shown that evening is still on YouTube, with the feminine announcer declaring, "For his commitment to truth, education and leadership, we honor Minister Louis Farrakhan with the Rev. Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. lifetime achievement award." (Before you ask, the announcer is not Michelle Obama.) Is it possible the two are at the head table for a banquet? Is this the circumstance of Michelle Obama's remarks?
This had better be resolved or it will be an embarrassment. Accusing her of something she didn’t say is not a good idea.
It’s a lefty doing the accusin, so its a win win situation
Boomlakalaka..
...Barack and I are...
Yeah, I went to Princeton and Harvard...
So you say.
Well the media sat and sat and sat on the instant messages and emails from the Democrat aide who was conversing with a Republican congressman.
And then the media had the nerve to say that the GOP knew (less) and “did nothing”.
Truth came out in the congressional investigation. Democrats knew too. There is collusion in the media between the networks and the DNC.
And if Michelle is out on the stump all the time, why doesn’t some brave media member ask whether it’s possible there is such a recording and if she may have said what she’s been reported to have said? It’s not as if Pubbies in a similar circumstance would be spared such a query!
(And if Michelle’s not out on the stump, how about a media member being really, really brave and asking Barak about it instead?)
And Barry always uses “A” before a word starting with a vowel. “I had A uncle...” “I talked to A Army general...” It drives me nuts!
*Barack*
“There is collusion in the media between the networks and the DNC.”
No doubt!!
Barack has written about his own rejection of the white aspect of his persona.
He is a confessed bigot and has chastised a friend of his who entered into a bi-racial relationship.
I guess I’m too old to remember where it came from.
For somebody that’s as educated as Michelle Obama, why isn’t she enunciating her words?
and Obama serves on a board with Ayers
and they both belong to a Black Liberationist racist church
All fine, except for the POTUS office
“...when the intended message is,
Why’d he cut folks off Medicaid?
Why’d he let New Orleans drown?
Why’d he do nothing about Jena?
Why’d he put us in Iraq for no reason?”
Wow! This is the “bombshell” Larry Johnson had the blogosphere breathlessly waiting for? Plus the he heard it from a friend, who heard it from a friend, who heard it from a friend thing? ROFL!!! This is nothing. It`s LESS than nothing.
Larry Johnson’s standard of evidence:
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin’ around
[apologies to REO Speedwagon]
[this part of the song may have a lot more relevance to Hillary and Bill,if she’d ever dump him]:
You take it on the run baby
If thats the way you want it baby
Then I don’t want you around
I don’t believe it
Not for a minute
You’re under the gun so you take it on the run
You’re thinking up your white lies
You’re putting on your bedroom eyes
You say you’re coming home but you won’t say when
But I can feel it coming
If you leave tonight keep running
And you need never look back again
That’s like the old refrain of the young girl who learned her family was moving to a notorious mining camp in the California High Sierras in the 19th century...
“Goodbye, God. I’m going to Bodie.”
They spun that years later to:
“Good ! By, God, I’m going to Bodie !”
