Obamessiah Addresses Allegations About His Wife

There is a rumor that a video exists of Michelle Obama using a disparaging term for white people but that video has not been made public. Rumors are that the Clinton camp desperately wants it because it would certainly give her a tremendous shot in the arm. Certainly the Republicans want it and would hold it until after the Democratic convention. It would likely be released as an October surprise.

Barry O was asked about the rumors today and he took the chance to blast the reporter who asked it. Obama indicated that this has been going on all along; someone gets a bogus email and it gets played up until a reporter asks about it. Obama, as is his pattern, called this a distraction. Any time someone addresses something that Obama does not like it is a distraction. He also has a pattern of blowing off all the riff raff in his life by saying that the person they are now is not the person he knew. Wright, Pfleger, and Rezko are not the people he knew.

Anyway, the issue at hand will be interesting especially if a video actually exists and is shown. Obama denied it and he said that just because it came in an email it was not true:

“Frankly, my hope is people don’t play this game,” Obama said. “It is a destructive aspect of our politics. Simply because something appears in an e-mail, that should lend it no more credence than if you heard it on the corner. Presumably the job of the press is to not to go around and spread scurrilous rumors like this until there is actually anything, an iota, of substance or evidence that would substantiate it.” The Politico [emphasis mine]

I think the possibility of such a video existing is very slim. If one existed it would have been all over the Internet by now. It is nearly impossible to keep stuff like this from being aired. However, if the MSM got it first it would be destroyed just to protect him. Until one pops up, I have to believe this is a rumor.

Obama made a great point. He said that just because it comes in an email it is not necessarily true. I agree with him 100%. As a matter of fact I keep getting emails from his campaign telling me that Obama will change America, that he has the hope and that he can run this country. I have gotten emails from them telling me he is best qualified and that Barry does not accept money from the lobbyists and special interests and that he is just a downright wonderful guy.

As Barry himself said, just because it is in an email does not make it true. The only truth to them is that Obama talks change and he is full of hope. Newsflash: ALL CANDIDATES TALK ABOUT CHANGE. Additionally, Hope is not proper mission planning. Obama cannot hope that things will be OK or that he can do the job and it happens. Certainly, people’s lives will not be better just because they hope so. Obama is an empty suit. He is long on rhetoric and short on plans and experience.

The MSM is in the tank for this guy so he will get a pretty good ride in the general election. The MSM will ignore the shortcomings of this man and the questionable things he has done just like they did for Bill Clinton. Remember Gennifer Flowers? The media ignored that story and called her a liar. Turns out she was telling the truth (Bill had to admit that). The media continued to ignore or failed to investigate Clinton and they will do the same with Obama. The media will be having Obasams and ignoring his problems or will fail to fully investigate him while they produce hit piece after hit piece on McCain. They turned on Clinton in order to help Obama so imagine what they will do to McCain.

Obama is right that things should have a bit of proof attached before they become an issue. However, Obama has absolutely no right whatsoever to dictate what is a distraction, what is allowed and what is not allowed. Obama is not supposed to dictate the terms, the people are. Therefore, the media has every right to look at everything, to ask anything, and to fully investigate each candidate.

I think we know they will only do that with one candidate and it won’t be Obama. He will tell them their limits and they will obey like the lapdogs they are.
