A picture is worth 1000 words, goes the saying. An e-mail echange with my wife just now:
[1]
What’s with the “angry black woman” picture on Matt Drudge’s page [2]? I assume that’s the French President’s wife(?) with Michelle Obama. What’s with the ugly face?
(Shrug) The woman is perpetually angry, in my observation.
Where she directs that anger though, is indicative of something much deeper. French President Sarkozy is one of those moving [3] Europe [4] to the right [5]while Obama moves us left. There’s been a fair amount of bad vibes off that whole thing as a result, particularly where Mrs Obama is concerned. You may recall it was on account of Mrs Obama that dinner between the Sarkozys and the Obamas was cancelled [6].
Her anger… perhaps more correctly, her obvious distaste for Mrs Sarkozy Du Jour, (Carla Bruni) given her relationship with Sarkozy, and all he represents, speaks to something I have long suspected… What few political principles Barry holds come from her…. And that does not speak well of either of them. Remember that she was the reason he got involved in Jerry Wright’s chuch of hate, too.
Each fairly small things, (at least on the Obama scale…) but highly indicative.
