UPDATE:

In the agreement, Fox News Network will broadcast 39 minutes of the 54 minutes long tape. The whole tape cannot be aired unedited due to security reasons and especially due to the explosive political temperature in the country because of the Presidential elections that is just around the corner, November 4th.

Whoa - I wonder what they've got her on tape saying?

Check this link also: www.ireport.com...

A final agreement has been reached between African Press International (API) and Fox News Network (USA) on the dates to air the Michelle Obama tape arising from a discussion Mrs Obama had with the API two weeks ago. The show will take place any day/time from now, with a 15 minutes alert on when it is to take place. Other programmes will be interrupted. This is a precaution taken to avoid interference from any quarter.

I've never liked Barack or Michelle, but of the two I especially can't stand Michelle. Every time I see her up on a podium speaking I get the impression that she's a very angry woman inside who is doing her very best to control her temper and keep from saying something racist.

This could be bigger than the so-called "whitey tape".

so it's just going to be on fox news... any time, any day? they don't want to tell us when they'll show it... yet?

what exactly is supposedly on this tape, i couldn't find any specific info in your link?

Perhaps this is the mysterious - Michelle Obama 'whitey' tape.

edited to add - sometimes the press gets times and stories mixed up.

It could be. (I doubt it though)

This supposed organization 'API' has been talking about it for a month. Put up or shut up.

I'm 100% convinced that this particular tape does not exist. Its bullcrap, as far as I'm concerned.

She's on video tape saying that no law can stop her husband from becoming president. She's on tape attempting to bribe the african press by telling them if they write a favorable article about her husband, they can get good press seats, etc. In other words, she made an idiot out of herself and ran off at the mouth. She is a loose cannon for the Obama campaign. If you notice, she's not nearly as public now as she was earlier in the campaign. I think they've been trying to keep her under house arrest and away from the press.

hrm...

I wonder if the suppression of the tape is real, or if its a ploy to bring more attention to the tape...

Either way, i'm interested to see what all the hubub is about!

Nice find!

Well if it's true and Fox has possession of the tape you can bet sometime between today and Friday. I doubt as many people pay attention to the news on the weekend as they do the weekdays and Monday would be way too late.

The chckens!......have come home!!!....TO ROOST!!!!

MY THREAD -

Michelle Obama strong arms African Press International.

She makes some racist statements - to paraphrase = API needs to back Obama because he's black.

There's some more info at this thread for anyone interested.

I don't know if this is the same story or not ....

where exactly do you get this information? do you have a link or anything? anything to disprove vor78?

The problem is that only conservatives watch Fox anyway. Dems/Liberals don't watch it and undecided sheeple just watch CNN or read their local paper.

It is at the point now where I feel that no matter what Obama would or could do, the people would still love him.

Just completely blinded.

Whether the tape exists or not doesn't matter as far as I'm concerned. McCain can win this if he's smart and sticks to driving home the fact of how Obama's tax plan will hurt our economy.

That's the golden ticket, not some tape exposing Michelle's racist side, though I admit that would be the icing on the cake.

Oh god, Fox News is handling it?

I personally don't find them credible whatsoever, and won't watch it.

Especially since its obviously going to edited, since they're not releasing the full version. What does the upcoming election have to do with informing the public of what the possible next first lady is saying? If anything, this is the time to release it in its entirety, thereby voters are fully informed, prior to election day.

What a travesty, watch they'll wait until after the election to release it; but by then it will be too late. As usual.

Just to present a possibly overlooked portion of this "report", note near the top of the linked page the disclaimer:

iReport.com is a user-generated site. That means the stories submitted by users are not edited, fact-checked or screened before they post. Only stories marked "On CNN" have been vetted for use in CNN news coverage

(*Bolding is mine.*)

So this story is not in any way official or deemed more than another blog type opinion post. For that reason, it qualifies as a rumor, and under the new guidelines for these political forums cannot remain.

Therefore, I am moving it to a better suited forum.

My question is, who untied Michelle and let her out of the closet with only a week left to go???

Mighty interesting....


Guess I will have to stay tune.... 3 Million dollar bribe....Is that considered spreading the wealth.....

You are unfortunately very correct. He could pull out an AK-47 and spray a bus filled with elementary school kids and the crowds would still adore him and his supporters would still portray him as a living God with the leader worship mentality so common to dictatorships we have seen time and again.

At this point it dosent matter, our only chance to beat Obama was for the Republicans to have nominated a real Republican and not a pretender that is so out of touch that he dosent even know what kind of car he owns or how many houses he has.

I have resigned myself to the living in the New York SSR of the United Socialist States of America

It's a good question. But my opinion is that, they had the tape for quite some time and held it, anxiously awaiting this very moment in time to set it loose. People don't just get tapes and show them right away, usually. No. There is a bit of planning involved, first.

That is, of course if this story is actually true.



edit to add: I also think that this tape is actually old. They're just advertising it to be new information. The information on the tape has probably been widely discussed and heard. Just the physical appearance of her talking about ____ is the basis of the tape. I feel confident that whatever is on the tape has already been discussed.

Well in order for their to be an "October surprise" they need to air the tap by Friday the 31st.

Of course it won't affect the thousands upon thousands of people who voted early and it won't affect any of the thousands of dead voters, prisoners, cartoon characters, and pro athletes that ACORN has setup to vote.
