The OTHER Michelle tape

As you probably know, API -- African Press International, based in Norway -- published an interview with Michelle Obama in which she said some rather bizarre things. The media consensus holds that the interview is bogus. Perhaps so. API, however, stands by the story and says that they will soon release audio tapes which prove that Michelle really did say the words ascribed to her.

API has recordings of the conversation between API and Mrs Obama...on a direct telephone to API., and we confirm that the audio will be released to the public. In the last 24 hours, API has been consulting legal advisers on the way forward in order to avoid being sued by the Obama camp. API has realised that the contents of the tapes if made public may change the political atmosphere in America for ever, especially in the next few days.

The odd statements ascribed to Michelle, if genuine, would not be game-changers. But proof that Obama boldly lied about the matter might affect the race.

She came off a little hysterical and definitely defensive in that interview.

Mrs. Obama's view that API should supporting Africans and African Americans is a little disturbing. Here I thought that news organizations should be telling the truth no matter how painful. Silly me.

They need not be game-changers. In an election this close every percentage point counts.

Just when I'd almost calmed down, and you bring up Michelle...
