FLOTUS plays race card: Museums are for white people

First lady Michelle Obama used a speech Monday that was supposed to be celebrating the opening of a new museum to instead dig deeper the racial divide that’s been growing ever wider during her husband’s presidency.

“Museums and concert halls,” she said, just don’t welcome non-white visitors – especially children – the way they welcome whites.

Speaking at the new Whitney museum in New York City’s meat packing district last week, Obama said she grew up thinking that museums were not places “for someone who looks like me.”

RE:”One of my favorite South Park episodes.”

Certainly a classic,

At the end Kyle is in the hospital dying from lack of will to live is taken to that amusement park to see Cartman screaming miserable about how things turned out and getting sprayed my mace by the guard, then Kyle says “There is a God after all” and immediately gets better.

The writers really understood human nature and economics.

“The writers really understood human nature and economics.”

South Park is a social commentary, much like Charlie Chaplain’s films were for their time.

In a way, I’m kind of surprised South Park wasn’t driven out of town years ago. The left in Hollywood just took the money, which has been huge. I’m glad it survived, as some are true classics.

Wasn't Mrs Obama's brother the head basketball coach at a major university and is now I believe on ESPN.

I can understand the First Lady's mental distress.. they never had a real chance having been un-welcomed at the elegant or refined features of our culture.

Just think what they could have been if America wasn't so racist.

OMG! How did this woman get a degree from college and get into the WH with an attitude and world view like this. She might as well still be living in the ghetto (or as we say in Texas, the quarter) because if she truly believes this then mentally she is still a slave.
