Michelle Obama gave a candid view Saturday of the challenges and emotional toll of being the country’s first black first lady.

Obama, speaking to graduates at Tuskegee University in Alabama, described insensitive media questions and derogatory remarks from political pundits that she said have kept her up at night.

“You might remember the on-stage celebratory fist bump between me and my husband after a primary win that was referred to as a ‘terrorist fist jab,’ ” she said.

Gee it is so tough to get zillions of paid vacations and fancy dinners and on and on and on. How tragic to get to have such a high title and all that attention. Gee it must be rough.

Michelle Obama wouldn’t be happy if she was empress of the world. Her color has nothing to do with it and her unhappy marriage has everything to do with it. Fancy clothes and vacations do not make up for a loveless marriage, and a couple of petulant teenage girls don’t help matters.
What is i with Democrats and their marriages of convenience?

Even if you live in the White House and your husband is the leader of the free world (albeit a lousy one), you can still claim victim status! Kids it private school — victim status! Back to back cushy vacations with extensive security and transport in private planes — victim status!

In effect she’s telling them that no matter where they end up,no matter how high up the ladder they climb, they will never be anything victims.

There really is something wrong in her head. She’s been indoctrinated so heavily that she is incapable of critical thinking, or perhaps she is incapable of critical thinking altogether

What a way to fire up and inspire a graduating class!

“I am miserable and get no respect and I am FLOTUS with degrees from Harvard Law and Princeton. What chance do y’all have?”
