"October Surprise"?

[sheepshead]

Anyone else hearing about the possibility of a Michelle Obama tape on the pulpit with Rev. Wright slamming "whitey". The rumors making the rounds in certain circles. Of course, the MSM would just brush it off as a non-issue.

[SkinBasket]

Does that mean Obama's "leave my wife alone!" plea was more of a preemptive strike?

[sheepshead]

perhaps--I like that too, she can get up on the stump and tell us all how we're fucked up and her husbands here to save us, but we can't question anything either of them has to say or have done with their lives.

Oh, if it exists, it'll come out, we all know that...

[SkinBasket]

I don't see why it shouldn't come out or that there's anything wrong or "dirty" about it - if it exists. She is auditioning to be one of the most prominent figureheads in the world. How she's chosen to present herself up to this point is not outside the realm of logical consideration.

If McCain's wife had been taped on a podium at a KKK meeting, you wouldn't think it was topical?

[sheepshead]

The problem with the rumor is I would have thought the Clintons had it, in which case it would be out by now I would think. Bill is shrewd however and he could be keeping it in his quiver until the convention. It may be the RNC has it too and waiting until he's confirmed as the nominee.

I'm not saying it isn't topical. But it was initially presented as a rumor and all I'm saying is that should this rumor be true whether the media tries to brush it off or not, it will come out and we will all see it.

Of course it wouldn't come out until AFTER Hillary has been properly disposed of.

Good point - I believe this is also possible. Bill has a massive collection, and may have just come across it.

[The Leaper]

Michelle and Wright slamming a whitey on the pulpit?

Yeah, that sounds like a video that is probably in Bill's collection.

I would say this rumor is laughable. I think Michelle Obama was well aware of her husband's political ambitions a long time ago.

But I'm still hot on the trail of the story of the guy who had sex with Obama twice back in 1998. He claims that Obama has a pink penis, there has been a conspiracy of silence among those who have showered with Obama.

[texaspackerbacker]

As bad as Mrs. Obama is, based on her statements that have already come out, I really doubt this "smoking gun" exists. If it did, why would Hillary not have used it before this?

[sheepshead]

I think it happened, thus it's plausible that it's on tape. Bill might be waiting until right before the convention. Get as much as they can from FL and MI. Then spring this on the public deeming Obama unelectable(which he is already). The get the super delegates on Hills side. Or the RNC could have it, in which case they are waiting until he's clearly the nominee then blow him out of the water.

[Tarlam!]

I sit back in my armchair in Germany and think to myself that the world's most powerful nation will soon be run by Obama, Hillary or McCain and that electors of this great nation are speculating about whose got what dope on whom and when it might be released to influence the masses.

It probably works like this in all democracies, but those countries are pretty weak compared to your nation. Even the UK would be no match.

It doesn't concern me in the slightest mind, you've seemingly been successful with this model for centuries. I am a mere observer.

[MJZiggy]

And yet from your armchair in Germany, you often toss things from a perspective that we are too close in to see 'round here. Campaigning has changed since the advent of TV and not for the better IMO...and someone is grilling barbecued ribs somewhere in the neighborhood..now what was I saying?
