Obama"s Choice

So Obama did Michelle a favour? "He could have married a white woman but instead he chose a woman darker than him!" Is that for real? This was from a mate of hers too, her biographer Liza Mundy. With friends like that...

OF COURSE Obama could have married a white woman. The man's so hot his shirt is smokin'! Any woman would have to be nailed into a box not to notice.

He could have had anybody. He chose Michelle. And as with the rest of us, the darkness of her skin had nothing to do with it. Feels really, really weird to have to state the obvious like that. Nobody in the UK gives a monkeys that they are the first black couple in the White House. Yet Ms Mundy says of Michelle: "You can't overestimate how symbolically important she is for African American women."

So it's not her intellect or her degrees from Princeton and Harvard. It's just great that a black woman is married to the President. No wonder she's feeling a tad fed-up these days.
