		<description>No, Michele, things aren&#039;t getting better!  Your husband is killing us financially.  Sure, my son can stay on my insurance until he&#039;s 26.  Great, it&#039;s costing us $1,800 a month for health insurance and you know what, we have a $2,500 deductible each!  As for our small business?  That&#039;s going down the tube too.  We can&#039;t afford to hire anyone and are killing ourselves trying to keep it afloat.  Our home is now under foreclosure.  Who are you kidding?  Things are getting better...its all bs!</description>

Neither Michelle nor Barack say they had a &#039;poor&#039; childhood. They say they came from ordinary middle-class American families - and they did. Please stop your right-wing Republican lying.</description>

		<description>...&quot; Neither one of you were born with a golden spoon ...&quot; Excusez-moi! Obama went to the most prestige and the most expensive school in Hononolu. His grand-mother was a high rank back officer.  Stop duping the low income and the middle income with the Obama&#039;s fictitious poor childhood.</description>

		<description>Why are the college records, of a 51-year-old President of the United States, so important to keep secret? Can anyone answer that?</description>

		<description>If i have $5 to $10  million to spend on the lavish vacation in Spain as Michelle, America must be better. Of course, much better when the taxpayers foot the bills.</description>

		<description>Both the First Lady and all DNC speakers keep claiming that they have created all of these jobs. What they are failing to realize is that creating jobs is one thing; sustaining them is quite another. Yes, the Obama Administration may have given grants to create Green Energy jobs at Solyndra, Ener1,Beacon Power, Abound Solar, Amonix Solar, Spectra Watt and Eastern Energy , but where are those jobs now? All of those companies took the money; paid themselves up front and have since filed bankruptcy laying off all of their help. So what good were those jobs????</description>

		<description>&quot;... Neither one of you were born with a golden spoon in your mouths and can relate to the working poor and middle class of this country. You both worked very hard and have PROVEN to so many children who thought they may never have a chance to achieve greatness that YES, THEY CAN! &quot;

There is nothing wrong with being born with a golden spoon in your mouth.  It is what it is!. However, I absolutely agree that both Obamas are really perfect examples of the American dream!  They clearly show how education, hard work, and a great support system can open many doors of opportunity for anyone!</description>
