Good read, as Steyn always is. Thanks for the post.

Bump for the SteynPost!

Another good read from Steyn. However I must take issue with his first couple of sentences. “She looks fabulous” . Oh Please give me a break. Steyn needs glasses. She would be the most glamorous first lady since Jackie? Rubbish! Steyn is really off on this.
He his right about Michelle Obama being an affirmative action baby. I would be willing to bet a months pay against a can of soda that Barack is also an affirmative action baby as well.
On the other hand we all know George W. Bush would not have got into Yale with his grades and test scores if his father did not have connections.

They really have had her on a short leash as of late. She could turn out to be one of his biggest liabilities in this campaign.

Bingo! That'll leave a mark.

The stuff that we’re seeing in these polls has played out my whole life. You know, [I've?] always been told by somebody that I’m not ready, that I can’t do something, my scores weren’t high enough.

First: Sweety, try working on your grammar. You always sound like you are still in high school.

Second: There are probably several million white kids in this country every year wanting to go to Harvard, Yale, MIT, Caltech, etc., who hear these same things from their high school counselors. And the counselors are correct 95% of the time. But those kids didn't have affirmative action to get them into those schools and to get them hired by the corporate America you so easily despise.

What an ungrateful churl you are!

>>And yet the two most important figures in Obama’s adult life exemplify all the tired obsessions he was supposed to transcend.

Worth saying again.

Thanks for the post.

OK, when I stop laughing, I'm going back to read the part after this line.

I still can’t understand why she gets so much money from a hospital for doing so little. That jump in pay had to be related to a government ‘earmark’ Barry funnelled to that hospital. This really should be investigated.

Steyn is a national treasure.

[SueRae]

Long but a great read. Madam O is a liability. I am positive it is she who found the Rev. Wright first and brought Obama to that church.

[chickadee]

Mrs. Obama’s whole life seems to be Afro-centric - from writing her undergrad thesis on her perceptions of race at Princeton to her current job. As long as the U.S. makes it possible to get college degrees and to have 6 figure careers based on focusing on racial grievance, it will continue to get more of the same and the nation will never get past “race”.

[Gritty]

Excellent!

[Malesherbes]

The intro is a bit much, but the article is great Steyn. I hate to carp but the likes of Michelle’s caboose hasn’t been seen since bustles went out of fashion.

[mc5cents]

Which Barack Obama certainly could have been: He’s no tired old race-baiter making a lucrative career out of grievance-mongering, like Jesse Jackson, President-for-Life of the Republic of Himself.

LOL! Steyn is treasure.
