I'm really not surprised to see people attacking Michelle Obama....

....for speaking out against the kidnappers of the Nigerian girls.

Expect much more of this as the election approaches. The other side is pretty much unable to attack Dems over Obamacare because of its success, so they will throw anything and everything to see what sticks.

1. It's just unfortunate to see it on this board

Calling FLOTUS a hypocrite for speaking out about the kidnapping of children. Boggles my mind.

4. That was not an actual story or blog on that website. That was the poster's own rant. They

then wrote one sentence and added the link based on the one sentence. (it was the stat on how much $ there was in trafficking). The website is for a NGO partially funded by our government that aides traffic victims in the US and works on combating trafficking. I was ready to boycott the group until I realized that was one individual's rant that they tried to make look legitimate. Sad and pathetic if you ask me.

7. Absolutely

Very sad.

2. It will not

result in the response they hope for.

3. She's a tool of the US military industrial complex,

pushing to invade Nigeria so we can steal its oil. She's no better than Rumsfeld, really.

5. Well, she is better looking than Rummy...

[okaawhatever]

6. If u r referring to the story posted earlier, that was not a published blog or article, it was the

rantings of one DUer, ellenrr. The link was to the final sentence, the one that said trafficking was a $670 million dollar business. The organization the link went to is a reputable organization funded by the US government to help combat trafficking. Don't confuse the hateful rant of 1 DUer with a greater movement.

8. Ya....it's odd to see a post like that on DU

Of course you expect other websites to attack Michelle...that post on DU was a new low.

9. It is rather disturbing to see that kind of vitriole directed at michelle Obama on DU

Granted the poster had almost no agreement ... I think the one post in agreement was hidden.

It was disturbing nonetheless
