Fox News: Michelle is Barack's "Baby Mama"

Posted by Greg Hambrick on Thu, Jun 12, 2008 at 8:30 AM

Now that Hillary Clinton is out of the running, it looks like sexist remarks will now be replaced with overt racist ones.

In a segment yesterday on the Fox News channel discussing the right-wing attacks on Michelle Obama, the tag at the bottom of the screen referred to her as Barack's "Baby Mama."

Try and imagine Fox using that tag for any white candidate. Seems ridiculous? Thought so.

Baby mama....Really now; what do you exoect from the slimy defecation also known as the Republican Party (KKK). These anatomically deficient retards have never won any election without pandering to the trailer park residents about race. If they ever change ...be afraid, be very afraid. It indeed won't be long before the Messiah comes . Remember they only appeal to the academically deprived and the advanced racist.

This is not the GOP that wrote that on the screen. This was Fox News. Usually the media picks on the republicans, but when the shoe is on the other foot all you liberals start crying. Democrats can dish it out but can't take it. democrats=socialists=marxists=communists.

How sad. Stripping aside politics, the Obama's look like a lovely family... an AMERICAN family. There are evil people over there at Fox News, that's all I can think of.

Republicans are extremely emotionally disturbed, vindictive, hateful, ugly, mean, vile, and angry people. Their souls are being consumed by some unknown gangrenous-like infection. It is possible now, to feel a sort of pity for Republicans because that thing feeding on their souls must be the source of horrific and unimaginable internal pain. One is left to wonder what kind of monster Republicans see staring back at them from the mirror? Personally, I wouldn't wish being a Republican on my worst personal enemy.

Really, Mr. Ornelas, the media usually picks on the Republicans? What news media do you watch? The Democrats can dish it out but can't take it? Exactly what closet did you walk out of about an hour ago?

I don't think it matters whether she is a Republican, Democrat or Indie....the characterization is meant in a demeaning and disrespectful way. However, would that term be used towards Cindy McCain? It does seem racist!

I suppose when Michelle Obama introduced her husband at his victory speech in 2004 as "my baby daddy", the phrase somehow became unoffensive. I think it was someone at Fox's really bad and tone deaf try at clever alliteration.

How dare you try to degrade this beautiful woman. Jealousy will only keep you stuck don't be angry because Michelle is a strong, courageous, intelligent, and genuine person.

Ok Kwame. Explain to me how Michelle Obama used the phrase "My Baby's Daddy" at Obama's Senate victory speech in 2004, and that isn't an incredibly racist statement. Does that make Michelle a defecation? Does that make her an anatomical retard. Actually this goes for most people on this list. You mistake politics for hatred, and what excuse are you going to use when Obama loses in November? If im a republican do all these traits apply to me? Get back to me thx.
