Michelle Obama Apologizes: My Remarks Were Plagiarized
Michelle Obama's comments recently raised eyebrows when she claimed, "For the first time in my adult lifetime, I’m really proud of my country.” In a prepared statement, Michelle Obama apologized claiming that her comments, much like her husband's speeches, were plagiarized. "America is a tremendous source of pride, not just because Obama is doing well in the elections. Other states are very proud to be American, even states that voted for Hillary Clinton." The speech, which reflects little pride in American accomplishments, was written for another great leader, but unfortunately that leader is stepping down after 49 years in power. Michelle vowed that her apology was sincere and from the heart. She says that she was and still is, proud to be an American but that "it depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is." 61 Responses To "Michelle Obama Apologizes: My Remarks Were Plagiarized"
Original sentiments or not (and I believe they are), she does not deserve the privilege of residing in the executive mansion at 1600 Pennsylvania. America hating biotch. This story is some kind of cracker lie! I never said that! This country was a cesspool of crazy cracker corruption till my hubby ran for president! Now, I can be proud! #2 - Posted by: Michelle Obama on February 19, 2008 02:18 PMWOW, Ms Obama... That's a racist comment you made there.... show's a lot of hate for white people. Which is why I don't believe she ( Ms. Obama) made it. This is exactly the way a Muslim would think. They hate this country. Obama's wife speaks the truth. She was never proud of this country, even though 14 years ago she was making $51K as a clerk and now makes over $400K having been granted many new positions due solely to her husband's status. Obama and his clan hate this country. They are just taking it for the ride that they know they can because of the fredoms they enjoy. Obama does not deserve to be President nor Commander in Chief. He wants the military gone so he can wage his own war over the peoples of the world, just like his family is doing in Africa today. And since he is African?, Hawaiian?, no wait, Muslim? well, his name IS Barack HUSSEIN Obama. You all tel me where his loyalties are. And don't feed me any of that PC bs about how we must be diverse. Diversity is what killed off the American Indian. Remember them? We white europeans invaded their land and took it over, just as the Muslims and the Mexicans are doing today. Will the last American to leave please turn out the lights and take the flag? Thank you. #4 - Posted by: on February 19, 2008 02:53 PMCindy McCain took that totally out of context. Fact is Cindy was in rehab for serious drug addiction at Betty Ford clinic years ago. McCain was tortured 5 years by the North Vietnamese (just might have damaged his brain, eh?) But we still respect them, so what's the big deal? The fact is we SHOULD be proud of our country, but our country should give us something to be proud of. Are you proud of George W. Bush, a man his own father GHWB is embarrassed by? Are you proud of our getting hit by terrorists on 9/11 when GWB and Condi were sound asleep, despite being warned by the German BND intel service and Richard Clarke? Wake up, we need a TOTAL change, not Bush in sheep's clothing, which is exactly what McCain and company are. #5 - Posted by: DwightXEisenhower on February 19, 2008 02:56 PMThis site shows that there's a website for every nut in the world - it used to be 15 minutes of fame for everyone - but now its fame for everyone - even those with an IQ below 15. Michelle's just excited because her husband is gonna be the Chief of all of us and you. Somebody has to save our military which 88% OF ALL USA MILITARY OFFICERS SAY IS STRETCHED UNBELIEVABLY DANGEROUSLY DESTRUCITIVELY THIN. All because of right wing poflecks like you people! You ruin the military right wing poflecks! We need the change. Obama will win and fix the military! He will the commander in chief. The Time is Now. Soon you cowards will realize how great Obama really is. #7 - Posted by: Informer on February 19, 2008 03:00 PMman stop bringing muslims into everything. #8 - Posted by: adi on February 19, 2008 03:02 PMMichelle Obama will be much more proud of this country when Barrack bring half population of Kenyans to the US. How can this Muslim guy become our president, this is outrages. #9 - Posted by: IC on February 19, 2008 03:15 PMwhat a bunch of wackos #10 - Posted by: www. on February 19, 2008 03:15 PMWhen will the rumors end? That hate monger that said "This is exactly the way a Muslim would think." Might want to check their facts. Neither Mr. Obama or his wife are Muslim they are in fact members of the United Church of Christ. I guess any bigot can post here. #11 - Posted by: eric on February 19, 2008 03:16 PMOld Obama had a farm, With a dumb ass here, Old Obama had a farm, With a bitch bitch here, Old Obama had a farm, WTF? How did you people figure out how to use the net? #13 - Posted by: Jason on February 19, 2008 03:20 PMMichelle Obama will save the USA military from destructoin at the hands of the Republickers. She is best first lady ever. #14 - Posted by: Informer on February 19, 2008 03:23 PM#7 - is that you Scary Evil Monkey? Sure sounds like you. #11 - Posted by: eric "I guess any bigot can post here." Yeah - but they are funny - or at least fun to laugh at. I'd like to put them in a ring with some Ronulans - it would be just like The Friday Night Sissy Fights. #15 - Posted by: DamnCat on February 19, 2008 03:28 PMSOON OBAMA WILL RULE OUR NATION AND STOP THESE ILLEGAL WARS. THERE WILL BE PEACE ON EARTH. CHANGE. YES WE WILL. #16 - Posted by: PeaceNinja on February 19, 2008 03:28 PMStumpbled across this site, wow disgusting! This is a sampling of No Child left Behind George Bush. Go ahead bash Barack and get 4 years of HRC. Your choices on the menu: A 72 Year old war hero, with his finger on the button, a 60 year old former 2nd lady, and these jerks are fighting over whether someone is Muslim. Go Figure! #17 - Posted by: Ron on February 19, 2008 03:31 PMRON IS 100% FULL OF THE KNOWLEDGE #18 - Posted by: PeaceNinja on February 19, 2008 03:34 PMRon (#17), you mean we should be singing the praises of a pathological liar named Hillary Clinton to save us from the ultimate doom of complete socialism? Personally, I rather we battle Obama and win the battle than be fooled by Hillary. Bring on the frontal assault against "Survival of the Weakest." Kudos, Duck, nice inflamatory subject! #19 - Posted by: Jimmy on February 19, 2008 03:35 PMGood Job RWD, its trollapalooza day at IMAO. Both in quantity and shear stupidity you whupped FrankJ's behind in bringing in the idiots. What ya do, link to this at Kos Anyhoo- To the Doofuses (Doofusi?) Dwight and Informer. There are many good pharmaceutical options available to treat psychosis, you really should talk to your personal physicians for your own good and ours. Ralph - Unfortunately there is still no good options for cluelessness but we are still searching. TM - To each their own, but IMAO if you don't laugh at most of the posts here (you do understand this is a humor site right?) you really need to get someone to remove the stick from your @$$. #20 - Posted by: Brian The Adequate on February 19, 2008 03:43 PM RE: #18 - Posted by: PeaceNinja Is "knowledge" the new slang term for sh*t? #21 - Posted by: DamnCat on February 19, 2008 03:44 PMHah Fools! Now do you see what my wrath hath brought! You dare stand up to me you feeble mortal. Purging is at last at hand. All that is evil, all their allies; your parents, your leaders; those who would call themselves your judges; those who have lied and corrupted the Earth, they shall all be cleansed! #22 - Posted by: Michelle Obama on February 19, 2008 03:49 PM#21 DUMBCAT IS 100% FULL OF STUPID. MICHELLE OBAMA RULES AND SOON WILL BE YOUR FIRST LADY! THEN WE WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND FINALLY HELP THE POOR THAT DESERVE HELP IN THE USA LIKE THE NEW ORLEANS HURRICANE VICTIMS THAT BUSH LET DROWN. WE WILL BRING HOME NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS THAT ARE LOSING SONS AND DAUGHTERS BECAUSE SPOUSE TAKES FULL CUSTODY WHILE THEY ARE AWAY FOR FIVE YERS AND COUNTING AND CANT COME HOME. #23 - Posted by: PeaceNinja on February 19, 2008 03:53 PMMICHELLE OBAMA RULES AND SOON WILL BE YOUR FIRST LADY! THEN WE WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY They will know why they fear the dark! They will learn why they fear the night! #24 - Posted by: Michelle Obama on February 19, 2008 04:01 PMIs Michelle Obama proud now that there's hope for change? So, if her husband loses the nomination, will she revert back to NOT being proud of her country? I think she needs to answer this question. I just hear a very loud horn sound. #25 - Posted by: Jimmy on February 19, 2008 04:11 PMAmazing how ignorant some people are on this site. It's too bad that having a rational mind and the ability to evaluate evidence isn't a requirement for voting. Just for comparisons, the anti-Muslim comments, which of course don't even apply to Obama, who is a Christian raised by an atheist, aren't so different from the run-of-the-mill smug anti-Jewish rhetoric that "good Europeans" used to spew. It took quite a pummeling to beat the smugness out of those "good Christians," who in the end were really atheists at heart. What will be needed for their heirs, the self-satisfied liars and simpletons of the US? If you have even a slight inkling for ethics or justice, how can you be "proud" without reservation about a country where the government lies and breaks laws as a matter of policy? A country with more than its share of "good Christians" who happen to hate everyone who isn't just like them? What the quotes show is that Michelle Obama is uncommonly honest and thoughtful, while Cindy McCain is just another hack's wife hacking her way through her husband's dull campaign. And why the knee-jerk reaction to be proud, anyway? What happens if you're a bit indifferent?
Jimmy, You just know Michelle Obama's going to become a raging b**** if Barack loses. She will be very NOT proud of her country if they won't elect her oh so "fabulous" husband. #27 - Posted by: Nate on February 19, 2008 04:39 PMLIB-TARD TROLL MANIA! Excellent RWD! Damn the BHO worship is some scary shit! These imbeciles all are buying the rainbow vision. Its so pathetically sweet; Like the Special Olympics of politics. #28 - Posted by: Alamo on February 19, 2008 04:48 PMCircumstancial ethics, people. Do you think any of these trolls would dare speak out like this in the days immediately after 9/11? I personally oversaw the vicious beating of those who did on my campus. But now that the Obama screwball is rolling, the moonbats are trolling, gloating before the election is even underway! I remain confident, however; they will reap the whirlwind when either Obama or Hillary is made the nominee... and the all MSM and special interest groups in the world won't be able to hide their terrible records and sordid pasts. Not to mention both candidates are forgetting the "Angry White Man." To all the trolls, go look up the article of the same name in the Aspen Times Weekly from February 9th... maybe that will slap some sense into you and make you realize that this election is FAR from over. #29 - Posted by: RedWhiteAndTrue on February 19, 2008 04:55 PM#23 PeaceNinja Even thought this is a comedy site, please check your facts. It wasn't Bush who let the people of New Orleans Drown. It was their incompetent Mayor Ray "UHH let me check to see if I have the power to tell the people to leave 5 days before the hurricane hit" Nagin. He also made it the situation better by deciding to take away lay abiding citizen's weapons away. (What!?!? There's some thing in the Constitution against that??? It was written specifically for an event like this??? Who Knew?) Also your lame attempt to bring in the troops to justify your anti-war rhetoric shows your vast ignorance of how the military works. No one is deployed in a combat zone for more than five years at a time. National Guard soldiers serve 18 months to 12 months at a time. Even then they get to come home for 2 weeks through their deployment. Doing simple fact checks might make others take you seriously and make you smarter. #26 You meant to say anti-muslim comment, as in singular, left by an anonymous poster. None of the regular commenters (non-troll that is) here would leave such an anti-muslim comment. Unless it was a heck of a lot funnier. Or was clearly a parody. As for the meat of your post, I can be proud of my country for on the balance it has provided much more good than evil to the world in my total lifetime which BTW is roughly equivalent to Mrs Obama's adult lifetime. If you wait for perfection from any human institution, you will always be disappointed. Why do you lefties always focus exclusively on the negatives? There is a balance between "my country right or wrong" and "my country is always wrong." The few, the unproud and probably a lot of others just don't get it. Here's the question for you unproud's: What makes her proud NOW? Nothing has changed. If she wasn't proud of her country before, she shouldn't be now. I think just campaign BS. Sounds like "pride in hoping for change." Can you say, adolescent? #32 - Posted by: Jimmy on February 19, 2008 05:02 PM#30 When has PeaceNinja ever demonstrated a serious point or the potential for logical thought. That one is a lost cause and way to stupid to be a parody attempt. #33 - Posted by: Brian The Adequate on February 19, 2008 05:13 PMIf you have even a slight inkling for ethics or justice, how can you be "proud" without reservation about a country where the government lies and breaks laws as a matter of policy? Two things, Michelle Obama did not say "proud without reservation," she said it was the first time she was "proud" . . . at all. To expand on what Jimmy's saying, she says she's proud of her country **right now** - despite the fact this place hasn't been changed to the 2nd Eden yet - so to the extent you want to attack us, feel free to attack her. A woman who is not proud of her country after helping out Bosnia, the fall of the Soviet Union, feeding people no one else will and fighting numerous dictators no one else will is neither very thoughtful nor honest with herself. Just for comparisons, the anti-Muslim comments, which of course don't even apply to Obama, who is a Christian raised by an atheist, aren't so different from the run-of-the-mill smug anti-Jewish rhetoric that "good Europeans" used to spew. I know, just ask Hillary . . . #34 - Posted by: on February 19, 2008 05:24 PMBrian, Sorry, I'm new here. It'll take a while for to figure out who is real and who are trolls. It would be nice if they were doing a drive by to at least have a concept of what they are talking about. I don't know it might be fun to spew worthless inaccuracies across the web. Let me try! THIS ILLEAGLE WAR WAS NOT FOR OIL BUT BECAUSE OF BUSH'S FRIENDS AT THE WASTE MANAGEMENT LOBBYS. THEY WANT ILLEAGLE CONTRACTS TO CLEAN UP THE MASS AMOUNTS OF TRASH ALL OVER IRAQ! AND THE DEMOCRATS ECO-LOBBY ARE HELPINGHIM DO IT!!! ARGGG. Hey that was fun. Hooray - RWD is back!!! Must have been out doing real work or something since we all know Frank doesn't pay jack. For #26 above - of course the anti-muslim comments here apply to Barack Obama. His skin is dark. And, as all good people know, if you have dark skin, you are either mexican or muslim and are therefore evil and deserving of our scorn. Don't forget - we white people run this country. It's ours and we ain't gonna let some raghead camel jockey take it away from us. We will lie and break the law as long as it serves our interests and anyone who gets in our way will find themselves begging for a merciful death like the scum they are. And we hate the jooooooooos too, just like our noble European brethren you mention. Just ask Laurence Simon. Or Israel. You could ask them too. Anyone who is indifferent to America will soon be crushed. What happens to the indifferent people will make what happened to that guy on the movie Alien look like an episode of Teletubbies. All people who are indifferent to America should flee to Antarctica since that is the only place in the world we don't want (unless there is oil down there in which case we will slaughter anyone who gets in our way). #36 - Posted by: cptnmoroni on February 19, 2008 05:43 PMNice read, capt'n. Funny. This is the first election year that has impacted my "work ethic." Anyway, how many kinds of "change" are there? Exact Change Oh, that last one. That's what Obama's talking about. Now I get it. Change-up I am sick and tired of the word "change" in this campaign.
Even if I actually were a liberal, I think I'd have to reject that worldview if for no other reason than liberals (as evidenced by these trolls) are just so damned pissy about everything. What a miserable existence. Way to encourage undecideds to your side, you whiny, pissy, grouchy douches! Don't forget: extra change of underwear Change of venue Change jar Is that change or chains? #42 - Posted by: TerribleTroy on February 19, 2008 07:36 PMYes. Change-over #35 My deepest apologies if in anyway I came across as being annoyed or condescending to you. Welcome to the neighborhood. Peaceninja is the most grating type of troll, some are amusing in the not-enough-lithium-today sort of way, it is more of the random word generator variety. Pretty good rant, but you do get style points deducted for failing to refer the head of the current regime as Bushitler. I hope when your conspiracy theory is born out that my Bro-In-Laws girlfriend who works for Waste Management spreads some of that sweet bribe money my way. #44 - Posted by: Brian the Adequate on February 19, 2008 08:03 PMAs a mom and housewife, I would like to list a couple other changes Change a diaper (very important considering the candidate) Come on. What Michelle Obama said is what all liberal democrats feel. They ALL hate America and everything we stand for. #46 - Posted by: Mike M on February 19, 2008 09:04 PMCome on. What Michelle Obama said is what all liberal democrats feel. They ALL hate America and everything we stand for. #47 - Posted by: Mike M on February 19, 2008 09:15 PMI am no longer proud, since so many of my hubby's supporters appear to be drooling, brainless idiots. #48 - Posted by: Michelle Obama on February 19, 2008 10:33 PMI hope to change the diapers of my supporters, who hopefully will change so that they have the mental faculties of something higher than an infant chimp, so I can change the hopeful country that is hoping for change. #49 - Posted by: Barack Obama on February 19, 2008 10:41 PMYeah, you can change Hillary's diapers in Ohio, Texas and Pennsylvania, Barack. #50 - Posted by: Jimmy on February 19, 2008 10:50 PMI hope you are kidding! Hillary's supporters hate change and hope, and I would lose all hope if I were to catch their cooties, which would stop me from hoping for this country to change to one of hope. #51 - Posted by: Barack Obama on February 19, 2008 10:54 PMAt the rallies for the candidates, why do all of the supporters look the same? McCain: Almost all white, well-dressed, mostly men in dark suits. Some women here or there, and one black fellow standing near the podium. Obama: Almost all black, well-dressed, mostly men in dark suits. Some women here or there, and one white fellow standing near the podium. Hillary: Almost all short-haired, square-jawed women on the grave side of 40, dressed mostly in pants suits. No black people anywhere. One limp-wristed fellow in a chartreuse sportcoat and puffy cravat shouting "You go girlfriend!" Not to mention that all Democrats look and sound the same to me, Socrates. In terms of political philosophy, I just can't seem to "identify" with their racial distinctions. #53 - Posted by: Jimmy on February 19, 2008 11:32 PMOh on the contrary, Ralphy, it is I. You are a prime example of a cracker, aren't you my sweet little "soon-to-be" houseboy! LOL! Barack forever! And yes.... I am proud of him, and, well.... let's just say certain aspects of this country. I'll let you figure out which aspects those are! #54 - Posted by: Michelle Obama on February 20, 2008 01:07 AMI bring hope and change, and now pride. Since I will repackage something said many times before, [just read above for other versions] Change your drawers. And I can tell you're proud of your hope for change, GregVolk. I just hope you can change your hope into pride of your change. Being proud of change is better than hope for pride. And changing hope into pride is a sign of hope and change. #56 - Posted by: Jimmy on February 20, 2008 01:44 AMI can't believe you guys forgot this one... as it applies to all socialist libtard candidates (and their spouses)...
Barak Obama has NO experience in the private sector. He has run NO business. Created NO jobs. He hasn't had to worry about putting food on the table, his job being outsourced, his house being repossessed. He has NO real life experience. He didn't even attend an actual public school in Hawaii (which I hear should merit combat pay). His wife SAID she was "for the first time" proud to be an American. Maybe that should be a clue for the rest of us. For decades we have allowed communities to run themselves into the ground. We have allowed others to blame their problems on everyone else but themselves. We have allowed them to get a pass, when others have to pay for their mistakes. We have allowed standards of decency in rhetoric and action to descend to a sub-civilized level. So in that way I am not proud of my country. I AM proud of my country for it's willingness to give to others, for it's compassion, for it's willingness to share the hope of freedom, for it's hard working, hard playing silent majority who keep on working, no matter how discouraged, disappointed and disenfranchised they feel. I am most proud of the ability I have to give my opinion without fear of repercussion, and the freedom others have to disagree with it. For all you trolls out there who don't like this site. Go somewhere else, it's still a free country .......... at least for a while. High Emir Eider Down this was a great thread. Great job. #58 - Posted by: seanmahair on February 20, 2008 12:15 PMBravo, seanmahair. #59 - Posted by: Jimmy on February 20, 2008 02:01 PMAs a disenfranchised voter with no options for this November, I am observing this election now as an onlooker. Notwithstanding my opposite views, Obama seems like the most sympathetic person of the three. I feel sorry for him having this sorry excuse of a wife with her foot constantly in her mouth. #60 - Posted by: mykidsmommy on February 20, 2008 04:07 PMLets not forget about larry sinclair the slow man trying his best to get his story out about Obama being bi-sexual. Doing crack and gay sex acts with Obama in 1999 in a LIMO #61 - Posted by: james dean on February 21, 2008 01:31 AMPost a comment
