"Why'd he" = "Whitey".... tape DOCTORED ("he" refers to B*sh)

[npincus]

If and when this rumored tape does materialize, of Michelle Obama speaking at Trinity church,FACT: she is berating the B*SH administration, reciting a litany of B*sh failures, asking repeatedly "Why'd he" he let people die in New Orleans, and so on. This "why'd he" in the hands of filthy GOP operatives has somehow morphed into "whitey", and this rumor has been gleefully disseminated by Clinton hardliners like Larry Johnson and GOP scum like Roger Stone.

After reading this, the set-up is laughable; no wonder they have not released the tape... rumor is so much more effective than the actual doctored clip would be. I'm guessing this will BACKFIRE big time.

There's been a flurry of activity in the blogosphere. One last push by Clinton supporters to attack Obama on personal and racial terms rather than substance.

A long time Clinton supporter, Larry Johnson, claims to have a tape of Michelle Obama speaking at Trinity United Church.

The 'bombshell' is a supposed rant against "Whitey".

The reality is Michelle speaking against George W Bush. "Why'd he let those people die in New Orleans?" "Why'd he drop so many off of Medicare?" etc...

It boils down to slang. "Why'd he" versus "Whitey".

But this video is supposed to hit in a few hours: 9am EST on June 2.

1. WOW-new lows for the Clinton campaign and their minions. rec'd

[WeDidIt]

3. We cannot lay this at the Clinton campaign

Larry Johnson is a supporter and has no direct connection to tthe campaign.

[Mezzo]

14. thank you. I'm not with the HRC campaign either but it's nice to see decency from OBama's side.

his supporters, not his camp.

[WeDidIt]

18. I think it's FAR more likely LArry Johnson is a poser

who really supports the right wing.

In fact, i'd say the percentage chance of that is in the nienties at this point.

[mod mom]

15. clintondems is a support group, Larry Johnson is a smear merchant-I correct my blame.

[berni_mccoy]

45. As far as we know. Larry Johnson has been part of her campaign.

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

57. has Clinton campaign denounced this very famous supporter?

or are they fine to let him act as spokesman and leader?

[Mezzo]

4. yeah, because Ivy League lawyers NEVER parse their words.

:rofl:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

7. ...

[Window]

13. Oh, where did you go charming Billy????

[wvbygod]

35. Has either case been confirmed?

You are quite quick to condemn Clinton so can you share the proof that either the tape does exist
and/or there is even a "why'd he" moment?

I'm confident such harshness towards Hillary and her supporters must have some factual backing so please feel free to share.

9. Yeah, seriously, this is about as bad as it gets.

It blows my mind that we're technically both Democrats.

Its like watching Annie Hall in real life.

[npincus]

11. No, I haven't had breakfast yet!

:rofl:

[frickaline]

21. lol zOMG here's the tape!!!1!!1!shiftone!!!!

http://youtube.com/watch?v=DaPBhxXhprg

[Gold Metal Flake]

22. Lulz for shift one.

Had not seen that one yet.

[LoZoccolo]

25. lol

I forgot about that. :thumbsup:

[BlooInBloo]

40. zomg! I never felt like I was missing anything by not seeing any Woody Allen movies til now!

:rofl:

[frickaline]

46. really makes plain how ridiculous all this is, doesn't it?

[npincus]

48. Oh, I loved "Sleeper"

but quite dated by now.

[Tatiana]

6. Lay this at the GOP doorstep. They are using the Clinton camp as a tool.

But they are the source of this smear campaign.

[frickaline]

12. I agree, I think so too

[oviedodem]

8. I know what is going on here: Rumors of the tape are happening today so

the supers can freeze a little. This would make the delegate results tomorrow come up short for Obama THUS he would need the supers to put him over the top. In other words he would not get the "pageantry" tomorrow night.

[goclark]

23. Obama must know about this dirty trick

and let's pray that he is ready to jump on it with Superman feet.

[npincus]

31. Obama must have his own video record of her remarks

or at least a transcript. They ought to drop this on the Internets- via a blog or better, put it on their own web site, in the cotext of how Repubs can only hope to win by dirty tricks and lies.

[AspenRose]

10. Now THAT is what I call DESPERATION

The comment at the blog is correct; the original video should be poised and at the ready to be compared against this doctored video.

"Fight fire with water"

[Cass]

16. So did "Greg from Visalia, CA" actually SEE this tape, or is he talking out his ass?

Who is "Greg from Visalia CA" and how would HE know what was said on that tape?

[npincus]

32. I've just contacted him directly with a more polite version of your query

and if he gets back to me, I surely will post.

[Cass]

55. Thank you! I look forward to his response to you.

:thumbsup:

[crankychatter]

58. I was born in Visalia and I can assure THAT, gives me supreme credibility

trust me

[leftofcool]

17. How do you know there is a doctored tape when there is no

evidence of a tape to begin with?

[mrreowwr_kittty]

29. There must have been another conference call.

This is like the 3rd time I've seen this particular talking point, and I've barely been up for half an hour.

[hiaasenrocks]

19. If she's just saying "Why'd he let those people die in New Orleans?"

then the explanation of the tape stops there and all is fine. But why do they also say it is doctored? Which is it? Misunderstanding of slang or a doctored tape?

[LoZoccolo]

24. That's not an either/or question.

It could be a twisted interpretation of the words that's been further doctored to make it sound more like the twisted interpretation.

[hiaasenrocks]

20. If she's just saying "Why'd he let those people die in New Orleans?"

then the explanation of the tape stops there and all is fine. But why do they also say it is doctored? Which is it? Misunderstanding of slang or a doctored tape?

[mrreowwr_kittty]

28. Keep trying.

I didn't know the phrase "why'd he" is slang, I'd always thought it was a contraction of "why would he". But if you want to keep believing that Michelle Obama actually talks like a character from a 70s blaxploitation film, using terms like "whitey" in earnest, you go right ahead.

:crazy:

[Marie26]

26. So lame. nt

[beetlejuiceonline]

27. LOL. This is funny. Debunking a video everyone says doesn't exist. LOL

How can someone write talking points about a video they haven't even seen? This is nuts.
The "Whitey"/"Why'd He" meme is a myth.

[SoonerPride]

30. You're a myth,

I smell pizza.

[mod mom]

34. Clarifying. You're correct no "whitey" video existed. Michelle knew she never uttered those words,

but must have figured out how smear merchants such as Larry Johnson could have mis=contrued her words for political reasons. It's shameful.

[Political Tiger]

42. This is the dumbest thing since Geraldo opened Al Capone's vault.

[demokatgurrl]

33. Have you ever played Helter Skelter backwards?

This reminds me of that. What utter bullshit.

[BlooInBloo]

36. Clinton supporters who don't speak out against this suck.

[IA_Seth]

39. Sure do...

And I am (was) a Clinton supporter.

This shit is gettin real old, it's time to come back together and do this.

[2rth2pwr]

43. Speak out against what? A made up defense of a tape that is only

rumored to exist?

LOL!


You guys crack me up.

[BlooInBloo]

51. Thanks for providing the best possible example of what I'm talking about!

Much appreciated.

[Nia Zuri]

37. She meant to say "jive-ass honkey"

[tammywammy]

38. LOL

:rofl:

[faithfulcitizen]

[e-mail] -TELL HIM WHAT YOU THINK.

[faithfulcitizen]

41. [e-mail] -TELL HIM WHAT YOU THINK.

[npincus]

56. my pleasure

[genna]

44. This does feel like Republican tactics

Surely after all the race baiting stuff, HRC would not torch her remaining black supporters by doing something this loathsome?

Is Fox News beating this drum yet?

[frickaline]

47. yep

And who will be left to blame when the tape fails to surface?

Oh that's right, the Democrats. The Clintons. And the GOP gets out of this unscathed.

Total set up.

[LSK]

49. Wow, just wow!

I have spent a lot of time in the past 7 years arguing with right wingers and freepers. This is typical of the types of idiotic arguments they put forth.

K&R this so we stop this nonsense right now!

[dailykoff]

50. Well, Michelle, pastor Wright, father Pfleger, and Will Smith aren't on the ticket.

so this is all pretty much farting in the wind.

[npincus]

52. well, since Roger Stone was spewing this on FUX yesterday

discussing the alleged use of the word "whitey" and that there must be something to the story since he's gotten 7 media requests about the tape, I would say pretending it's not another Republican dirty trick and turning the other cheek is foolish. He and his ilk are trying to plant a very destrcutive seed in the minds of voters. If you think that the Rev. Wirght crap didn't harm Obama with some voters, you're mistaken.

[dailykoff]

53. Don't worry, I'm with you, it all needs to be debunked and quickly.

What I mean is, none of it says anything about Obama who as far as I can tell is still as squeaky clean as Barbie's butt.

[underpants]

54. Does anyone remember the SNL skit "The Lifer Follies"???

http://snltranscripts.jt.org/75/75klifer.phtml

Director: Quite alright. May we see the next man, please?

< Third Prisoner enters >

Assistant: Name?

Third Prisoner: Garrett Johnson.

Director: It says here, Mr. Johnson, that you are serving a life sentence for first degree murder and insulting an officer of the law.

Third Prisoner: That's right.

Director: What are you going to do for us today?

Third Prisoner: I've been in dolitary for years now, and I've studied and developed my talent for writing music, and I've written lots of songs. Here's a song I'm gonna sing which is the sum of my philosophy. < sings >

"I'm gonna get me a shotgun and kill all the whities I see,
I'm gonna get me a shotgun and kill all the whities I see.
When I kill all the whities I see, then whitey he won't bother me,
I'm gonna get me a shotgun and kill all the whities I see.
Then I'll get a white woman who's wearing a navy blue sweater.."

< Guards pull him away >

[2rth2pwr]

59. Maybe she was saying "white tee"? You know, like white tshirt or the band.

Or how about "why tea"? Maybe she just really likes coffee.

maybe white "E" ? like a suggestion for how she would prefer the font on campaign materials to look like.
