Michelle is beyond feminist

What in the heck is Debra Dickerson jaw jacking at the mouth about Mitchelle Obama leaving her job. It's this comment that gets me.

No, you'll have your well-manicured hands full being your husband's hostess in chief. Funny how she didn't mention her husband's parental angst; there have been whispers that he's been pretty busy, too, what with being the great black hope and all. Wonder what finally made her decide to quit.

Wonder what finally made her decide to quit? What are trying to insinuate here, Debra? That Michelle is concerned about her husband stepping outside the marriage?
She told you, Debra, but that was not a good enough reason for you!


Hello, her husband is trying to get nominated to be the President of the United States. How many African-American women have the luxury of leaving their jobs to be a stay at home mom? Her children are her first priority, so she cut back. How many women are working for themselves to be able to take off when ever they want too?

This woman mentored her husband before he became her husband. What's the saying behind every successful man is a woman. Mitchelle is that woman,a helpmate not a wifey, and Debra needs to leave Mitchelle alone. And calling Mitchelle ghetto with street cred:
Michelle's street cred as a churchgoing, "round the way" sister who made good makes her "ghetto pass" (her ability to operate as an insider) irrevocable. There will be no discussion of whether or not she's "black.", what is Debra drinking?

Mitchelle is not trying to be no tv friendly eye candy like Katie Couric. Mitchelle got her own goals, she's working her own program.

Mitchelle is Harvard educated, but Debra calls it fancy education for a colored church going around the way girl who can make it sexy to stay in school for black girls to get a man.

Of course, "black" problems are really American problems; having the golden couple spearheading the fight will make it sexy to help blacks with their systemic problems (education and entrepreneurship, to name two). The two Obamas can de-race these issues (here is where she can use her fancy education) and help America understand that black progress is American progress.

Is women' role in the world to make everything appeal sexy?

Debra will be forgiving of Mitchelle decision to leave her job, if Mitchelle will bring feminism to black women? Black women are beyond having sex with raced white women feminism...that's right. Black women have always worked, black women have been black as long as black men. And black women have been mistreated by all of them.

Michelle ain't Hillary. Michelle has mentored her man, while Hillary's man has walked all over Hillary and Hillary ambitions. A feminist fights to be treated as an equal, Hillary has failed the feminist test, yet feminist love Hillary. Hillary stayed in the background until she was told it was okay to step forward. Feminists still love high profile Hillary, and that's the only reason why they are sticking with Hillary. High profile.

Michelle does whatever Michele wants and that's a womanist.

So leave Michelle alone.
