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!

    All you had to write about was her backside???

    Reading Salon is like having 7-UP mixed with Grey Goose randomly.

    You never know when its going to kick.

    Trivializing a perfectly serious person does not do any good to Salon. My God, what were you smoking???

    I mean, have you EVER looked at Jacqueline Kennedy???

    Stop comparing Michelle with Jackie. They are literally poles apart in every sense: and i mean everything.

    Dumb salon editors.
