MICKEY KAUS: Michelle Makes It Worse.
Michelle Obama’s thin skin is the best thing to happen to Jodi Kantor’s new book, as John Hudson notes. … Mrs. Obama may not fit “angry black woman” stereotype she’s complaining about, but she’s confirming the ”over-adored political wife who can’t stand bad press” stereotype, no? Kantor’s book, from all accounts, is by and large good press for the Obamas. Not good enough, apparently.
Next people will be comparing her to Marie Antoinette.
UPDATE: On the Marie Antoinette comparison, reader Dan Melson writes: “There is a simple, easy to remember difference: Marie Antoinette was willing to allow ‘the little people’ to eat cake!” Heh.
