"Why'd He" is starting rumors

Let's quell and dispell a cheapshot rumor before it even begins to get traction. A handful of anti-Michelle Obama types are actually accusing the would-be First Lady of saying "Whitey" over and over in a stump speech. She actually asked repeatedly "Why'd he..." in regards to a host of poor decisions made by President Bush during in his two terms in office.
So, perfectly fair questions such as:
Why'd he cut folks off medicaid?
Why'd he let New Orleans drown?
Why'd he do nothing about Jena?
Why'd he put us in Iraq for no reason?
...to an already biased ear might start to sound like:
Whitey cut folks off medicaid?
Whitey let New Orleans drown?
Whitey do nothing about Jena?
Whitey put us in Iraq for no reason?
...which would be completely perposterous speech for a political hopeful (and even as incorrect grammatically as they'd be politically). Michelle Obama is smarter than some are ready to believe, or may ever believe, so the only ones making damaging remarks in this matter are idiot instigators who can't use a lick of common sense when listening to a smart person make a basic campaign speech.
