Why Michelle Obama is Like the Iraq War
By Larry Johnson on May 21, 2008 at 12:24 PM in Current Affairs
I must be doing something right because I seem to be pissing off the extremes of the right and left. I am fascinated by the negative reaction on the left–the so-called “progressive” blogosphere–to my report that the GOP has a tape of Michelle Obama having a Stokely Carmichael moment at Jeremiah Wright’s church. When I was speaking out about Valerie Plame–again without sources and relying only on what I knew first hand–these “progressives” loved me. As I wrote about what was really going on in Iraq and attacked the Bush Administration lies, I got lots of love from the left.
And the rightwing? They branded me a communist traitor. I was not to be trusted. Hell, the Wall Street Journal editorial page attacked me by name at least three times and an ultra conservative writer, Ken Timmerman, blames me, along with a few others, as being part of a cabal of CIA officers bent on sabotaging the Bush Administration. So it goes.
With my report on Michelle Obama, it has become ridiculous.
A couple of bloggers at the Orange place (The Daily Something or Other) are spreading the lie that I was the one who started the Barack is a Muslim rumor. While I am flattered that they think I am so powerful, I had nothing to do with that. In fact, I could care less if he is a muslim. Being muslim does not make you a terrorist. If he was a salafist, then that would be a different matter.
I am not sorry that folks are disquieted by my report that Republicans have a videotape of Michelle doing a rant on white people. This is not a work of creative fiction on my part. I have it solid from four separate sources–one of whom is a prominent person who also happens to be an Obama supporter. Two of the people I have spoken with–one a Republican and one a Democrate–have spoken directly to people who have seen the tape.
Some on the right think I am out to “demonize” Karl Rove. Jesus Christ? That’s like accusing me of trying to turn an Eskimo into an Eskimo. Rove is a political junk yard dog. He told Chis “Tingle Thigh” Matthews that Valerie Plame was fair game. I am thoroughly amused that some folks on the left doubt that Michelle Obama would be fair game. Fair or not, she’ll be in play come the fall because she has put herself in the game by her own intemperate words.
The only issue now is whether or not the right wing Republicans who hate John McCain will succeed in getting their hands on the tape before the Democratic Convention. Why? They want to stop Barack because they are certain McCain will trounce Mr. Obama in the fall. They would rather take their chances with Hillary. Sounds convoluted but I have impeccable sources that the Republican billionaire has put out a bounty to get the tape.
From my perspective, I am passing on information that eventually will find its way into the public arena. I am not passing on rumor or supposition. I deal in facts. I am certain that one faction of Republicans who favor John McCain have a tape and plan to use it in the fall to hurt Obama.
Oh, and guess what. There are recordings of Barack Obama when he was overseas. These recordings–I don’t know if they are video or audio–also will create problems for Barack. I anticipate having more information on this next week. If Obamabots want to indulge the fantasy that once that nasty lady, Hillary, goes away then the Illinois Messiah will be able to walk on water and feed the masses without a worry, they are seriously deluded.
I will continue warning. I will continue to speak truth to power. I don’t give a shit if it favors a Republican or a Democrat. My only concern is whether or not something is good for the people of America. If I see a danger I will speak out. And I am not sorry if it makes you uncomfortable. Get used to it.

Amen, brother.
Every time we suggest a potential “problem” related to BO we get tarred and feathered. Racist. Embittered woman. Cry-baby.
Actually, if BO supporters were smart, they would FIGURE OUT A SOLUTION. Find the facts. Deal with the facts. And try and change the future, if possible.
Jeremiah Wright. Seating Florida and Michigan (See Talk Left on that one today). Learning how to “relate” to working class voters. All of these things could have been “dealt with” in some manner/better manner.
I keep asking, if someone told you that you had a medical condition that might improve with treatment but will be fatal if you ignore it…what would you do?
“I keep asking, if someone told you that you had a medical condition that might improve with treatment but will be fatal if you ignore it…what would you do?”
I agree completely with your post, but need to point out that in your last line, quoted above, you describe most smokers. People addicted to nicotine often suffer from major denial about their addiction and/or the harm it causes–and that’s what some folks in the Obama campaign suffer from regarding his problems–denial.
A friend from Illinois who’s a McCain lover commented sarcastically that “if you like Hillary Clinton you’ll LOVE Michelle Obama.” We need more info on this woman.
Your friend makes a good point. Hillary was told she should be baking cookies instead of involving herself in politics. The Republicans are going to love Michelle as first lady. Oops, I’m sorry. It’ s unacceptable to talk/think about this. The Anointed One placed it off limits.
How ironic… Barack is a nicotine addict and lies about that too. ABC’s Jake Tapper busted him reeking of smoke about a month ago, and he ran from him, slammed a door in his face. When Jake asked BO’s campaign about him still smoking, he was told flatly, “he stopped smoking a year ago…” After Tapper reported this incident and was indignant that he was deliberately lied to, he said that he felt that this all played into BO’s character. Well, he got jumped on by the Obamabots for saying that. However, a few days later Tweety asked BO on his Campus tour in PA about his smoking, and he finally copped to it.
I just find it all ironic that the addict himself is in denial, and he lies to cover up his addiction, He is as sick as his secrets.. He also breeds other addicts that are in denial. The entire family unit along with his campaign, surrogates and ENABLERS; i.e., the MSM, are all part of this Dysfunctional system. I can’t help but see the classic Dysfunctional paradigm here. And, as part of the Dysfunctional paradigm — Hillary and her supporters — the Truth-bearers get Scapegoated for being the beacons of truth — who call attention to this diseased Dysfunctional dynamic.
We have suffered too long in this country, because of W’s unrecognized, dry-alcholic, in denial behavior. We do NOT need another sicko in the WH to take W’s place. Our country deserves better. We deserve someone who is WHOLE AND HEALTHY who can assist us to restore our country back to health.

You have earned my respect. Thank you for having the audacity to tell it like it is.
Yep, Larry has the Audacity of Truth.
Got that right!
Amen from me Larry and a big hug. I am going to guess that the Republican Billionaire is Richard Mellon Scaife. When Hillary appeared before his newspaper board which ended up endorsing her to win Pa. Scaife said he was so impressed with her and that ended up liking her. After the article endorsing Hillary Scaife wrote another article about why Obama should never be president. He owes the Clintons big time for what he did to them. I believe he is trying to make amends.
Richard Mellon Scaife — please buy that tape.

Investigators to Release Reports on Obama’s Communist Connections:
Washington, DC- Two veterans of investigations into Communist influence on the U.S. political process will hold a briefing on Capitol Hill to release two new explosive reports on Barack Obama’s ties with extreme anti-American elements, including agents of the Moscow-controlled Communist Party USA. The reports will shed important new light on Barack Obama’s mysterious past.
WHAT: Briefing to release two reports: “Communism in Hawaii and the Obama Connection” by Herbert Romerstein, and “Communism in Chicago and the Obama Connection” by Cliff Kincaid.
The reports are based on direct fact-finding and special access to historical, congressional, and investigatory documents.
WHEN: Thursday, May 22, at 2 p.m.
WHERE: 201 F St., NE, lower level, Washington, D.C. (Basement of Ebenezers Coffee

Yawn. Big baddie communist tewwibly scary. Really, yawn.
Political ideology is a lateral move when faced with one’s survival, something to hold onto in the face of great personal fear.
And I find people like K** and Rove puppet dysfunctionals.
When I’m not laughing at them.
If you rig an election, there will be trouble, it’s naive to think otherwise.
All this about the election, and here, both the republicans, and democrats, are ignoring the wars, and the economy, problems neither male candidate is capable of solving.
Well Martin the Troll,
Here is a news Flash – Obama and his associates ARE Communists as are his Kenyan relatives.
Try googling Black Liberation “Theology”.
Now I realize comprhension is a huge problem for you people so I’ll spoon feed it to you like you need to do with grammar school kids.
Theology – comes from the word Theist which has to do with human relationships to the Divine, or Creator or God. It is the way it is manifested. Examples, Catholics make the sign of the cross when entering a Church. Jews wear a skullcap at a Synogogue. Those are manifestations of how they approach and acknowledge the Divine.
Ideology are the “ideas” on which Political and Economic actions are taken. Totally man made and the Divine nor God had nothing to do with it. Hint – Neo Cons.
Hence Black Liberation “Theology” is a misnomer as it is actually an Ideology with some perversion of religion springled on it to try and cover up the fact – like you would use salt and pepper to cover up some lousy tasting meat.
Now if you are a smart troll you will go look it up – otherwise you will remain in gnorance at your own peril.
I figured someone from the Obama camp called the UN in. They are here to monitor the election and racial issues. Samantha Power or Bill Richardson would be my top picks for suspects.

If Obama did this it was a HUGE mistake.
Holy cow!
We’ve waited for months for investigators and journalists to tie all those close ties together and out him for being un-american.
Tomorrow may be the day. I can hear the obots yelling about McCarthyism again already.
Too bad sometimes it isn’t paranoia sometimes it is the way it is. If walks like a duck and quacks like a duck and looks like a duck – he IS a duck.
also larry, waiting on your news about his overseas visits. he was the presumptive nominee in his own eyes even then and as we know barfbag spends a whole lot of time with his foot firmly planted in his mouth. Everytime another piece of his mysterious past unfolds it is another nail.
It is very inspiring to know that there are Americans, who still care and love our great country, by exposing the “cancerous cells” of Obama, before it becomes fatal. I hope & pray that the media has America in its’heart.
I think of you as my patriots, serving the country by exposing the truth about a presidential candidate who is unknown to us.Obama needs to wait & prove himself to America, if he deserves to serve her.As of now, Obama is NOT QUALIFIED.
To Larry Johnson, please, accept our sincerest gratitude for your LOVE TO THE COUNTRY!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!
I just read the header to your piece, Larry, and I just had to ask (before reading it in its entirety)
is the war going THAT badly?
troll free zone –
Say it ain’t so! Your comment is perfect!
I think so.
They’re selling Obama like Iraq.
Really, everything is great, really.
Clinton Shows She Can Still Win and Obama Shows He Can Still Lose
Hillary Clinton continued to show she can still win big even though the media continues to tell everyone she lost the nomination weeks ago. A 35 point loss once again shows that Obama has a serious problem with the base of the Democratic Party. Any superdelegate that doesn’t understand by now that he will likely lose in November should be stripped of their vote, they simply are ignoring reality. The superdelegates have an obligation to pick the most likely winner. If they do anything other than that they are violating their duty to put the Democratic Party first. It’s the superdelegates that are suppose to rise above the emotions in this situation and put the winner at the top of the ticket
http://www.rayvjr.squarespace.com/blog/2008/5/21/clinton-shows-she-can-still-win-and-obama-shows-he-can-still.html
I disagree with the statement that the country is not ready for an Afro American president. My problem is that Obama is not ready for the job. Having lived his adult life in a narrow-focus enclave, he is out of touch with the country he wants to lead.
I AGREE WITH YOU
I WAS NOT TRYING TO REFLECT ON THAT —APOLOGIES TO ANYONE OFFENDED –I JUST POST THE LINKS OFINTERSTING ARTICLES FROM REALCLEAR POLITICS
BUT HEY — IT WAS MUCH MORE POSITIVE ON HILLARY —-
I believe You are right…
Obama is not ready to hold a such responsible position!!! How naive are Obamas supporters!!!
Awwww! {{{BIG HUGS}}} Larry you ROCK!
I’m with you Man!
Me too, Larry. Speak truth to power, and let the chips fall where they may.
Thanks for all you do, and for your blog.
yes!

Obama Owes His Rise to Lobbyists
http://www.moeursalen.blogspot.com/2008/05/obama-owes-his-rise-to-lobbyists.html
We get by with a little help from our friends. On the right is Antoin Rezko, indicted in Chicago for public corruption.
Obama has not dismissed people who are lobbyists and has no rules vetting lobbyists who are in his camp. Though Obama owes his rise in Illinois politics to financial and other support from lobbyists and PACs, Obama continues to assert his “new” approach to the influence in Washington of special interests.
Wal-mart, British Petroleum, and Lockheed Martin lobbyists provided payments to the Obama political campaigns in the past, according to public documents.
According to Jen Psaki, Obama campaign spokeswoman, Obama decided to announce a change to a “new” approach in the presidential campaign. As things stand, Obama has not yet rooted out lobbyists in his campaign nor made rules which preclude their participation as John McCain has done.
The Boston Globe reports the following:
Obama’s campaign finance records shows that he collected hundreds of thousands of dollars from lobbyists and PACs as a state legislator in Illinois, a US senator, and a presidential aspirant.
In Obama’s eight years in the Illinois Senate, from 1996 to 2004, almost two-thirds of the money he raised for his campaigns — $296,000 of $461,000 — came from PACs, corporate contributions, or unions, according to Illinois Board of Elections records. He tapped financial services firms, real estate developers, healthcare providers, oil companies, and many other corporate interests, the records show.
Obama’s US Senate campaign committee, starting with his successful run in 2004, has collected $128,000 from lobbyists and $1.3 million from PACs, according to the Center for Responsive Politics, a nonprofit organization that tracks money in politics. His $1.3 million from PACs represents 8 percent of what he has raised overall.
Thank god somebody is.
Consultant On CNN: Sometimes It’s “Accurate” To Call A Woman A “*itch”
On CNN a few moments ago, analyst Jeffery Toobin argued that Hillary was right when she said in an interview that coverage of the race has been “sexist,” buttressing his case by pointing to a recent newspaper column suggesting that Hillary is a “white *itch.” Toobin, unsurprisingly, took issue with this, saying that it was “appalling” that this was considered acceptable.
“Some women, by the way, are named that, and it’s accurate,” Castellanos said. He went on to buttress his case by pointing out that Hillary is “abrasive, aggressive, irritating.”
What’s amusing about this is that Castellanos actually argued that it’s sometimes accurate to call a woman a “*itch” as a way of making the claim that Hillary was wrong to argue that there’s sexism in our political coverage. Pretty twisted stuff.
BTW not ONE person even Obama loving woman pointed out how disgusting that was and unacceptable. It is find to degrade females!
Obviously, we haven’t made the strides we think we have as women. It never occurs to these men, that they are having a visceral reaction founded in their sense of masculine entitlement and superiority. Any woman who merely opens her mouth in a confident, self-assured and knowledgeable way would be a bitch to them. And that’s patently ridiculous. Just like when Tweety Tingle Leg asked John Edwards whether Elizabeth was a ball buster. How insulting is that? These guys live in a world where women are not entitled to have an opinion. Instead of getting better, it’s gotten worse. It was never like this when I was coming of age. Men have gotten more insecure. How pathetic!
People wonder why we say Obama’s campaign has been sexist:
What’s sad is younger women are so quick to say they see no sexism in this kind of thing. I recall going through that phase myself.
Right, and its been construed to mean “99 problems but not that ni***r.”
What?
The sad part is, Mimi, women don’t help themselves by thinking it’s OK to be on “Girls Gone Wild” videos or Bratz babies(sick shit, babies in diapers with make-up and ‘bling’. And what’s the percentage of younger female voters? Didn’t the Obama girl forget to vote, or was that a rumour? This is the Paris Hilton generation and let’s face it, perhaps it is better they don’t vote.
they’ve never been told “i would never let my wife work” or “we can’t hire you, you might get pregnant” or “we had to give the promotion to a man, because he has a family to support” or “women can work, until they get married, but they should stick to appropriate jobs like being a nurse or secretary or teacher” or any of the other things we heard.
they don’t believe about the 79 percent pay problem. and they don’t understand that getting by on looks doesn’t work any more after a certain age.
they probably don’t even know what the era was, much less care that it was never adopted.
they think all of that is in the past. so they take it all for granted and ridicule us for bringing it up.
by the time it becomes real to them, it’ll be too late.
and their girls gone wild videos will prevent them from getting many jobs.
i guess it’s like anything else. you try to explain things so the kids can avoid mistakes, but they don’t think you know what you’re talking about, so they don’t listen.
“white bitch” — well that is BOTH racist and sexist.
And these SOBs think we should bow down to snObama.
When these guys attack Senator Clinton they are attacking ALL women.
Hey Larry,
just finished reading your piece. My sentiments exactly.

JERUSALEM – White Christians are “make pretend” believers and conservative Christians emulate the people who killed Jesus, according to articles in a controversial magazine run by Sen. Barack Obama’s longtime pastor that paint traditional Christianity as false and racist.

Now “GOD” is a victim too?
I love you Larry!! You are the best, a true patriot, doing what is best for your country, and I love you for it, I truly do!
People voted for Hitler, people stood by while Hitler stole the election. Imagine – I would love to read the history – imagine the disdain dissenters who distrusted Hitler might have been treated with! And think how highly we would think of those people today.
You are brave, you are doing the right thing, and as Hillary said last night Keep Standing Up For What You Believe In! The truth is a power all its own and it cannot be silenced.
Yeah, just let the Obamapods line up for the loaves and the fishes miracle. They’ll starve to death waiting on that.
Recordings of Barack overseas? Now would that be during the side trip to Pakistan and – what’s the name of that Muslim enclave in India?
If you are referring to Obama’s 1981 trip, he went to Karachi and Jacobabad, Pakistan and Hyderabad, India. He has never spoken publically about the 3- day “hunting expedition” to Jacobabad, where he stayed at the home of the Soomros (international banking family).

Don’t let the bastards get to you. You’re a real American hero. Expose Obama for the filthy politician he truly is. You don’t spend your time up to your knees in Chicago-style politicking without some of that sh*t rubbing off on you. This Black Panther wannabe is a liar and a crook. Good intentions? They don’t put food on your table, sweetie.

Clinton had raw votes of 460K in Kentucky, and 233K in Oregon, winning 36 delegates in KY and 17 in OR. Obama received 210K votes in Kentucky, and 326K in Oregon, gaining 14 delegates in KY and 28 in OR. Totaled out, this means that 693K people voted for Clinton yesterday, while 536K voted for Obama. Clinton won 53 delegates, and Obama took 42.
And Michelle goes to the White House????
oh no, she doesn’t.
The thought of her as first lady is really really what gets to me. The way she talks and her sense of entitlement are so off putting.
I remember how much I disliked Nancy Reagan. I think Michelle is another Nancy. At least she dropped the Jackie O get ups.
Nancy looks like a “classy lady” next to Michelle Obama.
Does anyone have any information on Nobamas ties with a man named Frank Marshall Davis? I think this is another black communist that Nobama has ties with. He briefly mentioned him in his book, by first name only. I would love to see this connection invesitgated further.

You can Google Davis and Obama and pull up some rather interesting things. Davis was Mr. Hope’s “mentor” when he was young. After Davis, he ends up connected to Ayers?
What are the odds that someone “just happens to be” involved with all these questionable people? Honestly. What are the chances that all these connections just happen to be coincidences? People had better wake the hell up before it’s too late.

Farrakahn endorsed him. Must be a reason
Clinton has had to fight through a number of handicaps in this race. She has had to carry more weight, loaded on her back by the news media, Obama’s bullying tactics and the DNC itself, who seem to be more worried about damaging the “brand, and blowing their chances in the fall, worried about exposing the cracks in the Obama kewpie doll, than anything else. So that every time Obama has attacked and Clinton has hit back, she gets hit from all sides
http://www.tominpaine.blogspot.com/2008/05/new-math-for-clinton-and-old-horse-race.html
I cannot imagine Obama standing up to the onslaught Clinton has had to endure, psychologically.
A President has to deal with far far worse, and here, Obama has already alienated the intelligence community, I would venture, just like Cheney, and Bush.
And Rove.
His people are fucking idiots.
Bummer.
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
Yeah, I bring the brownies…
I can’t even imagine him standing up to the onslaught of the General Election.
If there is anyone out there who still believes its only coincidental that Obama seems to have all these pals who hate America I have a bridge I can sell you. Its becoming obvious that Obama may have ties to all these people who hate America and hate white people because he agrees with them. From the comments I read this goes past racism and incompetence to — who in the hell is this guy and what in the hell is his agenda?
Wow. Just, Wow. I have nothing of any substance to add to this discussion, but had to give my props to Larry.
CNN LIVE CLINTON CAMPAIGN IN FLORIDA
now!
Before we begin to discuss yesterday’s results in Oregon and Kentucky, let’s start with a bit of recent information that every voter should know: Obama DID NOT attract 75,000 “fans” to a rally in Portland, Oregon, by the supposed “power of his charisma”. Interestingly enough, his speech was preceded (and followed) by a free concert, given by the band The Decemberists, local legends in their own right. Curiously, the Media failed to mention this important detail when reporting about the event, thus giving the impression that Obama had somehow drawn hundreds of bearded ‘latte drinkers’ on his own, without any other motivation apart from his “impressive popularity”. This may seem to some as inconsequential, but the mere fact that the Press was so willing to give credit where credit WAS NOT due, betrays their rapacious tendency to favor Barack Hussein Obama every time they spin their daily political news.

If teh awesome had shown up at Woodstock, it would have been reported as “100,000 Strong – Obama Supporters Turn Out to Worship their American Idol!”
My guess is the campaign decided to tailgate a city festival.
Typical bitter white sweetie,
Thank you so much for pointing this out- how ludacris that his campaign and the media would again so blatantly lie to the public. Another detraction from another Obama loss, they try to prop him up. But why, why aren’t they also afraid of what this man will do to our country?
And THANK YOU Larry, we need more voices like your..I tell my children to do what is right simply because it is the right thing to do.. if it were easy, everyone would have solid values.
It is typical of the media throughout this entire process. They never report the facts. Wonder if we can ever trust our press again to give us the facts about anything. Doubt it. The truth doesn’t always suit their own political agendas.
OT – anyone know issues of importance to Puerto Ricans? I want to start writing letters to papers there. Thanks!
I would guess you can get info on the issues for PR by visiting the PR blog on the HRC website?
Fortunately for our girl Hillary – most Puerto Ricans have friends or family in NYC! Hillary is already their home girl. And they LOVE Chelsea…well some of the women, like me, love Bill too…but in a different way…heh heh heh
I’ll bet MO went over like a lead balloon down there. Notice how little press she got.
Isn’t that the truth?
Lucky Chelsea.
Also let’s not forget the infinite wisdom of Prima-Dona Brazile-nut in specifying not having to rely on Hispanics in the new obamacan party.
And that is why I stop by and read your website, Larry. You tell the truth, and nothing but the truth! Sorry, Obamabrats. You are barking up the wrong tree! Give ‘em hell, Larry!
I forgot to mention that I appreciate that you allow all views on your website, Larry which is not the case on the DictatorKos site. I found it interesting that while I visited Mydd last night, which was the first time in over a month, I saw comments that were made by kos. It pissed me off because the little former Republican faux Democrat scumbag can spout his tripe wherever, but when it comes to his own site, free speech is not permitted. F&ck off, kos!
Since we don’t know what actually goes on in the voting booth, Marky can still be voting Republican.
Besides, what better way for the Right to portray the Left as rabid dogs, than have one of their own head their blogcentral? Feed the fire for awhile until permanent damage is done, then switch back after “getting some religon”?
Unlike parties, it’s very hard to switch ideologies. Why Neo-Cons spearhead Communist/Marxist/Socialist thought on the Right, despite changing parties.
I think he’s very frightened, people get themselves into things, and then find they’re way.in.over.their.heads.
wooHOO CORINNE BROWN

Corinne Brown? Where did you see that?
She represents a district in Jacksonville, FL., not mine, but I do know her.
Nope, Timmerman is your ardent Neo-Con (who are ardent lovers of Communism/Marxism/Socialism). Frontpage authors aren’t your Pat Buchanans (who is ultra-conservative).

This morning on MSNBC, magician Penn Jillette repeated an admittedly “cheesy” joke that performed really well on a recent tour — that Barack Obama did well in February because it was Black History Month and Hillary Clinton did well in March because it was “White *itch Month.”
yep no problem to degrade females,call them names and question their strengths.
I wish they did polls on sexists, that is a big prob this election and the keep bringing up race and I think gender is also a issue.
Yep! Over and over the sexism rages (most recently, that talking head on CNN’s panel claiming it’s okay to call Hillary a “bitch”), and yet the pundits and the the Democratic establishment (Obama’s benefactors), repeatedly deny there is sexism. Unbelievable and maddening at the same time. I really would love to slap their smug faces, which says a lot since I’ve never hit anyone or anything.
Regarding Penn, he’s an ass and I regret the fact I used to admire him and even had a date with him. Ugh. This historic primary has certainly been instructive by revealing which “celebrities” and politicians are muddle-headed, dimwitted sexists. Even George Clooney is tainted since his “endorsement” (who cares) of Obama.
You guys need to stop watching MSNBC and NBC and CNN. I have not watched since March and I am much happier.
I desperately want to believe this. I even ran your initial report word for word past my Dem party contacts who tell me yes, they first heard about the video from Sean Hannity and no, they couldn’t confirm this video’s existence.
The reason I didn’t totally dismiss it as an unfounded rumor is the unnamed ultraconservative Republican billionaire. That could only be Sheldon Adelson; no one else fits that description and he once tried to buy an anti-Arab propaganda movie and have it distributed. The story appeared on Laura Rozen’s War and Piece as part of a larger story on Adelson.
Larry, you say your story is confirmed by four separate sources none of whom has actually seen this video. And you say that only two spoke directly to people who have seen the tape.
So basically, your story is based on third-hand, perhaps even fourth-hand, information. If you were still with the CIA would this level of corroboration be considered acceptable?
I don’t care how much you trust and believe your sources; as the adage goes, “if your mother says she loves you check it out.” I’m going to withhold further judgment until I see something more solid than someone who talked to someone who talked to someone who saw the tape.
Richard Mellon Scaife. You forgot him. He’s a Billionaire who pays big bucks to make things happen in politics…just ask the Clintons.
Incorrect. Larry reported that they have seen it, and it was “stunning,” I believe was the exact reaction.
Not “they,” but I believe at least 2.
Again, Neo-Cons are NOT “ultra-conservative”. Neo-Cons are like your Neo-Liberals — Far-Left.
Plus, you’ll be hard pressed to find Jews as Traditional or Paleo-conservatives (since they claim them to be “anti-semites”).
It’s Neo-Con/Traditional/Paleo on the Left-to-Right scale of conservatism (and Pat Buchanan isn’t a Paleo, despite how folks claim so – even he wouldn’t want the country to revert to the society and culture before 1950, as Paleos prefer).
Rezkowatch has a wonderful article form Pundita on this very subject, today.
Worth a read.
While Larry’s proof is hearsay at this moment, I think you are being overly dismissive. That fact is that Larry has received the same information from four different and independent sources. At least one of those sources is a democrat. So we must either assume that there is this great plot afoot to spread lies about Obama, and these sources are either in on it or being used as part of it. Or we assume that there is in fact a tape starring Michelle Obama. The latter seems to be a simpler answer to me.
and of those 4, Mr Johnson said two do not know each other….
The RNC / Rove starting in early 2006, were doing ‘OP research’. Since Rebuplicans are just as well connected to Chicago combine, it would not be to difficult to keep tabs on the BO posse
Look, just being aware of what has “bubbled up” regarding Obama’s past behavior and habits is extremely troubling…and knowing who is in control of the comms and that the RNC oppo is 24/7 x 365, it’s like “Backdraft”.
Still, I understand the “seeing is believing” position. My concern would be in this case, is it will collect a bunch of folks along the way. Not only bring in to accute focus the complete lack of judgement on BO’s part, but the DNC igits that brought ‘em and the party as a whole. This will reflect very poorly on the Dems if it has anything to do with race relations or national security.
Abe said you can’t please all the time…
Mr. Johnson is getting “feedback” from neoconlibs, and at very least, BO has been warned that his “final frontier” is only a matter of time. I keep hear donna B and crowd repeating the “embarressment of riches” when the field was crowded and now? just embarresment.
The way Senator Clinton gets it done is to stay on message and let BO punk his own ratings or have McPeek do it for him. Hope is a dangerous thing when it can no longer fend of reality. We have seen what the widget calls “judgement” it can only do him harm if exposed to the light of day.
RICO.
troll at “work”
Living in the same town with and interfacing with, occasionally, Gondoleer Numero Uno, take my word: Scaife is the heart and soul of Reason compared to Adelson.
In fact, I’d make this a Proposition Bet, but they wouldn’t likely take it at The Venetian or Palazzo sports books…
ah blue state again.
lol.
Me thinks Oblowme doth protest too much!
Does he really think that limp wristed wah! will pre-empt the rage against whitey video?!!
BTW: Michelle is no Fala or Checkers either. They were sweet loyal Americans. But mark my words – the next thing he’ll pull out of his ass is a dog. Can you say DISTRACTION for his zombies and zeros?
My money would be on a GERBIL, not a dog.
Sure would go a long way toward healing the bad feelings engendered by eschewing appearances with Newsom, eh?
When I was speaking out about Valerie Plame–again without sources and relying only on what I knew first hand–these “progressives” loved me. As I wrote about what was really going on in Iraq and attacked the Bush Administration lies, I got lots of love from the left.
This is exactly what I’ve been saying about the so-called progressives who have chosen to follow “The One”. I’ve been reading many of the Obamabot blogs, the bigger blogs like Huffpost and the small ones, too. The pattern of suddenly hating what they all professed to love just months ago started to emerge as soon as it was a two person race. My mouth just dropped when I read a small blog that posted about how disgusted she was with Bill Clinton’s behavior with Monica Lewinski. They also bring up Whitewater, and Vince Foster when they talk about Hillary.
Then when I wrote a post on my blog and linked to a post that former Ambassador Joe Wilson wrote in support of Hillary and hitting Obama on his dangerous foreign policy responses at a debate, those bloggers who did nothing but heap adoration and love on Joe Wilson in the past, suddenly all hated him and then used the GOP talking points against Joe. One of those bloggers even said that Valerie wasn’t really working for the CIA, she was nothing but a secretary. This is coming from people who call themselves Democratic Progressives!
I hope that this info gets out fast, at the very least, the SD’s need to see that there is proof positive that this is what they will be up against if Obama is the nominee. If they think Independents or Republicans who don’t like McCain will vote for a guy who is anti-American, they’re nuts. The loss of Hillary supporters (even if it is as low as 5% who won’t vote Obama) and the Independents….we will be saying “President McCain” before you know it.
I have reason to believe that the loss of Clinton supporters will be much more than 5%. I, for one, will encourage it wholeheartedly.
The CIA is in it for country, be it agents Left or Right of the political spectrum. These Far-Leftists are more into themselves, and promoting what they claim they’re not — fifth columnists working to undermine the country for it’s own ideology straight from Marx, Lenin or even Mao.
The fact is “progressives” are acting like a bunch of authoritarians. Its my guess that theyve always been this way and just kept it undercover.
You either agree with or face their wrath. There is no dialog with them.
BTW Rezkowatch has some great articles related to this, a tie in of sorts – it has to do with Ayer’s connection to the education establishment and his ideological influence therein.
It explains why so many college kids buy into Obamaism.
It’s so interesting to see the groupthink that has emerged from these so-called “progressive” blogs (what the hell does that mean, really?)–their brand of progressiveness-cum-wannabe radicalism is more akin to a state of worship, being and denial that Orwell rather famously pilloried way back when. What’s also curious is that both that Kos kid and Arianna were rabid republicans not so long ago. Well, one thing seems certain, there level of influence is sure to wane.
Progressives, traveling in circles.
There is a joke in there, somewhere…
Fear is the drug of choice when confronted with the unknown.
Any close encounter of the BO kind is the joke.

“Lay off my wife” – Obama’s Inadequacy on Display
By Guest Blogger Michael Begala
“The GOP, should I be the nominee, I think can say whatever they want to say about me, my track record. If they think that they’re going to try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful…Whoever is in charge of the Tennessee GOP needs to think long and hard about the kind of campaign that they want to run, and I think that’s true for everybody, Democrat or Republican.”
Barack Obama
Obama’s ill-advised and empty threat actually displays several of his numerous inadequacies.
SEXISM. The first and most obvious. From ‘Annie Oakley’ to ‘the claws come out’ to ’sweetie’, Obama has demonstrated he not only has sexist attitudes, but mouths them with no hesitation or understanding of the implication of his words. The demand that others “lay off my wife” has overtones of ownership as well as implying his very public and outspoken wife is incapable of handling criticism or defending herself. Can you imagine the howls if Hillary Clinton, in response to criticism of Bill Clinton, had demanded “lay off my husband.”?
HYPOCRISY. Obama demands his wife be left alone while personally criticizing Bill Clinton. “He continues to make statements that are not supported by the facts — whether it’s about my record of opposition to the war in Iraq or our approach to organizing in Las Vegas.
“This has become a habit, and one of the things that we’re going to have to do is to directly confront Bill Clinton when he’s making statements that are not factually accurate,”
In Obama’s world, calling a rival candidate’s spouse a habitual liar is acceptable, but criticism of his spouse for troubling remarks is out of bounds.
ELITISM. How is it that Michelle Obama became above criticism? What right does she have to be outspoken and public and expect no backlash for what she says, regardless of how inane it may be?
NAIVETY. Did Obama actually believe he could seek the presidency with his wife making open gaffes, and hear no criticism? This shows a breathtaking lack of realism.
INEXPERIENCE. Obama has just over three years on the national stage as a US senator, and much of those have been spent running for president. A more seasoned individual would certainly understand this aspect of public life.
THIN SKINNED. Obama has a tendency to overreact to criticism, and this is no exception. Should he wrap up the nomination as expected, there is a lot of tough rhetoric and campaigning ahead. He would do well to adjust to it.
All of the above indicates how Obama’s shortcomings are easily exposed. He needs to do some maturing as a candidate and a person if he expects to successfully carry the Democratic banner this fall.
http://www.liberalrapture.com/2008/05/lay-off-my-wife-obamas-inadequacy-on.html
Spot on!
Imagine if Bill Clinton had expressed a desire to ’scratch Michelle Obama’s eyes out” as she has said of him.
Hillary keeps saying to “wait until October” do you suppose she knows about this?
Imagine this woman in the White House? Oh My God She has no class
Larry, I’ve recently become a regular reader of your blog and want to tell you how much I love it. As a Hillary supporter, I think you kick serious ass.
Larry, I’m counting on you to keep telling the truth. It’s a rare commodity these days. And the so-called progressives are snot-nosed little bastards; look in the dictionary under “HUBRIS” and they’ll be there waving at you.
Man, its nice to “know” someone that has a strong character. Well said.
SEXISM. The first and most obvious. From ‘Annie Oakley’ to ‘the claws come out’ to ’sweetie’, Obama has demonstrated he not only has sexist attitudes, but mouths them with no hesitation or understanding of the implication of his words. The demand that others “lay off my wife” has overtones of ownership as well as implying his very public and outspoken wife is incapable of handling criticism or defending herself. Can you imagine the howls if Hillary Clinton, in response to criticism of Bill Clinton, had demanded “lay off my husband.”?
Larry you make a whole lot of horse sense to me.
Keep up pissing them off, it is working!
Frank Marshall Davis, who Obama mentions only as “Frank” in his book, was a friend of his grandfathers when the lived in Hawaii. There are several good bios on line if you do a search that outlines not only his poltical stances and his activtism but his role as editor of the Associated Negro Press. He was a columinist as well as a acknowledged poet. He was origninally from Chicago and even tho a mentor during Obama’s childhood must have played some role, consciously or subconsciously, in Obama’s decision to head to Chicago and join up with the more radical elements found there.
http://www2.hawaii.edu/~takara/frank_marshall_davis.htm is one particularly educational site for information on “Frank” who Obama often sought counsel with especially after his grandmother criticized a black man whom she felt threatened by while waiting for a bus – part of that story may be familiar to you since it differed from that reported in his book and distorted in The Greatest Speech EVAR given in Philly … Have your pick! as to which was the truth … or like his “characters” it was a convenient composite in the book.
HYPOCRISY. Obama demands his wife be left alone while personally criticizing Bill Clinton. “He continues to make statements that are not supported by the facts — whether it’s about my record of opposition to the war in Iraq or our approach to organizing in Las Vegas.
“This has become a habit, and one of the things that we’re going to have to do is to directly confront Bill Clinton when he’s making statements that are not factually accurate,”
In Obama’s world, calling a rival candidate’s spouse a habitual liar is acceptable, but criticism of his spouse for troubling remarks is out of bounds.
He can say what he wants, of course, but the REpublican answer is now down pat.
“I’m very sorry if I offended Sen. Obama and I hope he forgives me.” As they go onto the next attack point.
It’s funny, actually, to watch. I hadn’t realized that REpublicans could sound so sincere while delivering completely disingenuous apologies.
Obama is already getting a taste of his own medicine.
ELITISM. How is it that Michelle Obama became above criticism? What right does she have to be outspoken and public and expect no backlash for what she says, regardless of how inane it may be?
NAIVETY. Did Obama actually believe he could seek the presidency with his wife making open gaffes, and hear no criticism? This shows a breathtaking lack of realism.
guess he forgot how his pal kerry’s wife was treated?
and even she’s not as bad as michelle.
INEXPERIENCE. Obama has just over three years on the national stage as a US senator, and much of those have been spent running for president. A more seasoned individual would certainly understand this aspect of public life.
THIN SKINNED. Obama has a tendency to overreact to criticism, and this is no exception. Should he wrap up the nomination as expected, there is a lot of tough rhetoric and campaigning ahead. He would do well to adjust to it.
Well said Larry. As always I love to read your work. Truly, without you we would have a hard time hearing the real truth which is soooo absent on the televisions, newspapers and magazines. I intend to send another donation soon. I don’t want there ever to be reason that NO QUARTER is not here for me and rest of us who need to hear the truth. Hillary is our next president. Obama is trash.
Keep stirring the pot, Larry. The notion that we must put the country at risk with an inexperienced man who is already scaring the living daylights out of people with his own nonsensical flip-flopping about Iran is patently ridiculous.
And this has nothing to do with the color of his skin.
It’s irresponsible to put this candidate forth. He’s entirely too naive for the job, and whomever his advisors are in the area of national security have completely lost me as to what the heck they think they are doing.
Lieberman has a blistering piece out on the dangers of Obamathink. It will piss off the Obama fans mightily, since it’s very cogent.
Larry, in my mind, you are a hero, though I would recommend you invest in a bullet-proof vest. I’m convinced that Obama and “friends” are VERY dangerous people, and you are very brave to take them on. My only hope is that these videos/tapes are released BEFORE May 31st. Hillary is speaking now in Florida and mentioned the improprieties and corruption that is taking place at all of the polling places. These Obama people are to determined to win at any and all costs, and they are not averse to shady tactics and intimidation, so, above all, BE CAREFUL. We need you to continue the good work you are doing!!!
Really? I could recommend for you any story by the Brothers Grimm. They made up stories too. Instead of this “analyst” though, they bound their stories up and sold them as fairy tales. There is no tape. No-one (others than those who really WANT to believe) takes this convoluted and tortured explanation as to why the tape isn’t being immediately released seriously. We live in a world of a fast buck and instantaneous gratification: there’s no reason this tape, if it existed, would not have been released around the time of the second Rev Wright episode. Aren’t you aware that Larry is simply doing some research into how easy it is to hook people with BS?
Even if the tape never hits the light of day, I would believe that she has said this type of stuff. Since most of the people in her life, as well as herself, have said such things.
There are several reasons to hold this tape for later. If you can’t understand the strategic value of an October Surprise, then you don’t know your history.
I find your last statement the most interesting, since I’ve seen it here in several forms. That somehow a stranger knows that it is Larry’s assignment to try and sway voters. How ridiculous! Who tipped you off to his psy-op? LOL. My Dad is military intelligence and I never knew what he was doing, but a stranger knows what Larry and his secret intentions are. Uh…yeah..ok…lol
Anyway, like most here, I came to my own conclusions about Obama long before I found this website. However, I will let you in on a well known secret. I know for a fact several high profile court cases had paid people on the websites gathering information from posters because it was a free think tank.
The amateur sleuth posters helped to debate arguments and evidence long before the cases hit the courtrooms among other contributions. We were proud of the effort we helped to provide prosecutors. So, I bet that even if Larry was compiling information, as you assume, most here would be just as proud to help him.
None of us want Obama as President…so the results would still be the same. Psy-op or not.
Try another scare tactic…that one and all the other versions of it….have no teeth here.
Not really a scare tactic. If GOPpers want to win in November, they’d want Hillary as the candidate. Numerous polls show that she galvanises the GOP like no other human who has ever walked this earth. I know not a single republican who has a nice thing to say about her and they whet their collective lips at the thought of running against her. Whatever *you* may think about Obama, he has assembled a formidable coalition and his volunteer and voter registration programmes are HUGELY oversubscribed. Obama will be responsible for adding millions of voters to the electoral roll come november and GOP the horse they’ve picked, a forgetful old man who can’t appeal to the young, hasn’t a hope. In the face of this, any sensible GOP would want to run against Clinton. Young people can’t stomach her and it’ll just be old and uneducated who vote for her. This really makes no sense. So I conclude that this tape is just make-belief.
“…it’ll just be old and uneducated who vote for her.”
Dang!
Is Obama going to show the same lack of judgment appointing his cabinet as he has choosing his Obamabloggers?
You morons are something else. Let’s be clear here,it’s Hillary or John McCain. If Obama is nominated my only question is, will he top McGovern’s record breaking loss?? Will we invent a new word, “baracked”? I like it better then “gored.”
Bullshit, Bill and Hillary are the only democrats to beat the right wing machine. That’s why some repug asked McCain “How do we beat the bitch?” They can’t, so they get a loser nominated instead. Operation Chaos ring a bell? One they can take down. And assholes like you fell for it, hook, line and hopey/changey. Have fun in November.
That Hillary theory might have worked before Obama the spineless insulted everyone who doesn’t drink the kool-aid.
Now Obama is the candidate that the Reps can’t wait to run against. They don’t have to invent subjects for faux outrage, Obama provides quotes quite consistantly.
Nevermind the fact, that Obama has actual terrorists in his circle, when the ‘War on Terror’ is the political platform that has won the Rep elections.
If you don’t know a single Republican that has a nice thing to say about her. One you don’t know enough Republicans and two, why does Obama rate their votes this year? Is it the easily fooled are again easily fooled, but now by a Dem?
And I bet all those new voters will go back to being non-voters the minute Obama loses. They don’t even have the intestinal fortitude to watch a tame race with Hillary and Obama. Bring in the McCain and the 527s and those new voters will be gone in two years. Not understanding that they have to stay in the process, and vote during boring regular elections too.
So, I’ve seen new voters register and placed no hopes on them staying. As a result, I have never been disappointed when they failed to show up at the polls, time and again.
However, when polls show that large percentages of Hillary supporters won’t support Obama. It makes his campaign strategy of insulting all things Clinton, while giving props to Reagan and GHWB in his stump speeches, rather stupid. Second only to comparing McCain and Clinton as the same. He has made the case to vote against him…LOL!
Made up or not that tape is least of Obama’s worries. Michelle has already provided enough tape to work with.
Barack Obama: Gaffe machine

Barack Obama: Gaffe machine
All it takes is one gaffe to taint a Republican for life. The political establishment never let Dan Quayle live down his fateful misspelling of “potatoe.” The New York Times distorted and misreported the first President Bush’s questions about new scanner technology at a grocers’ convention to brand him permanently as out of touch.
But what about Barack Obama? The guy’s a perpetual gaffe machine. Let us count the ways, large and small, that his tongue has betrayed him throughout the campaign:
* Last May, he claimed that Kansas tornadoes killed a whopping 10,000 people: “In case you missed it, this week, there was a tragedy in Kansas. Ten thousand people died — an entire town destroyed.” The actual death toll: 12.
*Earlier this month in Oregon, he redrew the map of the United States: “Over the last 15 months, we’ve traveled to every corner of the United States. I’ve now been in 57 states? I think one left to go.”
*Last week, in front of a roaring Sioux Falls, South Dakota audience, Obama exulted: “Thank you Sioux City…I said it wrong. I’ve been in Iowa for too long. I’m sorry.”
http://www.michellemalkin.com/2008/05/21/barack-obama-gaffe-machine/
Loved the article. It is a breath of fresh air to read something not drooling all over Obama. Have you also ” Heard of, or have been told about”, Larry Sinclair’s story that he and Obama had a sexual relationship and mutual drug use in 1999?
Perhaps. His supporting evidence is slow to come. Always some reason not to disclose it.
Oblowme and his hateful wife are friggin attorneys. She’s not some librarian like Laura Bush. Hillary Clinton caught non-stop shit.
Screw Mememeemehateful Oblowme!
If she didn’t want to be attacked she should have kept her hateful mouth shut.
Or at least she could have said something that wasn’t anti-American.
We’ll all just ignore all of Oblowme’s associates and family and the crazy shit he says and does.
It’s not like he’s running for President during a war or anything!
How crazed is he?
Granted the dems are being run by kiddies and kooks, but good God this beats all!
We’ve seen him in a turban, visiting his Sharia law loving radical Muslim family, announcing his candidacy in terrorists Ayers’ and Dohrns’ living room, and yet he still refuses to even show the stamps in his passport.
I hope that he and his hate-filled wife get full body cavity searches at all security check-ins.
Obama: No, We Can’t
http://www.jayreding.com/archives/2008/05/21/obama-no-we-cant/
As Obama claims the Democratic nomination (despite Hillary Clinton—like Al Gore —having won the popular vote), he just continues to make rookie mistakes. Mitch Berg notes another example of Obama saying something sure to hurt him in the general election. Obama made the following statement in regard to global warming:
“We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times … and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK,” Obama said.
“That’s not leadership. That’s not going to happen,” he added.
“Yes we can!” has now morphed into “that’s not going to happen.” So much for Obama’s positive message of “hope.” Apparently we can hope that Obama is merciful in dictating what we should drive, eat, and what temperature we can set our thermostats to.
right on Larry YOU KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.. I for one only want the truth and can deal with that I sure can’t deal with the MSM not reporting the news or anything bad on poor Barack…So keep up the good reporting and we all can deal with the truth Larry..
concerned woman vet and american citizen..

Obama’s Got Himself a Strategery. Out-Gaffe Bush
» by Bill Dupray in: Barack Obama, Bush, Democrats, Election, History, Humor, International, Media
Barack Obama must be trying to dumb himself down a little so the bitter clingers can better understand his Harvard vocabulary. President Bush has had some good success with this technique and the press has constantly misunderestimated the political benefit of speaking this way to the little people.
Michelle Malkin has a few good examples of Obama’s plan in action.
He has trouble with numbers.
Last May, he claimed that Kansas tornadoes killed a whopping 10,000 people: “In case you missed it, this week, there was a tragedy in Kansas. Ten thousand people died — an entire town destroyed.” The actual death toll: 12.
Trouble with maps.
Explaining last week why he was trailing Hillary Clinton in Kentucky, Obama again botched basic geography: “Sen. Clinton, I think, is much better known, coming from a nearby state of Arkansas. So it’s not surprising that she would have an advantage in some of those states in the middle.” On what map is Arkansas closer to Kentucky than Illinois?
Last week, in front of a roaring Sioux Falls, South Dakota audience, Obama exulted: “Thank you Sioux City…I said it wrong. I’ve been in Iowa for too long. I’m sorry.”
Trouble with history.
Last March, on the anniversary of the Bloody Sunday march in Selma, Alabama, he claimed his parents united as a direct result of the civil rights movement:
“There was something stirring across the country because of what happened in Selma, Alabama, because some folks are willing to march across a bridge. So they got together and Barack Obama Jr. was born.”
Obama was born in 1961. The Selma march took place in 1965.
Then, he hits the trifecta: Trouble with numbers, maps, and history.
http://www.patriotroom.com/?p=369
eight years of unchecked anthema for Bush at Arianna’s place has turned them into a mob. They don’t trust anyone who doesn’t sound EXACTLY like them. I learned everything I know about disrespecting Democrats from other Democrats at the Huffington Post. Karma.
I go back to the 60’s with the liberal Democrats. Their perception, sometimes earned, is that they are on the cutting edge of ideas. This becomes a problem when the True Believers amongst them get caught up in the moment and are filled with Yeat’s passionate intensity.
When the rest and best of us lack all conviction, the liberals run amok and things get very, very factious.
It’s always been this way, like the tide.
Yep. They’ll get all involved in arguing whether Wall Street speculators should be hanged or just taken out and shot; then some termagent in Birkenstocks will start a side argument that everyone SHE went to college with should be kept alive and in a museum, and that female crooks on The Street are just acting out due to hundreds of years of Repression and being treated as chattel.
Meantime, some cheeseball GOP operative operative comes up a picture of two geniuses on a Dem campaign committee sodomizing a goat under the bleachers at the Yale-Harvard game, and we wind up with shit-for-brains governance. Like Nixon, Reagan and those noxious Bushes.

“Why does Vito Corleone only have ONE Fredo, but I have FOUR???” – George Hideous Wanker Bush
Michelle Obama: Blacks Who Assimilate Into “White Culture” Are Uncle Toms
Michelle Obama wrote her Senior Thesis at Princeton, on the issue of whether black Princeton alumni changed their views on black/white relations as a result of their Ivy League education. The Politico has the full document here.
Her views on race are frankly, offensive and racist. Her worldview on the topic is entirely “Us versus Them.” She sees two cultures, with the Whites making the Blacks (she uses caps for the races) feel like outsiders. Note that even the “tolerant” liberals on an elite college campus are racists too. Well, we know when the liberals are intolerant, imagine what it must be like to have conservatives around. All emphasis mine.
I have found that at Princeton no matter how liberal and open-minded some of my White professors and classmates try to be toward me, I sometimes feel like a visitor on campus; as if I really don’t belong. Regardless of the circumstances underwhich [sic] I interact with Whites at Princeton, it often seems as if, to them, I will always be Black first and a student second.
And because Whites are irreparably racist, she decides to forgo assimilation into White culture and chooses to focus only on Blacks.
These experiences have made it apparent to me that the path I have chosen to follow by attending Princeton will likely lead to the further integration and/or assimilation into a White cultural and social structure that will only allow me to remain on the periphery of society; never becoming a full participant. This realization has presently, made my goals to actively utilize my resources to benefit the Black community more desirable.
http://www.patriotroom.com/?p=364
Uncle Tom says: Only YOU Can Prevent Ghetto Fires!
Do we really need more Proof that Mrs. Obama is a racist? The video would be icing on her racist cake.
However, she is also sexist.
While she was dancing around screaming — look at me — give me special treatment — because I am black . . . . she skips over the very important detail.
Princeton was not co-ed until 1974 — and the school had only recently gotten used to having female students. Black MALES were allowed to attend Princeton.
How has she used her affirmative action passes? Why .. making herself very rich. Nowhere can I see that she has “helped” her black brothers and sisters.
What she’s done is become the color of MONEY green. And when one has the money green color — skin color doesn’t mean a damn thing.
I wouldn’t call her a bitch — because I AM A BITCH. What she is — there are no words yet to classify her. So she is Mrs. Obama — which is the greatest insult I can give another woman.
It’s ironic that so many women wear the term, “bitch,” with pride. My daughter’s Squadron Nickname/unofficial callsign is, “ThunderBitch,” because she is loud, assertive, aggressive and, well, mean as a snake if provoked or trod upon. Her mother, like Canada Dry ginger ale, was Not Too Sweet, so I suppose the mango doesn’t fall far from the tree.
Yes. I learned about you from my years on DU. You were our HERO over there because of your defense of Valerie Plame and Joe Wilson and your speaking out against the Bush regime. You really were our hero. That’s how I found your blog and I am so glad I did too. DU is unbearable these days. I haven’t been there for months and will never go back unless Hillary is the nominee. I will go back to throw her nomination in their faces.:) The day they turned on Joe Wilson just because he supports Hillary, was the last straw for me. I want nothing to do with those people. I put up with their adoration for Ahmedinejad, Hamas, Hezbollah, Chavez and their hatred of Israel, but when they turned on Valerie, Joe and you, I couldn’t believe it. I had to draw a line somewhere. Sheesh.
I knew you wouldn’t be intimidated by the Obamarhoids. I’m so glad you are speaking out against their crap.
I swear my world has turned upside down. I have always considered myself a far lefty…..as far left as you can go, until this Primary! I find myself agreeing with Karl ROVE???*&^% My arch enemy? I banned Fox News from my TeeVee for 7+ YEARS. It was not allowed to EVER be on in my home and now it’s the ONLY news network I can watch??? I LOVED Ted Kennedy, Chris Dodd, John Edwards, Claire McCaskill, MSNBC, and Keith Olbermann and so many other BO supporters and now I find myself LOATHING them all? Well, I don’t really loathe Ted Kennedy, but I’m still pissed as hell at him (I do wish him all the best in his recovery though). I’ve had to remove all of my really cool bumper stickers because they didn’t speak for me anymore! WHO THE HELL AM I NOW? I don’t know!:( The Obamarhoids have turned my world upside down…literally. I DO LOATH them. With a passion.
Fight them with everything you have. The people in this country must know who they are voting for. Obviously, the MSM has no plans to get the truth out, so it looks like it’s up to you and others like you to see that BO and his Not-So-Charming-Wife are exposed.
Re. Comment by Its Not Me Couldn’t be better! That is how I feel.Can’t believe I watch Fox and am trying to figure out how to block MSNBC from my channel selector. I feel let down, screwed over and totally abandoned by my party for a phony, fraudulent inexperienced novice while some one who may be our next FDR is scrambling to save this country and she is being cast aside. I will not vote for Obama and I hope Sen Clinton does not accept his offer of VP ……………but no, no she will WIN.
I know exactly how you feel, Its Not Me. The same thing has happened to me. My entire political self-concept has been turned on its head. As a freshman in high school I volunteered on JFK’s campaign. In college it was RFK. I have been a progressive in a family of many generations of progressive liberal Democrats. I have voted for every Democratic presidential nominee. But in good conscience I cannot and will not vote for someone with so little expereince and such a thin resume, especially when you add in all of his negatives. I feel adrift in a small raft in the middle of the ocean. My entire political self-concept falling around my feet in tattered shreds. It is a very disconcerting feeling.
But like so many on this thread have already said, THANK YOU to Larry (and his entire team) for telling truth to power and for giving me a place where I can come and feel welcome and learn and grow as I try to build my new political self-concept.
You know, I started out neutral in this Clinton/Obama fight because, at the time, I really thought either candidate would be better than any republican. Then NH and SC happened. The Obama camp actually called Bill Clinton a RACIST? Jesse Jackson Jr. actually insinuated that Hillary is a RACIST? I couldn’t believe they would EVER do something like that to the Clintons, of all people! That was IT for me. Then the Obamarhoids just grew more hateful, more divisive, and more RUDE as the days went by. I have never, in all my years of being involved in politics, witnessed such vile behavior by another candidate’s supporters. Then came Racist Rev. Wright and that was all she wrote! I was crushed to find out how much I was hated by black people because I don’t hate THEM. I’ve never done anything to any AA in my life that I should be ashamed of. Racism is NOT ALLOWED in our home or in our personal space. Period. I was truly disheartened to know that AAs hate me for no reason.
I can PROUDLY say that I have never voted for a republican and I’ve been a registered Democrat since 1973, but I sure as hell am NOT voting for Obama. Not after what he and his supporters have done to the Clintons. His questionable background and his shady friends make him a non-starter for me. Not to mention his obvious inexperience. I will write in Hillary’s name…if the election isn’t close, which it won’t be because I’m in Illinois.:(
After this election, I’m leaving the Democratic Party. I’m finished.
I did not start our neutral. I supported Edwards. But Edwards dropped out just before Super Tuesday and I had to vote for someone. It did not take me 10 minutes to figure out that Hillary was the stronger candidate and the one that could beat McCain. So that is who I voted for.
But I becasme a staunch supporter when I saw how Obama and the media were ganging up on her. I did not like that one bit. And I knew what it was – sexism.
But like you I could not believe that Obama was calling the Clinton’s racist over nothing. Nothing I tell you. To say Hillary was racist when she said the LBJ got the Civil Rights bill passed was hogwash. I felt like I was in an alternate universe. And I never thought it would get traction or play in the media. But it did. It went down hill from there. No longer alternative universe, we were now in Rod Sterling’s Twight Zone. Crazy. My mind still sometimes cannot wrap itself around what is happeneing.
And the MSM is so pro-Obama I can not believe it. I started sensing that after New Hampshire. And I sensed it was largely sexist and that has proved true witheachh passing day.
I have had to give up MSNBC, KO, NBC, Air America, Bill Moyers, even Daily Show and Colbert. I watch no news except BBC. My whole life has changed because of this one divisive man who calls himself a uniter.
It is surreal.
My thoughts exactly as far as the party goes. I have never been to that site you are speaking of and have never supported obami but I am suffering now from the loss of my party. It feels weird and I too would never watch fox news but I as of last night am not watching even cnn.
God, I cannot wait til November this is like a slow death. I say all the way to the convention and mop the floor with Obami.
I will never get in line behind him NEVER.
Why read this blog? To butcher a quote, “Captain, there be truth here!”
A huge fraction of Americans have bought into the Obama candidacy because of his polished and effective rhetoric. But Obama does not offer the changes I have been waiting for, or the ones the public needs. A great speaker does not necessarily have the courage or intent to fight for deep political reforms.
Our nation’s Founders did not create the United States of America just with smiles and slick rhetoric; they were bold, risk-taking revolutionaries fighting tyranny. Obama has not defined our domestic tyranny and told us how he will try to abolish it. Obama is no dissident or revolutionary. The change he mostly seeks is moving from senator to president. Not what I have been waiting for.
There is no evidence in Obama’s brief political career that he is a champion for deep political reforms to transfer power from the plutocrats to the people. To the contrary, the more you learn about Obama’s history the more he appears as just another super-ambitious politician making friends, using people and cutting deals to get ahead.
To begin with, I have been waiting for a potential president that speaks out against the over-powerful two-party system that sucks up money from all countless corporate and other special interests. I have never heard a word from Obama to indicate he understands the many harmful effects of the two-party plutocracy and the need to open up our political system to a much wider spectrum of beliefs and strategies. Instead, Obama cleverly talks about bipartisanship just as many other Democrats and Republicans have, because that maintains the two-party status quo.
If Obama believed in opening up the political system he would, for example, advocate opening up televised presidential debates to third party candidates and removing the many obstacles the two parties have built to limit ballot access to third party and independent candidates. He would also openly call for replacing the Electoral College with the popular vote for president.
If Obama truly wanted to get rid of big, corrupting money from corporate and other special interests, then he should be advocating a constitutional amendment that would remove all private money from political campaigns and change the US system to totally publicly financed campaigns. Only a constitutional amendment can accomplish this. Campaign financing reforms by Congress are a distraction and next to useless.

This is what losers, who suck on sour grapes, sound like to winners, “Blah, blah, piss, moan, blah, secret tape, blah, sources, blah…”.
And btw, Larry, you deal with facts? That’s a good joke. No, you’ve become a little gossip queen who has girls fighting your battles for you on this bloody rag of a site.
My, my…there are an awful lot of bottom-feeders supporting Obama.
That comment dishonors clams, mussels, oysters, crayfish and all Bottom Feeders everywhere!
Your right, I should not have maligned bottom feeders this way. Besides, I love eating crustaceans.
Me too. Nothing sparks up a Friday night like a white sportcoast and a pink crustacean!
I belong to People for Eating Tasty Animals…
Me too.
And very witty wordplay on that title, Mr. Dobbs. (I know that 1950s song, even though it came out before I was born.)
“They would rather take their chances with Hillary.”
Says it all about your candidate, doesn’t it.
Or rather: it would if this tape were anything more than Mr. Johnson’s paranoid fantasy.
See you at Obama’s inauguration.
don’t count your roosting chickens ….
You are wonderful Larry. I admire your work.
I wonder if those videos of Obama overseas have anything to do with the Kenyan election….
Thank you Larry (and Susan ect) for what you are doing, You always stand up for the truth,and our Country, it is sad that people can’t handle that. I am sorry you have to put up with crap because of that.I thank you.
Lyn
ps how could anyone believe sweet Michelle would ever say anything bad about white people, she is such a ray of sunshine always being so kind and positive. /snark
Lonnie, go away you troll.
Larry, you are a hero, a true
patriot! may the force
be with you.
That is the second time this lonnie loach has commented here referring to the women at this site in a derogatory way.
He obviously has a hard time relating to females.
He’s one of the many ob supporters who chose the lesser experience candidate with no records and a highly dishonorable cadre of acquaintances over the best and brightest female candidate in the history of our country.
lonnie loach cockaroach.
I’ve known so many wonderful women througout my entire life, what is your problem with women?
You personify the gender bias we have long felt.
The unity pony must be a gelding!!!!!
It sounds like this Lonnie Loach needs to get laid, but that attitude will get him nowhere.
did you see this? Good Lord he is a disaster http://www.nypost.com/seven/05212008/postopinion/opedcolumnists/obama_to_ajad__atomic_assist_111819.htm
May 21, 2008 — BUOYED by their modest electoral success last month, critics of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s provocative foreign policy were preparing to launch a series of attacks on him in the Islamic Majlis, Iran’s ersatz parliament. But then Ahmadinejad got an unexpected boost from Barack Obama.
Ali Larijani, Iran’s former nuclear negotiator and now a Majlis member, was arguing that the Islamic Republic would pay a heavy price for Ahmadinejad’s rejection of three UN Security Council resolutions on nukes. Then the likely Democratic presidential nominee stepped in.
Obama announced that, if elected, he wouldn’t ask Iran to comply with UN resolutions as a precondition for direct talks with Ahmadinejad: “Preconditions, as it applies to a country like Iran, for example, was a term of art. Because this administration has been very clear that it will not have direct negotiations with Iran until Iran has met preconditions that are essentially what Iran views, and many other observers would view, as the subject of the negotiations; for example, their nuclear program.”

Yup…..makes Hillary’s “obliterate” policy look less like rhetoric and more like the smart plan, eh?
SO now how many other countries has he caused problems in and he isn’t even the Nom, let alone Pres. There is Iran, who if this article is right, were beginning to see the light and going to comly,and the UN and other Countries involved with this Iran mess, Canada/nafta, Pakistan (didn’t they riot after one of his debates?)Kenya, whose leader won’t take calls from him after he stuck his nose in their elections to help cuz Odingo. I’m sure I’m missing a few, but I’m thinking Foriegn policy might not be his strong suit.
There is something that has always bothered me for a while now and no one seems to be aware of it, but do any of you recall something that Bush signed a while back about how he can stop elections if this country is attacked or if we are at war (think Iran). I want to say it was a signing statement or something. Why do I have this nagging feeling that the Republicans either do not care if McCain wins or not right now, because they know that maybe either in October the surprise is “Iran attacks us and we have to respond (even if we are the ones that staged the initial attack)” so Bush and Cheney remain in power. Or, they hope Obama is elected and just like Reagan/Carter swearing in ceremony the hostages are miraculously released – maybe on Obamas swearing in in January Iran “attacks us or Isreal”. (again with BUSH/CHENEYS fingerprints on the weapons” Just a thought – but don’t say I didn’t tell you so if either scenario happens. Stranger things have happened this last year (BYRD supporting Obama for one – that still pisses me off!)
yep, that is the scariest scenario of all, well except for the less likely obama (LOL)presidency.
“President Bush, without so much as issuing a press statement, on May 9 signed a directive that granted near dictatorial powers to the office of the president in the event of a national emergency declared by the president.
“The ‘National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive,’ with the dual designation of NSPD-51, as a National Security Presidential
Directive, and HSPD-20, as a Homeland Security Presidential Directive, establishes under the office of president a new National Continuity
Coordinator.”
Corsi continued by saying, “Translated into layman’s terms, when the president determines a national emergency has occurred, the president can
declare to the office of the presidency powers usually assumed by dictators to direct any and all government and business activities until the emergency is declared over.”
I don’t want to see an Obama presidency either, but what I was thinking is we all know Obama would not be ready to act on day one like Hillary can, that is why the Republicans are so eager to have Obama get the nomination instead of Hillary and in case McCain doesn’t win against Obama, they know they could wreak all kinds of havoc in the MidEast and Obama (Democrats) would be the one looking bad instead of them since the Iraq War is what finally brought down the Republican Party. Now Democrats would be the one to blame for all the war dead. If Hillary got the nomination, she wouldn’t be so easily suckered into anything.
Clarification on my first post above – What I was thinking if they wait till Obama is swearing in as President before the “attack occurs” They can blame the whole war on him and tell the people – see you need us Republicans to protect and destroy enemies! Obama is not ready to lead the country! Meanwhile they use his Presidency to do all the ahvoc they Republicans) want.
Thank you, Larry, for your persistence and commitment to facts and speaking out.
Well, now I’m really curious about the recordings of Obama overseas. Talk about a cliff hanger!! It’s “Who shot JR?” all over again!! Or maybe a more current analogy would be “Does Harry kill Lord Voldemort??”
Thank you Larry. You’re right up there with JK Rowlings. The anticipation is killing me!!
Amen!!
This reeks of vote suppression. Trying to pretend it is over to reduce the vote and make Hillary work twice as hard to battle the bulls#$t. I am pissed.
If they don’t like you talking about the Michelle-Whitey tape … then they’ll REALLY hate you if you bring up the fact that Obama’s grandaddy had 14 wives and Obama has a bunch of muslim cousins running around Kenya (a country he holds duel citizenship in).
(no – Im’ not islamophobic – I’m just saying that they’ll hate you for telling this truth)
Yep … 14 wives.
Such is life huh? One of the Obama love fest blogs had a hayday on the military and their families awhile back along with promoting a bunch of lies about serving soldiers and exsoldiers. Then the man they love so dearly voted to fund a bunch of babykillers in Iraq so they don’t talk about babykillers much anymore. In fact, they seem to pretend that nothing of the sort ever happened there.
Like the other extremes and fanatics, it shows they don’t value the truth or factualy reporting. They only want words that support their agenda. The end justifies the means. I thought they attacked the extreme righties for this, but here, this primary season in particular, they have embraced and emulated it.
We’re not with their program Larry. But that’s ok. I prefer being on the correct side and play the reality program.
I am a McCain supporter. Frankly, I do not buy it. I am skeptical the tape exists, and if it does, I doubt it will be all that damaging. My issues with Obama (and why I think he would lose to McCain) are elsewhere.
As for whether or not Mrs. Obama is a legitamite policitcal target, I agree with those that say it is silly how political spouses have become a target. However, Mrs. Obama has made herself a major surrogate for her husband (in the same way Senator Clinton was a major surrogate for her husband, and how President and Chelsea Clinton have become major surroagets for Senator Clinton). So she will need to deal with it. When President Clinton says something stupid on the campaign trial, it is rightfully an issue. It is the same with Mrs. Obama.
Thank you Larry Johnson, for your courage and integrity. There are quite a few “democratic” leaders who should take a note from you.
Keep up the good work.
Larry,
I have to wonder about something. If one of Obama’s supporters knows about the tapes then Obama or his campaign must know about it. What is he trying to do here? Is he trying to destroy the party? Is he stupid enough to think that he can actually win when all this stuff comes out? It’s crazy.
He thinks the MSM will protect him. Little does he know they work for major corporations and will turn on him in the GE.
It’s best we get this info out BEFORE he’s allowed to steal the election.
Larry,
You are being too kind to Michelle by calling her words “intemperate”.
Well you can’t just write “Miserable Hateful Racist Anti-American Bitch” in a diary. Unless of course it’s me. lol.
I like your style Uppity!
LOL You say what you mean!
No kidding. “intemperate” is NOT the adjective I have used when describing Ms. Not-So-Charming.
I love you, Larry.
Great diary Larry. Thank you for standing up for the truth. So few these days have the insight or courage to do so.
If the DNC is too stupid to heed your warning then they deserve their own fate. I am sure that the powers that be know that you are telling the truth. If an Obama supporter is aware of the video then I am sure someone at the DNC is aware of it too.
So, uh, where’s the evidence of the tapes? I mean you’ve had ample time to corroborate your story…
A very wise mentor of mine once asked me when I was a trainee, “What do you call someone who pisses off both the right and left equally?”
Answer: “A good intelligence officer.”
Bravo Zulu, Larry.
LOL Retired!
Larry–keep up the good fight! Thank God there are still Americans like you working to prevent the biggest fraud that has ever been perpetrated on the American people from getting into the White House. Obama is dangerous, and the American people know it. Michelle is just as bad and she is fair game, because she opened her big mouth. I’m surprised the campaign hasn’t put duck tape over her mouth. She is a ticking time bomb.
We know that after 20 years in that vile hate filled church that the Obamas not only agree with the now famous Rev Wright, but that there is a tape out there. If they weren’t just like him, they wouldn’t have just run the biggest race baiting campaign this country has ever seen.
Hillary knows something, too, or she wouldn’t be going all the way to the Convention in August. There is no way a good American like her would ever stop fighting to defeat the Obama frauds.
We’re with you, Larry. Keep fighting!
True Patriot you are I am so glad we have some still. And, the Obamabots really are clueless. They think that they can say and do anything just because Obama got to use his middle finger in North Carolina. Well, the problem is that there might be someone recording at any time. So, all of those Boneheads mistatement- forget-me-nots – will come back like ghosts in the day light.
I have never commented here before but I have been reading this blog for months now. I would like to thank you, Mr. Johnson. There’s no doubt you are blunt, but I like it. Keep it up and the truth will win out.
KEEP SPEAKING THE TRUTH.
Yep, Secret Agent Flo-bee, is on the case!
Goody, goody gum motherfugging drops! I can’t WAIT for that tape to hit!!! I love to see that strained, worried, tired look in Barack Hussein Obama’s eyes. I just LOVE IT! And, if Coward Dean and those thugs are foolish enough to hand him that nomination, we should see that combination of expressions on a weekly basis once the R.A.M. (Republican Attack Machine) gets in his ass!
Dang that is good! Took me a couple of minutes to stop laughing!!!!
I was just thinking that the tape release should be JUST BEFORE the convention — because if it is as shocking as advertised — people will be in a state of SHOCK. And then snObama will be toast!
If it is release too soon — then people will have time to get over their shock.
I remember how Shocked and sickened people were when the torture photographs were released — but people got over that shock — and now the torture has been spun as being acceptable by the Bush/cheney crowd.
Patients my fighting friends — hopefully ALL will be revealed in good time.
Larry,
Can you make a living by making up and stirring shit on a blogsite?
I heard from countless people that this site is a goner, with Larry ruining his reputation to the adulation of a dozen or so newcomers to the blog.
I found that hard to believe, but from reading your recent efforts, I have to concur, sadly .
I don’t see any of the ‘old’ bloggers here anymore…
What happened to you, Larry?
This site is a goner? Look around buddy … it’s full of life AND TRUTH. Truth .. something the obamatrons don’t get from their messiah.
You are full of shit Larry, and everyone knows it. Speak truth to these nuts coward.

Thank you Larry Johnson, and please keep speaking truth to power.
Truth sets us free.
I LOVE this line Larry.
It sounds like somebody has video/audio of Barack when he was in Kenya.
The Kenya connection has always troubled me.
Why? He visited his father’s family
wasn’t he pretty much thrown out of Kenya..or told to leave..lets go looking that up..shall we??
fly
Was that when he campaigned for his cousin Odingo, who after the election had the people that didn’t vote for him burnt alive in their church along with hundreds of other people? Sounds like a nice family.
He’s a duel citizen of that country.
His church calls Africa their ‘true homeland’.
OF COURSE you’d be troubled by the Kenyan connection
It brings into question his loyalties.
I am troubled not only by his loyalties, but by Kenya’s recent descent into violence. Kenya was a fairly stable country, a tourist attraction. What role, if any, did Obama’s relationship with Odinga and his particpation in that election have in causing the violence?
Idealism without wisdom can be deadly. And Obama is full of it. He doesn’t ever consider the consequences of his actions. He wants to have tea parties with dictators and gives no thought to the potential consequences. We’re just going to all hold hands and sing Kumbaya. Life is not always that simple.
Is he really a dual citizen of Kenya and the USA?
Yes – Obama has dual citizenship with Kenya.
Hillary will win….UUUHHH………MMMMmmmmmmmm, brains……..
Thank you Larry for saying it like it is.
Dude, the Kenya connection is scary cause its a country full of Muslim negros!!! Does it have to be spelled out for you!!!!!!!!!!!
And the other half are being killed off by Odinga anyhow. After all, he wants to run again, so he has to get rid of those pesky people who won’t vote for him.
Yo Yo Yo,
That is not true. Kenya is only 10% Muslim – 80% of Kenya is either Catholic or Protestant.
There is more than enough scary stuff on Obama – lets stick with FACTS. To do otherwise hurts OUR credibility.
Larry you claim to have “briefed Senator Clinton”. Why haven’t you gave her this information? You are full of shit
How do you know he hasn’t “gave” it to her?

The only way I can keep my sanity is to visit here in hopes of reading the unvarnished truth. You never disappoint. Thanks!
There’s also the second half of that tape of him in San Francisco at the Getty mansion analyzing middle America and why they don’t vote for him, probably several tapes of him in Rev Wrights church listening to anti-American Vitriole and saying Amen, etc. etc. HIs associations with Ayers, who launched his senate career. Rezko et. etc. The list is never ending.
This guy is so toast in Nov. it’s so sad that the Democrats have deluded themselves into nominating and unelectable radical left senator with no hope of being elected.
Oh well! There’s a reason why the Republicans usually control the white house. They arent taken to flights of irrational fancy like the dems.
here’s an interesting article about Obama/wright ect http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=MjRhNDQ4MGFlYjk0YzUwNDk0MzYyNTE1ZDkwYmNmNDc=
Left in Church
Deep inside the Wright Trumpet.
By Stanley Kurtz
Since repudiating his former pastor, the Reverend Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., at an April 29 news conference, Barack Obama has done everything in his power to minimize the nature of his relationship with Wright. Supposedly, Obama found Wright’s recent and controversial remarks at the National Press Club shocking, unfamiliar, and out-of-character. In fact, we now know that Wright’s controversial remarks were entirely in character, and that regular church attendance, and even limited familiarity with church publications, would have made Wright’s radical views entirely evident. Indeed, a bit of digging now turns up information that makes it next-to-impossible not to conclude that Obama has long been familiar with Wright’s radicalism.
Most of pigs tell you that Hillary is a loser for sure;
Nobody see OB is a loser in the fall.
5/5 for that! Go Larry!
Great blog, Larry!
i would like to offer a suggestion to everybody commenting here (please note the idea is NOT mine, but i’ve seen it implemented on some blogs, and i think it’s brilliant).
When your comment is in answer to a previous post, just start yours with @previous post. For instance, if you answer John Doe, you begin your post this way:
@John Doe
I disagree with your… (a.s.o.)
This would avoid the confusion created by everybody talking over each other’s posting and replying to a comment posted somewhere “in the boonies up there”. After a while, nobody has any idea of who is talking to whom, and this @ thing would solve it. i guess even a lobamatomized person could agree!
I’ve read from other sources that the tape of MIchelle’s “Whitey” rantings exist.
Larry U R great. Keep up the good work. My mom has heard you on radio programs before…
Keep up the good work. I been intimidated and threatened by an official of the Dem party in NC for sending out an e-mail that contained a link to your article about this. I have a 100 name mailing list of Hillary supporters. So, I know what you are dealing with. Keep it up; I am.
A temporary resident of NC, I know how stodgy and ineffectual North Carolina Democrats can be. The Democratic establishment in Charlotte is particularly useless. And I will not even mention the entrenched figures in the ninth Congressional district. But there it is.
Continue to irritate the mindless drones, for the North Carolina Democratic Party needs to be upended.
Larry, I read the majority, if not all, of your posts. Thank you for your frank assessment and always, always, cutting straight to the heart of the matter. As you said, this is about FACTS. The Obama supporters who are living in lala land need to get a grip and get over their need to be right and get what they want at the expense of the rest of us. This is not a vote for prom king and queen. Obama will be toasted by Labor Day. That is the plan, according to Mr. Wilson, who, like you, has many friends on the inside who know of what they speak. While you hearsay evidence of what is to come, may not be admissible in court, in my view, you are one of the few credible reporters of the “facts” and I believe that this will be a virtual bloodbath if the Obamas are front and center after the Democratic Convention in August.
At least you can take comfort in saying that you gave these idiots fair warning. That is really all any of us can do at this poiint. If the Democrats want to commit political suicide, so be it. The blame will rest at the feet of Howard Dean, Donna Brazile and the rest of the Democratic sell-outs, not with Hillary Clinton and those of us that can see the obvious. What a fucking shame.
Keep it up Larry! You reassure those of us aghast at this travesty that there is still some integrity out there!
Hear, hear!
A toast to Larry Johnson!
Keep up the good work! We have to stop Obama. Every single day, he gets scarier and scarier with things he says. Now the latest is small countries like Iran, Afghanistan etc. don’t pose a treat to this country! Oh, that’s good, you fucking communist, keep up your delusional thinking and get this country wiped off the map.
I want to know how cnn can get away with the trash talking from david gurgen about her needing to tell her supporters she did not want their vote if they were racists. WTF? And is that real about the t-shirts or a joke? I already boycott the boys and Mika (the under the desk b*tch for the boy) she is now number one enemy since her brother and father brzenzski work for Obama. Now no more CNN. Gloria Borger makes me gag and don’t even get me started about friggin Roland Martin. If he thinks he can just threaten women with Roe v. Wade being overturned he needs to get another act. Donna Brazile she is the worst. How is she gonna feel about Obami’s boy taking over the DNC didn’t she want that job?
Cannot believe it – I say all the way to the convention. If it takes the party imploding – great.
Never backing down, “I will continue to speak truth to power.” I’m not even Republican and I’m licking my lips. That MO is mean and she needs to be exposed for the fraud that she is. It’s all about ME ME ME with her and hers.
Larry Johnson, You freaking Rock! The truth is the truth and let the chips fall where they may. And if you write the truth about someone who I happen to favor…Well thanks for that too. Better to know the truth today than find out the hard way tomorrow. Its the only way to make any kind of informed decision. (if someone’s a cheater, its better to know before the wedding.) Thanks Larry.
larry deals with facts? yet he said the media was wrong on the clinton sniper fire story, and hillary says another thing. hillary said she wrong, larry. this is the same guy who claims he knows clinton. what a complete fraud.
If Obama is nominated, the Elephascists [aka GOP] will have so much juicy attack-ad material they won’t even need to steal this election.
The GOP may have a bit of a hard time learning how to deal with not having to lie and steal to win the election… sort of like someone coming out of detox.
All the trolls:

Do it before its too late!
Doesn’t it seem possible or even likely to you that these unnamed sources may be trying to ruin your reputation by giving you nonsense? I think we have to be very careful of right wing sources. We don’t want to appear to be rumor mongers, right? If we do, we risk losing our credibility.
Your naivity is astonishing!
Larry Johnson is the former
Intelligence analysis and operations officer, CIA; Deputy Director, Office of Counter Terrorism, Department of State.
He now has his own successful company, our governement depends on to continue his fantastic and always well done work.
Larry not able to spot when someone is trying to scam him????
Um…. I still have a few deeds left for a Bridge in Brooklyn for you and your friends.
This is better reading than the recent hissy fits.
It might not be true about the tapes but it is entertaining.Keep it up. Love it.
Larry…..you my brother are a Great American.
It’s impracical for Democrats to refuse to acknowledge Obama’s (many sizeable) warts, and the irrational responses remind me of someone who’s just found out that the Picasso that cost him or her their entire life savings is a fake.
First, denial. (”It’s not true!”)
Then, anger. (”HILLARY’s responsible for this!”)
This will be followed by bargaining. (”It was Michelle who was talking, not Barrack,” or “That’s not what Michelle meant,” or “Michelle’s remarks are being taken out of context,” or “Michelle is right!”)
And, when McCain becomes the next president of the United States, depression and ultimately acceptance (”The success of Obama’s campaign shows that America is ready to elect a black president. We simply need to run a better candidate.”)
But please, Larry, don’t take the attacks personally. Right now, Obama supporters are just incredibly frustrated by the fact that you can’t polish a sneaker.

That billionaire is correct– McCain will easily beat Obama in the fall.
Great work, Larry!
And all that money isn’t doing that billionaire any good right now is it?
can’t take it with you either
(I don’t know maybe there is ONE honorable American out there who has possession of said tape and will give it up before it’s too late for our GAL)
for the sake of the nation
for the sake of unity
because that is what HILLARY has done for me. I no longer despise the right. I didn’t think anyone would be able to do that ever again.
She’s something else.
She DESERVES TO BE PRESIDENT
yep
she really does
If the democratic party is so unfortunate as to have Barack as a nominee.
Michelle Obama was a racist even in college and called blacks who choose to integrate into “White society,” Uncle Toms.
More from her here. http://patriotroom.com/?p=364
Oh man … I’m ROTFLMAO
The guy who outted Rove for outting Palme is now the Horned Man for the DNC Obamabot crusade ….. this just keeps getting better
I can’t wait for the Beltane campfire cookout and marshmallow roast
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
I guess we can forgive Teddy K. for creating Obama … what with the brain tumor, and all.
Thank you Larry, for your continuing courage and strength! What a great article!
Hillbuzz.blogspot.com mentioned you and this very piece yesterday:
To say the least, it sure cheered me up! That and Hillary’s declaration to fight for FL & MI. I saw a bumper sticker today that expresses my mood completely:
WHOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOO!
[...] another Foleygate smear job Larry Johnson, big Clinton fanatic and your basic political hitman, has re-affirmed the existence of a video where Michelle Obama rails against “whitey”: I am not sorry that folks are disquieted [...]
Lies, all lies. Why are you trying to destroy America’s true messiah. Are you playing with God’s work. Barack is a saint who shall bring America to paradise and show the world America is the greatest. Michelle is our Mary. Please she doesn’t mean what she says.
Thank, you Larry, for telling the truth!
Thank you Larry!! I am a senior proud black woman who has had an uneasy feeling about “The Second Coming Obama”, I continually get berated for not supporting this person who has far too many skeletons in the closet for me. Thank you speaking the truth. I have always felt that “Miss Michelle” will ultimately be a part of his downfall. SHE TALKS TOO MUCH!!! Ug-g-g-g-g-gh
Obama is a great orator, but beyond that no substance to back it up.
He will not be getting my vote.
