First lady Michelle Obama is challenging assertions she has forcefully imposed her will on White House aides and says people have inaccurately tried to portray her as "some kind of angry black woman."

Has she inserted herself any more than any other first lady?

Any more or any less is a call I just won't make. At this point in time, I don't really care about lampooning other first ladies such as Hilary Clinton although Cankles has provided such a wealth of material.

I’m not lecturing anyone.

Sure you are.

I’m just stating my opinion.

I’ve a right to do that, correct?

Absolutely. However, the provision of a "SOAPBOX" is not an entitlement or a given and the expectation that others may also have opinions that won't vary from your own is unrealistic.

Personally, I think I’m a hoot most of the time.

I'm really glad that you yourself find you yourself funny.

And?

If you're as much of a hoot as you claim to be, you might want to try to re-apply some of those knee-slappers you've been saving up for a Michelle Obama thread. Like this one.

“You were never ceded authority to presume, at least by me, and so you can talk to the hand as far as I’m concerned.”

But you presume the authority to tell me to talk to your hand? Grow up.

I presume authority to speak for myself. And that is what QUOTE as far as I'm concerned. UNQUOTE means.

Perhaps English is just not your first language. As I said above, I speak for myself and no one else. I don't presume any rank or authority. That's why I'm not in the habit of wandering onto threads and admonishing others on their choice of topics. I do however, reserve the right, much like yourself to offer my own opinion, when and where its possible to do so. There is always the ability to make a choice to join a thread or not.

You see Julia, I am now making the choice to leave this one.

Have a nice day.

I want to give you an apology. You are right.

I think I took out on you what I have seen on many Michelle Obama threads here and that wasn’t fair to you.

I hear you about the busy body, dopey trips...But what really bugs me is the slush funds she set up via Barry through HHS.

I'm kind of out of energy explaining just how bad what she has done is. I've done a lot of research (just came about the orig info by serendipity) and have tried to share the news. But, nobody ever seems to be interested. It is indeed a grifter scheme the woman is running. We are talking the “Let's Move” b.s. It is a definite slush fund running through HHS. I'm not going to waste time and space listing the details, as it hasn't made an impact, when I found the info 4 months ago.

Frustrating. There is a story here with Mrs. Obama, and it ain't as tame as most think. Not pathetic trips and $15,000 a day make-up artists. I'm talking in the mega billions.

I had never thought to describe her as an “angry black woman” - but now that I know that it bothers her so I think I’ll start.

Angry Black Woman, ABW
