First Lady says husband 'a man we can trust' (The Long Game)

First lady Michelle Obama lovingly praised her husband Tuesday night in a prime-time Democratic Convention speech as a devoted spouse and caring father at home and a "man we can trust" to revive the nation's weak economy as president, beckoning the country to return him to the White House despite agonizingly slow recovery from recession.

"He reminds me that we are playing a long game here ... and that change is hard, and change is slow and it never happens all at once," she told a nation impatient with slow economic progress and persistently high unemployment of 8.3 percent. "But eventually, we get there, we always do," she said in a speech that roused Democrats packed into their convention arena and blended scenes from almost 20 years of marriage with the Obamas' time in the White House.

Mrs. Obama, given a huge ovation and emotionally describing herself as the "mom in chief," made no mention of Republican challenger Mitt Romney.

Fundamentally changing America from a Free Nation to one of Socialism with little to no freedoms.....Ms. Obama is racist and socialist....she spends millions where others can't and then accuses those who earned their money the old fashioned way of being "non-caring" Ms. Obama loves her rich and pandered life....of course does not want to give it up.

I don’t think that “an improving economy” was the change Homobama has in mind.

I trust in God and nothing else. His will be done.

They trashed “In God We Trust”, now she says to trust her husband. Seems they need to feed his messiah complex.

He is a man you can trust, but you have to listen to his words to know what he’s really promising.

Bustles went out in the late 1800s. If this woman wants to be considered cutting edge, why does she insist on wearing one? Especially since she harangues the public on dietary makeups. Typically lib: do what I say, not what I do. sd

If I can’t trust a person with my dog, then I can’t trust them at all.

No beard is going to convince me otherwise either.

I do trust Brak. I trust him to do exactly what he says he will do. You know, the whole part about bankrupting the coal industry, electric utility rates skyrocketing, not “using 25% of the world’s resources” anymore, “fundamentally transforming America.”

Yes, I absolutely trust him to do all of that. It’s just that I don’t happen to agree with any of it.

Hmm, what could she mean by “long game”? I’d say this is what she really meant:

long con: A “long con” is an extended setup in an attempt to rob or cheat someone else. it usually involved an elaborate story that is executed over many weeks to months, aimed at convincing the target that the con artist (or thief) is legitimately a friend and trustworthy resource. at the end of the long con, the con artist gets the victim to voluntarily put themselves in precisely the position the con artist wants them in.

She's a lyin bitch like all the rest of them. Liked the way her voice crackled and quivered when describing her evil other half. I hope for a devastating, crushing smack down defeat that his father will feel, and when he looses he will be ordained the second mother Theresa, oh the humanity! Mark These words he will be head of the UN soOn after his defeat and head the new world government and all the world governments will be instructed (strings attached) to turn against the US
