Former first lady Michelle Obama was a breath of fresh air as usual while making a public appearance in Colorado since leaving the White House for a live armchair conversation with The Women’s Foundation of Colorado President Lauren Casteel. But even as poised and graceful as always, Obama touched on some tough topics, speaking out frankly about the hurt she felt from the racist attacks she received while in the White House.
“The shards that cut me the deepest were the ones that intended to cut,” Obama said when Casteel asked her about the trials of being the first black first lady, according to the Denver 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.”
While her husband served as President of the United States, Michelle Obama has been mercilessly been the center of the hateful attacks and comments. She has been called an ape (and everything in between but a child of God), her body size and type made fun of... the list can go on and on forever....

FUMO
Give me a break!! There was nothing but GUSHING over her by ALL the media!!! She was more stylish and classy than Jackie O!!
Man up.
I don’t know who is the bigger whiner, Mooch or illary!
Ya can bear a lot of stuff with the money have made and will make because you were in that White House!
It seems that Moochelle is still carrying that racist chip on her shoulder even after free-loading millions from the taxpayers on junkets around the world for her and her sycophants for eight years.
So, “Sasquatch”, “Mooch” and “Tranny” are all racist terms now?
I am sure Melania feels the same way about the left “racist” attacks on her.
Oh wait... it’s only racist when a wookie on the left is being attacked!
SHUT UP YOU AMERICA HATING MORON!@
Was she clutching her gun and her bible when she said that?
Basically any criticism was racist.
The same with her husband.
Still beating the drums of racial division, I see.
How about you ‘just beat it’, Michelle.
You and husband have done enough damage.
I don’t believe her.
There are still people out there who won’t see her for who she is?
You mean an angry, thin-skinned woman? That’s how I see her, plus a liar and a leftist ideologue.
When the heck did she get bashed at all, much less for her color? Touchy, touchy, girl.
Same ole song and dance from that bunch.
Spouting racism is protected under 1st Amendment, seems to me it’s a social issue. They used racism for 8 years.
Treason however.... Started with the comment, 1st time happy with the US was when Soetoro was elected and continued on for the duration.
Michael must be upset with no trannys in the military.
but the Billions spent on vacations made up for it
Name one “racist attack”, Mrs Hussein. You know damn well the first N word tossed your way would have been front page, above the fold news for 6 months straight..
Hillary was just a plain hypocrite with her sticking by her perverted husband as being something decent.
“A breath of fresh air as usual” l just couldn’t read another word.
How are “ape in heels” and “gorilla” comments “racist”?
