Michelle Obama on The Colbert Report
By SilentPatriot Tuesday Apr 15, 2008 2:20pm 
Barack Obama's wife Michelle joined Stephen last night in Pennsylvania to talk about the presidential race and to review some of the artwork he's received from children around the country.

His head has handles?!? hahahaha Colbert is hysterical.
She's kinda tough...and not in a bs way. I like that a lot....
I think she's great.
Oh my god!
She obviously hates America if she was on Colberts show! *snark, off*
I like her because she seems to be the exact opposite of Laura Bush in every way imaginable, except that they are both female. Oops, Laura is an android. As I said, opposite in every way imaginable....
I loved those pictures of Obama that the children drew. I liked all of them. The last one reminded me of and resembled drawings used in the old Fat Albert and the Cosby kids cartoon that I used to watch. lol
On a more serious note, Michelle Obama would make a fine addition to the White House as well. You can just see that she is full of ideas and strong opinions. She definitely would be a great first lady and Obama, a great President.
Oh shoot! That didn't have the part about the spoons in it. He said something like we know you are elitist and were born with a silver spoon. She said, yes growing up my family had spoons. He asked how many and she said we had four spoons. Then he began to talk and she interrupted and said when my dad got a raise we bought another spoon. She played it so cool and so damned funny.
I like her and the way she handles herself. She has a good sense of humor and will laugh when things are funny. She doesn't seem so programed like Laura.
Let's settle the election with hot wrestling between the potential First Ladies!
Now this is what I call a First Lady: smart, witty, able to take care of herself in the spot light, and a total babe. Rawr!
CLASSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!! personified!!
pissed off patricia @ 7:
She obviously has never been to Stepford.
I've got this picture in my head of Barack, Michelle and their two little girls up on the stage smiling and clapping and celebrating Obama's win as president of the United States. And I will be at home in my nightie smiling and dancing and celebrating right along with them.
Please let that picture become reality.
Michelle is very classy!
Thanks Pissed Off Patricia for the spoon jokes. Hilarious.
Bitter Leslie Hussein @ 13:
I wish C&L could get that clip, they played it on morning joe this morning. Even that early in the day, it was funny as hell to watch.
SP, no offense, but please consider rephrasing when speaking of someone's wife, eg, "Barack Obama’s wife Michelle joined Stephen..." into "Michelle Obama, Barack's wife, joined Stephen..."
Thanks.
Classy hot wrestling?
When she made the statement she had nothing to be proud of this country for til her husband started to run for the presidency she lost me and any respect I would ever ever ever have for her.
With all the sacrifices in this country made for the civil rights of black people she has the nerve, the absolute nerve to say something like that. She takes all the advantages given to blacks in this country and says something like that.
It makes me puke to think she might get to be in the whitehouse...how obama stands her goodness only knows.
Is it wrong i think she is a MILF?
Marge @ 17:
You might want to rethink some of the things you said about the "sacrifices". Or better yet, elaborate on them a bit. I'm sure some here are a bit curious.
So that uppity woman isn't grateful enough for you????
"Given to blacks"... WTF you make it sound like a gift, not a right.
Anyway, you have misquoted her.
Marge @ 17:
Marge @ 17:
jesus she makes one statement and you hate her.
you must not have many friends. And you must puke on an extremely regular basis.
Michael @ 18:
you mean, FLILF.
Marge @ 17:
This is sarcasm right? If not then WOW your just stupid.
Marge #17
Shut up and get back in the kitchen! Where's my dinner? DOH!
Marge @ 17:
you're not black are you ?
miss_kitty @ 21:
Yep, and I would suggest looking for the world's largest barf-bag, because I'm thinking you might just have four to eight years of puking coming up.
She is so charming, and very cute. Barack is a lucky man in so many ways...I really like her too...
Chico Hussein @ 25:
You don't have to be black to be offended by such blatant stupidity...
Gee, she don't seem like such an elitest America hating anti-christ to me... She's actually seems pretty normal and looks like a hottie... What am I missin here??? JD
Chico Hussein @ 22:
lol . . . i too couldn't help but notice the gams on her. it could be a wonderful 8 years. on so many levels.
marge . . . get a life. or a stronger stomach. actually, both.
Michael @ 18:
She'll be the First MILF.
Marge @ 17:
Spin much? Maybe you ought to go back and look at the context and actual footage. She never said she had never been proud of the US. Right now, with a black man and a woman running for POTUS, she is really proud of her country. That she said "first time in my life" I chalk up to exuberance.
Maybe you haven't had any experience with exuberance, given your candidate preference.
It's the first time in 7 1/2 years that I have been proud of my country. I've been embarrassed and bitter since the 2000 fiasco.
Chico Hussein @ 22:
You PFLILF!
And if that's wrong, lawd help me, I don't wanna be right!
Jack Damage @ 29:
She is an elitist. Remember, this is the Bizzarro World now.
I'm going to enjoy seeing Michelle walking to and from the helicopter with President Obama! My demographic is I'm a 68 year old retired lady. I don't know why polls say older people are voting for Hillary. My 86 year old mother is voting for Obama, along with many of her elderly women friends.
I loved seeing Michelle last night and I will be very proud of her when she's our First Lady!
I actually admire her. Wow, when was the last time I said that about a potential first lady?
Ann Coulter's perineum @ 8:
I don't know if you have the worst name ever or the best.
I've never had much of a thing for black women (Asians!!), but Michelle Obama brings to mind thoughts of the teacher whom you respect and wish that she would make you stay after school. I think she'd be smart and influential like former first lady Clinton, except she'd come with a personality.
"Hussein" Bookworm @ 28:
True, but you do have to be black to understand at an intricate level that the 'advantages' given to blacks in this country are far and few in between.
it makes me puke that a braindead moron has been in the whitehouse for the last 8 years. none of us should be proud of what's happened in the last 8 years.
Putin@34;
Well, ya got the bizzarro world part spot on.. no denyin that...dunno bout the rest. I'll chalk it up to a fine dry Colbert-like humor..... JD
Jack Damage @ 29:
Geeez Jack!
Don't watch faux noose!?!First of all, she black, she's a woman, and she's very smart! Be afraid! Be very afraid! If she gets in the white house, next thing ya know, all children will be born nekkid! Dogs and cats will be LIVING together! A gay man will be sent to the moon. And they'll force southern white men to eat chit'lins!
Marge @ 17:
You seem to have gotten your twisted version of what she said straight from Billo -
Here is what she really said:
"For the first time in my adult lifetime, I'm really proud of my country, and not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change."
Also, how many "advantages" have you personally given "blacks"? How many sacrifices have you made on behalf of any minority? (watching "Cosby" on the teevee doesn't count)
Jusker @ 32:
Yeah, you and the other non-idiots.
Please don't feed the trolls.
Nice little round of applause for "my husband will be the next President" at the end there...almost the exact opposite of the round of applause heard when Tweety started musing a Senate run in '12 on the Report the night before...I think I heard a cricket cough after that little stunner...
I've never heard someone say so much without actually saying anything...no wait, I lie - I forgot about her husband.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm pretty sick of the Obama talking points. What the hell would he actually DO, should he win?
idiot marge sure got good mileage out that p.o.s. comment...
i never understand why really dumb stuff is copied... never...
...
saw this last night... most excellent...
and stephen just couldn't be a bad boy at all... i think he's smitten...
"jackie o" is one helluvs complement!
Jack Damage @ 40:
Yeah, Jack. I like to get my Colbert on sometimes...LOL
She's a babe.
Chico Hussein @ 38:
That might be true... can't say. I'm white. And Canadian. And very very much looking forward to Barack Obama in your White House (I'm an avid follower of American politics and a lover of your Constitution. Some day soon you'll get it back intact).
Watch Obama play hoops!

liberalHUSSEINmoderation @ 41:
Uh...I meant to say "Don't you watch faux noose!?!"
Marge @ 17:
Yes, blacks really should be more grateful to whites for two hundred years of slavery and decades of Jim Crow. It's not as if they had to fight for civil rights or anything during the 60s either.
Marge @ 17:
It makes me puke when someone pretends to be a democrat and refers to the democratic party as the democrat party. It's not even proper English.
Ann Coulter's perineum @ 8:
Nice screen name!
Chico Hussein @ 22:
You beat me to it! DAMN YOU!!...............;)
Chico Hussein @ 22:
"Hussein" Bookworm @ 49:
Thanks there, Bookworm! I'm a caucasoidal Amerkan, and I hope we get Obama in the WH, AND get the constitution back on the same day!
Chico Hussein @ 38:
Sounds to me like Marge is a Bill O minion. Marge were you as surprised as Bill that they have their own restaurants now? Why don't you pack up your GOP talking points and call it a day. Go home and get freaky with a falafel or something.
Michael @ 18:
I would even vote her as best looking first lady, second only to Jackie Kennedy
"Hussein" Bookworm @ 49:
Well, I'm white too.
but NOT Canadian.
PHEW !
Just kiddin' Canada, you guys are gr-EH-t !
RayC @ 23:
It's the latter.
Lib H@41;
Gee, I guess I am out of touch.. I thought all that stuff already happened, silly me... You mean they haint up and shot all the gays off to the moon yet??? Whoa, I really do need to get out more... And it's true, I plead guilty yeroner.... I really don't watch faux all that much... The football package is about alls I can stands without me tummy startin to get queeezy... And I still think she's a hottie. Maybe I need a shrink??? Hmmmm JD
Ann Coulter's perineum @ 8:
That means Bill wrestling with Michelle. Someone's getting the better end of that deal.
JD @ 50:
Thank you so much for that link. I enjoyed watching every minute of it. That was fun!
Marge @ 17:
Marge you answered my question to you from another thread....you really ARE related to another ignorant, totally misinformed bigot, Abob!!
pissed off patricia @ 64:
Me too. It's hard not to like the guy. It was a great interview. Hope more people will see it and get a better idea of who Obama is and where he comes from.
Marge @ 17:
Man, I can feel the love from here. The country sacrificed sheets for the KKK, rope for lynchings, gasoline for churches and bullets for shootings during that whole equality movement thing. That was very generous. Tell your Dad the Black community would like to thank him.
Well, I went off on a tangent, back to my point . . .I don't believe Michelle actually made a mention of race in the speech you mention, but yet here you are injecting it.
Yes, I'm quoting a stupid inflammatory idiot, but I can't help it.
Wow, I am incredibly impressed with Michelle.
She is a human being. Funny, smart, and not hard to look at.
Compared to Bush's stepford medically lobotomized prop, or McCain's trollop-trophy body-snatched wife, or Bitterly Clinton.... all I can say is wow!
I want to vote for Michelle now!
JD @ 66:
If you haven't yet, read his first book. You find out all sort of things about the way he thinks, the way he makes decisions and the experiences he had growing up. He's had a very unique life, which I believe makes him a uniquely good guy.
She'd be the closest thing we'd have to Jackie Kennedy, only more independent, smarter, and she probably has her own non-plagiarized recipes too.
gemHusseinpei @ 63:
I don't think it will be Bill! He won't enjoy it as much as he thinks he might.
Marge @ 17:
Do you know how many American children risked their lives, faced water hoses, vicious dogs(not you Marge), violent policemen and citizens to get those rights? Were you down south at the time? And what do you mean "this country"? Many noble and decent people did indeed help us black folks, but I'm sure from your comments you weren't one of them.
JD @ 50:
Very cool. Obama IS like a breath of fresh air.
momly @ 71:
Particularly if Hillary is keeping tabs on him.
American Idol election.
How bout some substance.
Michelle's honeymoon in the White House will end quickly as an American public extremely ticked off by its startling, sudden impoverishment begins demanding action, change, and RESULTS.
Thats for sure.
r @ 5:
Laura was brought up to be the perfect upperclass neocon wife -- rarely seen and almost never heard, except on issues dealing with children and women.
LAC - are you implying Shillary is the answer?
Nick @ 45:
You could not be more right on the money. These glassy-eyed, slack-jawed Obama sheeple remind me of the GWB supporters. The GWB and Obama supporters will follow them just on their say so....classic is Obama and GWB saying Do as I say, not as I do as this seems to be the way it works. Obama still has to show any substance on anything.
Whining and playing a victim makes me all the more sure I do not want this guy in the WH. As for his supporters, they are all over the blogs spouting vile spew about Clinton 24/7. You would not know they are dems because they are acting like Lil Roves, iterating and reiterating untruths and whatever they choose because they feel that eventually something will stick. Geraldine Ferraro said it and it is true, Obama would not be where he is if he wasn't black. Shocking, but true.
And the pandering by Barry and Shelly is shameless. Michelle must have been on her best behavior as she is prone to going ghetto at the most inopportune times.
Keep "Bradley Effect" in mind.

Dr. Acula @ 78:
Nope. I just get extremely annoyed when people look at someone and go "Oh my God! She's going to be the answer to all our problems!"
PssttCmere @ 79:
Pfffffffffft. Thanks for playing.
She's way smart, and a FLILF. Respectfully, of course.
PssttCmere @ 79:
If you aren't too racist to give Obama a chance, check out his website. He has all of his policy ideas under "issues" on the index page.
"Ghetto"? "Bradley Effect"? Please.
PssttCmere @ 80:
Ghetto Mama....damn.LOL
If anyone says anything against this great American patriot and future first lady, they are simply bigots!
I suspect within the first six months of Obama being in the White House reality will mug his support base and their idealism. He's not telling his people what he's really going to have to do and what is going to be required because his base would abandon him tomorrow if he did.
L.A. Confidential @ 76:
'RESULTS' that the American people mysteriously never demanded from Bush II - who made them impoverished with his $3 trillion war and tax cuts for the rich - over the last 7+ years, while racking up 50% of America's $9 trillion national debt?
Please, spare us your false earnestness.
Why not write yourself in as a third party candidate, since you've obviously already got all the answers. If you have the fortitude for politics, more power to you. If not...
