What we have learned over this year is that hope is making a comeback. It is making a comeback and let me tell you something, For the first time in my adult lifetime, I am really proud of my country. And not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change. I have been desperate to see our country moving in that direction and just not feeling so alone in my frustration and disappointment. I have seen people who are hungry to be unified around some basic common issues. It has made me proud."
Can we please get back the our regularly scheduled realities?
And a Republican has been in the White House for the last seven years. Coincidence, Michelle? Better get that looked at...
the ~~ “to.” man I’m sick of that, too.
It is disgusting that someone like her,,,,in a country as great as ours....can make a demeaning comment like that about our country.
She is a total embarrassment to our ENTIRE COUNTRY for making such a bogus, anti-American, insulting statement about the greatest country on earth (but then again, that makes her no different than her husband)!!!
Well, if she is 45, that would mean she hasn’t been a proud American since roughly 1980. Reagan was elected that year. The only Dem president since has been Clinton, and she certain won’t say she was proud during those years.
Giving her the benefit of the doubt, she may have meant that she hasn’t been proud of the country’s leadership. But it certainly sounds bad the way she said it.
The first time in her life she is proud of her country? We don’t need the Obamas to tell us whether they are proud of us or not.
That this isn’t treated as a gaff says a lot about the state of the nation.
That is exactly the way I feel about it. If they make it to the White House it will be the saddest day in the history of the United States.
I am writing Ms. Obama in instead of voting for McCain, because he isn’t a true conservative.
Ok, so she’s been an adult for how many years???? This is the first time she’s been proud,,,,,I wouldn’t broadcast that Ms. Obama,,,,I’d be ashamed to admit something like that.....are you an American through and through or just on the surface............
Excellent.
Keep it coming, Michelle.
Prattle on all you want. We’re recording every inane word.
Anti-American and insulting comments like THAT,,,
is what makes them democrats.
I was in shock. But what Michele Obama says here is that same mind set; and it is sad. We have lost a large part of a generation.
What a stupid woman!
How embarrassing for her parents.
She makes me want to vomit.
God have mercy on us if this couple gets into the White House.
Save your criticism of this moron for the general. The most important thing we can do at this point is still to get rid of the Clintons.
Obamma and obamma moma will be easy to throw under the bus when the time comes with stupid unAmerican statements like this one.
“This woman and this couple is dangerous! about as scary to me as the Clinton’s. The media will look past all their transgressions. Then of course, we have the wonderful John McCain to look forward to, even if we happen to win—”
McCain may not be all that I wish for in a president, but to the best of knowledge, he’s never said anything this stupid.
I wonder what will need to happen for her to continue to feel proud now?
