How to Be a Playa (or just accused of it)


No sooner than Michelle Obama announces that she's leaving her job to hit the ground running on her hubby's campaign trail, she's accused of having a chip on her exfoliated shoulder. A new website, Jezebel (from the good folks who bring you Gawker), speculates that said chip is because old boy "messed up".

Not that they actually know anything. But according to the gals over there, Mrs. O's comments about "he's just a man" and her referring to him as the "the brother" somehow indicate that she got played. They go on to rant about how it was a City Hall aide and how "he's supposed to be all fresh and clean". No proof or anything, just a silly, speculative, rant passed off as snarky humor. For the record, even if it makes white people uncomfortable, calling someone "the brother" (even if it is one's husband) is not a diss. Especially when, in context, it is to say "The brother is smart", as Mrs.O actually did recently (to an all black crowd).

If the jezebels at Jezebel would slow their roll a minute — and put down their assumptions that all black men are dogs...no comment on politicians in general — before jumping to conclusions, they'd have realized that Michelle Obama is 100% behind her honey. And for better or for worse, that's really all that matters. This is a serious presidential candidate we're talking about, ladies, not you're effing ex-boyfriend. Save the cheap shots for someone else.

Did you see HNIC's brilliant blog rebuttal to Maureen Dowd's finger-wagging at Michelle Obama for keeping it real about Barack?

Did you see her interview on GMA? I'm glad she is joining the campaign full time.

For real, they need to leave the rumors to In Touch and Star magazine.

Thank you for your post! The way I see it, this is yet another example of people not knowing how to talk about the Obamas, misreading them because they don't know how to recognize them as the successful, black, upper-middle class people they are.
