Full Title: Michelle Obama talks about the 'proud burden' she and her husband carry in the White House as she remembers fallen teenager at Chicago high school graduation

First Lady Michelle Obama drew on her hometown connections and personal struggles from college and the White House during a high school graduation speech to the classmates of an honor student gunned down in 2013 near the Obama family home.

A boisterous crowd of thousands attended commencement for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. College Preparatory High School on Tuesday in Chicago and heard Obama speak.

'That's a burden that President Obama and I proudly carry every single day in the White House, because we know that everything we do and say can either confirm the myths about folks like us - or it can change those myths,' she said.

Over the past 6 and 1/2 years, I've seen the confirmation of those "myths", in spades:

the laziness,

the attitude of entitlement,

the arrogance,

the lack of introspection,

the inability to process facts,

the amorality,

the self-deception, and

the lying.

True. They have no damn idea what a burden really is as neither have lifted anything heavier then a pen to cash Gov checks, and now they sign their charges over to US THE TAX PAYERS. These two have not one drop of class. They are users and losers.
