".....Michelle Obama IS the First Lady of the United States of America. Do you have to like whatever she does, or even what she wears? No. (In fact, many of us would often make other fashion selections for her). But without a doubt, her work with childhood obesity and military families is stellar! Those are facts that should not be denied. How and why would anyone criticize her for trying to stem childhood obesity in this country? It is an epidemic in this country and it is killing our children!
Michelle Obama is a smart, educated, Harvard-educated attorney who is a wife, mother, daughter and, yes...First Lady of the USA. She is intelligent, articulate, healthy, energetic, well-spoken and a great role model and representative for girls, women and the American way. She deserves as much respect as did those who preceded her and those who will follow.
I have not agreed with all that Pres. Obama has had to do, but again, he was handed a very bad hand. Nor am I defined in any way by Michelle Obama. And I don't usually post about political matters here at PT, but this is about basic decency and calling racism out for what it is. To see people be so nasty, and demeaning, and vile, and disrespectful toward America's First Family is absolutely unacceptable. Shame, shame, shame on all who engage in such discourse and disrespect."
