Rejoice, because Michelle Obama’s podcast has arrived! (snip)
As Michelle explains in her first episode, which features husband Barack as her guest, the idea of the podcast sprouted up after the family left the White House. Once she “finally had time to breathe,” she threw herself into reflecting on their time at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue — and she didn’t stop there. “I went even deeper,” she said. “I looked back on the whole arc of my life.” Which brings us to this first episode, in which she and Barack explore how parenting (and perspective) has shifted since their youth.
“The phrase that sticks with me from my parents is ‘never enough.’ ‘Cause the minute you had a little bit of something — a pint of ice cream, chocolate and you ask for strawberry — you’d get in trouble. It’s like, ‘How dare you not be satisfied with what you have?’… And I find myself saying that to Malia and Sasha. That’s the biggest thing that gets on my nerves — they know it. We’re doing something great, and you start looking at each other. It’s like, ‘never satisfied’. Stuff doesn’t make you happy.”(snip)
But as Michelle points out, today’s society centers consumerism and accumulation. “The model has become not that you sacrifice, but that you should be able to have it all — and how you get it, and if you’re not getting it something’s wrong,” she lamented.

Re: the "irony alert", she tells them to be satisfied and that Stuff doesn't make you happy.
She also "laments" society's attitude today being "...you should be able to have it all...and if you’re not getting it something’s wrong,”
LOOK IN THE MIRROR, MOOCH.
fadink her dick while she naps
Who?
Guessing they haven’t made enough money yet? Sadly she’s suffering from low level depression because OMB.
How does this folderol square with Mike and Hussein gorging on caviar, wagyu beef and lobster? Sounds like “never enough” has a sliding scale for the Obungas. Everything is relative. Hi
“You should be satisfied with what you have. How dare you want more.” So even their own kids are in the “At some point you’ve made enough” category that Barack likes to put everyone else in.
Recites the Pledge of Allegiance?
The “O’s” certainly have much more than they deserve or EVER earned.... what do any of them have to whine about?
O’bozo’s have more than lots of people who have actually WORKED for what they have.
Assuming jOkeass is their father, the girls are 1/4 white.
If somethig is wrong, she should ask BLM what is wrong because they’re not doing it right. My bad.
“Boomer mom!”
America reveals what michealle does to get on our nerves the most
she speaks in public-
Yahoo! has suspended comments because conservatives would comment. They censored those comments but were sometimes overwhelmed. Notice the survey (which they will use to sniff out conservatives for banning in the future).
“Stuff doesn’t make you happy.”
Then give it all away, Mooch! Start with your mansion by the sea!
P.S. NO ONE wants your wardrobe though, LOL! ;)
Who the hell cares? Drive her nuts Malia and Sasha.
I will say overall its an innocuous video and I agree with her that kids need to be taught humility and control of their desires.
What’s really annoying is the absolutely fawning and childish tone of Yahoo! They are pathetic in their propaganda
I don’t get her comments. Are her kids not satisfied with what they have? And that drives her crazy?
Don’t they live in 3 houses, including an $11million Martha’s Vineyard estate? Haven’t they attended exclusive expensive schools their whole lives, been on expensive vacations too? Worn designer clothes since childhood?
When were her kids ever deprived of anything?
Lemmee guess: smoke ganja with Pops?
Yeah I’ve really been wonderin’ about that...
The girls probably dont like the way mom leaves the toilet seat up.
