CNN Applauds Michelle’s Dem Convention Speech, Van Jones ‘Crying

Following the highly anticipated DNC speech by First Lady Michelle Obama on Monday, CNN’s Anderson Cooper called out Political Commentator Van Jones for crying during the speech. “Well I mean, first of all, if you weren't moved by that, go see the doctor,” he responded. Jones continued by speaking glowingly about the speech, “She gave a clinic on how to connect to the American people,” and “It was her speaking as a mother.” The rest of the panelists did much of the same, they all praised her speech for different reasons.

CNN’s Senior Political Reporter Nia-Malika Henderson praised Hillary Clinton’s wisdom in selecting the first lady to speak on the first night of the convention. “I think the Clinton campaign smartly knew that this was going to be the headline of the night,” Henderson noted, before taking a swipe at Clinton’s primary rival, “They knew that most Americans weren't tuning in for Bernie Sanders, and no offense to Bernie Sanders, but they were tuning in for Michelle Obama.”

The Wookie’s incoherent, rambling speech was a bizarre and embarrassing spectacle. I seriously wonder if she was drunk up there.

“It only took $100,000,000 in free taxpayer trips”...

And a bunch of taxpayer-provided plastic surgery under her special version of “Oobomma Family Care”. Compare her Wookie pics from 2006-2008 time frame with recent ones.

Did they write their fawning praise before or after the speech? She could belch for 45 mins and get the same response from CommieNN.

Pray America wakes

Buy yourself a snorkel, because you’re about to drown in treacle. And if it gets any worse, investing in scuba lessons might not be a bad idea.

Only it won’t be treacle you’ll be drowning in ...

The media use to try and hide their democratic party roots. Now they don’t even do.

Are they setting Moochie up on Hot Standby to take Hillary’s place as the democrat nominee when Wikileaks releases the next batch of eMails?

I've been saying that for about a year now. She wins by great margins if they do that. How could Trump defend against it?

Hahaha….just wait till Election Night as the Red Tide rolls across the fruited plain sweeping Trump into office . Everyone on the CNN set, every dinosaur network and at least 3/4ths of the Fox News crew will be sobbing uncontrollably. Have the champagne on ice!

Seems I remember her makeup artist is $1500-1800/day - does she use him every day???!!! $$$$$

Don’t think that includes hair or makeup done on her mother and kids.

How much has that cost us over 8 years?

You could be right but I think this will not happen for two reasons. The Beast Hillery will take everybody down with her,and The wookie Moochie is way to lazy.

Had Reagan ever referred to his kids
as “my white children” the press would have come down like a ton of bricks on him. Michele can say “My black daughters” with out a peep.

The reality of the situation which we'd all better be cautious about is the fact that roughly 47% of ALL Americans will have found that speech highly appealing and effective. I realize it doesn't play around here, but the fact is that her speech and those of the other Dems was highly delectable red meat. Further, think back to your own mindset in 2008 and then again in 2012 and how inconceivable it seemed to you that this country could possibly vote for Obama. Nope! Not a chance! No way, no how!

I know this is obvious but Michelle has a chip on her shoulder about her blackness. I think she resents it. She wishes she was white.

Hmmmm. Has the msm checked for any sign of plagiarism? I’m pretty sure the words “the” and “and” were lifted from some speech by somebody someplace sometime.

Exactly.... and your reference to "my black daughters" scarcely scratches the surface of how racist the speech was. Oh and it was very DARK too....

Proof of your point was her hairstyle last night.
