Michelle Obama Tired of Fear
 Oops.From an August 21, 2007 editorial Barack Obama often says that his wife, Michelle, is smarter than he is, stronger than he is, and gives better speeches than he does. On a trip to Iowa last week, Michelle was a firebrand, expressing a determined passion for her husband's campaign, talking straight from the heart with eloquence and intelligence. She told an audience in Council Bluffs that Obama was cautioned not to enter the race for president because there was so much fear: "fear that he might lose; fear that he might get hurt; fear that this might get ugly; fear that this might hurt our family." But the family decided to say "yes" to the Democratic race partially to confront those fears, said Michelle. "I am tired of being afraid . . . I don't want my girls to live in a country that is based on fear." Big step from a fear he might lose to a country based on fear, doncha think? But they're just words. Posted by: Bobby 2008-02-22 |
