The Michelle Obama tape story may not be true, but...

Warning to Obama Pod People: I am speculating "aloud" in this post. L.R. is not a newspaper. Please don't wear out your little fingers with High School journalism class comments about "fairness". If you want background on M.O. get thee to the Google and the Youtube!

Onward:

A rumor that tape exists of Michelle Obama using the epitaph "whitey" is flying around the net. The story started at No Quarter. Ex CIA man Larry Johnson says he has if from 4 sources that there is a damaging tape and the GOP intends to use it in the Fall. I don't know more than that - what is interesting to me as a blogger is the story itself. Going through comments at No Quarter there are certainly plenty of folks who question if the tape really exists. I do, too. We'll see. What next to no one questions is if Michelle Obama is the type that calls Caucasians "whitey" in casual conversation. I tend to believe it but I at least questioned it. The underlying assumption is she is the type who would say something like "whitey". Not even the Obama Pod People are defending HER over there. They are just dismissing the story.
I am not saying she did make the remarks. I am saying I have no problem believing M.O. could. Hardly, anyone else seems to either. This is the real issue the Obama Pod people are missing. (They are out there - paid or not - commenting on pro Hill blogs. You can tell by the Scientology-esque scripts they use.)

Michelle "I'm finally proud of my country" Obama fits the bill perfectly. If I were casting a film with a woman who called people "whitey" - I'd ring her agent up first. The persona of Michelle Obama is ugly. (Note: I did not say SHE was ugly. What I've seen her say already has a nasty tone. So stand down Obama Pod People). She seems to be one gripe after another and all together unpleasant. (Stand down O.P.P. I said seems. ) She ripped white people in her Princeton thesis. She said she did not have the scores to get in to Princeton "but did anyway." She was annoyed she had to pay her student loans back.
Her stump speech was - until Axelrod took control of it - a compendium of 60's era resentments. She said in a pissy tone on 60 Minutes that "As a black man, Barack, could get shot at a gas station." (Presumably if he was white, Asian, or Latino he could NOT be shot at a gas station???) She would like to "rip Bill Clinton's eyes out." (Nice. What a fine First Lady this one is gonna make.) And of course her famous "I'm finally proud..." moment all add up to a rather harsh picture.

Based on what we already know about her, tape or no tape, the story fits.



I've said it before - the underlying theme of Obama's campaign is anger not hope. Egg on an Obamite even for a minute and the fury roars out. I welcome the Obama 400 here at L.R. It is fun to watch them get rattled when rational questions are raised about their Dear Leader.

Obama pods: Look closer. Keep looking closer and you will suddenly have an epiphany and know Obama is one rotten egg.
