Over on 538.com - Rabid Freepers screaming about Michelle Obama's "Whitey" Tape about to be released

[TornadoTN]

This is all that they've got. That and robocalls.

Their sources, of course, are WND and API - but be prepared for the frenzy of spontaneous circle-jerking coming from their side today:

Now, in a statement dated Friday because of the time difference, API Chief Editor Korir has promised that the tape will be made available after his lawyers clear it for publication, and he denied being an advocate either for or against Obama's campaign.

He said the delay also is intended to allow Michelle Obama to explain her actions first.

There was no response to a WND call to the Obama campaign headquarters in Chicago tonight to request a comment.

"A number of Americans who are die-hard Obama followers have tried their best to intimidate API using all kinds of threatening methods when they call in and when they e-mail us," the API statement said. "They are implying that API is planning to destroy Obama's chances to become the next U.S. president. API does not have a direct interest in the U.S. presidential elections and we want Obama supporters to understand that. However, when someone who may become the next first lady makes such comments as in the story we have published, the public have the right to know. Intimidation directed to the publishers of the story is not the answer.

"The delay to make public the recordings is expected to give time to Mrs. Obama to come clean and tell the American people that her comments were not meant to harm anyone but that she was reacting to the media pressure on her husband. She should also come out and tell the American people that she will not discriminate those who are not Obama fanatics if she becomes the first lady," the statement said.

Another GOP/McCain weak attempt to throw more mud out and see if it sticks.

1. Same as the last time

big fat lie.

[TornadoTN]

8. It's almost the same press release from last time too

It's like a grown man still believing in the tooth fairy (or other assorted fictional characters).


This is probably a good representation of their fan base:

2. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!

that's it.

[Starry Messenger]

3. As if.

God they are desperate. Maybe someone asked her if Barack wore "tighty-whities". :sarcasm:

[Alter Ego]

4. Ahahahahahaha.

They're still clinging to this?

Newsflash, WorldNet Daily: The Obama campaign doesn't answer your calls because you're less legitimate than Fox "News".

5. I Call BS

[Alhena]

6. I think that's the "Obama was born in Kenya" bogus tape

it's a scam being run by an African news outlet.

[FVZA_Colonel]

9. I thought this was supposed to be Michelle screaming at them for running rumors about the Kenya

birth certificate? That just seems completely out of pattern for Michelle, regardless of where the "news service" is located.

[TornadoTN]

10. Personally, I get dizzy just trying to keep track of the chain-email claims and the "revelations"

Seriously - who has the time to sit at home and write this filth?

They sit around circle-jerking to some fantasy that will never materialize. I will never be able to fathom or understand these people.

[AspenRose]

7. "Why'd he?"

Not WHITEY.

Idiots.

[blogslut]

11. Oh, that's a lovely commentor

Did you read their :sarcasm: awesome :sarcasm: lesbian joke?

Fuck these cerdos.

[TornadoTN]

12. Yes I saw that and all of the other filth they've spewed in that thread

Apparently, they have pretty lax moderation over there on 538. I still love the site though!

[Kalyke]

13. They're also still clinging to the "we have Kenyan birth certificates" farce, too.

Check out the Knoxville News-Sentinel's story forums. They're crowing about that there.

I just say, 'OK, open that up and it will come out that McCain was born in Panama."

Seriously, is that all they have?
