Blah, blah, blah... There is new dagger laden book out about the Obama White house that claims all this stuff about them. ( Michelle killed Vince Foster ). One of the most far fetched story is about ... a Halloween party, really.
The steaming pile of shit that is Rush Limbaugh ( and really that is an insult to steaming piles of shit ) is latching on to this like it was his last bottle of Oxycontin.
From Huffpo : "The Obamas," by New York Times reporter Jodi Kantor, has already prompted a fierce response from the White House to its stories of infighting between Michelle Obama and her husband's staff. But the media has latched onto another story in the book. Kantor alleges that the White House deliberately downplayed a lavish, Tim Burton-designed Halloween party held in 2009 so as not to appear out of touch with economically struggling voters.Though they did not mention the details of the party in official briefings at the time, the White House has pushed back on this story as well, saying that the news of the party was mentioned in a Tennessee paper and on a Johnny Depp fan website.
Limbaugh, though, said he agreed with those who saw an aura of secrecy around the event. He also said the media was complicit in covering it up."No way the press didn't know about this," he said. "If we didn't know about this, what else is going on in there that we didn't know about... that the press knows about but is choosing not to report?"
Limbaugh also raised the subject of slavery and Jim Crow when he analyzed the Obamas' behavior in office. He said that the couple viewed their tenure as an opportunity to "live high on the hog," and that the idea that they were "owed this because of what's been done to us and our ancestors" was "part of" their thinking."
Vile.

I read a few long excerpts and thought MO came off very well in the end. I'm going to read the whole book and then I can chat with all these folks who latch onto the negative. You can have it when I'm through with it.
