Isn't she lovely?

In her prime-time speech Monday, Michelle Obama foiled her harshest detractors and perhaps even won over Middle America.

    Valiant efforts, Mr. Hutman

    ...But I fear you are wasting your time. Nobody comes to the internet for "facts" or "logic." Nobody in these letters has shown any desire to have an actual discourse, its just talking points and intellectual wankery. Kennedy is a drunk, because of a tragic event from 20+ years ago. Michelle Obama wears wigs made from the hair of poor Indian women, because theres no way she got HER nappy hair that straight. Yeah, that's right, I suggested wig woman is a racist. And you know what the best part is? This is the internet, so I don't need any proof or credentials to make my claim. I can be an anonymous condescending asshole and say any stupid thing I want, and people will read it.

    All that being said, thanks for trying.
