When conservatives get desperate for derogatory material with which to bash President Obama, they generally make bigger asses of themselves than usual. For example, the Daily Caller, a right-wing rag run by Fox News host Tucker Carlson, just published a shocking expose that will surely topple the President and his evil cohorts.
The Daily Caller’s investigative reporter, Patrick Howley, who famously uncovered the Case of the Scandalous Hat, and the plot to Gobble Up Gun Magazines, is on the hunt again for officialdom’s dirty linen. Howley’s credentials are bolstered by his experience as a violent right-wing thug who admitted to infiltrating OccupyDC for the purpose of undermining it. And with that trophy on his mantle, he has now discovered an ominous link between the First Lady and an executive at CGI Federal, the company that built the troubled ObamaCare website.

It seems that Michelle Obama attended Princeton at the same time as Toni Townes-Whitley, who went on to become a senior vice president at CGI. While there is nothing in Howley’s article that proves that these two women knew one another, the accusatory tone is unmistakeable. After all, how is it possible that a graduate of a respected Ivy League university would otherwise manage to secure employment as an executive of a prominent, multinational corporation? Howley’s reporting on this, if anything, did not go far enough. He could easily have implicated the entire Princeton class of 1985 in some sort of criminal conspiracy with the Obama White House. But perhaps the most revealing part of his article is this (emphasis added):
“Toni Townes ’85 is a onetime policy analyst with the General Accounting Office and previously served in the Peace Corps in Gabon, West Africa. Her decision to return to work, as an African-American woman, after six years of raising kids was applauded by a Princeton alumni publication in 1998.”
It would have been nice if Howley had elaborated on what other options Townes-Whitley had to return to work as, if not an African-American woman. Perhaps she could also have returned as an Anglo-Prussian Hermaphrodite. Those Princeton grads can be exceedingly versatile.
In addition to ferreting out the fact that two women who may not have known each other in school, and who still may not know each other today, are linked tangentially by a company that does business with the U.S. government, Howley also managed to regurgitate an already debunked myth that the ObamaCare website cost $678 million when it actually is estimated to have run at about $70 million according to the Sunlight Foundation. So Howley was only off by 90 percent.
This is typical of the quality of journalism practiced by conservative ideologues who have no respect for the truth and spend their careers trying to slander their perceived political enemies. [Note: The story was also re-posted at the Fox News community web site and Fib Factory, Fox Nation]. Howley is an obvious hack with unresolved issues of hostility. And he works for Tucker Carlson, the most notorious loser in the right’s media echo chamber. So we can expect more of this sort of hilarity in the future. And lord knows we need the laughs.
I agree, we can only sit back and be entertained by it. It is so ludicrous it is funny. It just shows how desperate these people have become to paint everything, without exception, this President has done or tried to do.
I agree, he is by far one of best president”s ever. I am not sure which of his achievements has them more upset. Most likely this ability to not have one thing stick to him . . . something DuPont has been searching for in cookware for years. Nanuq, the welfare
check will have a little extra something next from your narcissistic pal.
God. How do these people sleep at night? All they do is lie. Day after day. It is so ridiculous. I stopped correspnding with my 50 year old sister because she buys every one of these ‘facts.’ She is sure the President was watching the Benghazi attack in real time and screaming “Stand Down!” so no one would help. You really can’t fix stupid.
They sleep in belfries at night, hanging upside down by their feet. If sleeping in daylight, they use coffins.
Rae, you should show more respect towards our president and his alleged partner-in-crime, I mean wife.
Mark? Most journalists are proud to use their last name. Your article is inane insane. I don’t know the truth regarding this matter and it’s unlikely that I’ll find it in your article or any of the right and left media outlets whose only interest is to propagate whatever agenda they carry. However, it is a news situation that needs to be addressed because of its magnitude, people potentially involved, and the possibility of severe unethical conduct if not criminal behavior.
Sally, you’re absolutely right. Stupid is as stupid does.
So what? This president constantly talks about crony capitalism, back-door loop holes, tax evaders, out-sourcing to china……..etc. etc. etc. They just did 3 of the 4. And you say so what? Bush and Cheney supposedly did this very same thing with Halliburton and and low-info’s like yourself ate it up and ranted for years about. Youre a hypocrit!
Uh, Josh, I think it was one of the blues, three of the reds, and the green every other day. Try not to get this mixed up any more. The results are not pretty.
Neither are fools…
If you’re looking for entertainment on this subject – this is pretty funny:

Fox news is so desperate for material against Obama, it is laughable.
The problem is, their viewers are so brainwashed to believe any and all propaganda put out by Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch that is is truly sad. They are the same brain absent cretins that hang on every word of O’Reilly, Hannity, Levin, Limbaugh, Coulter, etc etc etc. regardless of how obvious it is that they are lieing.
Still in denial?

Nope. All that proves is that the Townses took a photo with the Obamas. It doesn’t prove that they were friends, or that they had any ongoing relationship. And more to the point, Daily caller didn’t even provide this much “evidence,” which is the point of my article.
She made frequent visits to the WH and spent Christmas there with the Obamas in 2010, but it’s all fantasy to the Koolaid drinking Liberal Sheeple:

Here no evil speak no evil of your sacred cow moron in chief.
Jim, do you expect anything other than blind following from Mark – he is Not capable of taking a position that doesn’t 100% support his master. He LOVES BHO and everything he does. When Mark bows east – he is looking to Washington DC and his messiah – his own private Mecca.
He is a blind follower. Questioning authority isn’t the approach you’ll get from him. Everyone gets pictures with the president and first lady – We all have that ability, we just need to ask I’m sure – so you’re “evidence” is no different than any other citizen’s access to the president.
