Michelle Obama: ‘Instead of Pointing Fingers and Placing Blame, Barack Got to Work’
cnsnews.com ^ | 9/17/12 | Melanie Hunter

First lady Michelle Obama, speaking in Gainesville, Fla., on Monday, said that while the nation was on the verge of another Great Depression, President Barack Obama did not assign blame – instead “he got to work.”

“The economy was losing 800,000 jobs every month, and a lot folks wondered whether we were headed for another great depression. Now this is what Barack faced on day one as president. That’s what awaited him, but instead of pointing fingers and placing blame, Barack got to work, because he was thinking about folks like my dad, like his grandmother,” the first lady said.

“Since the day he took office, on issue after issue, crisis after crisis, that’s what I’ve seen, that’s what we’ve all seen in my husband. We’ve seen his values at work. We’ve seen his vision unfold. We’ve seen the depths of his character, courage, and convictions. Here’s proof: Think back to when Barack first took office, and our economy was on the brink of collapse,” she said.

What some artistic sort needs to do pair this quote with a montage, O playing golf (# of rounds), shooting hoops (# of games), vacations (# and where to), etc.

Also would love to see a montage of how many rounds of golf he played during Katrina, how he went campaigning when Americans were raped, killed, and dragged through the streets in Libya. How much he spent on vacations while 11 million Americans are out of work.

Wish I could paint or draw but alas, no talent here.

Yeah, me too. Hurl! He got to work alright, PLAYING GOLF, SHOOTING BASKETS, AVOIDING DOING A BUDGET, TAKING LAVISH VACATIONS - SOME WITH MICHELLE, CAMPAIGNING, GIVING ENDLESS TELEPROMPTER SPEECHES, GETTING THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD SET UP IN THE ARAB SPRING. As for Michelle, she has to do some fast jive talking if she wants to hang onto all those fringe benefits and lavish vacations.

Just call me RACIST TWINKIE!

I cannot believe that anyone, anywhere, believes this woman. She is a snake. She is a liar. She is a fraud. Her and her husband, Barack Obama, are going to be looking for a new house soon.

Nicely done. Not only does the sockpuppet blame everyone else, he does it in that way that spoiled, coddled, manipulative moma’s-boys brats do it.

Constant adoring and coddling by all his “aunts” in msm allow the boy-king to keep on playing.

Revising RECENT history, like from a few weeks or months ago? That takes nerve!

Well most welfare punks are home toking it up on the goobermint nickle and can't remember what they had for breakfast, so I guess she is just pandering to the Pothead voting block.

We know this can’t be true because Obama has never done a days work in his whole life.
