Michelle Obama Hails Husband As ‘Man We Can Trust’

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — First lady Michelle Obama pleaded with voters Tuesday to reward her husband with re-election, telling delegates at the Democrats’ convention that President Obama comes from humble beginnings but was able to reach the White House by taking advantage of the same kind of social safety net he defends on the campaign trail.

Democrats convened their nominating convention with a mix of sharp barbs against Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney and his personal wealth, and a defense of Mr. Obama’s first-term record on everything from health care to gay rights.

Seeking to unify Democrats and win over independents with the inspirational story that powered Mr. Obama to an historic election in 2008, Mrs. Obama told delegates her husband is still pushing for the vision voters embraced four years ago.

Hope obammy gets a good job when he gets fired from this one, or you won't be able to take those vacations you liked so much.

"Trust" - yeah trust to put the last bullet in a dying country.

" Obama comes from humble beginnings but was able to reach the White House by taking advantage of the same kind of social safety net he defends" - - Grrrreat just what we need, more unqualified people (like himself who never worked a real job in whole life) in position of authority by them getting unfair advantage over hard working deserving Americans.

Gotta love this woman. She does whatever she is told by the men, Axelrod, etc. She knows her place and obeys without a hint of embarrasment. What a good girl she is now saying the complete opposite of what she was saying 4 years ago. It wasn't so long ago she was whistling a different tune and claiming she had not ever been proud of her country before.

Have you every seen anything like it? This woman's done a complete 360. There is no way her way of thinking has changed so dramatically. It's clear she was told what to say this time and she obeyed and said it.
She's a weak and cowardly example of a woman.

Isn't a 180 going backwards in other words the way you were previously, 9:13? I may be wrong but I believe 360 means doing a complete turn around as in the opposite. In other words Michelle Obama has done a complete turn around in thinking.

A "man we can trust?"
Yeah try telling that to the Pakistani doctor who has now been imprisioned for 30+ years for helping the CIA gather intelligence on Bin Laden which ultimately led to his whereabouts!
Another obama royal screw up, the democrats are ignoring. The only part of that operation which wasn't seriously flawed was the part carried out by the Navy Seals. No wonder the government doesn't want the book released.

And her speech just reeked of desperation.
She clearly loathes the idea of being kicked out of the White House.

I guess she does loath getting kicked out of the White House because then what? No one is in the market for 2 has been lawyers who voluntarily gave up their law licenses in other words to avoid having all their misdeeds, illegal and unethical behavior aired publically.

New polls are showing that this speech did nothing for obama.
CNN poll has candidated at a tie whereas previous one had obama up by 2%. Rasmussen still had Romney up by 2%.
Everyone could see all she is doing is trying to reinvent obama.

We all know about body language, well, Michell's body language didn't at all match her vocal languge last night. She even looked like she was wondering what she was actually saying via the teleprompter. Obama, Biden and Obama, the three stooges.

I would venture to say that none of you are going to be voting for President Obama. I think his wife did a great job of defending her husband as a leader and a father. Alot of good points were brought out about work ethic. I hope if he is elected he will bring the working class back to that and away from entitlements. he seems to be very family oriented. GOOD for him!

Well said 11:27.

11:27 She did not do a great job. She stood there in front of the American public and shamelessly told one lie after another.
For example she said Obama doesn't care what party someone is from he works and hears everyone's idea. For almost 4 years the republicans have requested meeting after meeting with obama to discuss his jobs bill, healthcare, etc to offer their ideas and obama has consistantly refused.
She talked about her so called humble beginning when in reality her father was part of the Daley Chicago politcal machine.
She claims obama gives people esp woman health care choices-hugh lie since choice options are being limited under obamacare.
"family oriented" alright. Oriented or tailored to teach each other how to lie and cover them up.

Where have you been 11:27? She did a great job of attempting to cover her husband's butt but that is all. The fallacy that Obama doesn't care about us and them was over the top. Obama's speeches are peppered with us's (democrats) and them's (republicans) and they are playing they over and over on radio and news shows today.
She's full of crap and everyone can see it and that's why their convention is not even half full.

11:27 thanks for your comment. Well said.

And all of you haters - why don't you run for an office? You know how to fix everything...It is so easy !

"haters?" I just love it when someone doesn't like the message because it's a truth they don't want to admit so they attack the messenger.
Face the facts, 2:36 Michelle Obama telling the truth are strangers.

Anonymous said...

2:36 Seriously how can this woman stand before the public and claim that her husband ended the war in Iraq? She stands right there without a hint of embarrasment while her husband takes credit for something George Bush actually did. Bush signed when he was president an agreement which mandated all US troops will be out of Iraq by Dec 31, 2011.
She is a horrible role model condoning things that are blantantly untrue. She does this time and time again.
