I think it’s pretty clear that the tape is a hoax...and what she said was “Why ‘d He?” Instead of Whitey...

[Izzy Dunne]

interesting, if not a deal breaker.

What does it take to "break the deal" for some of these folks?

[PeteB570]

Is this the one where BHO says she is saying “Why did he”?

[steve-b]

The tape will surface in 24 Business Hours.

I am not trying to steal thunder from HillBuzz. That blogger is breaking important news. I’m posting the article in full because, having seen what happened to our site, a link to his will kill his server with the flood of traffic. Until Sunday, I was operating on one server. We’re up to four and barely keeping pace. HillBuzz writes at http://hillbuzz.blogspot.com/

What’s on the Michelle Obama Rant Tape?
Here’s what’s known so far:

The Michelle Obama Rant Tape was filmed between June 26th - July 1st 2004 in Chicago, IL at the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition Conference at Trinity United Church: specifically the Women’s Event.

Michelle Obama appeared as a panelist alongside Mrs. Khadijah Farrakhan and Mrs. James Meeks.

Bill Clinton spoke during the Conference, as did Bill Cosby and other speakers, but not at the panel Michelle attended.

Michelle Obama spoke at the Women’s Event, but referenced Bill Clinton in her rant — his presence at the conference was the impetus for her raving, it seems.

For about 30 minutes, Michelle Obama launched into a rant about the evils of America, and how America is to blame for the problems of Africa. Michelle personally blamed President Clinton for the deaths of millions of Africans and said America is responsible for the genocide of the Tutsis and other ethnic groups. She then launched into an attack on “whitey”, and talked about solutions to black on black crime in the realm of diverting those actions onto white America. Her rant was fueled by the crowd: they reacted strongly to what she said, so she got more passionate and enraged, and that’s when she completely loses it and says things that have made the mouths drop of everyone who’s seen this.

The “tape” is a DVD that Trinity United sold on its website, and possibly offered free for download up until March 2008 when Trinity’s site was scrubbed and the DVDs were no longer offered for sale.

This outburst happened just one month before the 2004 Democratic Convention, when Barack Obama delivered the keynote address.

And then there’s this thread:

This should be interesting, if true.

It would be interesting for all of us to know how you, in ignorance of the actual source, can say that it's "pretty clear that the tape is a hoax". If it's a hoax, how could you be quoting her from it? I think you're whistling past the graveyard.

[popdonnelly]

It’s interesting that all this “Whitey” buzz is happening on pro-Hillary websites.

[nikos1121]

hahahaha The quote is coming from a transcipt from the Obama campaign. There’s a tape of sorts, but already they are trying to de bug it.

BTW..you don’t have to be insulting do yu? Or s that in your nature at 6am?

where’s the ah geeze guy when you need him

If that's true, I find it hard to believe ONLY one person has it. That's the same timeframe as when everyone was downloading and/or purchasing Rev. Wright's sermons from their site.

[Travis McGee]

I don't care about "whitey" as much as I care about the "red" Obamas.

"Our individual salvation depends on collective salvation.

Our collective service can shape the destiny of this generation." ~~Barack Obama

"From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs." ~~Karl Marx

"Barack Obama will require you to work. He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your divisions. That you come out of your isolation, that you move out of your comfort zones. That you push yourselves to be better. And that you engage. Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual, uninvolved, uninformed." ~~Michelle Obama, 2008

She sounds just like Mao's wife Jiang Qing, leader of the "Gang of Four."

[aruanan]

BTW..you don’t have to be insulting do yu? Or s that in your nature at 6am?

Quotation marks or using italics can sidestep so many problems. If I were insulting, I'd point out typos. ;-}

[Jaxter]

It’s beginning to look a lot like Fitzmas.

[ishabibble]

Are you going by the reports from yesterday? If so, it would come out as, “WHY'D HE BUSH LET NEW ORLEANS DROWN?”
“WHITEY BUSH” makes much more sense. Don't even try to spin this as poor syntax.

This is just awful all the way around, but coming from Sherry Palmer, it's no surprise. All the hate from Rev. Wright and the poobahs in that church isn't nearly as appalling as the behaviour of the people in the pews, cheering and applauding. Talk about a punch in the guts...

[SE Mom]

Oh wow. If Rudy has the tape and he’s decided to hold on to it til later in the season- it will have lost a lot of its punch. The Tape Watch is reaching critical mass- now is the time.

[samtheman]

So the tape rumor now takes on significant details. Rudy is now the Holder of the Tape.

When a rumor really gets going it gets fueled by more and more specific details, all just as grounded in reality as the original hazy rumor. That is, not at all.

But the interesting thing about this rumor is how it is taking on a life of its own. It almost doesn’t matter anymore whether or not there actually is a tape.

To many people, the tape exists and it is proof of Michelle and Barry’s racism.

Well, you know what, in a metaphysical sense the tape does exist because Michelle and Barry really are a couple of racists.

This is a clear case of FAKE BUT ACCURATE!

[PGalt]

How many Whitey problems can a man have. Phleger and especially the POS Ayers are enough for me.

[GWMcClintock]

How did the rant happen in 2004, when Katrina (which I understand is referenced) didn’t occur until 2005?
