That's not the Michellle I know. The one I know hates America. Why the change in tone? She is just like her husband--trying to play both sides of the issue.

The biggest question is: Which one is the real Mrs. Barack Hussein Obama?

I thought Michelle Obama was poised, sincere, polished, and extremely relatable for American women. I believed what she said and I liked how she said it. I'm glad she explained when she first met Mr. Obama she thought "He has a funny name. I bet he's weird." Because I'm quite sure that's exactly what many Americans thought at one time, or maybe (unfortunately) still think. And there was something about her choice of a simple green knit dress instead of First Lady business suit attire. . . it made her one of us, while at the same time, one we certainly should aspire to be.

Michelle Obama, wife of presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, delivered a speech Monday night at the Democratic National Convention and spoke of their upbringing and values, aiming to cast the Illinois senator as a leader with classic American values.
