Oops! ABC Exposes Michelle O’s Lack of Accomplishments

By Eowyn @DrEowyn

Michelle Kid's choice award 3_31_12Hey, ABCNews! You forgot this other accomplishment of FLPOS: Expose your camel toe and sausage thighs at the Kid’s Choice Award!

FLPOS Mooch turned 50 last Friday, Jan. 17, 2014.

In honor of her birthday, ABCNews published an essay “50 Ways to Celebrate Michelle Obama’s Birthday.”

I refused to read it, thinking it was ABCNews being slavishly obsequious to the FLPOS.

But Brian Anderson of Downtrend.com has a different, very interesting, and I believe, the right take on the article:

“The list of 50 Ways To Celebrate Michele Obama’s Birthday is supposed to be a loving tribute, but it shows how truly unimportant Barack’s ‘trophy wife’ has been. 

The list tries really hard to note all of Michelle’s accomplishments, but the best it can come up with is drinking more water and forcing school children to eat food they describe as ‘barf.’ Other important things the First Lady has done include shopping and taking vacations. She really hasn’t established herself as a woman of the people.”

Take a look at ABC’s “50 ways” and see if you agree with Anderson. The words between brackets [] in red italics are mine.

Anderson continues:

“Wow, those seem like the accomplishments of Paris Hilton or maybe a Kardashian, not the Ivy League educated First Lady of the United States. She really comes off as a Marie Antoinette-type character that frivolously spends as the people suffer under the ‘King’s’ iron rule. Instead of ‘let them eat cake’ she says, ‘make them eat vegetables.’

I will be thankful when her birthday is over and the media stops flashing pictures of her all over the news. Her shallowness is annoying and I find her really hard to look at. Man, is she one gigantic unattractive woman.”
