The fallout from Michelle Obamas heckling incident continued Thursday, as some defenders of the first lady charge that the heckler used coded racial language, and in general spoke from a perspective of white privilege.
These folks point to a comment protester Ellen Sturtz made after she interrupted the first lady during a fundraiser and challenged President Obama to fulfill a campaign promise and sign an order banning federal contractors from discriminating against gays and lesbians.
Rather than speak over Ms. Sturtz, Mrs. Obama left the podium and confronted the heckler in person, saying shed leave if the heckling didnt stop.
She came right down in my face. I was taken aback, said Sturtz after the incident.
What, did Sturtz think the first lady was just going to let the interruption go on, or hand her the mike?
Sturtzs description of the encounter was a breathtaking bit of projection and entitlement that also tiptoed dangerously close to the angry black woman stereotype that Mrs. Obama has been dogged by for years, writes Anna Holmes, founding editor of the feminist blog Jezebel, in a Time Magazine column....

From this, we learn that black beats gay.
We also know that Muslim beats gay (Muslims bash gays in London and it isn’t reported or is covered up).

I guess the question is, who wins when you have black vs. Muslim??
So the heckler gets in someone’s face with her interrupting, then is “take aback” by the speaker getting in her face? Lady you started the aggression. I have no love at all for Michele Obama, but if you want to dish it out, be prepared for return fire.
Aw, c’mon, Michelle. Dissent is patriotic!
Yeah, right. Surrounded by all her secret servants, Moochelle was so brave and poised. I was waiting for it to turn out like that kindergarten graduation.
Both women were pathetic.
these people lean so far forward they're already a year ahead of the rest of us.
***She came right down in my face. I was taken aback,***
Now you know how scary it is for the President every morning...
An angry Moochelle in your face beats just about anything in terms of intimidation.
What if she would have been a black lesbian?

Taking the focus off of FLOTUS’ tacky spoiled behavior
I thought the heckler was speaking from GAY privilege
They are, after all, the most protected and promoted political group in American these days.

Sturtz is fortunate that Big Moosie didn’t throw a half-nelson on her the way she did Queen Elizabeth.
I can’t help thinking about how Laura Bush would have handled a similar situation. Would she have “gotten in the women’s face”, or would she have handled it in a polite and dignified manner? I think we all know the answer.
Black Christian vs Muslim, you mean? That's a good question. Black Christians will be the last cultural swing voters, so to speak.
Since Democrat-labeled “code racial words” now include “and,” “but”, and “the,” I would assume so.
