But the quote in the title of my blog post just HAS TO BE TRUE if it came from an interview moderated by journalist Cokie Roberts...right??
I have tried to avoid criticizing Michele Obama. But this just goes so far over the top - it made me livid with anger!!!
Now The End Begins
Excerpt Quote:
Roberts noted that Martha Washington, the first First Lady, also described living in the role as akin to being a state prisoner.
Obama said she loved her job and found it liberating in some respects, but confining in others.
“There are some prison elements to it,” she joked. “But it’s a really nice prison.” /end of quote
*******
Notice how Cokie Roberts tried to smooth things over by sharing that Martha Washington said something similar. Earth to Cokie...THINGS WERE NOT AS LUXURIOUS BACK THEN!!!
Of course, we would NEVER hear former First Lady Laura Bush utter such a stupid comment! At least SHE had the grace to try and help MO out of her dopey utterance when she stated:
"Former first lady Laura Bush reminded the crowd that First Ladies had a chef."
Unfortunately, Michele Obama did not take the hint. She went on to say in her twisted, elitist way:
“You can’t complain,” Michelle Obama admitted. “But there is definitely elements that are confining.” source – Washington Examiner
