"For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country, because it feels like hope is making a comeback." — Michelle Obama

"I would have thought that two Ivy-League degrees, a joint income of about a million dollars, exclusive private schools for the kids, and a nice home in the suburbs were not so bad and might suggest that hope had made a comeback well before Barack's presidential run." -- Victor Davis Hanson

larry always does things backwards... like laybacking africa to make it more complicated than it really is.

seems he applies the same technique to politics.

Nope, never laybacked Africa, face climbed it off to the right side of the crack :shock:

I just think it's funny that a 44 year old millionaire, who's rightfully taken full advantage of all this country has to offer, has for the first time, found a reason to be proud of her country, sheesh!

Score this one for the lurkist, damn it! :x
To be fair, I think she just didn't think this one through. Politicians, and political wives, have to be careful what they say, for quotes will always be taken out of context for people to have big fun with. I haven't looked into it yet, but rumor has it there are more awkward quotes to be unearthed. I'll let you know if I come across any.

I can see perfectly well why a black person in this country may have had (and continue to have) trouble feeling proud of America.
