    Great find, blue. I hope more people learn about this--the propagandists can't even come up with original smears!

    FTA:

    "Not a single shred of evidence has surfaced to support this claim. Nobody has actually said they've personally seen it. It hasn't been posted to YouTube as you'd expect on something this juicy. Even Republican operatives we've spoken to say they don't believe it exists."

    I don't see any need to seek a source in the past, or in a work of fiction.

    The spin-meistering of the vicious right sees no distinction between fact and fiction anyway.

    Motherf****** of Invention!

    Ah good! The early morning bleariness seems to be diminishing.

    Check brain: OK

    Check Right and Wrong: Still synched. No immediate risks. Alertness required

    Check humour: Farcical. Appropriate only for discussing the eerie world of US politics.

    I don't need a rumor to know that she is a racist Anti-American bitch. Just going to Wright's church for 20 years proves the racist part.

    I heard the anti-American stuff spew right from her own mouth.

    There was an article I came across in a conservative magazine while I was at the dentist's office regarding Obama being like a cult leader possessing hypnotic powers and his followers were like sheep similar to the Moonies. The "Cult of Obama" I believe he called it. This was the writers explaination on why Obama draws such large crowds like the roughly 70,000 supporters who attended his rally in Oregon.

    Then Rush Limbaugh comes up with his "magic negro" slur to describe Obama and his campaign. Scott 4261 pointed out (above) that the GOP was runnin' scared. Boy Howdy, they're actually turning to the "supernatural" to try and smear Obama since they've got nothing substantial on this astro-plane of reality/existence. Obama is evil and in league with the Devil, must be "Black" magic. Har, Har, Har.

    Dim wits all. No point in even attempting to communicate with them, more likely to engage a slug than anyone who buys their Kool aid.

    The smears won't work anymore, better find some other way to avoid issues and truth. No one with a brain stem believes their garbage anymore.

      What I found interesting was the reaction the story got on Propeller....You'd a thought it was a done deal.

        Isn't it pitiful what some people will resort to in the name of politics. I have just about had my fill of the dirty politics. I don't know how much more i intend to participate on Prop, it's become hard to deal with.

        Faux News, this just in,

        Republican Spin Doctor: "Michelle Obama is a witch in the Cult of Obama".

        Skeptical American Voter: "Ah Witch!?!?!? How do you know?"

        Republican Spin Doctor: "She turned me into a Newt".

        what i find interesting about this rumor is that if it did materialize it would surprise no-one and wouldnt change anyones view--the osamabama faithful would defend and explain every word of it--the dinosaur media would drag out the "we need to understand how they feel" propaganda--sharpton would say whatever it is that he says--and it certainly wouldnt shock me to hear this sort of rhetoric from this shrew..it might offend some people in the middle of nebraska but i doubt it would cost barry O many votes ..probably gain some in the "keeping the black man down" white guilt sympathy column

        I would be very surprised, ningyo. But personally, I agree with the person who said there would be more than one video and it would have surfaced in the news if there were a shred of truth in it. The evidence against it continues to grow -- Michelle wasn't a speaker at any of the events and person who started the rumor has repeatedly contradicted himself.

        The piece of fiction with a similar quote from a fictional black presidential candidate is probably coincidence. Coincidences do happen.

        The original rumor just shows how desperate those on the right are. So many of you appear to believe that the end justifies the means. Trouble is the means ends up subverting the end. That's at least part of what went wrong with GWB's presidency.

          I'm from northern Ohio and I admit to having several Republican friends. They are all unabashedly racist, homophobic and pro-war.

          Most still believe Saddam was behind 9/11 and had WMD so it's no surprise these NeoCon minions would spread these kind of stories.

          CUZ THEY WORK ON THESE PEOPLE!

          Can we all grow up about this Michelle Obama hates America?

          I mean who among us with half a brain hasn't hated their country, president, mother, father, brother, neighbor, dog, job etc... at one time or another?

          I think this time we can't afford to be distracted.

          Me, take the Rush Limbaugh/Magic Negro story out of context, NEVER. It was just re-spun from the Karl Rove Cookbook: "How To Win An Election With Just Smoke and Mirrors, Lies and Bullsh*t," Vol.2., Slanted Press International, 1999.

            I was wondering what other novels could be used to slander Obama:

            He has a ring that turns him invisible; it is slowly corrupting him into becoming a socialist elitist Wraith.

            Obama has a secret tattoo on his wrist, of a skull with a snake coming from the mouth; it appears only when the Democratic forum is called to meet.

            Obama loved another woman before he became the Great Obama; now he throws huge parties of champaign-fountains and dancing by the pool, but turns lonely eyes to this mysterious, languid Daisy.

            Left out of his autobiography were the childhood years where he learned to be a pickpocket in London; the ringleader that taught him theft and politics was named Fagen Rezco.

            Can I get paid to do this now?

              Based on past experience, the Democratic candidates and their spouses can be expected to be unmasked by the Republican Guardian Angels, AKA The Freeboat Flotilla, as "Frauds", "Perverts", "Pedofiles", "Child- and Wife-beaters", "Drunks", "Dop-addicts", "Closet-Q***s", "Islamists", and worst of all, as "LIBBURALS"...

              Strange enough,but understandably, never a mention of any supra-umbilical vices!
