to flood victims in Colorado and Mexico. Not to mention drought victims in the West and around the world. And to people who can't swim. It's like she wants to hurt all of humanity.

I've haven't been so enraged since the last time she said something about something or did something or other...

I saw a photograph of Michelle Obama when she was Dating her future husband.
It was a beautifu photo, of course, but heres the scary bit:


She is unchanged.
She has not aged a day.
See?



Has anyone noticed whether she twinkles in the sun?

organic gardening is associated with hippies, communal "free love" relationships, communism and the homosexual lifestyle.

Down to Earth & gracious - yet elegant and beautiful. What a role model. Great wife and mother to 2 wonderful grounded girls. Healthy eating, exercise and let's not forget what she & Jill are doing for the families of our troops. She puts herself out there, walks the walk and gets it done!

Apparently Michelle Obama has a personal staff of 400 people (and all previous first ladies have had 4). She found yet another way to leech off the government, you know, the way those people always do.

in the White House basement, just waiting for their orders to unleash an apocalypse to help Michelle become world dictator? Hardly anybody seems to see through it!

I mean, if you're stupid enough to go to the White House website and read the 2013 report to Congress, sure, it looks like she only has nine staff members, with titles like ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CHIEF OF STAFF TO THE FIRST LADY -- but if you do that, not only can they capture your fingerprints, they'll take over your computer and beam microwaves at you through your monitor, so you don't even notice how many other "ASSISTANTs TO THE PRESIDENT" there are. What do they all do? I'll tell you what they do: they camp out in the White House basement with Michelle, plotting to kidnap all the white people in America to sell them as slaves to extragalactic alien invaders, that's what

She had the front of her hair cut in bangs, and that is not a dignified thing for a First Lady to do since that word is also slang, a verb connoting a sex act. Outrageous disregard for propriety of appearance, really.
