The problem with Michelle Obama is that she can’t really understand why all us poor people don’t just roll over and let the super couple fix the country for us. Dammit, don’t we realize they are smarter than we are? Don’t we know how oppressed they are?
Michelle Obama, more than her husband maybe, has been fed a steady diet of bile about this country and she swallowed it all up like a baby bird. You can see the influence of Reverend Wright and those like him all over her. This is the woman who, previous to the anointing of Saint Barack had never found a single reason to be proud of this nation.
“For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country because it feels like hope is making a comeback.” – Michelle Obama
I don’t know if she is telling the truth, or oif that was some lame attempt at rhetoric but in either case is shows us the disdain that Barack and his wife hold for us as a nation. Essentially, they consider us stupid, violent racist oppressors.
Now since Michelle insists on making statements in the public forum, you would think they would be able to handle us wondering about those statements. Nope. Saint Barack has put us on notice – we better lay off the wife or he’s gonna get whatever it is he gets when people don’t roll over and kiss his ass.
“But I do want to say this to the GOP. If they think that they’re going to try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful. Because that I find unacceptable,” he said.
It makes sense of course. I doubt anyone has actually held Michelle Obama responsible for her rhetoric her whole life. She has lived in a pretty insular little world surrounded by like minded “activists” and mentors. It must be a hard adjustment for here here in the outside world. Of course, Obama isn’t really prepared for it either.
“The more I see and hear Barack Obama, the less I think of him as a man and as a candidate. He hides behind his race as if it was his momma’s skirts. Nothing is ever his fault or the fault of the positions he has taken on issues vital to the safety and security of the United States. It’s either people who don’t vote for him are racists or war mongering fascist neocons who refuse to get with his new program of not being so beastly to our enemies. He is thin skinned, quick to anger, overly sensitive, and a whining, sniveling child who can’t take criticism like a man and respond as an adult.” – Rick Moran
I don’t mean to be so hard on her. She has a really, really hard life. Hell, her and Barack can barely stay sane as it is. I think the kindest thing to do would be to avoid subjecting them to the pressure of the presidency.
“Now we know why, in her adult life, Michelle Obama has never been proud of America until now. As Byron York reports, her life here is such a struggle. And not because of the demands of the political campaign. As she puts it, “I don’t know what I would do, even if we weren’t running; I don’t know what I would do as a professional without having that kind of support system [provided by her mother who lives nearby].” It is that support system, she confesses, that “keeps me sane.”
It’s easy to see her point. The Obamas, according to Michelle, spend roughly $10,000 a year just on programs for their kids — “piano and dance and sports supplements” and “summer programs and so on and so forth.” And, having had the audacity to quit “corporate America” the Obamas must do so on Barack’s salary and book money, Michelle’s salary of $317,000 (up from the $122,000 she made before Barack was elected to the Senate), and whatever she can scrape together from serving on corporate boards (her abandonment of corporate America apparently has not been complete).
But even with everything the Obamas are providing for their kids, there’s “a constant sense of guilt.” “It’s guilt,” Michelle emphasizes, “feeling guilty all the time.” The guilt, as far as I can tell, stems from having to pass her kids back and forth with Barack: “We do split that day, okay, you’ve got [the kids], I’ve got them.” – Power Line
Honestly, my heart bleeds for her.
