As much as we repeatedly (and deservedly) rip her husband, Barack, a “new one” for plunging this nation deeper into an anti-competitive, debt-laden, socialist abyss, we can’t help but like Michelle Obama.
Sure, somewhere in our heart of hearts we know she’s every bit as committed to “communism we can believe in” as he is, and that her role in this whole process is to be the sweet, soft-spoken elegance that softens the hard-edged, repressive ideology espoused by the Obama administration.
And guess what … it’s working. If Michelle Obama was the forbidden fruit, we’d be taking ourselves a big ole bite – and coming back for seconds.
As much as some people like to mock her “Black Widow” fashion faux pas, her “Muslim” fist-bumping and the length of her various limbs, we remain hopelessly enamored with the First Lady.
Seriously, people … she hula hoops and double Dutch jump ropes. How cool is that?
In fact, our founding editor is positively smitten with the First Lady- calling us in the middle of her appearance last night on the Jay Leno show and demanding that we immediately begin voicing our support for universal health care (with a public option), a massive energy tax increase and yet another bureaucratic bailout.
“They had a birthday party for (First dog) Bo,” he told us between sobs. “With little veal doggie cakes.”
Oh boy. This could get ugly.
Anyway, it’s a crush that began when Mrs. Obama granted FITS a rare, exclusive interview in the wake of the controversy surrounding former SCGOP activist Rusty DePass, who earlier this year compared her to an escaped gorilla at a South Carolina zoo.
Yeah, for realsies.
It seems in any setting she’s a cool customer … a genuine article … a woman who comes off as ten times more authentic than her hifalutin (and lofreemarket) husband.
Why Barack isn’t using her more effectively to sell his ideas we’ll never know … or maybe his ideas are so bad that even a woman of Michelle’s stature can’t sell them.
Still, we wouldn’t mind watching her try …

Little veal doggie cakes? Well, as much as I’m no fan of Barry, I at least appreciate that he doesn’t give a damn about the radical extremist at PETA/HSUS. First, he murders a fly on camera and jokes about how the wackos might react, and now he feeds his dog tortured (in their eyes) baby cow cakes, and has his wife announce it on national TV (even if nobody appears to be watching). Good for BO. At least there’s one group of radical lefty extremists he won’t try to woo.

Michelle is one of the few celebrities with SC connections that has made us proud this year. Unfortunately, she had to leave the state to do so.

President Obama is doing just fine selling his ideas.

Sure those so called short shorts didn’t sway you too Sic?
Her attire screams extremism imho. Either spot on or dead wrong, rarely in the middle. Unfortunately the outrageous outfits leave the lasting impression, so opposite Jackie O.

She was never more beautiful than when she showed up at the homeless shelter sporting $800.00 designer shoes…
