Michelle Obama: ‘We’ve been married for 30 years,’ and 20 of them were ‘great’
by Judy Kurtz - 04/20/23 10:35 AM ET


Michelle Obama says the world tends to “glamorize marriage,” while the reality is that matrimony “is hard.”

“We’ve been married for 30 years,” Obama said of former President Obama during a Thursday interview with Gayle King on “CBS Mornings.”

“If I fell out with him for 10 [years,] and we had a great 20 years, I’d take those odds anytime,” the former first lady said in response to a question from King about remarks she made last year that for a decade during their relationship, she “couldn’t stand” her husband.

“We glamorize marriage,” Obama, 59, said.

“In this day and age, marriage is more about the dress, and the dresses, and the proposal, and the honeymoon and all the stuff around it. And young people aren’t ready for the real of marriage,” she told King.

“A lot of young people quit on marriage over things that are just a part of the commitment,” added the “Light We Carry” author, promoting her book and a forthcoming Netflix special she filmed with Oprah Winfrey.

My father and uncles never glamorized marriage.  A great uncle who fought on the beaches of Normandy warned me "never marry a woman" back in 1982.   Little did he know, that in 2004, gay marriage would become legal in Massachusetts.  I did not heed his advice - I married a woman ..."love is the tender trap" as an old Sinatra song warns.

Am I supposed to care about their marriage??  Seriously??
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

Marriage is hard.  No sh*t!  But these words coming from the glamorous Michele is like words from a prophet.  I think not.

She and her husband are grifters, and they have managed to grift tens if not hundreds of millions for simply being black.  Right time, right place.

Now, we have another grifter family fleecing every ten million they can from the world representing America, the Biden Crime Family.

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
