Jammie’s hiding boxers with Valentine’s Day hearts on them:

Barack Obama is the target of a shadowy smear campaign designed to derail his bid for the US Presidency by falsely claiming he had a close friendship with an attractive African-American female employee.

The whispers focus on a young woman who in 2004 was hired to work on his team for his bid to become a senator.

The woman was purportedly sidelined from her duties after Senator Obama’s wife, Michelle, became convinced that he had developed a personal friendship with her.

I guess this really is the new Camelot.

In the most commonly-purveyed version of the rumour, she was ‘exiled’ to a Caribbean island because Michelle Obama objected to her job on the 2004 campaign.

Caribbean queen
Now we’re sharing the same dream
And we steal votes just for fun
No more love for The One…

I lose my cool when she calls my campaign
And I get so excited when the press speaks her name
Square, digitally pixelated eyes that you can’t ignore
And passion burns like familiar cold sores.

I was in search of a good time
Just running my game
Michelle was the furthest
Furthest from my mind

Terrorist fist jab to Billy Ocean.

Some of the Lefties are asking – Who is Vera Baker?
And one of the commenters gives her website.

Network Solutions says that it’s not registered in Martinique but rather in New York City and listing Miss Baker as the contact complete with e-mail and phone number.

Secretary of State search. Damn all of this public information.

Somebody might want to check into that.

This is not to say that there is any validity to what could otherwise be an unsubstantiated rumor.  You know, like claiming that racial “code words” are being slipped into our political lexicon so as to activate the sleeper crazy cells to attack the press and or Obama (as if we are to make some distinction there).

Reporting rumors of a McCain affair – good enough for the the New York Times.  Reporting on John Edward’s now completely substantiated affair – heaven’s no – it might damage the town!
