Awwwwww, how sweet.

“We welcome you as a daughter of African heritage, and we can call you the queen of our world,”

Well then, she owes it to her subjects to take her family to Africa and rule them!

[GnuHere]

Great - she can stay over there! She’ll be proud of her country.

Nice to see that Mr. and Mrs. Obama have a job available after he leaves office.

Mandela—yo mamma’s queen.

Oddly enough Jerry Nadler was less than kind in his assessment that the president is becoming an absolute monarch.

He wasn’t talking about Obama alone so much as the office of president but I can’t find a reason to disagree with him.

She’s soo, so African, so Swahili, so Simba Ungowa...

[NYCslicker]

Please keep her.

The Left’s policies are more suited to a developing country anyway.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Guess that makes two “queens” in the family.

[chuckee]

I bet Queen Latifah has something to say about that!

[ChocChipCookie]

Awesome! Does that mean they’ll be moving to South Africa now?

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Isn’t that title reserved for the woman with the biggest butt in Zulu culture?

Michelle Obama is not indigenous to the United States.

[9YearLurker]

What a relief it will be in January, 2013, when Michelle’s position and role passes into the able and grounded hands of Todd Palin!

Perhaps they confused her with Barry.

Hmmm......I wonder if Nelson’s ex wife Winnie will give her a necklace?
