Michelle Obama: If You Disagree with Barack, You're Probably Confused
Townhall ^ | 8-10-12 | Kate Hicks

Posted on 08/10/2012 12:40:20 PM PDT by tcrlaf

Michelle Obama spoke with the Tom Joyner Morning Show about the things people can do to get out the vote for her husband, and actually offered a rather insulting portrait of those who are undecided -- as well as inaccurately portraying the race as between grassroots Democrats and a handful of rich Republicans.

The most damning passage:

"All of us know that one person in our lives -- that one knucklehead nephew that's not registered to vote. That one neighbor who's not really paying attention. That one coworker who's confused about how Barack's tax plan will benefit that individual. Those are going to be the conversations that make the difference. And in this election, we're gonna be making a choice about how we want our democracy run. You know, do we want our president selected by people rolling their sleeves up, knocking on doors, or are we gonna hand it over to a couple of people who write big checks?"

So in reality, if you disagree with the president, you're just "confused about how Barack's tax plan will benefit" you, and it's up to your friendly neighborhood Democrat coworker to enlighten you. It's like she lives in a world where reasonable people couldn't possibly disagree with her husband's approach to government -- no, they're just knuckleheads. Right.

Oh First Lady Michelle, you remind me of another character from history, one by the name of Marie Antronette.

"...You know, do we want our president selected by people rolling their sleeves up, knocking on doors, or are we gonna hand it over to..."

Who? These people below?

Yeah. We are the confused ones.

If you really, REALLY want to see the depth of the "confusion" of the typical Obama voter, watch John Ziegler's "Media Malpractice: How Obama got Elected and Palin was Targeted".

You can watch it HERE

The video itself is good, but the real meat of it, why the mechanics of what the liberal media did is played out in one of the features of the documentary.

They went to a line of voters, and interviewed a bunch of self-identified Obama voters waiting to go in.

They asked:

What party currently controls congress?
I don't know
Republicans
Republicans
Republicans
Republicans
I don't know

Do you know who Barney Frank is? How about Nancy Pelosi? Harry Reid?
I don't know
She's pretty cool
I don't know who that is
I don't know him
Don't really know Barney Frank
Nothing
Who?
Don't know him
Who is Harry Reid
Don't know him
Who is he?
I think she is a fair lady. (Ziegler: Is she a republican or Democrat?) I don't know.

I don't know him
I don't know her
I don't know him either.

Which of those people wore clothes that their party spent $150,000 on? Which has a pregnant teenage daugher?
Sarah Palin
Sarah Palin
Sarah Palin
I know that would be Palin...ahahahahahah...they made a big deal about that...but ya gotta look pretty, right? Heheheheheh...

Palin
Palin
Sarah Palin
Palin
Sarah Palin
Palin, Sarah Palin
Sarah Palin
Palin
Palin
Hah. Palin

Which candidate said they could see Russia from their house?
Oh, that would be Palin
That woman, Palin
Sarah Palin
Palin
Palin, Sarah Palin
Sarah Palin
Uh, I can't remember her name right now, uh, Palin
Palin, hahaha

Which candidate claimed to have campaigned in 57 states?
Hahahahahah, Sarah Palin, I don't know
57 States? I don't know, probably Sarah Palin
Fifty...fifty seven states? Hahahahah, I have no idea...57 states? I have no idea.

I don't know, was that Palin? Hahahahahah
57? I don't know...Sarah Palin?
57 states? Hah. That sounds like something Sarah Palin would say. Hah.

McCain
I would put that on Palin

McCain

Which candidate won their first election by getting all of their opponents kicked off the ballot?
I don't know. That sounds like something Sarah Palin would do, but...I don't know.
Sarah Palin?
Oh my God. I don't know. Who? (Ziegler: Obama.) Are you serious? Wow!
Huh. Sara Palin?
Oooohhhh. Was that McCain?
I don't know. I don't have a record of that.

Hmmmm. Uh, that probably had to be McCain.

Which candidate said that Obama would be tested in his first six months by an international crisis?
I don't know
McCain
I don't know
McCain
McCain
McCain
McCain

Which candidate had to quit a previous presidential campaign because they were found to have plagiarized a speech?
Uhh...probably McCain
Wowwwwwww! Uhhh...I don't know, but that's exciting...who? (Ziegler: Joe Biden.) Are you serious? Shut up!

Don't know that one.
Which, ah, eh, uh, I don't know.

Which candidate said that his policies would bankrupt the coal industry and make energy prices skyrocket?
Uh, I don't know.
Maybe Biden, he has a way of putting his foot in his mouth. (eh heeehehheeeheeeheee)

I heard that. I haven't really looked into that one, but it did make headlines.(Ziegler: Did you find that troubling?) Uhh...I don't have a lot of trust in the media to know where that was coming from.
McCain
McCain
McCain

Which candidate said that the government should redistribute the wealth?
I don't know
(Ziegler: So you agree that the government should redistribute the wealth?) Yeah.

Redistribute the wealth? I like it. From what I know about it...which might not even be the right thing, I like it.
To redistribute wealth? I don't know, it sounds like a good thing, but....heheheheheheheheheh

What do you think of Bill Ayers?
I don't know. I don't know who he is.
I don't too much know anything about him.
Bill Ayers? I don't know.
A washed up terrorist.
I don't know Bill Ayers.
No, I don't know him.
Yes.....but.....I....don't know the details. (Ziegler: Where do you get most of your information?) NPR...and...PBS

Where do you get most of your information?
Mostly from the news medium. TV, CNN...uhhh...Bill Maher is a good one.
I don't watch a lot of media. Yeah.
Um, I don't have a TV, so I read the New York Times, but...BBC, I guess, if I watch TV, CNN. (Ziegler: Do you watch MSNBC?) Yeah, it's pretty cool. I like...John Stewart, heheheh...(Ziegler: You get your news from Jon Stewart sometimes?) Yeah...the Colbert Report....

I think I'm not as informed as I thought I was. Umm...but I still don't think I would change my vote.

Note: If you can't tell, I thought of all of them, "Erika" had the best opportunity to see the truth someday, and she had the funniest responses. There was a tie between two I disliked the most, and who were the most pretentious snotty liberal kool-aid drinkers..."Janan" and "Adarsha". The rest of them were just dumb, ignorant Obama voters.

so you ever wonder how the Obama’s explain their dad's illegitimate birth, his white mamma's background and his ‘to to’ gram to those two girls??? will he let them experiment with drugs too? humm just wondering...

and I wonder in their ‘spoiled’ minds, how they feel about their dad's ‘history’ can he explain to them why he keeps his grades sealed and his background under lock and key?? one day they will grow up and begin to ask questions..

A big yawn, but it sounds like Michelle has her Rules for Radicals down.

"Alinsky RULE 5: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions. (Pretty crude, rude and mean, huh? They want to create anger and fear.)

Game On Obamas!

Finally something I can agree with the FLOTUS about, although not for the same reason. I never had much respect for the “undecideds” that the media always holds up as the defenders of democracy every election. Frankly they’re the most ignorant in my opinion.

For the LAST time, IT IS NOT A DEMOCRACY!!!

Yes, but leftists like Michelle Obama will forever misapply the word "democracy" to describe the American system of government because in Marxist theory, power is based on a rising up of "the masses."

The most thorough answer came from James Madison, who said that our form of government is an “Extended Limited Commercial Federal Democratic Republic.”

I thought I was well versed in American history, but I never heard of that exact quote from Madison. What is your source for it?
