Calm down, my post title is just a rhetorical question.
Since yesterday, my Inbox has been bombarded by emails from irate readers demanding that I take down a picture that every blog and tabloid newspaper has associated with the infamous Vera Baker — Barack Obama’s alleged mistress.
Interestingly, I have not heard a peep from Irene Schwoeffermann herself.
Irene S. is the woman misidentified by many as Vera Baker, the alleged mistress at the center of a cheating scandal that threatens to derail Barack Obama’s presidency.
A few readers accused me of “interrupting” Irene’s life by posting her picture, which is hardly likely since Irene S. is already a public figure, and surely she knows by now that her picture is everywhere.
It remains a mystery why Irene S. hasn’t reached out to the many blogs and tabloids that has posted her picture over the past two years. Maybe she likes all the attention?
At any rate, loyal reader John H. did a lot of digging last night and he came up with a trove of information on Ms. Irene — who shares a few coincidental similarities with the elusive Ms. Baker. In fact, their backgrounds are so similar that at one point we both thought she might even be Ms. Baker… Lol.
The similarities in their backgrounds include: both attended Howard University, and both worked for the Black Caucus (see picture of Irene S. above). which might explain how she got mixed up for Baker in the first place.
We still don’t have a clear photo of Baker since all of her pictures have been scrubbed from the Internet, and she’s been exiled to the Caribbean island of Martinique where she remains in hiding — at least until Obama is voted out of office in 2012.
