I Am Ashamed of Michelle Obama's America

With Michelle Obama still defending her statements about "being proud of America for the first time in her life," I must say that with people like Michelle Obama rising to power, I've never been more ashamed of America. Conversley, up until recently, I've always been proud of my country.

With Liberals knowingly trying to defund the war in Iraq, handing out more government welfare, trying to take control of corporate oil companies, taking "windfall" profits from private business owners, increasing regulations on businesses, forcing business owners to provide company paid health insurance, voting to support gay marriage, allowing foreign terrorists access to our court system, Homeland Security employees terrorizing innocent Americans through airports, congress causing the rise in oil prices, congress refusing to address alternative energy exploration and drilling, unions runnning local elections, liberal-run schools not being able to graduate literate kids, 50% drop out rate in colleges the first year, affirmative action still being practiced in a state that voted to end it...

Must I keep going? These are all failed liberal programs, liberal ideas. With so many Americans abandoning the work ethic of our parents and grandparents, and instead, holding their hands out for freebies, I am ashamed of Michelle Obama's America.

While she is escorted around in limosines, wears designer clothing and jewelry, has makeup and hair stylists, whines about the cost of music lessons and summer camp, and tells regular Americans thast we need to work harder and not be so greedy...While Michelle Obama received a plush corporate job on the Board of a major hospital once her husband was elected to the Illinois senate, and tells tomorrow's college graduates to skip the corporate job and instead become a teacher or nurse, we need to remind each other of her words versus her how she lives.

Michelle Obama is as big of a hypocrite as is her husband. She's loving the fame, the fortune, the star treatment and status, but thinks that those of us who run businesses and work at 8-5 jobs should pay more taxes (because we are greedy), to support more welfare for those who don't work. She obviously isn't living in fear of her own tax status with her fame and wealth: she' got loopholes now and a bevy of lawyers and accountants to keep her taxes unnaturally low (think Theresa Heinz Kerry with her 5% tax rate). She's a phony and she's scary.

Michelle Obama makes me embarassed to have to share a national identity with her. She's militant, angry, and extremist and now she's the latest media darling. Who are the dummies that don't see Michelle and Barrack for the opportunistic phonies they are?
