Sorry, I did not know about that but watched the first couple of parts of the reboot this week out of small curiosity.

I think I may have mis-wrote something. It is the Abita beer, the best beer in to whole wide world.

I heard when traveling, Michelle has as many as 76 assistants. I don’t know if that’s fact or myth. Would not surprise me. She may have at least a dozen people assigned to
‘maintain and replace’ her undergarments as needed (, which means, as selected). Five to inventory and rotate the Boob-belt collection. 20 or more concerned with her hair, styles, weaves, wigs and toupees.

Is it even true???

Partially, yes. Source: The White House Historical Association

Construction on the President's House began in 1792 in Washington, D.C., a new capital situated in sparsely settled region far from a major population center. The decision to place the capital on land ceded by two slave states-Virginia and Maryland-ultimately influenced the acquisition of laborers to construct its public buildings. The D.C. commissioners, charged by Congress with building the new city under the direction of the president, initially planned to import workers from Europe to meet their labor needs. However, response to recruitment was dismal and soon they turned to African American—enslaved and free—to provide the bulk of labor that built the White House, the United States Capitol, and other early government buildings.

Stonemason Collen Williamson trained enslaved people on the spot at the government's quarry at Aquia, Virginia. Enslaved people quarried and cut the rough stone that was later dressed and laid by Scottish masons to erect the walls of the President's House. The slaves joined a work force that included local white laborers and artisans from Maryland and Virginia, as well as immigrants from Ireland, Scotland, and other European nations.

Fictional but plenty of slaves were handed over by winning tribes that beat losing tribes.

It is TRUE. They discovered a while back it took 76 Egyptians to move a two ton...block of stone.

If that’s how she feels, move the heck out of the house taxpayers fund.

I have looked at that AWESOME cartoon quite a few times for a good chuckle.
Only NOW did I notice the 'penis bump' in Michelle's dress. ROFL!

It is said that most stereotypes reflect a true fact about the subject.

I believe it was the first episode of the original `Roots’, if you look at the costumes of the east African muslims who raided Kunta’s village and put the villagers in stocks, then herded Kunta and his fellow villagers to the ships, they were dressed a lot like our own pResident as a young man visiting Kenya and trying on native garb: turban, loose fitting tunic with criss-crossing straps.
It won’t be too soon when these finger-pointing, grifting, hypocritical, AA, mau-mauing ingrates vacate Pennsylvania Avenue.

Moochelle would own slaves in a heartbeat if she thought she could get away with it.

Game, set and match. You have the right of it.
