    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Why Does the Michelle Obama Tape Rumor Match a 2006 Novel?

    Sometimes, this rumor of this alleged tape of Michelle Obama denouncing “whitey” sounds like something out of a clichéd political thriller novel.

    Actually, it sounds exactly like something out of a clichéd political thriller novel. Specifically, Stephen Frey’s The Power Broker, published in 2006 by Ballantine Books.

    A major plot line of the novel is the presidential campaign of Democrat Jesse Wood, aiming to be the country’s first African American president — “Wood was handsome, smart, charismatic, and being mentioned increasingly often in the press as someone who could unite a twenty-first century America growing more, not less, racially and economically divided.” (p.35)

    ...

    And by page 130, his opponents find a videotape that could ruin his candidacy…</div>

    Barack also discredited it today, so you know it isn't true.

    O'Reilly said something last night that was very interesting, and spot-on. If the Republican Party or McCain go after Michelle Obama and not for a good reason, then they will be (rightfully) burned for it, and will lose the Presidency this year.

    Why do people not listen to Air America radio or watch Keith Olbermann? Because hate constantly flows from there. If the GOP attacks Michelle, then people will ignore them. Let the voters decide if they like the Obamas or not.

    There is no tape. If there was a tape, Obama wouldn't have denied there being a tape. He is too smart to play these denial games and then watch it eventually come out. If there was a tape, he wouldn't have denied it, and then have his campaign leak it early on so that there was no "October Surprise".

    I find it amazing how people still believe the guys saying that the tape exists. First Michelle said it at a rally, than at Trinity United, then it was her saying it with Farakan with her at Trinity, then it was her saying it at a press conference with Farahkan, then it was her saying it in response to Katrina. The story keeps changing, yet sadly some keep believing.

    your blind belief of a candidate, any candidate standing for public office, is more dangerous than a loaded gun in the hands of a toddler....all these guys will do whatever they have to get elected, the least of which would be to lie about whether a tape of an alleged racists rant exists....if a tape becomes public, you really think it will be worse because he said there wasnt one? wake up bro....

    Well you can ignore logic, which says there is no tape, and throw out rhetoric trying to discredit logic, and then go on to make up things that Obama said, while you hold your belief in a made up tape about Michelle Obama, and compare Barack Obama to a monkey.

    What are you going to tell me next, that Barack Obama might be a muslim?

    Well what evidence is there to being a tape. Tell me what evidence there is that leads you to believe that the tape exists.

    I never said the tape exists, I said IF the tape exists, it will be damaging....you are the only one dealing in absolutes here, stating the tape doesnt exist.....perhaps you should learn to read

    btw, saying someone resembles something is not the same as comparing them to that same something....in the other thread Chutney suggested that McCain looked like a burnt Nazi and Darth Sidious....does that mean hes comparing McCain to a Sith Lord? just as ridiculous

    You are making hardline, baseless attacks with "your blind belief of a candidate, any candidate standing for public office, is more dangerous than a loaded gun in the hands of a toddler.". Yet, my support in the candidate is well grounded considering that the tape does not exist. You are implying that it does exist when you are making such statements.

    Simple logic says the tape doesn't exist. The blogger has constantly changed their story, and now they are so outlandish that they are saying that the Rudy Guliani campaign has what isn't a tape....but a DVD!!! The part of the transcript that is in the circulating email is so preposterous. Michelle Obama is too intelligent to say those things. This is supposed to be from after Hurricane Katrina, are we really supposed to believe that a US Senator's wife...who there is a great buzz about in the party of being on the rise, who is also very intelligent is going to say these things?

    Although there is no point further debating this with you, because it is quite clear that you are trying to run a small scale smear campaign against Obama.

    The comparison to Curious George isn't an isolated occurrence. I haven't seen Chutney make hate fueled posts against McCain around here, but you have a history of spreading utter bullshit against Obama fueled from hate.

    Way to cut out the entire post BG7. Beef was commenting on a picture in the thread, it was a joke, and you made it mean something completely different in here.

    And uh, you seem to be religious. I have a completely off topic question. Do you believe the world is going to end in 2012? If you do, and if the world doesn't end, does your God not exist?

    Hatred of Radical Racism? I guess im guilty as charged....Hatred of the political party that destroyed the black family? Im guilty again....Hatred of the party that damns family values in favor of feeling good at all cost? Wow, im guilty again....but when I wake up every day and look in the mirror, I know what I stand for, because its reflected in how I live my life, not in speeches written for me by others....If that makes me a hate-monger, im glad to be one.....

    I don't think the Bible is a book that should be taken literally. With that said, I don't think there is anything in the Bible that says the world is going to end in 2012, that is the Mayan calendar, and I believe has nothing to do with the Bible.
