First lady got back

I'm a black woman who never thought I'd see a powerful, beautiful female with a body like mine in the White House. Then I saw Michelle Obama -- and her booty!

    Final thoughts on this foolishness (I think)

    Here is my initial reaction when I read this dribble...

    "You've got to be fucking kidding me..."

    I didn't print that because I was trying not to offend but the fact is Joan Walsh & Erin don't seem to have a problem offending me. I have 3 sisters, a young niece and a number of African American female cousins. Their value & contributions to the world far surpass the circumferences' of their butts Ms. Walsh. You owe your readers and apology!
