What Would a First Lady Michelle Obama Be Like? [Michael Reagan] (Must Read)
Newsmax ^ | May 8, 2008 | Michael Reagan

Posted on 05/11/2008 9:11:52 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Here we go again. After being subjected to eight years of the collegial presidency of Bill and Hillary, when we were told that when we got Bill we got Hillary as a bonus, it looks as if we are facing another twofer: Barack and Michelle.

Effete liberal Democrats are all but canonizing Barack Obama, who they see as one of their own — cool, detached, impressively intellectual — all in all what Pat Buchanan described as something fresh out of the faculty lounge, where lofty thoughts abound and contempt for the great unwashed is hardly concealed.

That may be an apt description, implying that the Barack Obama who scorned ordinary folks in small towns who, he sneered, cling to such lower-class crutches as religion and guns, is above the distractions of the madding crowd.

It does not, however, fit the other half of the new twofer, Michelle Obama, who far from being above it all is down there in the trenches acting like the flame-throwing liberal activist she is. To know her is to know what her husband really believes.

As I have told my listeners of my radio show, if you want to understand how Barack Obama uncomplainingly sat through all those fire-breathing sermons without so much as stirring uncomfortably you need to understand the way husbands and wives practice their religion these days.

The men in the pews for the most part are passive, while the wives tend to be passionate. In most cases husbands are there because their wives have dragged them there. Chances are that while the women sit in rapt attention to the words of their pastor, the husbands are snoozing, blissfully unaware of what the reverend is preaching.

If they do get in the White House, they will be shuckin and jivin down the hallways. This country isn’t ready for that and we have been fools for letting it get this far.

Our souls are broken and these two are going to fix them? First time I’ve heard a politician (or his co-conspirator) promise to do that.

I am ASSUMING that there HAVE to be strict laws governing what ANY First Lady can do the interior of the White HOuse:
I would HATE to hear the plans Michelle Obama has for it when she allows the fever to grip her mind and actually SEES herself as First Lady.......
THe Clintons didn’t alter much, but then again, they tried to steal a lot of valuable “traditional” stuff that had been there many decades, stuff whose presence they “tolerated” as forward-thinking progressives, but whose actual monetary value and undeniable cache they recognized and couldn’t resist possessing.....of course they also left a mess, AND decorated the Christmas tree with miniature dildos and other naughty ornamentation.

Yup. They also promise to turn you from “dainbramaged” to
braindamaged. BTW, is that a salute to Bob Nelson, a great comedian who inexplicably disappeared from the national stage?

Lets not whistle past the graveyard.

If Hillary gets on the ticket - and don't say that she can't. She can. - we are in deep trouble, from the top to the bottom.

Obama will be a very formidible candidate in his own right.

“This country isn’t ready for that..”

Perhaps you and I are not ready for that, but have you seen what the cat has been dragging into the Damn Party lately?

They might though. Fortunately the Pres doesn’t have all the power that some imagine he does. He could have a totally Dem congress and get nothing done at all aside from closing some military bases.

Michael Reagan is being charitable and a gentleman in this article.

Mrs. Obama will be a national disgrace if she is First Lady.

I think he hit the nail on the head. It's Michelle pushing Obama. She's most likely the hate monger behind the empty, affable vessel that is Barack. He's a puppet, a dupe. He is her chance to gain power.

In fact, they are probably emulating Bill and Hillary. Why else would he charge her with instituting health care reform?

It's ironic that Hillary was beaten by someone (Michelle) exactly like herself but more extreme.

impressively intellectual

I'm sure impressed that Obama knows all 57 states in the Union...
