CHARLOTTE—First 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."

I did’t call her what I really thought of her.
Deal with it.
He knows the muslim dream of moving in and seizing the land. Very traditional thing.
You reach back, and you give other folks the same chances that helped you succeed.
Poorly veiled code-speak for more Welfare and hand-outs for Holders people
Yeah...what he said.
Watch Charles Krauthammer’s evaluation of Michelle’s speech. Even though he did not go into Zer0’s anti-Christian bias, he did take to task the speech. God used Krauthammer:
If Michelle wanted to fire up the base and stoke the fires of Obama’s Cult of Personality, she succeeded.....but frankly most of the centrists and undecideds are thinking, “How the #*%$ are they just like us?”
I keep thinking.... if they are a middle class family, then why the hard sell?
Methinks Michelle doth protest too much!
HAHAHAHAHAHAH Yea right, every one in America aims to be get a job as a low paying community organizer, and an affirmative action recipient that never worked a day in his life. The Obama’s are hysterical with their BS
Mitt Romney says, send this woman on a prolonged national speaking tour. I need all the help I can get.
Well he’s lived some kind of dream. A mediocre, no talent red diaper baby with zero accomplishments under his belt gets elected President. What could go wrong?
The American dream is affirmative action?
I listened to MOs entire speech - it was a good speech.
The problem is, and this is what I told the missus, is that while MO espoused a strong work ethic as the key to their American dream, their policies diametrically oppose their supposed “principles”.
As the great Ronaldus Magnus quipped: “...the trouble with our liberal friends is not that they are ignorant, but that they know so much that isn’t so.”

That article summarizes his advantages, and their first post (linked from there) goes into much detail, with links, proving the kind of privileged life Obama has led. She lies. Her family was solidly middle class, too. They had far more privileges than most who lived in Chicago.
calklk her what you want in your own mind, just don't lower yourself to commenting in her personally in public.
You do your thing. I’ll do mine.
You’re busy worrying about people calling the (p)Resident’s wife thunder butt or what ever I called her while her and her husband are destroying the country and calling us names.
I agree with you 100%, but you are lowering yourself to their level by "name calling". It serves no purpose whatsoever and good conservatives should be way above that level. When you get down there with the trash....you could become contaminated with their garbage!!
