While the GOP is preoccupied with selecting a candidate to oppose incumbent
Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama is working hard to erase her image
as an "angry Black woman" and promote her husband's re-election campaign
along the way. While she is hoping that a series of television appearances
will cement the unmarried mom and single women's vote for her husband, she
is also obviously trying to re-sculpt her image into that of a pro-America,

By now, most all of us who follow politics have heard the collective barking

Seems in 1983, Mitt saw fit to attach Seamus’ kennel to the top of his car
while driving to a family vacation.
