She was talking about everyone's stereotypes about other groups, and she wasn't wrong.

    My question is, is this that much different than what has been done to other spouses? Hillary was the evil bitch-queen/feminatzi/marxist/fascist (which, btw, is the way many Obama supporters see her now, except they don't think she's really a feminist) who dared to somehow think she could displace 'America's grandmother', Barbara Bush. Teresa Heinz Kerry was the spoiled, elitist, domineering biotch who deigned to grace us with her presence. Most Republicans acted like it was a major crisis for the country that she would breathe the same air that circulated around the sainted Laura Bush.

    What is being done to Michelle Obama may be being done with slightly different rhetoric, but it is no new invention, and shouldn't be viewed as new. Or, did I imagine what went on with Hillary Clinton and Teresa Heinz Kerry? Or, is it just now objectionable to a new set of people because, well, it's being done to Michelle Obama? Really, I'm just confused. Do I have a frigging longer memory about these things than other people????
