More on Michelle Obama's 'whitey' video.

Larry Johnson over at No Quarter USA has posted that he's found out what exactly is on that 'whitey' video we'd mentioned last week.

He writes:
"I learned over the weekend why the Republicans who have seen the tape of Michelle Obama ranting about 'whitey' describe it as 'STUNNING.' It features Michelle Obama and Louis Farrakhan. They are sitting on a panel at Jeremiah Wright’s Church when Michelle makes her intemperate remarks. Whoops!! When that image comes out it will enter the politcal ads hall of fame. It will be right up there with the little girl plucking daisy petals in the famous 1964 ad LBJ used against Barry Goldwater.

"Barack may have quit his church but his religious problems are not over."
No Quarter USA also points out that, on FoxNews over the weekend, it would seem that Roger Stone, a political consultant and opposition researcher who works for the Republican National Committee, seemed to have confirmed the existence of the tape over the weekend, even suggesting that at least one major news outlet already has their hands on it.

Stone said:
This has little to do with the general election and a lot to do with why Hillary Clinton is staying in the race. Look, there is already a buzz in Washington 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 had spoken to each one of them. I now believe the tape exists and I believe a network has it. If this pans to out to be true based on Michelle Obama’s previous comment that this is the first time she had been proud of her country which I think shows an attitude it is problematic.
Michelle saying those things all on her own would've been bad enough. Saying them while seated alongside Louis Farrakhan ... ? Wow.

If Barack gets the nomination, expect this to get really ugly.
