Michelle Obama Touts Her Own Independence: I Made 'My Own Choices About My Body'

First Lady Michelle Obama is thankful for her life. At the More magazine Impact Awards at the Newseum in Washington, D.C., the first lady credits her good life--and independence--to education.

"Growing up -- and I remind these girls all the time -- I wasn’t any smarter, I wasn’t more talented than they are. But instead of having to work to support my family, or being married off to a grown man and forced to bear children before I was ready, I got to go to school so I could support myself, so I could make my own choices about my body and my life," the president's wife told the crowd at the award ceremony.

"And none of us would ever accept anything less for our own daughters and granddaughters. We wouldn’t tolerate it. We would never accept a life of dependence and abuse for our girls. We would never allow their bodies to be violated or their potential to be squandered. So we have to ask ourselves, why would we accept this fate for any girl on this planet?

“Married off to a grown man...”?
What is this, an episode of the Beverly Hillbillies?

No, an episode of the Bel Airabs.

I think Mooch just slammed down some muslims there.

Most likely unwittingly.

First Wookie has the claws out.

What the hell is she talking about? Did family belong to one of those sects that broke away from the Mormons or something?
...instead of having to work to support my family, or being married off to a grown man and forced to bear children before I was ready, I got to go to school so I could support myself, so I could make my own choices about my body and my life"
Public education, at least through the 12th grade, is taxpayer funded and publically mandated (via truancy laws) in this country. She didn't "get" to do anything that her parents weren't already compelled by law to allow.

It seems she has a thing about moozlums lopping off clitoris. Is that PC?

And she only “got” a law degree because she was in the affirmative action program, not because she was really qualified.

In Texas, you can quit public school at 17 if you pass the GED or enroll in a GED program-even at 16 under certain circumstances.

Of all the pictures of our first lady, that is one of the worst. Worst.

And she has how many servants to order about? (A thread from yesterday) Just think of her all natural look when she gets up from bed!

Would could stomach the thought of sleeping with her? I’m sure their kids are test tube babies.

So that means I can go to Mickey D’s and get 60 McNuggets? After all, it’s my body and my choice.

With her little grabby hands and her butt sticking out like that makes her look like a praying mantis walking away.

You just gotta love the clothes too.

Has anyone noticed that blacks seem to love the colors green and purple? Start looking at some pics and you will soon notice these colors are prevalent in black culture.
