This is pure rumor:
Reported verbiage from Michelle Obama’s tape
Michelle Obama, “Once again, the white man keeps us down, what’s up with Whitey, Why’d he attack Iraq, Why’d he let Katrina happen, Why’d he leave millions of children behind. This is the legacy the white man gives us.”
Again the above is an alleged quote from a rumored video featuring Michelle Obama.
I never thought there would be a dumber party than ‘R’s’, but the Dems nominating Obama takes the cake.
We’ll find out if the rumor is right or wrong soon enough.
It’s fun to think about ... but until it is proven to exist, it’s just so much fantasy.
If it’s true, we have to make sure it isn’t released until it’s impossible for Obama to not be the nominee.
If it’s not true, it’s probably being floated by the Hillary camp.
Will be interesting to know positively that there is such a video and what it contains.
Bring it on! Can’t wait to hear how Obama spins this video if it really exists.
Maybe a quick divorce from Michelle and the a marriage to a White Trophy Blond. He seems to have that Clinton teflon where every thing slides off him.
Sorta like a darling of the MSM.
If such a video existed, Hillary would have posted a link by now. I don’t buy it.
On the plus side, if true, this will make everyone forget her ‘this is the first time I am proud of America’ comment.
RAT or not, I discount "rumored" items until their existence is verified.
There truely is a God! This person to be the First Lady is just beyond my every being as a human and an American. Any bets when we will see it?
If that’s the quote in question then it’s ambigous and could be taken two ways. The first “Whitey” could have been “Why’d he” as in “What’s up with “Why’d he”; Why’d he does this, why’d he do that, why’d he do the other.
no way...I don’t believe it
Personally, I believe it’s irresponsible to post this kind of stuff. It amounts to nothing more than wishful thinking. That’s just me though.
Who dat that said dat?
I was up in DC this weekend. Saw millions of Obama stickers.
My buddy who is a Dem., not a lib, but a dem because his father was etc... He is very nervous about both the candidates. He was shocked that they decided on the two of the most unlikable ultra-leftists. I told him that McCain ain’t exactly a conservative.
You like many others are assuming that the Clinton camp has a copy.....
FREEDOM OF SPEECH IS WHAT THEY WILL HIDE BEHIND. AMERICA IS A FREE COUNTRY AND YOU CAN SAY ANYTHING.
since when do we report RUMOR here?
this is not Democrap Underground or some such site
I was reading a left wing blog and they are saying this tape has Michelle bashing Bush not ‘whitey’. Not putting anything into it, just putting out something they will use if the tape actually exists.
With her tone and facial expressions during speeches I suspect she has more against the white race then her husband.
If it's pure rumor why is this guy spreading it around?
If it's real, it'll keep until AFTER the Rat convention. Otherwise, it could turn out like the Klinton grand jury tape - "pure anticlimax".
Since she was onstage with Farrakhan it will be easy to infer from the context what she said.
The bet is this: Does the tape exist at all?
Marines call this kind of situation a goat-roping: A lot of activity going on, but not much being accomplished.
We’ll see, I guess.
If there is a tape out there, I am sure she will sound a little more elitist, and racist but in a kinder, gentler, more appealing way like her hubby.

If Whitey=President Bush, the left will have no problem with this yet to be released video.
They’d cheer it. Probably score a few points with the leftwingnuts.
I think that the rumor of this video has now reached a point where it doesn’t matter if it really exists or not. True, if it exists, the political fallout will be devastating once it’s shown. But I think that the story of this purported video has now become so widespread that many, if not most, people who hear about it believe it.
Yeah, I hear that O.J. has a small harem of white trophy blondes he can introduce Obamanure to.
She isn't gonna want her fingerprints on it. They shopped around the Jeremiah Wright story for months until Brian Ross finally bit. If this video really does exist, the MSM will be happy to spike it. Someone ought to just take the bull by the horns and ask Michelle Obama if she ever said this.
On DU they are saying that they want to hear the CONTEXT ... as though calling whites “Whitey” has any appropriate context!
Team Obama will accuse the GOP of being so desperate that it puts out doctored videos.
The source of this rumor is the Clinton smear machine as this is the way they operate with their backs against the wall. They feed false information to a supporter in the press so that the information cannot be traced back to them. A desperate move indeed! Examples of these tactics used by the Clintons in the past are documented in Mark Halperin’s book, “The Way to Win, 2008”.
So's Hillie. And we all know what kinda mouth she's got...
Whoa. This will sink Obama’s campaign. If this is true, Hillary will get the nomination in a very messy Dem convention.
You are probably wright, but what is amazing is how these words fit in with Ms. Obamanure’s character and past pronouncements so well as to make it believable that the video exists.
While I have my doubts about the existence of such a tape, I have NO doubt both Michelle and Barack firmly believe in this kind of racist claptrap.
“Once again, the white man keeps us down, what’s up with Whitey, Why’d he attack Iraq, Why’d he let Katrina happen, Why’d he leave millions of children behind. This is the legacy the white man gives us.”
"Preach it Sisssstah!"
Then the Dems oww Trent Lott and every other republican a huge apology. They can not hide behind the first amendment on this, especially in light of what happened to Imus.
Well, we certainly have not one real indication that there is such a tape.
I hope everyone realizes that until or unless a tape materials. All of this is innuendo at this point.
Normally- you’d be correct about the educated woman talking...but if you’ve heard some of her speeches, particularly one in North Carolina- (I can’t put my hands on the link right now) you’ll hear a very different Michelle than the one normally presented in the MSM.
This is pure rumor:
The Houston Texans will win the Super Bowl this year........
Unless you forgot a sarc tag, I'm guessing you're not very familiar with Mrs. Obama's general demeanor.
You know, I’ll laugh if it’s a Michelle Obama/Tommy Lee tape.
I’ll wait to be convinced, but I am really doubting this. She probably would not use the word “whitey” when her husband was being touted as a presidential candidate. These alleged comments list things that routibely are blamed on George Bush, not all white people, because that would indict white democrats as well.
Oh, but it does!
It's not racist when 'Rats do it since, by definition, 'Rats can't be racist.
The video has to come out now, because she didn't get what she wanted in the primaries. Right now, it looks like Obama is the nominee. So he has to be stopped before the convention. Priamries are over -- and the video is coming out. There's no coincidence there. Hillary needs this.
On the other hand, if everyone knows that Hillary is destroying Obama, that's not so good for her. So it's important that Hillary "doesn't have a copy". This was uncovered -- you see -- by a Republican who is "no longer in the race".
Obama gets kocked out. Hillary gets the nomination. The GOP gets the blame.
Obviously: the best game plan for the GOP would be for this to come out in October. The fact that it's coming out in June tells you everything you need to know.
There is an awful lot of specific detail starting to leak out about the alleged tape recording, and from multiple independent sources. Either this is a terrifically planned hoax (and that is a possibility), or this is political dynamite with a lit fuse. We shall see, and very shortly, I’d guess.
