Michelle Obama tells us what America is...

GeeSussFreeK says...

Not my place to comment on her psychology, I don't know the lady. What I do know is that I work in opposite of some of the generalizations. I don't like fear right about as much as I don't like pain. If I have a nightmare that keeps me up, I don't think about how awesome it was that I had that one instead of some other one that might of been worse; would or rather not had one at all.

I also don't mind moving out of my comfort zone per say. If there was a banana peal in a courtyard, I would make straight for it and trip on purpose to get a laugh at my own expense. Generally, being thought a fool I find very amusing even though it is rather awkward feeling.

I also didn't learn that I was a "white boy" until I was in 6th grade. Then, when I learned I was, I didn't know that was a pejorative!

I remember watching a program on human evolution where it was looking at monkeys and social groupings. The larger the brain of a monkey, the larger social groups they would form. If you carried the trend up to humans, our social networks would be at a max of about 120 people. I thought that was kind of interesting that human evolution might of really only prepared us for small town/tribal living and our brains really aren't capable of handling city living.

I experience that when I walk down a crowded street, how could I possibly be nice to all these people. More over, would I want to, that guy might be an asshole! Though I find certain individuals as actually identifying with groups, that is strange to me. I have never understood cheering for sports teams, you don't even know those people? I think some people do submit themselves to much to a group dynamic so that it suppresses their own rational individual ethos, some people just aren't that transcendent.

For my own opinion, it appears from the outside looking in that the first lady is pointing out that not being transcendent is bad, but she also seems to fail her own litmus test...it's hard to be a human for sure. Public people suffer from not only being human, but the subject of scrutiny for the rest of us.

Japan's new first lady eats sunshine, has visited Venus

>> ^honkeytonk73:
Her wacky claims are not much wackier than belief in a magical sky god, zombie resurrections, and a 6000 year old planet flooded and saved by an old man on a boat.. which is due to be eradicated at 'any moment' by fire from the sky launched by a vengeful god against all who do not proclaim absolute fear and servitude under an outdated illogical book filled with inconsistencies, bigotry, and violence written and rewritten in numerous inconsistent forms in vast numbers of languages.
What is weirder? Claiming to have been abducted by aliens, or talking to an invisible magical sky god 'in your head' and thinking that thinking thoughts to that sky god actually makes a difference in the world. Prayer doesn't cure hunger. Farming does. Prayer does not cure disease, medical science does.


I'm not quite sure this video is really related that well to bashing christians, but pass your time as you wish. I'll even answer your question by stating that for my money this lady's beliefs are far crazier than most(and that includes a great number of religious believers).

'Fire Dave Letterman' Rally Draws Tens of People

Shepppard says...

Good lord, the first lady alone..

"Everyone in the country is very very upset" Strike one.

"Talking about a little 14 year old girl" Strike two, bristol is turning 19.

"Watching an American Basketball game" aaaaand we're done here.

How many people do you think actually watched the show, and how many do you think just heard from their friends that "Dave letterman told a rape joke about Sarah Palins little girl".

Hilarious article concerning the BSG finale from the Onion:
http://www.theonion.com/content/news/obama_depressed_distant_since?utm_source=a-section

"I'm a little concerned," first lady Michelle Obama was overheard saying at a fundraising event Tuesday. "When Firefly was canceled, he walked around like a zombie for a week, and Serenity was the only thing that snapped him out of it. Last night he said he felt like he had just discovered David Axelrod was one of the Final Five, whatever that means."

"When we spoke last month, he said season three was his least favorite because some of the episodes with Helo and the Sagittarons—and pretty much anything that involved Cally—were boring and didn't advance the plot," Afghan president Hamid Karzai said. "But I told him that when you watch it all on DVD, and you don't have to wait a whole week for a new show, those peripheral episodes actually add new color to the already established world."
