EXCERPTS
During a news break, we got but a glimpse of Obama, radiant and sophisticated, touring the Alhambra palace in Granada with youngest daughter, Sasha. Then it was back to our regularly scheduled programmed descent to the bottom of the cultural barrel.

Meanwhile, the real first lady is out charming the world, an ambassador of goodwill wherever she goes. Nothing but love and respect for her during recent visits to Mexico, Russia, Haiti and Spain.
That has to be at least part of the reason perceptions of U.S. leadership worldwide have improved so much since the Obamas moved into the White House -- up from 34 percent in 2008, under the Bush administration, to 51 percent in 2009, according to the U.S. Global Leadership Project.

Then there's the outright disrespect and racism that she's been subjected to as the nation's first black first lady. Last year, for example, a prominent Republican activist from South Carolina called an escaped zoo gorilla one of Obama's ancestors.

PING!

Wow, this is one heck of a piece of propaganda!
These people are sick.
In all likelihood, Courtland Milloy is a member of the Journolist listserv — and has therefore forfeited any credibility he may have once enjoyed.

Reuters Pictures 14 hours ago U.S. first lady Michelle Obama is greeted by Princess Letizia before their lunch at Marivent Palace in Palma de Mallorca August 8, 2010.
I saw that show about a bunch of self absorbed gals ..even the brunette had blonde roots.
Shakiing my head.
Princess Letizia is “radiant and sophisticated.”
He just wrote this because he thinks Michelle is bootylicious.
That’s a nice picture of super hot Princess Letizia meeting David “Big Papi” Ortiz!
Excuse me, but I am of the opinion that the last sentence in that excerpt is a LIE. Even if not, after EIGHT YEARS of “Chimpy McBushhitler”, you can POUND SAND, you metrosexual PUNK!!!
Are you kidding? The Spaniards were so disinterested they didn’t even turn up to watch her arrive at the palace. Now that is disinterest.
These poor reporter creatures are trying so hard to make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear. It would be sad; if it weren’t so funny watching them try their best with all the lying praise they can summon up.
Yeah! Dictators, Communists and Islamofascists just LOVE Obama (as opposed to being AFRAID oF Bush)!!! That’s what I call success!!!/sarcasm
That is funny.
