Even dressed to appear incognito, she pulls the “don’t you know who I am” crap.

Newsflash: Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe that it is part of the "regular course of life" of tall people of all colors (Mrs. Obama is 5-foot-11) to be prevailed upon to reach high on behalf of those of us who are vertically challenged. These are not odious "incidents" of racism between slaves and masters. They're matters of common courtesy between equals.

Being 6' tall, I'm always pleased if someone asks me to reach something on a high shelf. What effort is that? About 10 seconds of my time? It's my little good deed for the day.

“Why was she in Target, especially the laundry detergent aisle, in the first place? I seriously doubt that she does her own laundry.”

She was playing a game. She wanted to know if she walked out in a disguise among the great unwashed if she would be recognized. She was, in effect, playing Halloween.

I am short and I frequently ask for help in getting something for a higher shelf in stores. I would NEVER ask her. Her angry attitude is readily apparent from the ‘looks’ on her face. I was brought up in a more polite and decent America. I would have asked a nicer person.

Still....US taxpayers will be paying for them and their family’s security forever.

Also, “O” and MO will hit the lecture trail-making millions and they’ll be with us on EVERY single magazine cover and will be the ‘go to’ authorities for campaign and election news until the day they die.

The nightmare will NEVER end.

I mentioned in another thread regarding a black woman who thought it was racism for a white guy to move her computer out of an empty seat on a subway that I believe the race grievance industry is in the process of jumping the shark.

A majority or people in this country would never believe asking a tall person to reach for something for you is a sign of racism. And neither does Mrs. Obama. This is an attempt to fuel the race industry. And especially when she told that story once before as something funny. Because there isn't enough of real racism to feed this industry, they have to invent grievances

Being 5'2" tall when some of the shelves in the store or well over 6' high, many a time I have asked a passing shopper if they could help me. Never considered the color of their skin when asking, just their height.

Can't recall one person saying no to me, when asked for help.

Considering that both versions of the Target story were given publicly, it would be interesting to see if anyone decides to call her out on her bullshit.

But she can continue to tell lies like this because the media will never call her on it. Cf. Hitlery’s whopper about dodging bullets in Bosnia.

I fail to understand why Obama chose the valet fable over this obvious display of white racism when he was briefly employed by Mel Brooks:

“Hold it! The next man that makes a move, the n****r half gets it.”

If you tried to walk up to the first lady in public several big men with guns would have you flat on your ass. This is the secret service’s job.

Michelle Obama is a liar and not a very good one. But would someone explain to me why what she is saying if true is a racial incident. Over the years I have been asked to get things off the top shelf for short people that were white, black and or brown. I have also loaded heavy objects into baskets of older and frail people. They were of all colors. Does that make the brown or black person guilty of reverse racism?

The fact that this is the example of racism that Michelle Obama uses makes one think that she has seen little to no racism in her life. My boss (pharmacist) grew up in Mississippi in the 60s. He can tell you about real racism, Michelle Obama can not! Relative to Mississippi, thankfully those days are gone forever.
