First lady Michelle Obama is complaining on the fundraising circuit about the evils of money in politics -- while also asking Democratic Party supporters to “write a big fat check” before the November elections.

“So, yeah, there’s too much money in politics,” Obama said during a fundraiser Thursday in her hometown of Chicago. “There are special interests that have too much influence.”

However, she quickly pivoted and urged attendees at least twice to write a hefty check.

I suspect her 2016 campaign for senate from Illinois will be one of the best funded ever.

I don’t see this beast taking on any role that involves scrutiny; early retirement is much easier. Beyond that, black candidates are no longer shoo-ins for Dem nominees; the Hispanics want their share of the pie.

You know they’re going to have a few billion socked away by the time he leaves office. I’ll lay money on it that he’s skimming taxpayer funds and gaming the system. That’s how his type rolls. I’ve investigated guys like him for over 20 years. they all think the same. Me, me, me...all the time...

I think she’d be a lock in Illinois. The Chicago Mob would love to flush Mark Kirk and MooseChelle would have Blowprah and the whole national media doing a love-in.

It would be the most disgusting campaign since Baraq 2008.

“So, yeah, there’s too much money in politics,” Obama said .... “There is something you can do right now today to make a difference and that is to write a big, fat check. I kid you not,”

She’s as crazy as a bedbug. Look at her eyes: Crazy eyes.

It's only the money of people who oppose them that is the problem. Money of people who support them is not a problem at all.
