Michelle Obama's burden ... and ours

Remember how some people used to talk about President Barack Obama’s rise as “post-racial?” With bracing candor, Michelle Obama has begun to open up about how post-racial her White House life wasn’t.

In an appearance at the Women’s Foundation of Colorado in Denver, the former first lady, who memorably advised Democrats “when they go low, we go high,” offered a painful glimpse of how low the insults could go — and how it felt to be on the receiving end.(snip)

“The shards that cut me the deepest were the ones that intended to cut,” she said, according to the Post. “Knowing that after eight years of working really hard for this country, there are still people who won’t see me for what I am because of my skin color.”

Sad, but true. Along with the privileges of the presidency comes a breathtaking burden on presidential families. But so far, only one first family has had the added burden of being African American and facing the prejudices and cheap shots that come with it.(snip)

Yet, despite the many outrages against her and her family, the former first lady remained resolutely upbeat about this nation as a land of opportunity.

“Women, we endure those cuts in so many ways that we don’t even notice we’re cut,” she said. “We are living with small tiny cuts, and we are bleeding every single day. And we’re still getting up.”

“The people in this country are universally good and kind and honest and decent,” she said. “Don’t be afraid of the country you live in. The folks here are good.”

Indeed, most of us are, even if some of us still need to learn a few things — like better manners.

Her real problem is that people see her for exactly what she is, a grasping, entitled, America hating, race baiter who cherishes the victim role like her mother’s milk.

Once more, with gusto...

Michelle spent her public life around Democrats. Of course they’re all racists. What was she thinking?

This racist self-preening criminal should be in prison .

That’s b/c Obama gave her 100 million tax dollars “to teach Muslim girls in Morocco.”

But wait-—the 100 million is kept by the US-based Obama Foundation....to be doled out “as needed.”

(waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

Whaaaaa?? That’s a lot of couscous!

And I’m sure Mooch is preparing lovely poultices right now to place over the Muslim girls’ vulvas after they have most of them cut off.

Jackie O may not have had 4 brain cells. No matter how lovely she looked, she couldn’t beat Wolf Blitzer in a game of Jeopardy Junior.
