Did Michelle Obama refer to white people as “whitey”?
The blogs are abuzz with rumors of a tape that shows presidential hopeful Barack Obama’s wife referring to white people with the derogatory term “whitey.” Here is a YouTube video from Fox News where they discuss the possibility of such a tape. I’ll post updates as I find out more. Keep in mind this could be just a rumor.
UPDATE: My fellow blogger Jim Geraghty believes that there is nothing to this story. I’ll keep updating this post as more information comes to light. My gut tells me it is probably a rumor, but it would not surprise me if it were true.
