Signaling a new approach to a second term, first lady Michelle Obama is adding her voice to the political debate over her husband's top legislative priorities.

Her brief remarks on immigration, coming at the top of a speech to the National Council of La Raza that focused largely on childhood obesity, seemed to be an effort to inject a human element into a debate that has at times created a swirl of impersonal rhetoric.

"In the end these issues are about one simple thing: They're about achieving the American Dream," Obama reminded the crowd. "They're about building a country where no matter who you are or where you're from or what you look like or who you love, you can build a decent life for yourself and an even better life for your kids."

Today, Obama even exerted her motherly influence, urging Hispanic community leaders to join the campaign to implement her husband's controversial health care law.

"Simply passing the Affordable Care Act was not the goal. The goal is getting folks to sign up for the insurance so they stay healthy," she said. "The minute you get back home from this conference, we need you to get out there and educate everyone you know about what health reform means for them."

The GOP Reps like Gowdy, Issa, Cantor, Bonehead, Ryan Gollette are setting up the phony dreamer scam which gives back door amnesty to millions of large uneducated families ,

Last week , NRO quoted Gowdy crying for the blueberry pickers and how they needed to legalized.

Cantor did the poor little kids scam.
These frauds are K st front men.

Al this IRS stuff is sideshow !
They are working with the Dems behind close doors folks.

Sounds like Moochie is considering a run for Senate.

Obama can’t get the “job” done so both the POTUS de facto Jarrett and Michelle are gonna ram it down our throats one more time. Obamacare is a bank breaker and unconstitutional regardless of what Justice Roberts ruled...The Immigration Bill has not been posted as promised....Michelle should stick with her expensive trips, clothes etc.

Osama Obama is on record as saying that CanadaCare is his ultimate goal for this country.Barney Fag....sorry,Frank....said,after OsamaObamaCare was passed,that it was step #1 on the march to CanadaCare.The “common folk” of Canada can wait as long as 6 months for heart surgery.I'd bet the clothes on my back that Miss Hairy Armpits never,for the rest of her life,is forced to wait 5 minutes to have a mole removed,let alone for heart surgery.

Why is Moose wearing an ankle bracelet? What did I miss?

That’s a lot of meat in motion.

Cut Chewbacca some slack. She’s just bored—the next obama vacay doesn’t start until Aug.10. It makes her feel like something other than what she is: A grifting, useless eater, food nazi/nanny and statist super Commissar.

Umm...thought it was a leash. Prevent her from chasing a piece of wagyu beef off the stage.

I've always wanted to hear about health care from someone who is six-and-a-half axe handles across her butt.
