After midterms, Michelle Obama teams up with…penguins (plugs DreamWorks movie)

Now that the midterm elections are over, Michelle Obama is joining forces with some new partners…penguins.

The first lady is seen chatting with one of the waddling, computer-animated stars of the upcoming DreamWorks movie, “Penguins of Madagascar,” in a clip released Wednesday by Got Your 6, a non-partisan military veteran empowerment campaign.

“I want to talk to you today about a group of people that inspires me everyday: our troops, veterans, and their families,” Obama says directly to the camera, before being interrupted by the tuxedo-colored aquatic friend. “Excuse me, Mrs. Obama. We’re a little tired of the Seals getting all the good missions — what about us penguins?” the “Madagascar” character says.

“As a matter of fact, I have a top secret mission that’s perfect for the penguins,” Obama replies, handing the Arctic birds a folder.

“Now, let’s light the fuse on this mission,” one of the penguins declares, before a narrator urges viewers to learn more about Got Your 6. Michelle Obama is co-founder of the Joining Forces initiative, which she launched in 2011 with Jill Biden to create job opportunities for vets and their families.

DreamWorks and the rest of Hollywood try so hard to make it appear that the Obamas care for true American values.

Got Your 6 is a faux- veterans support group designed to give lefties cover.
Nothing more.

The only difference between the Worst Lady mooch-elle and a crack-dependent welfare mom is where she lives.

She is a frigging liar..her and her husband has continued to put the military down..If you are so conserved then give them enough money to live on instead of them having to get food stamps......the illegals get more benefits than the military..

BTW THE MAKERS OF THIS FILM MUST NOT KNOW HOW MUCH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HATE THE QUEEN AND HER JOKER..I doubt they will make much money on that film.

“I want to talk to you today about a group of people that inspires me everyday"

It inspires her to pig out on lobster and Kobe steak and take multi-million dollar vacations.
