She should’ve waved a Bible if she wanted to make a bold statement for basic human rights.
Saudi Arabia has no freedom of religion and even has a death sentence if a non-muslim dares enter one of their segregated cities.
BTW Hillary and Pelosi submitted to wearing hijab.
“Not even wearing black? “
If there were a reason, my guess it would be she is clueless..
Yes, I think Michelle is the reason Obama hasn’t gone even more overboard. I don’t think she wants either herself or her daughters to be subject to Islamic law. She’s having way too much of a good time to want to become a bag of laundry with eye-slits.
And for once, that’s a good thing.
So Laura Bush and other women do it, but when Michelle does it, it is bold?
This is from their own article.
“”Obama’s choice is not without precedent. Laura Bush in a visit with King Abdullah made the same choice in 2006.
Condoleezza Rice also wrote in her 2011 book about Abdullah offering her a gift of a black robe and veil that she refused to wear.
But Obama is much more associated with clothes and fashion, she sets trends and boosts brands. And in the age of social media, she has an unparalleled global audience.””
LOL! I agree with you. I can’t stand her either but the other option is even worse.
And if she does that, it will just be a matter of time for the rest of us.
She is visiting a Mosque in that photo, all the women cover their heads in that situation.
She is living in a sort of vacuum, denial, whatever psychologists call it, acting offended by those with money and muslim while she is married to same.
