Well, today is supposed to be the day the big, huge, bad, devastating, apocalyptic, {insert-dire-adjective-here} political "bombshell" is supposed to drop on Senator The Obama's head.
Which... um... (looking around)...so far, no "boom."
So I am proposing we mount a "Bombshell Watch."
And thus, I make the first log entry:
6:13am PT so far, no "boom"
In the meanwhile, you can (if you like) read my own prediction
Man your posts, FReepers!
“I agree with you. We have a deeply flawed candidateMcCain. Obama has to be considered a heavy favorite in the general election.”
I agree with the both of you. The McCain candidacy is a disaster for the Republican Party. However, and you can quote me on this, “Barack Hussein Obama is un-electable.”
Write it down.
“...and that Bob Beckel was/is out of touch with reality”
Like to go with the safe bets, doncha, buddy?
Oh, so now Iran is a threat according to Barry! I thought it was this tiny country.....( bangs head on desk)
WHY WAS THIS SWEPT UNDER THE RUG???
Odinga had a pact with Islamists that if he won the election, he would force sharia law on the country and when Odinga lost the election, he instigated riots that resulted in 1500 deaths- among those were 50 people burned alive in a Christian church when they burned it to the ground!
Is Obama proud of his cousin, too? Must be. He went to Kenya and campaigned for him. But then, he told us long ago, I will stand with the Muslims...
Ok, Barry says he will do everything in his power to prevent Iran from getting a nuke........ But, he has to “redeploy” our troops from Iraq first..ok.......cough
“”That is a very good video Thanks for sharing””
Just remember to pass it on. Without the internet we will all go down with the ship.
Mrs. Obama: Tighty Whiteys!
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.
UPDATED: It seems really easy for Chicago local media, especially, to determine whether or not this is the right tape of Michelle Obama. All they need to do is pull the tape from this 2004 Conference (particularly the panel Michelle was on), which should be readily available (since this was a very large multi-day event). All a journalist needs to do is watch this tape: if this is not the right one, they’d know immediately and this issue would be debunked. But, logically, this seems to be the most likely source of the tape people have been talking about at NoQuarterUSA.net

Nonsense. Obama is the nominee of the Democrat party. He has three times the amount of money as McCain. The Dem primaries have established a huge network and infrastructure, including the Dems setting all kinds of records in every state in terms of numbers of voters. And the MSM will push Obama as much as any candidate they have ever pushed.
Obama will be running against a third Bush term, an unpopular war, and a flagging economy. He will be offering universal health care and amnesty. In a word, change.
Kerry came very close to winning against an incumbent President during wartime and a good economy. To think that Obama can't be elected is just an exercise in self-delusion.
Yeah, no doubt. McCain is such an utter boob. My wife, however, wonders if in fact he isn’t the dirtiest player we’ve ever seen, and that publicly he looks like he’s trying to “stop all this bickering” while secretly he’s the one behind all this stuff. You never know. He does NOT strike me as the most moral of people.
It all depends on the setting. I watched him give a televised speech once and he was pretty controlled. The minute they went off national broadcast, he got utterly looney.
I disagree: the tape can lack purely racists comments and still be so anti-America, anti-capitalism that it scares the bejeezus out of ordinary folk.
Likely the tape (if it truly exists) is being withheld until Obama is nominated, or until Hildabeast concedes. When that happens, the tape will be played.
Hillary might be waiting to play it, but I doubt it. Likely, some conservatives have it and will wait until after Obama is nominated. Maximum impact. The dems will either have to dump Obama (which will strip all of the black vote from the Dem party), or run a candidate who has attended a racists church for 20 years with his racist wife.
If so, Hillary would write off 90% of all the black vote. They would all sit at home. She won't do that, cause she could ONLY be elected with the black vote.
Agreed.
McCain is the only guy I’ve ever heard who can make “my friend” sound like a death threat.
the link no longer works....assuming the story is not BS and that is an accuarate description of what happens we get the best of both worlds- it pisses off the clinton supporters and further diminishes barry from the white vote he needs...
Oh, if the tape weren’t offensive, the Dems wouldn’t have any incentive to cushion the blow!
What I’m getting at is that overstating the case in advance with what would be such a graphic misrepresentation of the tape doesn’t fit into any Republican-motivated strategy at all. It does fit with how the Democrats might want to get all their bad news out as far in advance of November as possible, and if they can also make it backfire on their opponents by ginning up indignation over what’s not there, that’s all the better for them.
DON’T JINX IT!!!!
Is there an instance where anyone in "the Obama camp" has even been asked about this "bombshell"?
