After months of campaigning for her husband, Michelle Obama made a comment that not only costed her husband votes in the democratic primaries, but also created the perfect play ground for you-tubers and bloggers.
"Hope is making a comeback and, let me tell you, for the first time in my adult life I am really proud of my country. Not just because Barack is doing well, but I think people are hungry for change."
Michelle Obama has since done several interviews explaining her comments, trying to convince the masses that she indeed loves and cherishes the country that has given her so much. However this has done little to keep the blogs from being written and videos being posted about her “unpatriotic” ways.
John McCain’s wife, Cindy McCain, used the comment as the perfect opportunity to show her patriotism.
Many republicans jumped on the patriotic boat and began to create videos showing their “American Pride”.
Barack Obama has had his own “unpatriotic" drama. Claims have been made that he refused to say the pledge of Allegiance at an event. He also been questioned about how often he wears an American flag pin.
Though these issues will not fix the economy or provide solutions in regards to our international relations; it sure to take first stage during this general election campaign.
So Michelle, for your comments either intentional or not, you get this week's "Why oh Why did I say that " award.
