It wasn't. The alleged statements include some fictional "quotes" and some bastardized "quotes." FIRST, the FICTIONAL quotes: The 1985 thesis, entitled Princeton-Educated Blacks and the Black Community, was written under her maiden name, Michelle LaVaughn. There is NO occurrence of the word hatred in the thesis. There is NO occurrence of the word ineradicably in the thesis. There is ONE occurrence of the word racism in the thesis. It appears within the cited title of a source publication in footnote 1 on page 7: "1 Pierre van den Berghe, Race and Racism, (New York: Wiley), 1967: p. 35" Her maiden name was Michelle Robinson. Her middle name was, and remains, LaVaughan. Her signature on the thesis is "Michelle Robinson." The full printed name is Michelle LaVaughan Robinson. An attack paragraph states: She seems to justify those feelings with what she claims to see on the other side of the issue: Predominantly white universities like Princeton are socially and academically designed to cater to the needs of the white students, comprising the bulk of their enrollments. Michelle added in her thesis that to whites at Princeton, it often seems as if, to them, [I] will always be black first. Another attack paragraph states: Findings show that some respondents did experience a change in their attitudes over the periods of time indicated in this study. By studying respondents who did change, it was shown that respondents' experiences while attending Princeton caused their identification with Blacks and the Black community to increase as their identification with Whites and the White community decreased. However, after Princeton, respondents' experienced the opposite change in attitude; their identification with Blacks and the Black community decreased as their identification with Whites and [63] ----- the White community increased. Thus, these findings suggest that respondents who experience change as a result of their Princeton experiences are likely to identify less with Blacks and the Black community in comparison to Whites and the Whites community. It is important to note that it is impossible for me to generalize these findings for all Black Princeton alumni because the sample for this study was much too small to make any kind of generalizations. Therefore, I am only able to draw conclusions from these findings for the respondents to my questionnaire. This is brought to all as a public service to educate the Oh. And on the Cindy blamed knee and back pain, and the pressure of the Keating Five scandal. Aw heck, there's no pressure in the White House. Cindy could talk about her drug addiction. But her income tax returns - now that's just getting too private. The Michelle Obama thesis is available online in four parts at Politico since February. Johan Goldberg noted on 2/19/2008 that Princeton would not release it. Politico contacted the Obama campaign and the Obama campaign released it by 2/22/2008.

Thanks. You've told us an awful lot about the intellectual honesty -- or lack of it -- among certain people with whom we are familiar.
