U.S. first lady Michelle Obama took the rare step of delivering her husband President Barack Obama's weekly radio address on Saturday to express outrage over the kidnapping of some 200 girls in Nigeria last month.

"Like millions of people across the globe, my husband and I are outraged and heartbroken over the kidnapping of more than 200 Nigerian girls from their school dormitory in the middle of the night," Mrs. Obama said in the address.

"This unconscionable act was committed by a terrorist group determined to keep these girls from getting an education - grown men attempting to snuff out the aspirations of young girls."

I’m sorry for those girls, but we have our own problems here at home. Another thing: This country has poured billions into African countries including Nigeria, but they still can’t take care of themselves. It’s high time we shut off the tap and use this resources to take care of ourselves. Let Nigeria deal with its own problems.

I’m surprised the kidnappers aren’t labeled as conservative groups.

“the most wonderful sound in the world is the call to prayer thruout the world of Islam”

Here is his actual quote:

‘Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”’

I remembered his exact word, ‘prettiest’, because it sounds so effete.

mooch-ell outrages me that she is a thief of taxpayer funds for her (and her grifter family)constant extravagant vacays, her racist attitudes, her ignorant nanny-like utterances about others' food and so forth. This affirmative-action clown really outrages me that she and her communist husband aren't in prison. Outrageous!

Scientifically, when the sperm interacts with the egg, only one outcome is defined, (deo volente).

Dogs can’t “hump a cat” and have some strange “body-snatchers” result. Likewise with humans. The result of human sperm and human ovarium results in human life. On the first division of the fetal cells, God’s intent is evident.

The Dhimmicrats should be “nailed-to-the-wall” at every opportunity we have to explain the whole process of abortion and “choice”. Unfortunately, the media avoids the real questions.

“one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”’...I’ve always liked “Hey, neighbor! You got any beer left?” When he said yes, I was enraptured.

PC is the most dogmatic form of relativism.

But that Benghazi episode was our own fault.

We should not have produced that anti-Muslim video and put it on the internet.

We should’ve known how sensitive muzzies are.

She should focus her outrage at Hillary Clinton and the miserable failure she was as Secretary of State, and how she coddled the culprits involved by not identifying them as terrorists.

The kidnapping is horrible....Happens EVERY day in that Tribalistic hell hole called Africa. Why are we interested now? The Bill Clinton Hutsi/ Tutu fiasco allowed thousands of these atrocities (to us ) happen.

No mention of the thousands of people blown up, burned alive and shot to death over years and years.

Also these girls were taken to be SLAVES. No mention. Can the word be spoken?

Michelle is worried about “the girls” education and aspirations?. I would think those are rather irrelevant issues considering their lives are in danger being held captive by Islamic terrorist who rape, stone, mutilate women and behead their hostages.
