'I wanted to show her that I was a culturally sensitive guy': Obama talks about his first date with first lady at Art Institute of Chicago...full title

Before their first date, Mrs Obama saw a picture of him in their law firm’s directory; she decided he had a big nose.

She later declined his first request for a date, saying it would be inappropriate. However, Mr Obama persisted, and the couple has been married for nearly 20 years.

In a 2009 interview with CNN, the first lady said that Mr Obama took her to a showing of Spike Lee’s Do The Right Thing.

‘Probably, by the end of the date, it was over,’ she said. ‘I was sold.’

So you think having an image depicting Michelle Obama as an ape-like humanoid on FR is a good idea?

I assume you are okay with the other images of her as a wookie holding a cheeseburger over her head?

There's no need to over-think these things.

If Obama had a Son, he would be a hoodlum like Mookie.

Oh that's right, the real Mookie Twitters people's addresses so some New Black Panther thug can Murder them.

Is there a credible source for this story? Sounds pretty major if true.

I share your anger towards the Obamas and the other race baiters, but the image you posted is in bad taste. The wookie pics are comical and outlandish. Your image is much nastier. It smacks of an effort to link blacks directly to apes.

Do you think Michelle Obama looks like an Australopithecus?

*sigh*

That image was from a parody story about some fossils discovered: http://peacemoonbeam.typepad.com/bighairynews/2012/03/possible-new-human-species-discovered.html

I do understand both of your points, but I am far past giving a rip what the PC police think when my country is going down in flames at the hands of the communist bastards in the White House, Congress and Judiciary—with the “Obamas” acting like flippin’ DICTATORS!!! Sorry, that’s just the way I think about this!

I think Mrs. "Obama" is UGLY, period.

No need to sigh. I’m not the PC police. Far from it. The fact that the pic was from a “parody” on somebody’s blog is irrelevant to the discussion. Can we agree that images of blacks as apes are not a good idea for FR?

That was not supposed to be an “ape,” but an “early” human, which is, of course, completely preposterous to those of us who understand that “evolution” is a lie. However, I understand your point as you made it. I just happen to not give a flip. The wookie image is no different. Both images are the same—fictional.

Good point, before the first story broke of the affair, I would have bet my house that John Edwards was a homosexual. I guess you never know.
