Michelle Obama talks about military families

[ck4829]

irst lady Michelle Obama wants military families to know they have a friend in the White House, she told "Good Morning America's" Robin Roberts in an exclusive interview today at Fort Bragg, N.C. -- her first network television interview since her husband took office.

"It hurts. It hurts," the first lady said of hearing about military families on food stamps. "These are people who are willing to send their loved ones off to, perhaps, give their lives -- the ultimate sacrifice. But yet, they're living back at home on food stamps. It's not right, and it's not where we should be as a nation."

It is so refreshing to actually watch as those in this new administration, especially the First Family members, speak the words of the real needs that should have come from those in the previous administration, especially as to anything connected to our Military and their Families as we sent them into two, now long running, occupations! All they gave us, and our soldiers as well as their families, were "Go Shopping!" and 'Magnetic Ribbons'!

"Wheras we have a vast number of, um, Republicon Homelander heroes like:

xCommander AWOL Bush
xVP Dickie 'Five Military Deferments' Cheney
Karl Rove, Paul Wolfowitz, Andy Card, Clarence Thomas, Antonin Scalia,
Trent Lott, Saxby Chambliss, Phil Gramm, Tom Delay, Dick Armey, Roy Blunt, John Ney, Rush Ass_Pimple Limbaugh, O'reilly, Beck, Hannity, and a vast gaggle of noisy Republicon Homelander CHICKENHAWKS.

"So, um, this is, um, unfair. Republicon Chickenhawks deserve more, more, more. What's wrong with Obama and Michelle, being unfair to Republicon chickenhawks? Whine, whine, whine."
