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?
Good point. There are probably many copies of the tape(if it exists).
It will be interesting to find out which liberal media outlets have been sitting on it for months in an effort to protect Obama!
Dosn’t the Surpreme court term end in June? Remember the huge 2nd amendment case..any day now?
Good day to release the tape for the MSM
Well, that’s pretty niggardly of them.
Don’t white me bro!
Tickle your ass with a feather.
WHAT DID YOU SAY?
Particularily nasty weather.
Is he trying to stay low for a while?
If so, he's likely trying to limit his exposure to the press after the news of his leaving Trinity Church came out.
Yes, I thought probably she was saying “Why Dey”. That’s what a Harvard education will do for you, eh?
Looks like we are in for a funny, punny thread.
Sorry, I meant Princeton. I got the two puppets mixed up.
His wife Michelle will prove to be a bigger problem for Obama than his former minister. Wait and see -
Have you noticed that Father Pfeger could EASILY pass for Algore’s brother? Looks very much like him. It made me shudder.
It's called affirmative action, and it is whitey's fault.
One would think that a Harvard educated black woman, born with a silver spoon in her mouth, would have elevated herself from ebonics by now...especially when she aspires to be the first lady.
Apparently, the Obama people have it or they wouldn’t have had their talking points ready to swarm the leftist blogs this morning.
“Carry a laser down the road that I must travel”

(Real lyrics: “Kyrie elason down this road that I must travel.”)
I seriously thought they were singing this.
Democrat Headquarters along with the Clinton's "burning the flag" photo. We need to send G. Gordon Liddy on a retrieval mission.
Thanks for the update Michelle.
Let me [color=red]aks[/color] you a question. Isn’t Michelle sitting with Farrakhan damning enough in itself?
