Whitey Saga Gate XI...or Barack Obama said it's a load of bunk therefore it MUST be true...

June 5th 2008 4:58pm- Ben Smith at Politico reports that when asked on the campaign plane about "THAT TAPE", Senator Obama says take your bullshit and shove it.

“We have seen this before. There is dirt and lies that are circulated in e-mails and they pump them out long enough until finally you, a mainstream reporter, asks me about it,” Obama said to the McClatchy reporter during a press conference aboard his campaign plane. “That gives legs to the story. If somebody has evidence that myself or Michelle or anybody has said something inappropriate, let them do it.”

But our hero Flowbee isn't taking a lack of evidence, unsubstantiated rumour from third hand sources, an inconsistent ever changing story and a call of bullshit from Senator Obama sitting down!

I mean dude...not even Michelle Malkin is touching this one!

But clearly to anyone with a wisened head for this sort of thing, if you add all these incredible "flowbee facts" together it equals THE TAPE EXISTS PEOPLE!!

"If someone was accusing my wife of saying something racist that was not true, and you asked me in public, I would say emphatically and clearly, “it is not true.” So what is Barack’s problem."

Yeah! What the fuck IS his problem?! I mean it's not like he's got anything to do like running for President or anything. What, he doesn't have time to confront every single piece of bullshit rumour mongering the internet throws his way? What am i, chopped liver?! VALIDATE ME BARACK!!! VALIDATE MEEEE!!!

"But when a politician tap dances on nuance–Baby it is true. My sources have not backed off. They maintain they have a tape and will drop it on the Dems in the fall. Now if Barack said, “No, and hell no” I would be wondering about my sources. But he punted. He went for the weasel word. The non-denial denial."

But a couple of days ago didn't you tell us that the Obama Campaign was telling reporters that any rumours of the "THE TAPE" was a “scurrilous lie”? That sounds pretty definitive to me?

Anyway Flowb, somehow i doubt very much you would actually get a little thing called nuance. Like for example the beginning of his response where without saying it he said "This is a load of bullshit and thats my final answer".

Though if he actually HAD come out and said in a not so nuanced way "No and hell no!" you'd no doubt be interpreting it as an "extraordinary freakout" in which he is clearly SCARED because he knows the tape is real and that it's coming down the pipe. Which IS it Larry?!

"It also is curious that the Obama folks put out the word that Michelle didn’t say “WHITEY”. Nope, according to them she said, “WHY DID HE.” Hmmmm. Why would you put that out if the recording of the event did not exist? Then you have the frantic scrubbing of Trinity websites."

And yet still no evidence that the "Obama folks" put out this word at all. Just yours. Which...i gotta say isn't exactly convincing me right now. Add to that that it looks like the whole "why'd he" meme started as a pretty lame joke...and your claim is even less credible. Yeesh. Won't SOMEONE cut this guy a break!?

"How about efforts to check the video files of Chicago TV stations? Stymied. The local ABC station says they will only give up a video if there is a subpoena."

Er...did they? Where? Link? Evidence? Not even a plausible blog entry in which you follow this up? Guess not...

"So, sure looks to me that there a recording of Michelle’s racist rant exists in the hands of folks working to help elect McCain."

Well if by "sure" you mean "it looks like a steaming fresh lincoln log pulled from your ass" then i would have to agree.

"But if you call what he said a denial then you yourself are in a state of (denial that is)."

Man i love it when he tries to "snap a Z" at the world! Take THAT naysayers! It's about as natural and convincing as John Mccain hammering home "thats not...change...WE can believe in...heh heh heh heh heh."
