CHARLOTTEFirst Lady Michelle Obama never once mentioned Mitt Romney's name. But in her speech before the Democratic National Convention speech Monday night, she offered a dramatic contrast between her husband, Barack Obama, and his Republican opponent, insisting he understands the struggles of average Americans because he's lived through those tough times, too.
"Barack knows the American Dream because he's lived it, and he wants everyone in this country to have that same opportunity, no matter who we are, or where we're from, or what we look like, or who we love," Michelle Obama said. "He believes that when you've worked hard, and done well, and walked through that doorway of opportunity, you do not slam it shut behind you. You reach back, and you give other folks the same chances that helped you succeed."

We can’t even get his college transcripts, admission records, and thesis..probably an F student, and got in on foreign Aid
it is below the intellectual level of a conservative to besmirch the physical attributes of our opponents....nEVER stoop to their level.
He’s “living the American dream”, that is why we must use confiscatory taxes to punish the successful because Old Money resents New Money.
BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!my question for 4 years....no answers.
The American Dream is not just for public sector union jobs.
For her ignorant target audience..it was a good speech.
I spent a lot of time thowing my house shoes at the tv.
I heard part of Harry Reid’s speech on the radio on the way home. That man lies so much I couldn’t take it.
I really think it is important to listen to the opposing side. But I won’t make it thru this whole convention.
I want to...but... I... just... can’t
The Obamas’ idea of the American dream is the Bizarro version, unrecognizable to regular, hard working, patriotic Americans:
Everything is handed to them by the government and paid for by real taxpayers.
Their way is paved by Affirmative Action.
They are accustomed to receiving favored treatment because of their black skin.
They are held to lower standards than the norm because they are black skinned.
They are given “credit” for meaningless “life experience” in order to pad their records.
Their heads are pumped full of politically correct mush to build false self esteem.
They are protected from criticism and the rigors of a normal life by their black skin.
Anyone who criticizes them or expects them to actually earn their way in life is brutally attacked as a racist.
And as they stand there looking down on the people and the country who gave them everything they could ask for, they don’t even have the class and grace to hide their hate and disdain for America and the Americans who made their fantastic success possible.
They are both nothing more than arrogant, incompetent, parasitic grifters.
In the 1960s, NASA's in-house motto was that "Apollo will be judged on its accomplishments, not its intentions". This same standard should be brought to bear on the White House this election year.
He might be living the dream but Im living the nightmare.
WELL SAID.
Bull Squeeze! He hasn’t worked a day in his useless life!
Ø might be living the dream but we're enduring the nightmare.
Actually he hasn't. He's just a hideous parasite sucking the life-blood out of others who are living the American dream.
WHAT??
I thought he said he didn't build that!!!!
Michelle Obummer: Barack knows the American Wet Dream because hes lived it
I've read scores of stories about Mr. Romney and his family PERSONALLY helping many people in dire need. I have not read ONE SINGLE story of Obastard giving the gift of himself to anybody in need.
