    Thanks, galleymac!

    I see we must fight on for the right for the first black first lady to be treated like a human being. Broadsheet has posted an article about the controversy.

    Good old Broadsheet. Always on the look out for the rights of women everywhere -- unless they are garnering page hits out of exploiting the rights of women everywhere.
