Michelle Obamas Story of Racism at Target is a TALL TALE

Mmm hmmm, yeah ok. Platitudes and denial. Remember that next time you want to call out some con for taking things out of context.

 

It's not like I haven't before, and when I call them out about looking at context, the reply I received was "conservatives react on what is said, not on what one is thinking". Can't have it both ways.

 

Ahh wanna bet, that is exactly what she was talking about

""I think people forget that we've lived in the White House for six years," the first lady told PEOPLE, laughing wryly, along with her husband, at the assumption that the first family has been largely insulated from coming face-to-face with racism.

"Before that, Barack Obama was a black man that lived on the South Side of Chicago, who had his share of troubles catching cabs," Mrs. Obama said in the Dec. 10 interview appearing in the new issue of PEOPLE.

"I tell this story – I mean, even as the first lady – during that wonderfully publicized trip I took to Target, not highly disguised, the only person who came up to me in the store was a woman who asked me to help her take something off a shelf. Because she didn't see me as the first lady, she saw me as someone who could help her. Those kinds of things happen in life. So it isn't anything new."

In a 30-minute conversation, the president and Mrs. Obama candidly added their stories to the national discussion of race and racial profiling that was sparked by the deaths of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and Eric Garner in Staten Island, New York. "

Care to revise and extend your remark now?

It's about RACISM.

That is a left-wing lie, she was speaking specifically or racism and her and her husbands alleged stories or racism against them personally.

Funny it was his black chief-of-staff who mistook a 4 star general for the wait staff at a state dinner and ordered him to fetch her a drink.

She was clearly relating stories of her and her husbands belief of being racially stereotyped.

 

Yes she did as did her husband. It was the subject of the interview

The Obamas: How We Deal with Our Own Racist Experiences

 

No, I'm saying that in general they are like us. Trying to hail a cab and getting passed up..... Etc.

 

Then show me in the OP's linked article where Michelle Obama mentioned race.

 

I am white and I have experienced a lot of racism from blacks.

 

Ah yes, the standard "Obama is the most racist president ever" defense mechanism. All of those white presidents prior were obviously very color blind, especially the conservative ones.

 

Obviously you are getting your "information" from the "liberal media". Remember, according to some of the conservatives here, liberals, and in fact anyone who isn't a conservative, doesn't understand the brilliant and complex minds of the American conservative. So you aren't actually reading racist comments on this forum, you simply just don't understand the conservatives, they are very intelligent and complex individuals after all, and of course they are color blind. Race means zilch to them.

 

So you ARE aware of the concept of context yet you fail to acknowledge it here. LOL "Can't have it both ways" you say?

 

She was telling the story asserting it was an example of racism she had experienced. The fact is she showed what a bigot she really is.

 

I have....

FWIW

Listener Calls Into Glenn Beck Radio Show With an Incredible Allegation About Michelle Obama’s Race Story

The angry caller, identified as “Donna,” was furious, revealing that the woman in the story was her sister, and Michelle Obama was twisting the incident to make herself appear as though she was a victim of racism.

TheBlaze reports:

Speaking on Beck’s program, Donna said: “The funny thing is, my sister didn’t even know it was Michelle Obama until she was laying in the bed with her husband watching David Letterman and heard Michelle Obama tell the story. And she looked at her husband and said, ‘That was me!’”

“Michelle Obama told it accurately the first time, but she is twisting it now to make my sister out to be a racist,” Donna continued. “Now, her name isn’t out there. But I just got furious on my sister’s behalf. I can — we have political differences, big time, but my sister is not a racist.”

What I find amazing is how whites try to tell black folks what is racist and what is not and its usually comes from the folks who are the racist.

 

It's exactly why sane people laugh at the race card. In reality, it just shows the accuser to be dumber than a box of salted slugs. The race card and their imaginary war on women is laughable in a pathetic, walking-away-shaking-head kind of way.

 

Then show us what was racist about what happened while she was shopping at Target. The fact is Michelle was showing her own bigotry, are you?

 

I can't tell you anything about what happened to her at Target, why? Because I wasn't there. Therefore, I don't know if what she is experienced was truly racism or what she may have perceived to be racism. The point is I can't call her a liar and neither can you when you weren't there to actually see what took place.

Black folks experiencing things that you as a white man will never experience in your life and I can't understand why some of you find that so hard to believe.

 

Guess when you don't have any standards...it really doesn't matter.

 

Oh my goodness...is that security coming in?

 

Ummm.......like Rosie O'Donnell explaining to Whoopi Goldberg what racism is?

Which store next? Maybe the KFC.

 

He's more like something in the fireplace.

 

So the Ubamas will be teaching us how to tie shoelaces next...can't wait.

 

So when I go to stores after work in my khakis and shirt and get asked to help, is it racist?

 

You know what she said, point to me the racism she is claiming it what occurred. Youvare claiming whites don't know what racism is, a bigotted claim on your part, so show me where I am missing the racism here.
