The "Whitey" Bombshell?

So, the rumor going around on the internets is that there is some tape of Michelle Obama using the word "whitey" with Louis Farakhan on some panel or something. Which, you know, would be bad. This story is mainly being pushed by the fanatically pro-Clinton blog No Quarter, but it appears to have some resonance elsewhere. Also, there's some discussion that (if it's real) it's a syntax error. Which, you know, would be plausible.

Anyhoo, allegedly the Republicans have the tape and were hoping to use it for an October Surprise. Also allegedly, it's supposed to drop tomorrow and will mean that Obama's nascent Nominee-hood will asplodinate all over again. Or something.


And yes, I'm just posting this to preclude the inevitably breathlessly stupid thread on this subject started by one of our inevitably breathlessly stupid contributors. Carry on.

even as a preemtive anti-troll strike, this is still boring.

Yawn. Slur boats for Truth!

It's complete bullshit. Total and complete bullshit. What she says, over and over is...

Larry Johnson is a serial idiot.

SO it boils down to regional accents??

She was the head of public relations for the University of Chicago Hospitals.

And you know, um... like most of their friends are... whiteys.

BOY do I find it hard to believe she would say that.

That's nothing compared to the time Bill called Clarence Thomas "Blackey Pink-Hands"
