She’s making political statements during a trip that we were told was a-political. I say the cost be deducted from zero’s pay.

How diplomatic of her. Spend two days in a country and then start preaching at them.

Well, except in the good ol’ US, where Schmucky Schumer and other grandees determine who is a “real” journalist.

"When it comes to expressing yourself freely, and worshipping as you choose, and having open access to information "Especially, the NSA, they are striving to access information on every text, email, and phone call of American Citizens, oh, and China's too", Mrs Obama added with a devilish grin.

“universal right”...I believe the correct phrase should be ‘God-given right’. But I guess she just couldn’t bring herself to say that, just like her husband.
To: dfwgator
Or as long as you agree with her husband.

Not one of FLOTUS' 70 aides told the Chinese about the significance of the symbolism of a noose to a *person of color*?

"When it comes to expressing yourself freely, and worshipping as you choose, and having open access to information - we believe those are universal rights that are the birthright of every person on this planet," Mrs Obama told an audience of around 200 students. Unless you're Christian, right Mooch? Or white? Or conservative? Or male? Or a vet?
In other words, it depends on what the meaning of "you" is.
