Roger Stone Claims Michelle Obama 'Whitey' Video Will Soon Surface

@ 2:24 pm by Andy Barr

Legendary conservative political hit man Roger Stone says a tape of Michelle Obama referring to white people as "whitey" is about to surface.

"At least seven news organizations have contacted me, wanting to know how to get their hands on this tape, giving me more information than I had after I've spoken to each one of them," Stone said Sunday on Fox.

Stone also said the existence of the tape is part of the reason Hillary Clinton is staying in the race.

"I now believe the tape exists. I believe a network has it," Stone said.

  1. Oh please……this black woman is a racist, pure and simple. Just perfect for our first lady!!

  2. Oh give me a break. If they had it, they would have used it by now. It doesn't exist. But even the rumor of it is enough to make the Repubs salivate. Snicker.

  3. of course it exist and of course the network will sit on it post-election.

    She is a disgusting racist pig. What does that make Barry Hussein Obama? Complicit AND stupid.

  4. tell me how you call the name calling, the accusations of racism substantive and how does it advances debate???

    Comment by Frits — June 2, 2008 @ 4:03 pm

  5. The easiest thing to do is to call someone a bigot when it there is no substantive or legitimate reason to disagree with them. The next POTUS will be Barack Huseein Obama and he will be joined by his wife: Michelle Obama and the entire world will rejoice! Moving right along…..

  6. Hey, I am a "whitey" with blonde hair, blue eyes, do you think I care if I am refered to as whitey!! I could care less!!!!
    Obama mama, here!!!

  7. I believe the tape does exists and it will be shown as soon as HRC is out of the picture. Not to long ago Barack Hussein Obama refered to his grandmother as a "Typical white woman" His words not mine. That comment make me wonder what he thinks about "whitey". All is I can tell you he will not be elected. Not because of his color, but because of his views and associations.

  8. The alleged existence of the tape is some last minute hokey pokey by Clinton friendly forces trying to scare superdelegates into holding back their support for Senator Obama. Remember Hillary is backed by the NEOCONS/MIC which is why the mainstream media has fostered the illusion of her viable candidacy all this time. It makes for great theater. But in the end, winning a primary in Puerto Rico matters as much as winning one in Guatemala.

  9. Considering the Rev. Wright debacle, does anyone with half a brain think that this, if it existed, wouldn't be out there in half a nanosecond? Why do people forget Obama is half white? Oh that's right…because they're racist and it's politically advantageous. Roger Stone, as ever realizes that it's enough to simply suggest this without any substantive proof of it because people will repeat it anyway, same way some idiots still think Obama is muslim. Sorry you lose. Please try again.

  10. Why do you think he quit that peace loving church he attends. I believe there is more to come and Roger Stone knows what he is talking about. By November we will know who the racist is and it won't be Mccain. I've learned a lot about the democratic party over the last year, and the only reason they call republicans racist is because they are trying to hide behind their views. They don't believe in empowering African Americans they only want to hold them back for votes.

  11. Barack is half white himself, you know. He's just as white as he is black, This tape obviously doesn't exist, but even if it did, So what? What's wrong with "whitey?" I'm white and I couldn't care less.

    John McCain is on record as once havingsaid "I hate Gooks," so even if this tape existed (which it doesn't, McCain wouldn't be abl;e to touch it.

    I am amused by all the bizarre, paranoid fantasies you rednecks on the right keep dreaming up, though. You have some very vivid imaginations. Keep dreaming.I can't wait to laugh in your inbred, hillbilly faces on elction day. Barack is going to be your next president. Suck it, skinheads.

  12. It is obvious that both Michelle Obama and her husband are racists. That is why Obama won't will the general election in November. That's sad, because then we're stuck with another Bush for at least 4 more years, and we had a GREAT candidate in Hillary Clinton. I hope this tape, if it indeed exists, comes out and is played in heavy rotation on every channel conceivable. I do not feel Obama is to be trusted. I am a life-long Democrat and I will NOT vote for him in November…I will abstain or vote for McCain .

    Comment by Jethro — June 3, 2008 @ 8:57 pm

  13. But McCain can openly spew racist slurs in public and the media doesn't even give it the time of day when the man looks set to go head to head with Obama for the White House and possibly become the President for over 12 million Asian-Americans, or "gooks" as McCain calls them.

    Double standards? That hardly covers it. The corporate media are once again protecting their war candidate, Mr. "bomb bomb bomb Iran", Mr. "stay in Iraq for 100 years" while crucifying Obama for comments made by other people that pale in comparison to McCain's personal vitriol about his deep-seated hatred of "gooks".

  14. I hope it's true, Obama is all fluff . and no substance.

  15. This is what you do when you can’t compete on issues, judgment, integrity, authenticity, real solutions.
