On June 2 of this year Larry Johnson of No Quarter reported on the alleged existence of a tape in which Michelle Obama used the word “whitey” in a racist derogatory manner. This was supposedly done in the presence of Louis Farrakhan. The rumor of an existing tape began headlining news in the mainstream media. It was then I decided to report on it.

I backtracked the story and discovered it did in fact begin with Larry Johnson of No Quarter. Johnson is a rabid Hillary Clinton supporter and former member of the CIA. In his efforts to give this story legs he posted a group photo containing Michelle Obama and the wife of Louis Farakhan.

Yesterday Larry Johnson reported what we all pretty much predicted would happen. There is a tape but the GOP has decided not to use it at the request of John McCain. Is anyone surprised?

The Whitey Tape–None of my three main sources on who told me about the existence of a video recording of Michelle Obama making disparaging comments about white folks have backed off. Two of these sources are Democrats and are journalists. They were not trying to sabotage the Obama campaign. They were passing on something they believed to be true. The fact that my third source, a person who lives on the West Coast and is a Republican, has no ties whatsoever to the other two but told the same story persuaded me this “tape” exists. My Republican friend tells me that the McCain campaign intervened and requested the tape not be used.

There also is the fact that the Obama campaign at one point circulated the lame story that Michelle was not using “whitey” as an epithet. Nope. She was saying, “Why’d he.” You don’t put out a story line like that if such a recording does not exist. At this point I don’t think it is going to be used.

This is one “whitey” tape rumor put to bed.
