I have nothing against Michelle. The media tells us that she’s pretty, she’s smart, she’s accomplished, and I’m sure she’s charming. As her husband said about Hillary Clinton, she’s “likable enough.”
OK, I’ll admit that I didn’t particularly like her comment that the first time she was proud of America was the night Barack was elected. Surely there was a time in her first 45 years before then that she felt some pride in America. How about when the 1980 Olympic Hockey Team beat the Russians? How about when we put a man on the Moon? How about when we passed the Civil Rights Acts?
In any event, I always thought she could have congratulated her husband for being elected President of the nation without gratuitously insulting that nation. If she truly thought so little of the nation that she’d never before been proud of it, how could she be proud that he’d been elected President of it?
And how could the incoming First Lady be so rude to the country? A more gracious statement still true to her feelings might have been something like “I was so proud of America that night.”
Also, I think the media fawning over her beauty was a bit overdone, to the point that it seemed racially condescending to me. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but to my eye she is not as beautiful as Jackie Kennedy was. But, for that, blame the media and their eyes for their contrary judgment, not Michelle.
As for Michelle’s considerable accomplishments, one was indeed comparable to Jackie’s — it was to marry well. Michelle married a bright, rising politician by the name of Barry Soetoro.
Soetoro had been born to an 18-year-old white woman and an older Kenyan man who abandoned them. He grew up in Hawaii as a mixed-race boy of a white mother.
Soetoro became interested in politics, particularly the ethnic type. In that, his white mother — his only parent that was present — was a liability. Being half Black was an asset, but only a half-ass-et.
With a touch of the self-promoting genius he was to display throughout his career, he changed his name to “Barack Obama,” taking his missing father’s Kenyan name. And he decided he “identified” as all Black.
In one of the self-promotion books he later wrote, he even stated in the preface that he had been born in Kenya. When that became problematic — nay, disqualifying — in his campaign for the Presidency, he “explained” that the preface had been written by someone else and he’d never read it.
Uh huh. It’s surprising that the press let him get away with that explanation, until you realize that this same press later dismissed the Hunter laptop as fake and assured us that Joe Biden was sharp as a tack.
This guy now going by Barack had a talent for riding the early 2000s wave of liberal white guilt. Chameleon-like, he could be what he really was — a mixed race kid from Hawaii — or, on demand, he could drop his g’s and be shuckin’ and jivin’ with the bros.
Hillary might have been likable enough, but Barack was Black enough. And in the year 2008, Black was better.
Barack had foreseen it all, early on. And he had already orchestrated the show.
There was one problem. Barack had several girlfriends before he got married. The thing in common was . . . they were white.
That presented a problem because this guy had consciously reinvented himself as a Black leader with a white personality, someone who could garner Black votes with his Blackness while garnering white liberal votes with his whiteness.
So Barack let the white chicks go. Bad fit for his career ambitions. He substituted a bright young lawyer, Michelle. She was ambitious, almost as much as he. And very much Black.
He married her. He won the Presidency. He won the adulation of the media. He won that thing he imagined was ever-arcing toward him — history.
Now in his post-history, his post-presidency, his post-Blackness, and perhaps his post-marriage, he might have won Jennifer Aniston. The rumors are thick that the two of them are an item. Liberal “fact-checker” Snopes says there’s “no evidence” of it, even as they reference numerous insiders who swear it’s true. (When Snopes wants something to be false, the evidence of it is always deemed not evidence. What do they want, a stained blue dress?)
Moreover, there’s a dog that didn’t bark. Michelle was mysteriously absent from two big political events — the inauguration of Donald Trump and the funeral of Jimmy Carter, both of which were attended by everyone who’s anyone, but which Barack attended alone.
The only question now is, will he change his name back to Barry Soetoro?

Here’s something really creepy.
The Obama Youth – Young children being coaxed into singing praise to Barack Obama
(net worth in 2023 is reported at $70 million):
There’s something about Mr. Obama’s Harvard experience I feel hasn’t been fleshed out. He has “written” two books and one was promoted by his literary agent in a booklet in 1991 that read as follows:
“Born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii”
To begin with, let us agree that Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii, okay? Let’s also make the reasonable assumption that Obama’s professional literary agent in 1991was a capable one, and as young Mr. Obama’s agent, she had ample access to the author for direct consultation prior to the book’s promotion. Now that all that’s out of the way, let’s examine what this means in terms of the above claim in that 1991 promotional booklet.
What it says to me is that young Mr. Obama had (possibly still does) problems with just being born in the United States of America. Mr. Obama must have felt that he had to be something “more” special, as if being an American-born black man was too cheap for him. In order for Mr. Obama to be exceptional and stand out in the crowd, he obviously believed that being an exotic, Kenyan-born successful black man was measurably better than being just a successful black man born in the United States of America. And, for a President of the United States, what leads me to this logical conclusion is “extraordinary”.
Michelle has said many times she has no interest in politics, and I will take her at her word. She probably hates meetings, appearances and hob nobbing. Let alone making decisions and placating voter groups.
My guess is she will pass on such activities when she has a chance to go shopping. Until more information is forth coming, that is my take.
Yes and in so doing shows little respect for others in attendance or those being honored revealing the selfish unworthy person she has always been. What other previous first lady was so insulting to others? Her lack of attendance after she received so much from people of this country is despicable. If a white first lady did this, imagine the outrage.
I’m surprised she still shops after the trauma she suffered that time when a short white woman asked her to please grab something from a high shelf. Or maybe the white woman didn’t say please. Either way it was a blatant example of systemic racism. According to Michelle anyway. I’m sure it had nothing to do with Michelle’s height, only her race.
Glenn, was MIchelle a DEI wife? Michael was a tranny wife! Remember Joan Rivers? She blew the whole farce to TV reporters, then died under mysterious circumstances a couple of weeks later (her throat spontaneously combusted).
Michael’s conversion was openly discussed in the early 2000’s by people who remembered him from Oregon State University, where he was on the football team (probably played tight end). Then his sophomore year, he transitioned to Michelle.
Obama’s so-called girlfriend at Columbia, when queried about their romance, replied “girlfriend? Everybody knew that Barry was gay!” At that time Barack went by the name “Barry Soetero”. His birth father was almost certainly Frank Marshall Davis, who was part of the enclave of Communist activists who relocated to Hawaii from Chicago after things got too hot in Chicago. Hillary’s family also were part of the Chicago communist agitators, which included Saul Alinsky (“Rules for Radicals”)
Bill Ayers was part of the Chicago cabal as well and the actual author of “Dreams from my Father”. Analysts have run computer comparisons of the diction, word choice, grammar, etc., of “Dreams from my Father”, and it matches perfectly with BIll Ayers’ writing style, not Obama’s (who hasn’t written much otherwise).
Larry Sinclair went public about his relationship with Obama, or rather his gay assignation with Obama, which was arranged by a taxi driver, in a book titled “Barack Obama & Larry Sinclair: Cocaine, Sex, Lies & Murder” Sinclair died shortly after the book was published in a freak accident: His car was T-boned by a truck.
Do you have a source for Sinclair having died?

One story was that Reverend Wright had a side hustle of procuring very black wives for Chicago politicians who were “on the down low.” Beards, in other words.
