What Michelle Can Teach Us

eagle57? I think I love you! LOL! Thanks for your sensitive and thoughtful comments about Michelle and ALL past First Ladies, Republican and Democrat. What a sweet man you are, and no "vagina envy" either, lol!I am a middle-aged white American woman who couldn't agree with you more and I am casting my vote for America...therefore I am voting Obama/Biden! Hugs to you eagle57! :)

From your posts, I can easily imagine that it was something besides your T-shirt that pissed them off enough to call you a racist. It's a really easy picture to imagine.

Are you a racist? No? Then WTF do you care what somebody called you? SPINE UP MAN.

Nearly 99% of whites voted for Bush and Kerry in the last cycle (and no one thinks that was racist), making the statement essentially true, and this yet-another post-of-trash.

I wholeheartedly agree.

Michelle Obama is a fabulous role model. She can be intelligent and articulate, without envying her husband's spotlight. She is feminine without being weak and strong without being masculine.

Cindy McCain, on the other hand, IS a drug addict. She stole from her charity to support her drug habit. She is also the epitome of the socialite trophy wife, living an extravagant lifestyle funded by inheritance.

Why don't you read before you write? Sen. Obama actually stated that he wanted to develop clean coal, which would be far more beneficial to the environment. I don't see anything to indicate that it would destroy the coal industry. As a matter of fact, it would do more to encourage the consumption of coal as a clean energy resource. Perhaps you are having trouble reading past the Republican propaganda?

So you don't think 10 billion dollars a month wasted on a war hurt the economy? That's 10 billion a month for over 5 years - and that's not counting Afghanistan. And you want to blame the democrats who had 2 years in congress. Boy - this site is full of delusional comments

I typically skim without posting, but I just couldn't let this pass. Illinois already had a law which provided for children born live during an attempted abortion. This law duplicated that provision AND tacked on other provisions which restricted the rights of the mother. Perhaps you're pro-life and that's acceptable to you. But, do not confuse the issue the way so many confuse the fact that both parties refused to fund the troops--not because of lack of patriotism but because of a difference in opinion as to how to achieve the ultimate means (appropriateness of timetables).

Finally, what is wrong with Black (women, men, children, or any other minority for that matter) expressing anger? It is a human emotion. Minorities are human. The escalated and inaccurate depictions of anger are much more problematic than the typical expressions of anger. If you've ever told a child it's okay to be sad or cry, you should also know that it's okay to be angry.

Puulllleeease! This guy is a dyed-in-the-wool Socialist, with communist leanings. He has ALWAYS sought out Socialist sand radicals as his friends and mentors. He even admits this in his writings. The only thing his friends from college agree with about him is that when he spoke to a group of people, both sides walked away thinking he was on their side; a true con-man. This guy will only be a centrist till he gains office; then the gloves come off and you'll find out his true colors. We're in for a helluvaride, and it's all downhill.

I can. And you could too if you had actually researched his life instead of taken the radio-man's word.

The first (and for me, only necessary) point is that he rejected the "our team" approach to politics, but I'm sure others can give you their favorite points. Unless of course your "empty posts" have pissed them off. Obama rejects fear and the "50%+1" strategy that most professional pols have been caught in lately.

Like I said, that's just one. Lucky for you the first one's free.

go to fact check .com and ask your questin

This is laughable.

So by your terms that makes 100% of white people, who have voted in elections before 2008 racist. It's just crazy. 100% of white people voted 100% for white people before this year!

Finally there is some deviation from the norm, and you expect, what! That the AA community wouldn't, having finally gotten a GREAT candidate, go out and pull the lever for him. Crazy. Just like your "Racist" theory. Just plain crazy!

Michelle Obama is a thinker who has a right to be 'angry' about the ugly 'crimes against humanity' endured by blacks in America but she is not an 'angry' person. Michelle Obama had some ambition and got a good education and a good career. That seems to bother a lot of lazy white bigots.

Also, Michelle Obama chose a quality man to be her husband and the father of her children. She's done everything right.

What have you or your daughters achieved? Nothing compared to Michelle Obama.

Michelle Obama is going to be a terrific First Lady. And you and your ilk can't stop her.

I guess you much rather have a woman like Cindy McCain who stole another woman's husband and then steals drugs from her foundation to support her addiction. That's the role model we need in the White House for sure. Give me a break.

Look at yourself.. your comment in upper case..you look quite angry to me.

AND I WILL PROVE HOW ANGRY SHE IS BY YELLING! SEE HOW SHE DOES! IM NOT ANGRY! ITS HER! </snark>

I really treasure how my wife believes the world will stop rotating when I'm gone. It makes a lot of sense to me that Michelle would feel the same way about her husband (and father of her children).

Yes, it is the type of woman we need in the white house along with Barack. A president who will speak openly and honestly to the American people (ALL AMERICAN PEOPLE). As I said b/4 if you've always, always and ever, been proud of your country, then you're either naive or stupid.......sorry!!!!

I'm curious....were you and your family proud of America during the time of segregation, before the Civil Rights movement, when women were not allowed to vote, when folks who stood up for equality were beaten, killed, or jailed? OR, when the US govt instigated a false plot to lead our troops into Vietnam, or when our troops and dollars were lead into Iraq on doctored CIA reports?

Just curious...........were you proud of all of that? Or, were you one of the ones who stood up and said, "this is wrong, I disagree w/ what my government is doing." ?

What a wonderfully ironic post!

You say that the author (and others) "continue to make race an issue."

Then you ask, "how will having black people in power be any better then white people or Asians?"

Who said it would? We said Obama would be better.

iT'S ABOUT TIME YOU GET OVER YOUR RACISM ISSUE; don't know how old you are but by 2030 there will be more non-whites than whites in America!! GROW UP!!!!

I agree with your thinking . Thank goodness some people are still thinking straight.

I don't need M. Osama to teach me anything, I certainly wouldn't want to develop her attitude problem. I hope we don't have to see her parading around trying to teach anyone anyhting.

To all of the tired lies and innuendo you add another.

Obama is not race-baiting. It's patently false.

Thank goodness the old John McCain finally stood up and asked his supporters not to. Maybe you didn't get the memo.
