Barack Obama: "Lay Off My Wife"

Obama says he does not think it is appropriate for his wife to get attacked for what she has said. He specifically attacks a Tennessee GOP ad that I posted earlier. His outrage is what is outrageous, like every time he whines about being the victim of some attack. The fact of the matter is that Barack Obama was having his wife give stump speeches for him and having her campaign for him. If he is putting her in the political limelight like that then he and she need to be prepared to accept the consequences when people don't like what she says. If you don't want her to be subject to the politics of the campaign, then keep her out of the politics of the campaign. It's just that simple. So the GOP has full rights to run the ads about Michelle's saying she is proud of this country for the first time in her adult life because her husband is running for president. There is nothing inappropriate in doing so. The fawning ObaManiac media surely will not make this point, and that is why I have to.
