I assume with "Michelle" in the title I can skip the barf alert.

[Dr. Ursus]

True,like murder and robbery laws!

[Pikachu_Dad]

Still are. Only now, black people are responsible fir passing them.

[laweeks]

Nothing like taking shots at our country. This worthless fat grifter just can’t keep her big mouth shut, can she?

[Jimmy Valentine]

Is she going to discover steam next? I am sick of this whole racial grievance crapola Get over it or die out

[Diogenesis]

Discrimination?

Under the undocumented Tyrant, gangs of blacks
attack, rape and murder whites from Coast to Coast,
directed by Holder and the DO”J”, as they know
they are above all Law under the Tyrant.

[oblomov]

Barack Obama got scholarships? Which ones?

[PapaBear3625]

And now there are laws that mandate discrimination against white people (”affirmative action”).

[leapfrog0202]

What a load of crap! She’s trying to act like dumbo never knew where the next meal was coming from because he was raised by a single mother that “struggled”. Wasn’t he raised for much of his life by well to do grandparents? And now we’re told he had college loans? Never heard that before. I think this is one big pile of garbage she’s making up. Also I’ve read many times that her family was solid middle class.

[Coffee... Black... No Sugar]

Women? Like under Islamic Law?

[G Larry]

Yes Michelle, and those laws were almost all written by DEMOCRATS!!!!!

Who do you think DISARMED BLACK AMERICA?

[mazda77]

In the past, the intent was straight up and obvious. Today the same, and worse, is being perpetrated to keeping their “people” on the plantation by means of hand-outs, not hand-ups.

[bergmeid]

Dear Chinese people, if you love her you can keep her.

[wonkowasright]

She is of course right in this particular. As a historical fact there were laws allowing the discrimmination against blacks in this country.

And slowly but surely, America changed. We got rid of those unjust laws. And today, just 50 years later, my husband and I are President and First Lady of the United States.

The US Constitution itself expressly allowed for the buying and selling of black men and women. It was changed to fix the egregious errors it contained. That was the first step. Then a war. But it wasn't until the days of MLK that blacks got the right to vote, to equal schools, to ride in the front of the bus etc. It was the changing of those laws that allowed within 50 years a black man to become president.

I refuse to accept that as a conservative we must hate blacks or object every time the first lady makes a factual statement about US history. We should be willing to admit not only the greatness of the USA but also the sins of the USA.

[dforest]

How many days has Mrs Clown and her entourage of 70 been in China now? I guess this whole expensive jaunt was to stir up racial hatred in China now and lie through her pie hole.

[GeneralisimoFranciscoFranco]

I guess she's not too familiar with how the Chinese were treated here backinaday, is she?

[muir_redwoods]

Yes and all of the Jim Crow laws were written, voted in, signed, enacted and enforce by democrats.

[reg45]

While she is there in China, I hope that she mentions that the California Democratic party wanted to use this same affrimative action to discriminate against people with Chinese ancestors.

[T. P. Pole]

It’s like Pavlov. Some key words just set them off.

It is a ton worse on the other side. But that doesn’t excuse the behavior on our side.

[ilovesarah2012]

What the hell does that have to do with talking to the Chinese other than to try to make America look bad?

She is nothing but a race-baiter like her husband. I despise them both more than words can say. They are a disgrace to what was once a great country.
