Anika…I’m responding to your comment two years later.

First, you’re obviously some bitter white girl who can’t stand the sight of a Black family in the White House.

Second, Michelle Obama has more class than you will ever have in your whole LIFE. This is the truth.

Peg-Ann Fahey…what kind of dumb hick name is that? You sound like ignorant trailer trash. There is no comparison between Michelle Obama and Omarosa. Please get over yourself, honey!

To : Ms Independent ” this country didnâ€™t give her anythingâ€“she worked for it”

She admitted to having low SAT’s and being advised not to go to princeton because her scores showed her lack in caliber…. – but she still used affirmative action and got into princeton. Have you read her thesis from her time there… ??

The country has not given her anything ??? Do you know that some deserving white kid with high SAT scores didn’t make it to Preinceton because of her…

I have no problems if she and Obama used Affirmative Action but don’t you turn around and then tell us the country didnt do anything for you….

If the obamas really thinks that then she and barack should move to kenya and see if their daughters would do better there…

she defnitely looks like omarosa and has the same belligerent distasteful attitude as omarosa..

At least Omarosa was brutal but smart… and less of an affirmative action -ivy leaguer compared to michelle..

Although they both sure use the same race-victimhood to bully people to feel guilty for calling them on their BS..

They are both pathetic… — Bottom line for me .. i can stand to watch omarosa for the entertainment value but i cannot stand michelle obama becoming 1st lady and representing our nation to the world…. — NO WAY

Even media folks that like obama cant stand michelle ‘omarosa’ obama…

That’s just the thing: this country didn’t give her anything–she worked for it just like anyone else. Her contempt is for the double standards of less than equal this society is built on and not for the country HER ancestors constructed through hard labor. But I don’t know why I bothered to respond to such comments, it is safe to deduce that you will continue to live in the ignorance your skin has allotted you.

Afrobella, congratulations on being selected as one of the top 10 blogs by Glam.com!

That article about Michelle Obama’s roommate helped me understand her experiences better.

However, Michelle Obama’s statement that she was proud of her country for the first time in her is unforgivable. Michelle Obama has had the privilege to have had an Ivy League education and high-paying jobs, and still she’s not proud of the country that gave her these opportunities??

Voters are not going to forget that. I don’t want a First Lady who harbors contempt for this country. If Barack Obama becomes the Democratic Party nominee, he will be trounced like McGovern, Carter (1980), Mondale, and Dukakis before him.

Cindy McCain dissed Michelle over her comment about being finally proud of America, questioning Michelle’s integrity and patriotism. At the same time, are we supposed to ignore the skeletons lurking in her closet?

By Amy Silverman

Oct. 18, 1999 | PHOENIX — GOP presidential candidate John McCain’s wife Cindy took to the airwaves last week, recounting for Jane Pauley (on “Dateline”) and Diane Sawyer (on “Good Morning America”) the tale of her onetime addiction to Percocet and Vicodin, and the fact that she stole the drugs from her own nonprofit medical relief organization.

It was a brave and obviously painful thing to do.

It was also vintage McCain media manipulation.

I had dï¿½jï¿½ vu watching Cindy McCain on television, perky in a purple suit with tinted pearls to match. It was so reminiscent of the summer day in 1994 when suddenly, years after she’d claimed to have kicked her habit, McCain decided to come clean to the world about her addiction to prescription painkillers.

I believe she wore red that day. She granted semi-exclusive interviews to one TV station and three daily newspaper reporters in Arizona, tearfully recalling her addiction, which came about after painful back and knee problems and was exacerbated by the stress of the Keating Five banking scandal that had ensnared her husband. To make matters worse, McCain admitted, she had stolen the drugs from the American Voluntary Medical Team, her own charity, and had been investigated by the Drug Enforcement Administration.

Omarosa, like every other person who attempts to parlay the so-called reality TV (Get a grip folks, reality TV is just as scripted as any other form of television, it is NOT real) was willing to play along with the stereotyping of strong black women in order to continue to get the next fifteen minutes. Unlike Elisabeth (see Survivor) on the View, she has yet to get a full time gig as a result. Elisabeth, who is at best, an uninformed person in denial, at worst a covert racist was blonde blue-eyed and cute, thus able to spew her nonsense at any given moment on the show and they call Hot Topics. Omarosa can’t buy a gig anywhere because she made the wrong choice in letting them portray her as the Black B-word from ’round the way. If she was so terrible Trump would not have called her back to his show, twice, because the ratings fell as soon as she was gone the first time. Now she is stuck with the image and her fifteen minutes is about up; she needs to come back to reality and use her degree to get a real job. She need not worry, no one may recognize her since we all look alike.

HA HA HA!! Mrs. Obama and Omarosa, my goodness. Couldn’t those political pundits find something else to try to discredit the Obamas. Mrs. Obama is the epitome of elegance and grace with intelligence and wit to boot! OMG, wouldn’t America benefit from having another first lady like Jackie Kennendy? Wouldn’t women beneit from having a woman like Mrs. Obama showing rooms in the NEW White House? Can’t you just picture her on speaking tours with her daughters speaking at lucheons, female lawyers, female business leaders? Can’t you see her speaking to our young people about what it is like growing up in Chicago on the South side and then still fighting to make it to the top. Can you imagine her story…now that would make a GOOD BOOK!
