[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was GREAT last night!

You haters make me laugh.  Why is Michelle so threatening to you?  Just don’t see her speak or buy her book.  It is what we did with Sarah Palin.

Just let it go, guys.  If she is not your cup of tea, she is not your cup of tea.  End of discussion. [/quote]

Sarah Palin was a Governor, after having been a Mayor.

Michelle is a lovely homemaker.[/quote]
Oh geez. “A lovely homemaker” with a JD from a Harvard and impressive work history. Pp is right. You are embarrassing yourself. [/quote]

She is clearly very bright but I don’t think she’s ever really accomplished anything of import so it isn’t clear to me why I should care about anything she has to say.  I’d pay to hear her husband speak for sure....he is the one that actually achieved at a high level.[/quote]
I disagree but I wasnt commenting on whether you feel it’s worth it to hear her speak. Saying she’s just a housewife is ridiculous and you know it. Comparing her to Sarah Palin is even more ridiculous. [/quote]

I wasn’t the Palin/housewife poster but now I’m curious.....[b]why are people going to see her speak?  The events are obviously popular but I simply don’t understand the attraction[/b]. [/quote]

Many people feel that she has an interesting life story and perspective, as a kid from the South Side of Chicago who went on to the Ivies, a legal career, and then the first AA FLOTUS married to the first AA POTUS.  You don't find this interesting, and that's okay.  [/quote]

Michelle also always retained an air of grace and civility while she, her husband and children were being attacked.  She is admirable.  [/quote]

They were attacked? Right.

Unlike the Clintons, The media fawned over the Obamas and the entertainment business never lampooned them. They had a pretty easy ride[/quote]

Um, maybe its because they weren't scandalous or had scandalous children and/or family members?  No affairs, lawsuits over shady business deals, past legal problems, children doing stupid things. Most former presidents (and current for that matter) are anything but clean. If you aren't a blinded Obama hater and used rational thought you would have to admit that they were the most decent couple to hold that office in a very long time. I'm not saying you have to like their politics or policies, but be honest. They have only ever been married to each other and they clearly still seem to love and respect each other. They have 2 children, and no others, who seems to be fine young ladies. To the PP, they just didn't give the "entertainment" business much to work with. How can you fault them for that??? Unlike our current president who is just the gift that keeps on giving. [/quote]
