In a strange Michelle Obama is telling the truth – just not the real truth– this is a mean country – at least some of the law is – in the sense that we allow the wholesale slaughter of unborn persons. Barrack Obama’s greatest regret is he voted to try to help save the life of disabled Terri Schiavo from being starved to death? He voted against a law that would give medical attention to babies who survived abortions? So I can only believe that disabled people and babies know the truth of ‘this is a country that is downright mean’… and some of it can be pointed directly at Barack Obama’s anti life beliefs and voting record. What can the disabled and the unborn expect if Obama is elected? Apparently not protection. However, Michelle doesn’t say anything like that does she? Both she and her husband are wealthy due to the opportunities afforded them by this great country and now they’re trying to exploit class envy card to get even more money and more power!!!! and yet they will stand in the way of people having life… without any second thoughts. Well – that’s how I see things…

we’re a divided country, we’re a country that is “just downright mean” we are “guided by fear”

Two questions I’d like one of the rational Obama supporters (T-Steel, for instance) to clear up for me. I’m completely serious, and would love to hear the answers.

First: if it is true that the country is so divided, how can we expect that the Senator with the single most liberal, partisan voting record will be able to unify the country? He’s shown no interest in acting as a unifier or compromiser until now – why should we anticipate that he will be different in the White House?

Second: if it is wrong for us to be “guided by fear”, does that mean we can expect the Obama campaign will not be exploiting any fears? No scaring the elderly about Social Security, no talking down the economy to scare people, etc. Will that be a staple of the Obama campaign?

More from Michelle…

…Obama, that is:

“‘…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 ar…

[...] From the mouth of someone who has listened to Mrs. Obama give the speech several times, we hear that she prepared the speech herself and has it so close to her heart that she can speak to the topic for 45 minutes without interruption. We also hear that the speech is “admirably consistent.” Over and over and over again, Michelle Obama tells audiences that the country is broken, mean, divided, that there’s nothing to be proud of here. People are slothful and complacent, but still somehow manage to “struggle”. Above all, however, is the fact that Michelle Obama has not gotten hers yet. As Sister Toldjah notes, Mrs. Obama is the personification of the socialist mindset. [...]

Why would we as Americans want to be represented by a man whose wife thinks we’re “just downright mean”? There are 180+ other countries out there Michelle, maybe you and Barack might be happier in one of them!

“The salaries don’t keep up with the cost of paying off the debt, so you’re in your 40s, still paying off your debt at a time when you have to save for your kids”…this is in fact a sort-of-valid concern, but she’s blaming the wrong people. High college costs aren’t caused by “mean” Americans or by eeevil corporations, but by empire-building college administrators, who often have no interest in either the cost or the value of the “service” that they are providing.

Ditto, benning.

I wonder if liberals will ever realize that the meme of “Your life sucks, vote for me” really doesn’t fly with most of America.

The more we hear from Michelle Obama, and the more we learn about Michelle Obama, the more we thoroughly dislike her and distrust her. She is a Black Nationalist and a Socialist. And nothing good will come from her or her messianic hubby.
