Michelle Obama's continuing echoes of Wright's displeasures



Because sometimes

it's easier
to hold on to your own stereotypes
and
misconceptions

it makes you feel justified
in your own ignorance
That's America!
About 1:20 into this talk. Is she just not cognizant of what she is saying? Or is she really telling us how she thinks about those typical white persons? You know the 'downright mean' ones..

From the New Yorker on Michelle Obama:
Obama begins with a broad assessment of life in America in 2008, and life is not good: we're a divided country, we're a country that is "just downright mean," we are "guided by fear," we're a nation of cynics, sloths, and complacents. "We have become a nation of struggling folks who are barely making it every day," she said, as heads bobbed in the pews. "Folks are just jammed up, and it's gotten worse over my lifetime. And, doggone it, I'm young. Forty-four!"

Let that silly millionaire bitch live my life for a week and then let's see what she has to complain about when she goes back to hers.

What we have in the person of Michelle Obama and her ilk are people who will not be happy until they can "get even" by subjecting every human being on earth who is not "of color" to their revenge fantasies for real or imagined injustices visited upon their ancestors. In their eyes, all people not "of color" are responsible for these real or imagined injustices, but of course that cannot be defined as racism because racism can only be practiced by those people who are not "of color". It thus follows inevitably that people such as Michelle Obama will not be satisfied until they have assumed the position of slave master and all people not "of color" have assumed the position of slaves. If it continues to be impractical to stage so literal a revenge fantasy through the medium of the American political process, then an Obama presidency will have to do. Followed in due order by dhimmitude to the Ummah, Reconquista by La Raza, and the destruction of Western Civilization. Once all that is accomplished, Michelle can serenely return to her mcmansion (assuming she can find it in the rubble) and bask in the realization that all those nasty white devils are finally gone and life will be perfect from here on.

Dream on, Michelle...

Poor, poor Michelle Obama.

Imagine what a couple orgasms could do for her outlook.

I honestly don't get it.
4 generations after slavery, in a generation when A LOT of white folks not only believed in civil rights, but FOUGHT for civil rights, we establish a program to MAKE UP FOR a sin washed clean by the death of 650,000 northern men, and she is in the right place and is prepared to take advantage of that with the brains god gave her in a nation willing to give her every advantage man can give and still have a semblance of fairness to all, left.

I'd have said, oh, well good for her, but NO, we are downright mean, we are fighting to hold our ignorance...and she seems to adopt the basic ideas of the total idiot James Cone and the hater, and racist, Wright, and now spews back out such feeling.

What is one to make of that?
Can she hold radically different views from her hubby and state them publicly?

I think not
