Michelle Obama has rescheduled a high school graduation speech after the students complained that her appearance would prevent many of their friends and relatives from attending the ceremony.

The First Lady was scheduled to speak at a combined graduation ceremony for five high schools in Topeka, Kansas, on May 17 but will now be speaking at a different 'senior recognition day' ceremony the day before.

'Once we learned about the concerns of some students, we were eager to find a solution that enabled all of the students and their families to celebrate the special day,' said the First Lady's communications director, Maria Cristina Gonzalez Noguera.

Poor woman must feel rejected. Oh well, another vacation should cure that.

She never seemed to mind putting tofu and all that other crap in our school childrens’ bellies.

WH is not looking for any opportunity where a public protest can spring up.

For the first time since 2008 I’m proud of my country.

Just think, public high school students told the First Lady of the United States to bug off and not disrupt their special day.

Audits pending for all who signed the list for excluding her from the ceremonies.

On the same morning this happens, I read Eric Holder has cancelled his plan to speak at a police academy graduation ceremony in Oklahoma later this month. Apparently, many citizens and some police officials were plannning to protest the irony of our nations Top Cop now in contempt of court for refusing to supply requested data in the Fast and Furious scandal (among multiple other ugly sins). Maybe people are regaining their personal Mojo and courage.

Very happy. She sure was selfish to schedule it in the first place.

You can fool most of the people some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time.

ROTFLMAO. That was so funny. But so true. She better use all the vacation she can because she only has a little over 2 years left of this fantasy life she has made. Reality will be staring her in the face here in January 2017 when they suddenly have to pay for their trips again.

I’m hoping the tabloid divorce rumors are true, myself. People can diss the National Enquirer all they want, but they were the first and the only reporter of “The Silk Pony’s” extramarital affair and baby.....

I’m hopin’ they’re right.
