Well, there is a
tape, apparently, but it doesn't say Whitey, it says Why'd he... in reference to President Bush.
The transcript is as follows:
From what I understand, it is a tape of Michelle Obama criticizing the Bush administration.
How you'd write it:
Why did Bush cut folks off medicaid?
Why did Bush let New Orleans drown?
Why did Bush do nothing about Jena?
Why did Bush put us in Iraq for no reason?
How you'd say it:
Why'd he cut folks off medicaid?
Why'd he let New Orleans drown?
Why'd he do nothing about Jena?
Why'd he put us in Iraq for no reason?
How Larry Johnson wants you to hear it:
Whitie cut folks off medicaid?
Whitie let New Orleans drown?
Whitie do nothing about Jena?
Whitie put us in Iraq for no reason?
I
would expect to see this drop the day before the election, just enough
time to get some airing on the evening news, but not enough time for a
retraction since the claims are completely ridiculous. Larry Johnson
the purveyor of this tape has been trumpeting this for weeks, ala Larry
Sinclair and the gay sex and drugs party. He also claims that Louis
Farrahkhan will appear along side Michelle and that Obama's campaign is
rife with Farrahkhan operatives.
Even republican supporters are a bit skeptical : "
FYI, for those expecting to SEE the tape, GET REAL. Read Larry Johnson’s description of what is ON the tape. That is the story.
The tape is REAL. Larry Johnson’s description of what is on the tape is two degrees removed from what is REAL.
And I am not a Hillary supporter. I am a McCain supporter. We don’t
need rumor and unsupported innuendo to elect John McCain. "
Many other comments on his blog are also calling him into question, this being friendly neocon territory.

For those that expect to see the tape, get real???
More like … get real and show the tape.
Showing it = making it real. Talking about what is on it = keeping it unreal.
I
would expect to see this blowing up, like I said very close to the
election with little or no time to respond. However, the email smears
not substantiated in reality have done alot with Obama's numbers, how
many are people looking for an excuse not to vote for him and how many
are actually being swayed by this information, I'm not sure.
