Of course, to say nothing of the Caucasian men & women that the black terrorists John Allen Muhammad & Lee Boyd Malvo shot at gas stations & other locations in Virginia & Maryland. And the race of which black Police Chief Charles A. Moose of Montgomery County, MD withheld (and his Caucasian leftist wife attempted to deny) until the public outcry became too great!

Sheesh...

I've never seen her until today. She looks bitter. Not "First Lady" material in my opinion.

as a black man . . . Barack can get shot going to the gas station,? Michelle Obama said

The only people I remember involved in gas station shootings were white people getting shot by the DC sniper who was a "disgruntled" Black muslim.

[Screamname]

Why would he get shot at a gas station when Hillary said Ghandi works at gas stations?

“I don’t lose sleep over it because the realities are that . . . as a black man . . . Barack can get shot going to the gas station,” Michelle Obama said in the interview, set to air Sunday night. “You can’t make decisions based on fear and the possibility of what might happen.”

I think what she meant to say that he's more likely to shoot someone at the gas station.

[3AngelaD]

Given Obama's record of achievement, it's the only card she has to play.

[lilylangtree]

For cryin' out loud!

Yeah...if he's geting gas in a black neighborhood. That's generally where blacks get killed doing things like going to a gas station.

[ishabibble]

Good grief, what a spiteful and calculating woman. MZ. Obsama is an excellent example of black racism, which is a long overdue discussion in this country. If her husband could be killed at a gas station, what are the odds that the killer would be a black man? I am a white woman who wears expensive clothes, jewelery, and drives a high end car. How likely is it that I could be killed at a gas station? Black thug culture is more dangerous than anything else going on in the U.S. these days.

The acid test for true racists is that they never can flip over and see the other side of the coin.

In Chicago? Give me an effing break. He stands a far greater chance of getting shot by another black man than getting shot because he's (half) black.

She did NOT "play the race card."

She was responding to a legitimate question from Steve Kroft.

It has been well-known that Alma Powell was dead-set against Colin running for President for fear of his life.

[PA-RIVER]

My cousin, a white Police Officer responding to a robbery, was shot by a black man robbing a gas station.

Yes, the black man was eventually shot as the fellow officers returned fire.

So yes, I can attest that Obama's wife is correct in her assertions.

[Spok]

Obama "Osama" Hussein Barack and Michelle "Teresa Heinz Kerry" Barack are going to make this an interesting election.

[pissant]

Having his wife do his dirty work for him. LOL. At least Jesse is man enough to be a race pimp himself.

[Eva]

Well, Michelle, I don't know whether being half Black has anything to do with it, but its true that more Americans have died in some of our US cities than have died in Bagdad, this past year. I think that Philadelphia had something like 457 murders last year. Maybe, your husband should rethink his call to bring those troops home.

Obama’s Wife Plays Race Card on ‘60 Minutes’

Just trying to keep up with the Joneses Clintons...Hillary & her minions have already played both the woman & mother cards...& once she "realizes" it, she'll play the cheated-on-wife card!

[U S Army EOD]

Sorry folks, but I agree with her point of view. He could indeed get shot at a gas station if he went there to rob it.

[Southside_Chicago_Republican]

The race card in various forms is front and center in Obama's campaign. His supporters in the MSM for weeks have written on the subject of "is America ready for a black president" and more than hinted that if Obama is not elected, it would be only because of the racism of whites. As if it would be impossible to oppose an Obama presidency on any other grounds.

I didn't see the "60 Minutes" interview, but they played part of it on the radio this morning. Regarding the question, "are you black enough?" Obama related that when he walked around the southside of Chicago, and visited his barbershop and played basketball, the folks down there would never question his blackness. He also said that he felt black enough when he had to catch a cab. I call BS on that one -- especially any time in the past 15 or 20 years. Maybe as a young man he ran into the fear that some cabdrivers have when picking up black riders in certain neighborhoods, but I seriously doubt that Barack Obama -- Harvard Law student, law professor, state senator and U.S. Senator, has run into that anytime recently.

[4yearlurker]

Obama's wife is a race baiter. I remember here in the Pittsburgh,PA. area about 4 or 5 years ago a black guy went gunning for whitey. One poor slob was shot dead in his car waiting at the McDonald's drive through.

What a stupid statement from a stupid woman.

[TexasCajun]

Barack can get shot going to the gas station,”

And odds are by another Black man!
