Oh yes...Michelle is such an "angry black woman", isn't she?

[MsKandice01]

After watching the events of today, it amazes me now more than ever that anyone would consider Michelle to be this angry, militant, Black Panther-esque woman. Now I understand why Obama said that the attacks leveled against his wife were the hardest thing he had to deal with during the campaign. It makes ME angry to think about it.

She's gracious, classy, smart...everything a First Lady should be. How dare they attempt to smear her the way they did. Disgusting.

1. Well I think that her daughters are as well.... Crap, did you not see those two....

today? Looked like they wanted to tear somebody up IMO.... :sarcasm:

[gratuitous]

4. Got that right!

Did you see the terrorist "thumbs up" Sasha gave her daddy? I'm sure Faux was all over it!

[MichiganVote]

2. Just another useless stereotype.

[Hosnon]

3. As a white male, she scares me.

I trust the sarcasm smiley is not necessary.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

6. As a white female, I was wondering

if maybe you wanted to get together later?

[Hosnon]

7. If that is you, the answer is a categorical

yes.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

9. Oh, sorry.........

No, that's not me.

This is me.

[Hosnon]

11. And a Taibbi quote? Ma'am...I'm married...

Shame on you.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

12. Oh.

So, is your wife available?

[Hosnon]

13. I have as much control over her as I have over myself.

She's partial to blonds.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

14. Oh.

This isn't gonna work out.

Oh, well....................

5. We have

two Harvard-trained lawyers in the White House tonight.

A young (45) friend of mine said he thought - although he only knew them from old films - that the Obamas were like the John F. Kennedys, and I proceeded to set him straight.

The Obamas, I told him, are about five hundred times MORE than all that John and Jackie were.

For openers, they came from nothing. They got their educations via scholarships and loans and hard work. Nothing was handed to them - not a trust fund anywhere.

They both went to Ivy League undergrad and professional schools. Jackie Kennedy dropped out of one of the Seven Sisters, as I recall, and maybe finished her degree at GW, but I'm not sure she finished. JFK was a Harvard boy - big surprise.

They both have worked in the real world, at complicated and meaningful jobs before Barack went into politics. Jackie worked for a time as a roving photographer for the society pages of a newspaper and Jack was - granted - a Navy WWII hero who never had a job before becoming a Congressman, a Senator, and then a President, the route that was intended for his older brother Joe, but became his destiny when Joe was killed.

Compare all those differences between the Kennedys and the Obamas and you see - and my young friend understood - that the couple we have tonight in the White House are superior people, just the kind of folks you want to have a beer with, but then you want to go to work with them, and we are the luckier for all of it.

8. Well put. I totally agree.

[JDPriestly]

16. Serving in the Navy during WWII is a demanding job IMO

[tilsammans]

10. A woman of style AND substance!

Yes, everything a First Lady should be!

[Number23]

15. Aren't we all??

:)

[JI7]

17. where does the "angry black woman" thing come from ?

was it around civil rights or whenever black women decided not to take crap from people anymore ?

[Political Tiger]

18. By the way, where's that "whitey" tape?

:rofl:
