I should like Michelle Obama, but I don't

I know I should like Michelle Obama. But . . . I just don’t.

I can’t! Because, every time I try, I’m snake-charmed back by the pearlised nail varnish and Mars Attacks! hair of the one, the only, the ultimate power cheerleader: Cindy McCain.

It all came to a head the other week when the putative First Fembot bowled through London on her way back to America from Vietnam. (Clearly, heiresses don’t worry about their carbon footprint — just as long as it’s a diamond-studded, snake-skin-heeled stiletto mega-stomp.)

With an Air Force One blow-dry and coral-pink lipstick, the former junior rodeo queen was clearly on a charm offensive. “Oh garsh,” she fluttered when asked about the 71-year-old pepaw — far from being over the hill, he actually “wore her out”, and if campaigning ever got too arduous, she sweetly contented herself with the fact that that she had “a ringside seat on American history”. The general impression was that Mrs McCain, in the style of Laura Bush and Nancy Reagan, doesn’t really want to be First Lady at all, and is, instead, rather looking forward to getting back to her diamonds and the delights of the Dallas Crystal Charity Ball once her husband has got this highfalutin political jiggery-pokery out of his system.

John McCain embarrassed by aide's terror gaffe The more John McCain is right on Iraq, the more he loses How much more reassuring than Michelle Obama, who comes from the “I’ve got a leather skirt, I’ve got a leather Birkin bag, I’ve got a PhD in whupass” school of political wifery. We’ve only just got rid of Chony and Billary, for pity’s sake, and here we are again with yet another twinkly-eyed charisma merchant whose gobby wife can barely stop herself from grabbing the microphone.

Thanks for the correction. As soon as I can put this information into a context that applies to what I was saying I know that I will be totally and completely enlightened!!!!!
I did get a laugh out of this post. My wife is a teacher and when she really feels the need to correct me I look at her and laugh and totally ignore her for at least 5 minutes. I mean I act like she does not exist. She has learned that I am not one of her students and I'm not a child. If I talk to her at all I will ask her the same question that being, “ would you correct that person over there if they made the same error as I just did.” I will ask this question loudly and point to the person I'm talking about.
So if you feel the need to correct me have at it. I'll just smile and keep on with things.

Welcome to FR. I doubt it ever happened. Look at the source.

“Look,its true that Michele is an angry,in your face, confrontational black woman.”

I think it’s a party issue.

Michelle Obama is the black Hillary Klintoon. Angry, vengeful and full of self. Just imagine the “Enemies of Obama” list that Michelle will compile!!

“Man, I was just starting to ease up on McCain.”

Not bad at all. You’ve been a member for 13 days and you’re already posting snide little innuendoes. Not bad, troll.

Of course not. She doesn't pretend to. Neither do I.

The Gores of this world don't worry about their carbon footprint either, but they spend a lot of time worrying about yours, because they expect you to pay and they expect to broker the deal.

Here is a link to several of Pastor James David Mannings rants. They’re very entertaining and he nails it almost 90% of the time.

Except I don't know about the word 'despise'. Got anything stronger?

Not without a visit from the Secret Service. ;-)

"It is best to ignore Barak’s Ho and certainly do not ever be caught calling that girl a Bitch! "

I think that the leading candidate for a moniker is "barak's baby mama".

Troll?

Because I’m shocked that a man called his wife the c word? In front of other people no less?

Is that the reaction here?

And just because I just joined to post to articles doesn’t mean I have had my head in the sand up until then. Did your life begin with a membership to Freerepublic? Sad.

I wouldn’t vote for Barack if McCain called me the c word.

I hope you are right. After looking it up last night, I see the earliest reporting of this is in April of 2008. I think I am doubting this rumor.

What is sadder is that a journalist is using it in an article and it seems that is all it is, a rumor.

Oh yeah, and I have been saying snide innuendos my whole life. And I’ve always had trouble with this flyaway hair. Do you have any suggestions?
