In the coming days, First Lady Michelle Obama will be traveling to South Africa and Botswana to meet with young people from across Africa, including the Young African Women Leaders Forum. In a video message, Mrs. Obama invites young people at home, in Africa, and around the world to follow the trip and join the conversation:

You can join the conversation on facebook and by using the hashtag #YoungAfrica on Twitter. Check WhiteHouse.gov/YoungAfrica for updates from the trip, videos of young leaders, and much more in the days and weeks to come.

Wake me up if she starts tweeting pictures of her hoo-hah - short of that I basically could care less.

Oh...so we’re supposed to be like starving street urchins with our noses pressed to a fine restaurant window where all the patrons inside are feasting on the best there is and all the while we’re thinking ...”if only I were as wonderful as they are”.

Plenty of us are struggling to pay for gas to get to work .... that is if we have jobs. Just like communists the world over - those at the top have a great life while everyone else suffers like slaves.

BARF!!!

Is she taking the kids?

Gotta get them an in depth look at backward socialist economies so after they finish law school and go into Democrat politics they can continue Baraq’s legacy.

Oh boy, this is too rich. Michelle is headed off on safari in the motherland and we get to join in on the conversation! How special. This is clearly a good use of tax payer funds. /s

Of course!

And her mother and friends and family and servants and staff and photographers and chefs and drivers and Secret Service and...you get the gist...

The masses can watch her preach how great African socialism is. Both the little and big skulls full of mush will absorb it all. And as they are bending over taking it, they’ll be happy. How wonderful. It’s 1938 all over again.

“Is she taking the kids?”

I just read this:

First daughters Sasha and Malia, and their cousins Leslie and Avery Robinson, will accompany First Lady Michelle Obama on her official travels to South Africa and Botswana next week.

Visited Botswana and S Africa a few years back ... this is the optimum time of the year to visit. Winter in that part of world eliminates many of the pesky critters that are around in warmer weather ... like creepy crawlies and mosquitoes. The days are warm nights are mildly chilly. The timing of this vacation by Michelle is intentional ... no question.

Great. I hope Moochelle gets a picture of her sorry husband’s home village in Kenya saying it was his birthplace.
