Michelle Obamas Hopelessness Shows it Sucks to Be a Liberal

By Susan Stamper Brown Its a shame that Michelle Obama says shes feeling hopeless this Christmas especially after all the wonderful opportunities shes had as Americas first lady. It goes to show you that liberalism is like a disease that wont be satisfied until it devours all of you. Undoubtedly all the designer gown-wearing Hollywood hobnobbing $100-per-serving wagyu steak indulging and taxpayer-funded globetrotting wont fix the hopelessness which ails her. Its hard to be hope-filled when you tangle yourself in a web of bitterness and resentment over Americas past. Just last year Mrs. Obama shared how she really feels during a racially-divisive commencement speech at Tuskegee University that would have made its founder Booker T. Washington grieve. In fact in his book My Larger Education" Washington warned readers about people like her calling them problem profiteers." Washington wrote: There is another class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles the wrongs and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances because they do not want to lose their jobs." Michelles problem profiteering" came across loud and clear with her admission of hopelessness during the recent Oprah Winfrey interview. She came across like a spoiled brat when she said We are feeling what not having hope feels like" -- although her husband Mr. Hope-and-Change himself had eight years to propagate hope had he not been so preoccupied with change. Mrs. Obama is leaving the White House with the same negative attitude about America shes had most of her adult life. Apparently it changed temporarily when her husband became the 2008 Democratic Party nominee. For the first time in my adult life" she said I am really proud of my country because it feels like hope is finally making a comeback." But now that President Obamas on his way out the door hope is too. Its as if she sincerely believes that hope rises and falls based on her husband. It is enormously arrogant to suggest that any human being has that much power let alone someone whose policies: wrecked healthcare and made it unaffordable hurt manufacturing and downgraded the job market lowered household incomes and added millions to food stamp rolls weakened the military and made us less safe played class politics and eviscerated racial unity to name a few. With hope" like that no wonder Americans voted for change. Obviously Michelle wont be happy until everyone feels as hopeless as she does about America. But thats not going to happen. In fact the Electoral College just met and did its job to seal the deal for Trump who won more counties that any candidate since Ronald Reagan.  The U.S. Constitution worked despite the obnoxious temper tantrums death threats and harassment hurled at the electors by crazy crybaby leftists who refuse to accept the fact that if Americans had wanted to give Obama a third term Hillary Clinton wouldve handily won. Instead voters sent the leftist totalitarian agenda packing. And stocks rose and poll after poll reflect that Americans have a growing and glowing optimism about the direction America is headed. If that is Michelle Obamas definition of hopelessness then it sucks to be a liberal.
