FLOTUS fans, rejoice! Michelle Obama is writing a book. It is coming out sometime in spring 2012, which might be helpful if Mister FLOTUS is going to try to keep his job, because how many wars will we be fighting at that point? Anyway, Michelle Obama’s book is going to be all about the White House garden, other gardens, and healthy eating. Proceeds from the book will go to charity -- probably a "charity" that gives treadmills to impoverished children. Unfortunately, our FLOTUS doesn’t seem to realize that this book is basically giving the middle finger to suffrage and the women’s movement and all of that because gardening is sexist. Of course.
<i>Or perhaps a tome on what it&rsquo;s like to be black in America, written by the wife of the first black president? Even a memoir on what it&rsquo;s like to give up one&rsquo;s job for your spouse and still make an impact on society would do for feminists&rsquo; sakes.</i> Yes, by all means, write something that the teabaggers can quote-mine for information and can post on Facebook sans context so they can have a circle jerk of righteous indignation.
Let&#039;s be fair....I have a white person as the one hypothetically saying it so the white person in question would sound racist.
Her follow up book will be about having babies.

Praise the Lard.
I can see it now.
Palin to Michelle Obama: &quot;You don&#039;t know nuthin&#039; &#039;bout birthin&#039; no babies!&quot;
Fair point, but they&#039;re going to do that anyways.
