Michelle Obama a slam dunk on 'The View'.

The Presumptive Nominee is a happy man right about now. He's fist-bumping whoever he's coming into contact with. He's thinking, "maybe I should make MICHELLE the vice president - hey, Hill was veep to Bill during two terms..." He's thinking, "what did Whoopi just say...Oh, it doesn't matter." He's thinking, "man, that dress was expensive but it was worth every PENNY." He's thinking, "behind every successful man, there's a woman...No, I better NOT think that. That's sexist as all get out. Hill would take me to town on that one...doesn't matter, she's not running anymore. Or is she...?"


...

I'm no Freud, but her sub-conscious seems to match her conscious pretty nicely, if this outing was any indication. She was funny, smart, interesting and - most important - likeable. She even said nice and remarkably disarming stuff about Laura Bush. Michelle O - you don't mind if I call you "Michelle O," do you Michelle? - was seated in the middle of our kaffee klatch crew, and joked immediately (again, shrewdly) about the bump: "It's my signature bump," and Whoopi comes back with a good ice breaker (not that there was any ice to break) with, "you should be really happy it's not a chest bump."

...

Michelle O stepped up to the plate, squared away, and saw a big fat pitch come right down the middle - without ANY heat or motion - connected, and sent that sucker right into the parking lot:

"My answer, and people have asked me this before, is that the one thing that a nominee earns is a right to pick the vice president that they think will best reflect their vision for the country. And I'm just glad I will have nothing to do with it."

Oh, you're good, Michelle O. You're very good.

5. That one worked. Thanks.

[NatBurner]

6. good lord, the comments

:(

[high density]

8. Every news or blog comment section under the sun is filled with right wingers

My local paper has it. I guess these people are unemployed and have nothing else to do.

[Drunken Irishman]

11. I never read the comments.

Ever.

[blondeatlast]

12. The opening paragraph is a (pardon the pun) "tip-off" that this is really a veiled hit piece.

I'm kind of sorry I posted a good link.

[Drunken Irishman]

14. It wasn't a hit piece.

The comments, however, are trash.

You just have to ignore 'em.

[1Hippiechick]

36. I think it most assuredly was a slap at Michelle Obama - go back and delete the damn link!

edited to correct spelling.....duh

[muffin1]

10. Did you check out the user comments at the bottom?

Apparently, "Joe" doesn't like Michelle because she was once quoted as saying "I am ashamed of my country".
Well, first of all, who ISN'T sometimes (especially the last 7 years)? Secondly, SHE NEVER SAID THAT!
God, save us from idiots.

[NatBurner]

15. basically

"Secondly, SHE NEVER SAID THAT!"

^they can't even hate correctly

[Fleshdancer]

7. I can't believe I'm about to say this, but.....

I'm actually bummed about missing an episode of The View. Who knew THAT was possible? Damn you Michelle! :rofl:

MSNBC is taunting me by showing clips from this morning so now I have to go on a YouTube and google hunt.

[Blu Dahlia]

9. me too. hope it's put online somewhere :(

[butterfly77]

26. I usually go to the ABCdaytime website and click on the show...

and look at any missed shows...

[Fleshdancer]

35. I completely forgot about the abc website...

pretty silly of me considering I watch LOST there all the time. Thanks for the reminder! :)

[ElsewheresDaughter]

13. She is going to be a FINE First Lady!!!

[sandnsea]

16. What's with your sig line?

If it's supposed to be funny, it's not. It is really just a continuation of Obama hatred, disguised as an attack on McCain.

[Cha]

17. It's a freakin' ugly

sig line..that's for sure.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

20. REALLY? wo why would you say that?...it is a Maya Angeluo quote

[sandnsea]

21. I'm sure she wouldn't think it was funny either

Disgusting to put that quote next to a "parity" of an Obama poster.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

23. oh it's the parity poster you find distasteful....i thinks it's great

I'm sorry that you don't.

hmm I'll be sure to rudely inform you in a public way the next time I see something about you I find distasteful...nice manners



thanks for the un-lesson.

[sandnsea]

25. It's the combination of the two that is an attack on Obama

and you know it because you've done little more than that for months now. I was informing you rather than alerting. Next time I won't bother.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

30. how dare you accuse me of any such attack.....get over your effing self!!

[wvbygod]

28. not this shit again

When did the sig police force get established?

[sandnsea]

29. It's the not attacking the candidate force n/t

32. Thank you for the sweet comment!

:thumbsup:

[Cha]

18. Awesome report on Michelle's appearance

on The View! Thank you, DIrish!

[mzmolly]

19. I hope it will be youtubed soon? I missed it.

K and R, thanks for the report.

[Pisces]

22. She was beautiful and handled herself well. America will connect with this mother!!

[Colobo]

24. There goes the GOP's only hope...

[wvbygod]

27. Yes, and her speaking to Hillary's glass ceiling comment was wonderful

The enthusiasm in her voice and face as she highlighted Hillary's comments was very refreshing
and the two appear to have connected, and are working well together.

31. K & R

33. The bump thing was very cool and so glad she gave the greeting its true meaning...

Faux news are just not down with what's cool

[barack the house]

34. Michelle looked incredibly beautiful today. The love we show her is making her bloom.
