"He was biracial. I was like, okay, what's that about?" Imagine if the wife of a Republican candidate made a similar comment.

Seems odd that would be a new concept to her. I mean, it isn’t uncommon.

I would rather see Michelle Obama as First Lady than Bubba as First Laddy...............

He was biracial. I was like, okay, what's that about? heh..wait till he becomes POTUS and you'll find out exactly what that's about.
And then it's a funny name, Barack Obama. Who names their child Barack Obama?"
Uhhh...it's Barack Hussein Obama. That should help you Michelle with your first question.

Something tells me that Michelle’s law degree is more valid than Hillary Clintons. Michelle Obama did not have her husband giving her clients like Bubba was doing as Governor of Arkansas as a kickback.

He was biracial. I was like, okay, what's that about? What a bizarre statement. She makes it sound like it was a choice he made that she didn't approve of.

I’m from the North. There are a lot of mixed race couples and children here. It certainly isn’t something that would cause anyone to ask WHAT’S THAT ABOUT?
To: jdm
And then it's a funny name, Barack Obama. Who names their child Barack Obama?This statement is a dead give-away that she is pandering to the white crowd. Since when does a black woman suggest that another black person has a funny name? I mean is that not a black cultural thing to give children an unusual name? I mean, who ever heard of the name "Beyonce"?

"Who names their child Barack Obama?"A Muslim.

A guy who answered “The European Union” to the question “What countries are our allies?” is brainy?

"He was biracial. I was like, okay, what's that about?" Naw, she was just incredulous he'd never heard of the 'one drop standard' of racial identity in the South....

A Muslim parent.

Note that she did not say:
“He is in favor of post birth abortion of living children. I was like, okay, what’s that about?”

LOL! The Post explains away a racist statement from Obama with Hers is a lively riff, delivered with flair, and it draws smiles. Rush should have fun with this today.
