I agree-- Michelle Obama should ditch her presidential campaign if this holds true.

Oh, wait...
To Obamatons nothing, absolutely nothing, could make a difference to you. If there was a tape of Obama himself, railing against whitey, would that matter?

We are talking about the potential First Lady - spewing racist hate-speech? And you would have the gall to say that it won't and shouldn't matter?

I can see it coming, its a racist thing to show this. Well, I am going to be ahead of this, if it does show and it truthful and I am guessing it is with the background, then finally we have proof that the Obama family is full of racist and we surely wouldnt want that family in our WH.

It was posted on another forum that Rush Limbaugh has a tape of Michelle Obama years ago calling white all kinds of names. It is clear, the Obamas, their church and their friends are racist people, we dont need a tape to know that, but this would be icing on the cake.
Oh that does it - he's lost my vote for sure now. I can't imagine having a racist president in the WH. I'm sure every president we've ever had has never had a racist or sexist bone in their body and I'm sure as hell not about to vote one in now.

Of course not! How dare you sanrene! Mr. O is the second coming of ... hmm ... uhhhhhhh .... got nothing there. First ladies just sit in the background with blank stares on their faces don't they? They bake chocolate chip cookies and love up their men? No, they do nothing in terms of public speaking engagements and national campaigns, noooooooooo!

All they claim to have is a video of Michelle in the pulpit while Rev. Wright uses the term "whitey". There's nothing on her spewing hate speech. Wow, talk about clinging to straws. Looks likes some folks are getting REALLY desperate.

I too am looking forward to the Obama's presidential candidacy demise. The kool aid drenched will not flounder, but do agree the millions of undecided and Hillary supporters should take a closer look at this charlatan. Just vote no more Obamanation.

Of course. Who would want a president who railed against white people? I would have to change my support.

My point is that everyone who has criticised Obama has done so by criticizing people that aren't him: Wright, his wife, etc. This is probably why these attempts have failed and he has won a majority of the democratically elected Democratic delegates.

It is very telling of his "lack of judgement" and his beliefs, by the people he associates with and holds close.

I've learned in life, where there is smoke there is fire. Why are there so many racist, anti-American people that revolve around Obama? Makes the non-Koolaid drinkers (the thinkers) question him.

So they should either put up or shut up - either show the tape so folks can make up their own mind, or sit down.

If they've got the tape, show it - otherwise go away.

I think the opposition has figured out that Obama is the easier to beat in November. Hillary puts many more states in play.

They don't want to spring it now, before he gets the nomination, because Hill&Bill will just step in, by virtue of the SD's.

It's a good strategy. If and when they did put it out there, it will be all over for him.

Ostensibly, it’s because the Tennessee Republican Party issued an Internet video featuring Michelle Obama saying she’s proud of being an American only because her husband is running for president. Well, yes, we all heard that awhile ago.

But the real reason for Obama’s extraordinary freakout is that he fears the release of the videotape, reported here, of Michelle Obama in the pulpit of Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s church railing against “whitey.” And we don’t mean Whitey Ford. Four Republican sources have told me that the tape exists. I’ve also been informed that Karl Rove and his allies have a copy of it and are using it to raise funds for independent expenditure groups. The tape, I’m told, will be disclosed as the GOP October Surprise. It’s a ticking time bomb.

And I’ve learned that a right-wing Republican billionaire has put a $1 million bounty on the video. He doesn’t want John McCain to win, like a number of conservatives, and thinks Obama is a pathetically weak candidate. The billionaire wants that video released now.

Obama, speaking on ABC’s “Good Morning America” showed fear through his name-calling: “If they think that they’re gonna try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful. Because, that I find unacceptable. … The notion that you start attacking my wife or my family — you know, Michelle is the most honest, the best person I know. She is one of the most caring people I know. She loves this country. And for them to try to distort or to play snippets of her remarks in ways that are unflattering to her I think is … just low class.”

Does Obama have a copy of the “whitey” video? We know that he knows that his wife knows. The video really does exist. If we have to wait until October to see it, Obama might explode before then from the tension.

Obama Freakout Over Michelle Video: The Ticking “Whitey” Time Bomb : NO QUARTER
What would the wealthy Republicans motive be for wanting the tape, if he doesnt like McCain either? To have Obama drop out and then have Hillary win the election?
