Michelle Obama’s noblesse oblige: “I’m willing to make the sacrifices”

By Michelle Malkin  •  April 16, 2008 10:41 AM

Michelle Obama stooped to Stephen Colbert’s level and endured a 7-minute rendezvous with buffoonery to tout The Soul-Fixer’s campaign. Why did she agree to appear? Because Barack is “special” and because, as she so nobly put it, “I’m willing to make the sacrifices.”

She wasn’t kidding.

Colbert prides himself on his talent at spoofing narcissism. Michelle Obama’s narcissism is beyond parody.

Unintentionally funniest line: “Barack and I tend to look at the positives.”

    Rusty, you must have missed all the comments by liberals who claim Laura Bush had killed someone driving drunk. Plus maybe the GOP wives never say anything as controversial as Michelle or Hillary do.

    Government drone #82 – I took Pappa Louie’s remarks as sarcasm and thought it was quite funny.
    Personally – I haven’t been able since the first interview I saw with her. She was playing victim then too. “well Obama could get shot at the gas station” Wellllll – guess what – so can anyone else.
    This was just more of the sos. Poor little me – I have to pay back my student loans – well that was the expectation when you took them out. Its called repsonsibility. Welcome to life.

    Starlightwoman, you get an “A”!

    I just thought that If Michelle Obama is “willing to make the sacrifices” to become First Lady, then I should be willing to make similar sacrifices, such as trading places with a Rich White Person so I could absorb the vitriol from the Left on their behalf. I’m just that kind of guy…

    Why do Republicans go after the wives of presidential nominees? You rarely see that on the other side of the aisle.

    There has been a long list posted here of Leftist insults, but may I mention Senator Edward’s talk about The Cheney family?

    But Mrs Barrack Hussein Obama IS making policy statements and is in fact attacking. That good person is a whole new ball of wax, that and I don’t like her. Perhaps I missed her rendition of “Proud to be an American”.

    Because the wives of Democrat presidential nominees seem to always have such unprecedented influence over their husbands decision making processes.

    And when it comes down to what Mrs Obama is really say’ing in any of her responses or when she speaks to crowds I’m lost!!
    Does anyone out there have a newer copy of “Nu-Speak”(*the living & ever changing PC guide from George Orwell’s 1984)??
    I loved how she said recently in front of a crowd “…Look at me I’m a product of higher public education”.
    (WOW the Perfect Marxist or in “Nu-Speak” a Socialist !!)

    That’s because the left are logically incapable of fisking the things that GOP wives say or do with reasoning.

    The nutroots, of which Rusty is one, are left with wishing ill and/or death, mocking the injuries and hoping for more tragedy in order to make their bitter lives somehow meaningful. Chew on that Rusty, lgm and compadres.

    The video is no longer available! Michelle must have called YouTube and threatened to have hubby-bhoo shut them down for being so mean as to show her in a bad light.
