Imagine how frightened Michelle must have been last night

[Whisp]

and still today. She must have been crying her eyes out and hoping the children didn't get wind of what despicable images Hillary put in everyones head.

Obama seemed lower keyed than normal in his Puerto rico speech - almost sad. I'll bet he feels really bad that he brought his dear family into this horrible political world.

and I don't think Clinton even apologized to Michelle or Barack directly.

that woman is truly lacking in basic human stuff - she is dangerous and careless and evil and deserves no place to represent americans.

I want her not only to lose her Senate seat, but to move off the planet.

1. If I am Michelle, I am not frightened.

I am downright disgusted and outright pissed.

[Whisp]

3. I would be all of the above

if my dear husband was threatened like that.

and I do see it as a direct threat to him.

[Andy823]

16. Yep,

I think you are right. Pissed would be my first reaction.

[LSparkle]

2. That's what I'm waiting for -- an apology to the OBAMAS ...

not just the Kennedys. I think it's appalling she hasn't
apologized to them already (at least not that I've seen or
heard).

[mcctatas]

4. I don't think she does frightened...

she seems to be a woman of action, a strong woman, an independant woman....(ya know, all those things Hillary claims to be)

[DangerousRhythm]

6. Completely agreed.

That's why I love Michelle... she's clearly a strong woman who does not suffer fools gladly.

8. Fear and strength are not mutually exclusive.

I am sure she is concerned.

[BlooInBloo]

9. She's a person for fuck's sake. Of course she "does fear".

[mcctatas]

12. I'm sure she feels fear, but not in the paralyzed crying her eyes out

way described in the OP, when I said she doesn't "Do fear", that is what I meant...for fuck sake!

5. If Michelle was frightened last night, she's a wimpering idiot.

Why would she be afraid?

Because Bobby Kennedy was shot 40 years ago? Tell her the guy who did it is in jail, so she doesn;t have to sleep with the light on anymore. She's safe.

Is it because Hillary MENTIONED that Bobby was shot? Tell her that unless her name is Bobby, she is therefore in no danger.

Is it because people tell her that Hillary mentioning Bobby got shot would somehow make somebody want to shoot BO? Tell her that anybody who wants to shoot BO has had idea LONG before Hillary said anything about an unrelated event that happened many years ago.

Is it because she's afraid of the month June and Hillary mentioned June? Well, you've got me there. Obviously, Hillary is a fiend from hell for saying such a thing.

[woo me with science]

7. That poor, distraught, helpless, tearful girl.

Right.

[intheozone]

10. Get a fucking grip already! nt

[cali]

11. oh for the love of reason- something I really do love, could

your post be any more melodramatic and stupid? You don't have a fucking clue how Michelle reacted, but you don't hesitate to simply make grap up.

Get a grip.

[Whisp]

19. maybe you are made of different cloth.

i would be scared as hell if my husband was threatened like that.
and I could also be strong about it.
it's not a one or the other, fool

[Darth_Kitten]

13. Oh! the drama of it all..........

:eyes:

[ShortnFiery]

14. Well Put! I concur with your analysis and thoughtful commentary.

:-) :hi:

[Combative Democrat]

15. I don't understand why Michelle should have been frightened

Was she threatened? Was Obama threatened? Did Hillary's comments which offended neither Obama nor RFK's son represent a threat to her life?

How dramatic.

[Yael]

17. Just because someone is offended, they don't have to wear it on their sleeve

for the population to nod in approval.

RFK is going after her senate seat (please, please, please) and Obama is about to knock the wind out of her sails on the Democratic nomination.

They said what was expedient to say. No need to kick her when she is down.

Leave that to the public and the press. Let them stay above it.

18. Don't imagine, you can see how she handles these things right here-

The heavy presence of security around Obama was also a silent reminder of the change that took place with the announcement. Michelle Obama, the candidate’s wife, acknowledged it in an interview to air on CBS’ “60 Minutes,” in which she was asked if she fears for her husband’s life as a black candidate.

“I don’t lose sleep over it because the realities are that . . . as a black man . . . Barack can get shot going to the gas station,” Michelle Obama said in the interview, set to air Sunday night. “You can’t make decisions based on fear and the possibility of what might happen.”
