    Why do people care about this shit?

    It is insulting to be discussing Michelle Obama's ass on Salon. We'll not be talking about any male ass here, just female. Michelle Obama is a Harvard JD with a resume that would qualify her for just about any position or office of leadership in the world. Stories like this just serve to remind her and us that, in the end,[intentional] she'll always be just another black mama with a smackable ass.

    I'll be waiting for the story about Barack's dick and how it validates some male somewhere. Yeah, like that will ever happen.

    The patriarch lobs grenades at women every minute of every day. What I want to know is why is it that the women keep pulling the pins themselves?
