Michelle Obama Responds to Palin’s Pokes
February 9th, 2010
Michelle Obama defended her husband against some of his most vocal critics, saying President Obama did a “phenomenal” job this year and that change is a long-term process.
The first lady talks about her nationwide campaign called “Let’s Move.”
“I think my husband has done a phenomenal job staying on course, looking his critics in the eye, coming up with clear solutions against staying the course,” Michelle Obama told Robin Roberts in an exclusive morning television interview on “Good Morning America.” “That’s what leadership is. But people have the right to criticize the president of the United States.”
Michelle Obama’s comments came in response to recent criticism from Sarah Palin, who told Tea Party conventioneers in Nashville, Tenn., this weekend that she wants to ask Obama supporters, “How is that hope-y, change-y stuff working out for you?”
Comment by American Grand Jury:
Michelle, “you are as stupid as your husband.” The vast majority of Americans want nothing to do with Zero’s plans for our Country. If he did such a “phenomenal” job this past year why are you now trying to defend it? “PHENOMENAL.. sure, and the horse you rode in on!”

She is as bad as her husband, she is suppose to be a lawyer, but I read her license to practice law has been put on “inactive” whatever that is, she is no longer able to practice law. Obama also, unalble to practice and nobody seems to care that these two likable black people are doing something very illegal. Some day it will catch up with them, she knows he is not a legal president and will admit it someday as she blabs about living in a mean country, then she will see just how mean Americans can be with somebody who has committed fraud etc. God Bless America and suppose to pray for enemies, O Psalm 109:8 maybe this will happen sooner.

Michelle sweety, you’ll just have to get over it, remember we are the mean spirited people of this country.
Are you still proud of us, I hope so. I know it must be tough being First Lady Liar but you will just have to get use to it. It must be a shock to find out that we are not quite as stupid and assinine as you and the Liar in Chief thought we were, but then you had to wake up sometime.
You know I have to agree with her, her husband did do a phenomenal job staying on course. I remember exactly what he said he was going to do. Level the playing field, decimate our military, reform the Constitution, transform our country into a socialist, communist, marxist, fascist place to live and he has been keeping his promises. The only thing he has done that he didn’t warn us about is the part about lying to us on a daily basis and wandering all over the world apologizing for us and bowing to all the would be’s.
As for her law degree, I read somewhere a few months back about some trouble she got into with some of her Chicago co-horts. Surprise, surprise.

A Letter from Granpa! Just how good is this! John G. Is 63 years old and owns a small business. He’s a life-long Republican and sees his dream of retiring next year has all but evaporated. With the stock market crashing and new taxes coming his way, John assumes now that he will work to his dying day.
John has a granddaughter. Ashley is a recent college grad. She drives a flashy hybrid car, wears all the latest fashions, and loves to go out to nightclubs and restaurants. Ashley campaigned hard for Barack Obama. After the election she made sure her grandfather (and all other Republican family members) received a big I told-you-so earful on how the world is going to be a much better place now that her party is taking over.
Having lost both roommates, Ashley recently ran short of cash and cannot pay the rent (again) on her 3 bedroom townhouse. Like she has done many times in the past, she e-mailed her grandfather asking for some financial help.
Here is his reply:
Sweetheart, I received your request for assistance.
Ashley, you know I love you dearly and I ‘m sympathetic to your financial plight. Unfortunately, times have changed. With the election of President Obama, your grandmother and I have had to set forth a bold new economic plan of our own…”The Ashley Economic Empowerment Plan.” Let me explain.
Your grandmother and I are life-long, wage-earning taxpayers. We have lived a comfortable life, as you know, but we have never had the fancier things like European vacations, luxury cars, etc. We have worked hard and were looking forward to retiring soon. But the plan has changed. Your president is raising our personal and business taxes significantly. He says it is so he can give our hard-earned money to other people. Do you know what this means, Ashley? It means less for us, and we must cut back on many business and personal expenses.
You know the wonderful receptionist who worked in my office for more than 23 years? The one who always gave you candy when you came over to visit? I had to let her go last week. I can’t afford to pay her salary and all of the government mandated taxes that go with having employees. Your grandmother will now work 4 days a week to answer phones, take orders and handle the books. We will be closed on Fridays and will lose even more income to Wal-Mart.
I’m also very sorry to report that your cousin Frank will no longer be working summers in the warehouse. I called him at school this morning. He already knows about it and he’s upset because he will have to give up skydiving and his yearly trip to Greenland to survey the polar bears.
That’s just the business side of things. Some personal economic effects of Obama’s new taxation policies include none other than you. You know very well that over the years your grandmother and I have given you thousands of dollars in cash, tuition assistance, food, housing, clothing, gifts, etc., etc. But, by your vote, you have chosen to help others — not at your expense — but at our expense.
If you need money now sweetheart, I recommend you call 202-456-1111 202-456-1111 202-456-1111 202-456-1111 . That is the direct phone number for the White House. You can also contact the White House here: http://www/..whitehouse.gov/CONTACT/ .
You yourself told me how foolish it is to vote Republican. You said Mr. Obama is going to be the People’s President, and is going to help every American live a better life. Based on everything you’ve told me, along with all the promises we heard during the campaign, I’m sure Mr. Obama will be happy to transfer some stimulus money into your bank account. Have him call me for the account number which I memorized years ago.
Perhaps you can now understand what I’ve been saying all my life: those who vote for a president should consider the impact on the nation as a whole, and not just be concerned with what they can get for themselves. What Obama supporters don’t seem to realize is all of the money he is redistributing to illegal aliens and non-taxpaying Americans (the so-called “less fortunate”) comes from tax-paying families.
Remember how you told me, “Only the richest of the rich will be affected”? Well, guess what, honey? Because we own a business, your grandmother and I are now considered to be the ‘richest of the rich.’ On paper, it might look that way, but in the real world, we are far from it.
As you said while campaigning for Obama, some people will have to carry more of the burden so all of America can prosper. You understand what that means, right? It means that raising taxes on productive people results in them having less money; less money for everything, including granddaughters.
I’m sorry, Ashley, but the well has run dry. The free lunches are over. I have no money to give you now. So, congratulations on your choice for “change.” For future reference, I encourage you to try and add up the total value of the gifts and cash you have received from us, just since you went off to college, and compare it to what you expect to get from Mr. Obama over the next 4 (or 8, God help us) years. I have not kept track of it, Ashley. It has all truly been the gift of our hearts.
Remember, we love you dearly….but, from now on, you’ll need to call the number mentioned above. Your “Savior” has the money we would have given to you. Just try and get it from him.
Good luck, sweetheart.
Love, Grandpa

“The first lady talks about her nationwide campaign called “Let’s Move.”
Yeah, great idea! Move out of the White House. Move to a hut somewhere in Kenya and bring with you lover “Reggie” boy! If you miss you 27 servants that take cares of you right now, well maybe you can hired 27 slaves in Kenya.
Gumply,
I read in summer 2008 that Michelle lost her lawyer license because of Insurance fraud… but the article has been scrubbed since.
February 10th, 2010 at 12:41 am
Michele or Michael,she’s probably whatever Obama wants her to be. She was barred for “Patient Dumping” and God only knows what else. AS like o’s bc this is sealed. I would say BHusseinObama has been phenomenal in how about spending money,more than the last 10 presidents combined! He can’t be taken out of there fast enough for me. The republican party needs to get some backbone,standup and start demanding documents,before we the people do it for them. It’s coming.
February 10th, 2010 at 12:48 am
The Truth (#3),
LOL… excellent response from grandfather!
February 10th, 2010 at 2:12 am
Oh wow what a cool letter from “Grandpa”!!!!!!!!!! Guess little Ashley is gnashing her teeth after that one. lol Cracks me up!! Spoiled, stupid kids. Ya gotta love ‘em!

The Founders/Framers had no intentions, what-so-ever, of permitting NON- U.S. immigrants to install their offspring as Commander in Chief of the United States Armed Forces & Chief Magistrate of the Nation aka “The President”
Why the hell do you think we had a Revolution in this Land?!
What was it that we found so “revolting” about the practices & traditions of our barbarous ancestry? Hint for those of you that are a bit slow on the uptake: Read my opening passage, again
ARTICLE II SEC1 CL 5
NATURAL BORN CITIZEN=BORN OF CITIZEN PARENTS-ON THE SOIL UNITY OF CIT AT BIRTH NOTHING SHORT OF THIS PRESCRIPTION IS ACCEPTABLE NBC IS NOT A RIGHT IT IS THE PATH YOU TRAVELED TO YOUR CITIZENSHIP GRADE
February 10th, 2010 at 10:13 am
I find it interesting that since the FRAUD’s poll numbers are so low they are now sending Mrs. FRAUD out to do the PR because she has higher numbers…..YUCK…..she’s as big a problem as he is…..how are her numbers any better…..she was on Good Morning America yesterday and then last night she was on Larry King…..both Progressive loving networks but still disgusting…..frankly I have had enough of both of their MUGS…..the only place I want to see their MUGS is behind bars in a prison!!

“I think my husband has done a phenomenal job staying on course…
Yes he has…The problem is, most Americans don’t like his ‘course’ which seems to be to cripple America financially and militarily, and eventually deliver us to the UN, Islam, and sharia law…His efforts in these directions so far have been phenomenal…which is why he, and his henchmen have to be stopped…Maybe Dr Manning, and AGJ with the help of some friends, can throw a major monkey wrench in that ‘phenomenal’ job…
February 10th, 2010 at 9:34 pm
AGJ responded, in part: “If he did such a “phenomenal” job this past year why are you now trying to defend it? “PHENOMENAL.. sure, and the horse you rode in on!”

I don’t think she came in on a horse. An ass, more like.

A great article by an expert in cultural anthropology who bares all of the sordid details of the impostor in chief, with the exception of his criminal ineligibility!
Dr. Hunt is a social and cultural anthropologist. He has had nearly 30 years experience in planning, conducting, and managing research in the field of youth studies, and drug and alcohol research. Currently Dr. Hunt is a Senior Research Scientist at the Institute for Scientific Analysis and the Principal Investigator on three National Institutes on Health projects. He is also a writer for American Thinker.

An article from American Thinker by Geoffrey P. Hunt
Anatomy of a Failing Presidency
Barack Obama is on track to have the most spectacularly failed presidency since Woodrow Wilson. In the modern era, we’ve seen several failed presidencies–led by Jimmy Carter and LBJ. Failed presidents have one strong common trait– they are repudiated, in the vernacular, spat out. Of course, LBJ wisely took the exit ramp early, avoiding a shove into oncoming traffic by his own party. Richard Nixon indeed resigned in disgrace, yet his reputation as a statesman has been partially restored by his triumphant overture to China 20.
But, Barack Obama is failing. Failing big. Failing fast. And failing everywhere: foreign policy, domestic initiatives, and most importantly, in forging connections with the American people. The incomparable Dorothy Rabinowitz in the Wall Street Journal put her finger on it: He is failing because he has no understanding of the American people, and may indeed loathe them. Fred Barnes of the Weekly Standard says he is failing because he has lost control of his message, and is overexposed. Clarice Feldman of American Thinker produced a dispositive commentary showing that Obama is failing because fundamentally he is neither smart nor articulate; his intellectual dishonesty is conspicuous by its audacity and lack of shame.
But, there is something more seriously wrong: How could a new president riding in on a wave of unprecedented promise and goodwill have forfeited his tenure and become a lame duck in six months? His poll ratings are in free fall. In generic balloting, the Republicans have now seized a five point advantage. This truly is unbelievable. What’s going on?
No narrative. Obama doesn’t have a narrative. No, not a narrative about himself. He has a self-narrative, much of it fabricated, cleverly disguised or written by someone else. But this self-narrative is isolated and doesn’t connect with us. He
doesn’t have an American narrative that draws upon the rest of us. All successful presidents have a narrative about the American character that intersects with their own where they display a command of history and reveal an authenticity at the core of their personality that resonates in a positive endearing way with the majority of Americans. We admire those presidents whose narratives not only touch our own, but who seem stronger, wiser, and smarter than we are. Presidents we
admire are aspirational peers, even those whose politics don’t align exactly with our own: Teddy Roosevelt, FDR, Harry
Truman, Ike, and Reagan.
But not this president. It’s not so much that he’s a phony, knows nothing about economics, and is historically illiterate and woefully small minded for the size of the task–all contributory of course. It’s that he’s not one of us. And whatever he is,
his profile is fuzzy and devoid of content, like a cardboard cutout made from delaminated corrugated paper. Moreover, he doesn’t command our respect and is unable to appeal to our own common sense. His notions of right and wrong are repugnant and how things work just don’t add up. They are not existential. His descriptions of the world we live in don’t make sense and don’t correspond with our experience.
In the meantime, while we’ve been struggling to take a measurement of this man, he’s dissed just about every one of us–financiers, energy producers, banks, insurance executives, police officers, doctors, nurses, hospital administrators, post office
workers, and anybody else who has a non-green job. Expect Obama to lament at his last press conference in 2012: “For those of you I offended, I apologize. For those of you who were not offended, you just didn’t give me enough time; if only I’d had a second term, I could have offended you too.”
Mercifully, the Founders at the Constitutional Convention in 1787 devised a useful remedy for such a desperate state–staggered terms for both houses of the legislature and the executive. An equally abominable Congress can get voted out next year. With a new Congress, there’s always hope of legislative gridlock until we vote for president again two short years after that.
Yes, small presidents do fail, Barack Obama among them. The coyotes howl but the wagon train keeps rolling along.

Dr Al (#12),
“…who bares all of the the sordid details of the impostor in chief, with the exception of his criminal ineligibility!”
Well in a way he says it when he mentions that: “It’s that he’s not one of us.”

Michele Obama is grasping at straws trying to defend her communist usurper husband. She is as much of a disgrace as he is. Spending $500.00 for a pair of tennis shoes, stopping for a “snack” at the Waldorf Astoria for a whopping total of $447.00 (the snack was
lobster etc.), the cocktail parties at the White House
at taxpayer expense, and the list just continues.
Not bad for being married to a illegal communist usurper.
Years ago my Grandmother had a saying about this type of thing and it went like this, “There is no accounting for taste said the old maid as she kissed the cow”.
Michele Obama is one classless individual, and so is our illegal usurper and chief.
