		<description>Speaking of First Lady Michelle Obama:

Michelle Obama is a racial-minority individual, and in her heart and mind she inevitably does not endorse hate crimes committed by George W. Bush.
 
George W. Bush committed hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism (indicated in my blog).
 
George W. Bush did in fact commit innumerable hate crimes.
 
And I do solemnly swear by Almighty God that George W. Bush committed other hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism which I am not at liberty to mention.
 
Many people know what Bush did.
 
And many people will know what Bush did—even to the end of the world.
 
Bush was absolute evil.
 
Bush is now like a fugitive from justice.
 
Bush is a psychological prisoner.
 
Bush has a lot to worry about.
 
Bush can technically be prosecuted for hate crimes at any time.
 
In any case, Bush will go down in history in infamy.

		<description>API says they're in conversation with FOX News on a release.  Problem is... FOX News says they've had no conversation with API on any Michelle Obama audio.  Oops.</description>

		<description>Being from Illinois, we get to hear a bit more of the political silliness that goes on within our state. There is thought (or lack thereof)that Senator Dick Durbin would keep Obama from going "crazy liberal". My God! Durbin is to Liberal as Kellogg's is to corn flakes. What idiot conceived that notion??? I am not a strong supporter of McCain, but I can certainly tell the difference between the frying pan and the fire!. In all the elections I've been through, I have never seen a more bitter, hate filled race for president. Obama is not ready for presidency. Maybe in 8-10 years, but NOT now. Our economy is titering on the brink and our country can't afford a second term of another Jimmy Carter. Wake up people! If you're not concerned, you're NOT PAYING ATTENTION!!!!</description>

		<description>I am definitely NOT voting for Obama, but I have to voice my doubts about the API.  If they have the tapes, they need to get them out in the public.  This stalling game is silly, and it makes them appear as if they are bluffing.</description>

		<description>This could be a hoax, or it could be true.  I guess we'll know when API decides to produce the tape. 

But as far as I'm concerned, the story is not beyond possibility.  don't you ever, ever dare say anything negative about Senator Obama.

Jesse Jackson, Pastor Wright, Michelle Obama, and Louis Farrakhan have all given warning that Senator Obama might not view non-blacks in an equal and just manner. Relationships with Bill Ayers, Acorn and Tony Rezco have also warned us that Senator Obama might use corrupt methods to obtain his objectives. 

But don't you dare think any of it might be true, and heaven help you if you talk to anyone about it.

An Obama Presidency frightens me for this very reason.

		<description>Sean, why do you have to make fun of a foreigner who doesn't have the same command of the English language that you have???  Look at the United States, we all speak differently, and I'm not just talking about 'us' as in different ethnic backgrounds, I'm talking about the different areas of the United States.  Southerners have a different way of speaking from those up North, New York alone has a different way of speaking (Bronx and Brooklyn), look at how many people make fun of the way Sarah Palin talks.
My in-laws are from Sweden and they are both very educated people, they have a wonderful command SPEAKING in English (with slight accents), but when they write a letter it comes out differently.  Give the Editor a break here!
And if this story is true ~ Kudos for the open letter to Michelle Obama.  And I can't blame you for wanting to purge yourself of the smear the Obama camp has thrown onto you by calling you liars, so I can see why you would want to make the tapes public.
I'll withhold judgment (spelling? it doesn't look right) until the tapes are released, but I have a nagging doubt in that the same lawyer that brought the 'Obama is not a citizen' lawsuit is also representing African Press.  But I just have a very suspicious nature.  No offense.
And, yes, Sean, I realize that I don't have a great command of the English language either, so I'll call myself a Kindergarten student and save you the trouble!</description>
