He has no claim to the struggles of the Civil Rights Movement. Any suggestion to the contrary is repugnant.

YOU are talking about her looks.

I am talking about her choice of clothes and how much skin she shows.

When you are First Lady, your choice of dress is mentioned all the time.

Remember how the press mention Jackie Kennedy’s clothes? Her choice of clothes was wonderful. She was admired for the way she dressed.
Now, that lady was good looking also and I am not saying Michele Obama is not, only that she shows way too much skin for a First lady.

He didnt even bother to go to his Grandmother’s funeral. Went over a couple of weeks later and tossed her ashes in the ocean. Not a tear shed.

Well what the hell all she did was raise him from the time he was 10, and she was white. I understand.

"In 1957, Height was named president of the National Council of Negro Women, a position she held until 1997. During the height of the civil rights movement of the 1960s, Height organized "Wednesdays in Mississippi",[5] which brought together black and white women from the North and South to create a dialogue of understanding."

Never heard of her either.

After hearing him LIE about the law the Governor of Arizona just signed, I ABSOLUTELY BELIEVE WITH EVERY CELL IN MY BODY THAT BARARSE UHBAMA IS A RACIST OF THE HIGHEST ORDER.

Anyone who misleads others ON PURPOSE to incite racial strife is, in my book, a COMPLETE RACIST.

Uhbama now joins the ranks of jesse jackson and al sharpton as a first class race baiter and a LOW class citizen.

She got tired of the ugly photos on Drudge and had her face frozen into that permanent smile.
Next time on Drudge, we will no doubt, see that same smile.
