She had no right to make a speech, plain and simple. it isn't family politics, you dont elect the best family, you elect a president. More proof he
isn't ready yet.

That is one of the silliest statements I've read thus far. This is a political convention, a high end meet and greet, if you will. And that, whether
you like it or not, includes anyone this particular party wishes to include on the stage.
Believe me, when it comes time for the Republican National Convention, you are going to see the exact same thing occur. McCain's wife will be
standing by her husband's side, and there is a very strong possibility that she will say a few words herself. Why? Because it is a meet and greet.
Michelle Obama's speech is not any kind of indication as to whether Obama is presidential material. She is a strong, intelligent, articulate woman
who is a fitting compliment to Barack.

You are exactly what the libs are all about,you flame when someone questions Obama and then make these"bottom feeder" remarkes about McCain's
wife.Your a total hypocrite.
As far as Obama's wife's speech,she has been controled as they put it.Her speech probably made her sick,that was not who she is.
Have you all seen the setting for Obama's speech,this guy really does think he is a GOD.

The following is my opinion as a member participating in this discussion. I really don't care whether or not you were impressed by her speech or not...nor do I think you're jealous.
I liked the speech for what it was, a fine piece of political drama. Ultimately meaningless.
You may, or may not, have noticed, I'm one of the few around here who have no axe to grind, for what ever reason.
Personally? I think most all of you need to take a deep breath and back off the rhetoric a trifle. But that's just me...

Mr. and Mrs. Obama IMO do not know what its like to a middle class person in these days and times. Mrs. Obama's speech did nothing but further
influence me to NOTE Vote for her Husband.
Very true, and the Obama's keep reiterating that each of them grew up with struggling single mothers. What a load of BS!
Obama was with his single Mom for not even 10 years, and during that time, she married a rich Indonesian Muslim. After she brought Obama to the
Grandparents in Hawaii, he had it even better! His Grandparents are/were rich bankers.
Michelle, she grew up rich.
They have no idea what it's like to go from paycheck to paycheck.
If they did, Obama wouldn't be saying "Inflate your tires" to save Gas.
Obama would also not be saying, well "eat out less and don't drive as much".
It's rediculous.
All the Obama's want are 300 million slaves.
Not gonna happin.
Hey JetX...The structure of your posts...the "appearance" of having some knowledge about Obama's biography and then what can only be described as a
conscious decision to distort/omit and flat out lie...well you seem to do a lot of cut and paste from the farthest of the right wing web sites.
That and always the FEAR thing. The favorite of any propagandist...You weren't even being subtle "All the Obama's want are 300 million slaves.
"
Always end a propaganda piece with FEAR. Like the period on a sentence.
Let's start here jet...you said she was "married a rich indonesian muslim" and in an earlier post you called him a "Rich oil man"
You mean the geoligist turned government laison/translator for mobil oil? Soetero?
Actually given what I have seen you post over the last several months, I will just assume you are lieing unless I see a Source.

I think she did good from what I saw. I think she would make a great 1st lady. However, I focus on the canditates rather than their wives.
I just hope, with all my heart, that Obama wins the election. Finally there is a man of the people running for president.
McCain doesn't know many houses he own. President Bush Junior and his dad President Bush Senior, they are -so- extremely rich people. Are you sure
that United States is truly a democrazy when these rich guys get to be president and then the rich guys son becomes president too? Just think about
that for a while..
Barack Obama represents the ordinary American. He is unique because he did not start with billions of dollars. He doesn't represent the super rich or
special interests shady corporations. His success comes from the support from the average American.
It's a mystery to me why there is a republican president. When McCain got a question whats considered to be rich he replied that you're rich if you
earn 5 mil usd / year or more. So if you earn like 4 mils a year, you're struggling I guess.. What planet is he from?!?!? These extremely rich
people doesn't get it.
With lies and distortion and a BUNCH of money they manage to get elected though. I hope this is the year when americans take back their power, by
voting for Barack.

It's very possible as Obama's sexual orientation is highly questionable in lieu of the murder of his supposed former gay lover and another gay man
that claims doing Coke etc. with Obama.
Obama is an engineered candidate. What you see now was planned several years ago, including his switch to Christianity (while remaining Muslim).

The following is my opinion as a member participating in this discussion.
Just what are you hoping to accomplish by making such outlandish statements. It is sad to see someone who cannot reasonably debate real issues resort
to smear tactics.
And, please don't even try to deny or justify your actions. Your character defamations are lame enough as it is, and you'll only look more
foolish.
That said, Michelle Obama did a magnificent job delivering her speech at the DNC.

Kucinich rocked! He is just adorable. A small man with a big message. Hasn't it always been that way?
WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!! he exclaimed to a nation you can just tell that he
loves. He was a genuine crowd rouser full of the old populist approach that the Democrats were once known for in the 1930s through the 1950s.
I think it's pretty telling that he got the really pretty lady for a wife too. She sees more in him than just his appearance.

I've read hundreds of posts on here about the candidates and many of them have said things like "she's hot", and "wow what a hottie" and things
of that nature about Palin, but none about Mrs. Obama. Am I the only one that see's some bias here? I mean, I happen to think that Michelle Obama
is absolutely stunning in the good looks department, but what the hell does that have to do with positions on the issues?
I guess my point is, that we shouldn't be voting for someone based on looks or personality or the way they speak, or anything other than the way they
stand on the issues. Part of my point also is that, like it or not, some folks will only say that the white republican woman is "pretty" while
democrats and other races women get no "good looks" remarks.
Just like all the white folks in the audience, and I mean all the white folks (because that was all you saw) at the publican convention vs. all the
diversity in ethnicity at the Democratic party convention, there are folks who will only see beuty in white republican females when in actuallity
beauty is within all folks and that includes males, females, blacks, whites, asians, hispanics, gay and lesbians, and all human beings.
I just find it peculiar that so many say she is pretty, but not one post that I have seen says the same thing for Michelle Obama, or Hillary Clinton,
or Barack, or anyone other than Palin? I think that should tell us something.
