First It Was About Her Attitude, Then Her Hair, Then Her Arms, Then Her Butt, Now First Lady Obama Is In Trouble With White Folks Over Her Legs
What's next, her teeth, her feet, her fingers? The last time a black woman was observed so closely and personally was during slavery on the auction block. This crap is way beyond "First Lady" fashion observations. Whether you like the shorts or not, what I like about Michelle Obama is that she tries her level best to ALWAYS be herself. A real woman, not plastic. It's hot as hell in August, particularly in Arizona. Folks need to mind their damn business, get a life and give the First Lady some private space!

I tuned out a long time ago. They'll criticize a piece of lint flying the vicinity of M.O...
They won't be happy until she's seen at a Walmart shopping while wearing a head scarf and hair rollers.
Oh no my dear! Can't you hear it? With every "scandal" report on the First Lady, you can hear walls cracking...
This isn't the (please pardon the expression, I can't think of a better word) silent but obedient house Mammy that many thought she was... no, no, she is a vibrant, smart and sexy woman.
Look at the picture of her walking! Confidence radiates from her and her daughter....She bows to no one and "they" know it...Notice that there are no formal statements from her or the WH on this - as my grandma would say "she ain't stuttin them"..
"They" better get used to it...change is gonna come...
The media always comes across like petty, shallow, bitchy mean girls when they report on the First Lady.
She wears shorts-OH MY! Spare me the pretentions of the fashion set.
Why is this even news? They are shorts not a g-string bikini bottom.
If she pops out of Air Force One looking like she just came off a meth binge and hasn't washed in 3 weeks- then that is a story.
By the way, her legs look fantastic! Work it First Lady. Work it.
She has inspired me to improve the muscle tone in my arms and legs.
They even have that mess in the French news papers that she's wearing short shorts. I told the HuffPost that short shorts equal buttocks being exposed and not the shorts that she's wearing. The issue of objectifying BW has not gone away, beacuse you've got men who break women down into body parts and a lot of women doing the same things with that who wore it best garbage. There is no need to compare, but some folks just can't help it.
@The Muse - LOL!
@Tracy - Well said and I agree!
@Divalocity - You said it, girl!
@Rippa - LMAO!
What is the big deal about a pair of shorts? A pretty smart black woman is just something some folks can't deal with. lol
It's amazing how every little thing the Obama's say or do is suddenly a scandal. Obama is by far the most intelligent president we've had in my 31 years, and Michelle Obama is an inspiration for women. She's intelligent, successful, a great mother, and beautiful. Who cares what she's wearing?
What pisses me off is that NONE of the other First Ladies were scrutinized regarding their LOOKS, but rather what they did or didn't do during their husband's administrations.
Case in point, yesterday on Jay Leno's Jaywalking segment, he showed a picture of Eleanor and Franklin Roosevelt and asked the blonde twit contestants if they knew who the man in the picture was.
One of the silicone jobs says, "Which man?"...implying that Eleanor looks like a man. The audience was so offended and gasped as well as boo'ed her comment.
Eleanor WAS UGLY, but God forbid that ANYONE disrespect her the way they do Michelle...SICKENING!!
