Michelle Obama Let a Protester Have It and I Approve!
People gon learn that folks got limits. According to the Washington Post, Michelle Obama was speaking at a private fundraiser when a lesbian activist named Ellen Hurtz kept interrupting her. She wanted POTUS Obama to sign an anti-discrimination executive order.
Wells, that wasn’t the time for her to be showing out and clearly, FLOTUS wasn’t here (nor there nor anywhere) for that. So she left where she was standing and stood in front of the woman and said:
“One of the things that I don’t do well is this. Do you understand? Listen to me or you can take the mic, but I’m leaving. You all decide. You have one choice.”
OOP!!! Like a REAL G! Apparently, people asked Michelle to stay and Ellen was showed the door, and I hope given the suggestion that it better not hit her where the good Lord split her. Cuz… WELP. And afterwards, the lady talmbout she was “taken aback” by Michelle stepping to her because she paid $500 to be there.
An unrelated pic of Michelle looking like “AND?!? Whatchu gon do?”
AND?!? $500 doesn’t mean you could be incredibly rude and make demands of the First Lady, who isn’t even in charge of policymaking. Ma’am, $500 doesn’t buy you a get out of good sense card. You better have several seats! Iunno whatchu thought THIS was. She was taken aback that she thought she could talk AT Michelle with no types of repercussions. Don’t come for Michelle when she ain’t send for you.
See? The thing is that people forget she’s from Chicago. Michelle LaVaughn Robinson ain’t here to take your shit. You act a fool and she might embarrass you. Plus, she ain’t never scurred. Don’t be fooled by the degrees and the poise and class she shows regularly. Ellen tried it and got what she deserved.
FLOTUS doesn’t have to keep taking the crap people hurl her way. Barack might need to be nice because he’s all leader of the free world game proper but Michelle ain’t the one in office. She has a limit and folks test it. Remember this epic side-eye she gave John Boehner on inauguration day?
She’s like “Boy, bye!” Things that Michele Obama has time for: NOT that.
I hope to all that is good and holy that Michelle isn’t pressured to apologize for this incident. I really do. Because people are great for talmbout how their feelings are hurt but they were nowhere to be found as folks hurled insults at her, calling her a monkey and all other awful epithets. DONTCHU APOLOGIZE, SHELLY!!!
I’m just about sick and tired of the amount of disrespect that is shown to the Obamas. No other President or First Lady has been exposed to such utmost tomfoolery. Racist donkeys and asses cannot help themselves but be mad that our President is Black, his house is White and if he had a lambo, it’d probably be blue.
On the last day of Barack’s presidency, he needs to give one last speech and say “Fuck you. Fuck you. YOU COOL. And Fuck you.” Then he should dropkick the White House podium and swag surf into an all night party after telling people “Remember nice Barack? He’s dead.”
And I’d even hold his collar as he hits his footwork on his desk in the Oval Office. It’d be good times. There’ll be endless flaming hot cheetos and Mike’s hard lemonade for everyone.
I couldn’t be a politician, yall. Folks like me ain’t meant to run for office. I can’t e’em run to the store. The only running I can do is amok. I’m couthless in Chicago.
“Senator Luvvie. Is it true that you told one of your staffers to go dropkick a teddy bear into traffic if he was mad?” “Yes. Yes I did.”
“Congresswoman Luvvie. Did you really tell your secretary to go cunt punt Glenn Beck?” “I may have. By may, I mean absolutely.”
“Secretary of Defense Luvvie. Did you tell China to kiss your ass?” “Did I? It’s possible. I thought I said it under my breath.”
And if folks said some stuff I didn’t like, I’d be all “SHUT YOUR MOUTH WHEN YOU’RE TALKING TO ME!!!” They wouldn’t know what to do with me. And CSPAN would catch me in proceedings side-eying the hell outta my colleagues. I would be THE WORST! *jean-ralphio voice* the woooorrrssstttttt.
So yeah, whatchu think bout this incident? Do you like how Michelle Obama handled it? What would you have done if this were you? I bet the next person who wants to get froggy with FLOTUS gon think harder before they leap.
What have we learned today, kids? All together: “Don’t come for Michelle when she ain’t send for you.” Cuz she’s gone with the wind fabulous (unlike Kenya Moore). Never forget.
Oh and if you need an image to pin, feel free to use this:
Edit: The audio of the incident is now available for you to listen to.
WELP!

The Very.Same.Thing.
The WaPo didn’t have the best part. I was suppose to have gone to that fundraiser, but being on deadline my mother went. I just received the full account from her. Funny thing is. ABC news reached out to me to talk about it after I tweeted a pic of FLOTUS that my mother took. LOL I just emailed the folks at ABC with my mother’s account. If they release her account with the BEST part, I’ll share. 🙂
YESSSSS!!! KEep me updated cuz I wanna hear any parts of this that show it was e’em better than what was reported.
http://youtu.be/5BoMwO5ZPnU
YASSSS! The Audio
She was amazing, it’s about time people learned there is a place and time for everything. Some people take it too far!
http://www.cnn.com/2013/06/05/opinion/granderson-michelle-obama-heckler/index.html?sr=sharebar_facebook
And someday very soon an American patriot is going to let YOU have it and I will f-ing celebrate!
Don’t you have a bridge to get back under?
I think it’s hilarious, awesome, and long overdue. Why can’t folks just shut it up sometimes? First I talk, then you talk, then I talk again, and so forth. It’s not hard. We teach our children not to interrupt but we can?? No ma’am. You just got told by FLOTUS. Have a $500 seat.
A $500 SEAT!! LOL!! Yo, they showed her out like how you show the one nosy kid at the cookout to where the other kids are when grown folks are talking/playing spades/Gin/Phase 10 or Pinochle. Un un baby ain’t no kids in this room. Just adults you need to go outside and play with the other kids!
Why was I always THAT CHILD? Always wanting to be up in grown folks conversations and being showed the door? lol
I was always that kid too, and, as revenge, my oldest baby is that kid too. Looking you dead in your mouth while you talking.
I was that kid, but I was smart with mine. I didn’t look them in the mouth. I played sleep. Since I was that baby, nobody said nothing. I learned how messy grownups were & I avoided a lot of their mistakes when I got grown.
YES for that John Ralphio voice!!!
Not “fuck you, fuck you, you cool, fuck you…”
Barack ain’t gon let folks play with his ball no more. They don’t know how to act.
And Shelly is straight chillin like a villain. You do not talk over a black woman. She should’ve gon down there and taken off her belt and slow whooped her ass “I. Know. You. Ain’t. Bout. To. Talk. Over. Me. In front of all these damn people, little girl!”
Lol @ slow whooped
She should’ve gon down there and taken off her belt and slow whooped her ass
———-DEAD————
Thats one hit per wordLol
Actually, per syllable….LOL!!
“Slow Whipped”??? DEAD
Not slow whooped?!?! hahahahahahaha
….but the visual in my head of the FLOTUS actually doing that!!!
Hollarin’ right now…
I dun die.
Not slow whooped though. LOLLL!
LOL! Yeah, slo whoop her!! lol!
Just go old school on her.
First your question and answer segment has me in real tears I can’t with you.
I second everything you said.
ChellyO put chick in her place like the Goonin Goddess she is I am here for it I know folks gonna be like she is promoting the Angry Black woman stereotype and my response is like Luvvie: the hills are alive with all the fks I don’t give.
I would never interrupt anyone making a speech no matter what. Sure you have the right to protest but not the right to be rude then you wanna be like I was taken aback.
Man listen in the eternal words of Brand Nubian punks jump up and get beat down!!!!!
Not the hills are alive with zero of dem dere f*cks??? And yes I sang the song in my head as I read it!! Y’all are giving me late night life!!!
Lmao
Yup. Ellen jumped up and got verbally beat down.
Y’all gon’ stop messin’ wit ‘Rock-O and ‘Shell!!!…..Y’all no these folks from the city of Chi where folks don’t need much to be moving furniture (Granted, they lived in Hyde Park, but for my Chicago folks, that’s right smack dab in between Woodlawn and Bronzeville, two straight hood areas)….And I still go back to when that broad Jan Brewer had her funky ass digit in Barack face……Chile, Barack and Michelle are better than me cause you got one good time to put yo finger in my face before I break the mf off and make you choke on it….Watch, these cunts gon make ‘Rack-O go to the trunk one day and I will not be nothin’ nice…..
They live in Hyde Park now, but Michelle is from Chatham, right behind the old Magikist sign and the POTUS ran up and down in the Gardens community activating,,, these people better calm down,,, Rock-O and ‘Shell are not running for office again,,, they may be feeling a bit freer to start shutting down the nonsense,,, I sure hope so,,,
Y’all giving me life w/ this post & thread.. You taint even old enuf to know nuttin bout Chi if you ain’t know bout “that Magikist sign”.. Literally a “sign” you were in da hood. Big ups to KTZMIAO for that OLD SCHOOL Chicago (Southside) reference..
Feel free to tweet me the link to the Shelly/ ‘Chelle/ ‘Shelle T-Shirts slow whoopin dat ass. Awesome Thread!! Carry on. P.s. plus, y’all know Shelly went to public school over on the Westside. Um, yeah.
If this woman has EVER experienced any disrespect in her life for who she is, she should be doubly ashamed of the lack of respect she showed First Lady Obama.
Kudos to Mrs. Obama on how she handled this because we all know, this could have been a lot worse with someone else. As always Mrs. Obama showed grace and charm in this incident with a little bit of “I a’int the one.” She left it to the audience to make their choice. Nice! Because she knew what the choice would be.
So, if the Boehner side-eye wasn’t enough, let this incident be a reminder to folks who want to play the fool.
I so agree with you on this…they really don’t know who they are dealing with and need to take a seat way in the back before FLOTUS show them she is from slap a hoe Chi-town…I loved how she dealt with this matter, although it was pilotly said to miss Ellen to “SHUT THE HELL UP” her statement also said very boldly “FIGHT GO WITH IT”…Loving FLOTUS so classy and sassy….do you miss thang!!
I don’t think she was being disrespectful nor should Ellen have been lumped in with the racists that she and President Obama have had to endure. It was a protest. You feel you are shut out of meaning debate regarding issues important to you so you voice them in places where you know the policymaker and constituents will be present. The problem is FLOTUS is influential, but not a policy maker. So unless Ellen was protesting something that Ms.Obama said or political position that she has taken it is both a waste of energy, time and misdirected protesting. I will say since Ms.Obama is not a politician she handled it in a way that the protester probably had not trained for. It was very effective, quick and too the point. Moreover, since the subject at the time was on children the timing of the protester was off. It seems though she may have been talking at the time Michelle Obama was saying the children that is why she repeated it so often and then she had had enough and addressed it. I wish more folk would interrupt politicians about incarceration, shootings and police brutality in their local communities and nationally.
I don’t know Ellen Sturtz so I can’t say that she is a racist or not. I can say that her “protest” was ill-timed and misdirected. And it was disrespectful.
By interrupting Mrs. Obama I wonder if Ms. Sturtz will ever be able to really be heard. I’m sure she has lost any credibility.
iLive! Michelle has officially run out of fucks and I am here for it! Folks have gotten too comfortable disrespecting The Obamas & Shelley O had to let hoes know it wasn’t going down.
Yes. She is fresh outta any dambs to hand out and I’m here for it.
hey Luvvie: my insiders tell me there will be NO apology first, second, third or forthcoming.
No other presidential family has been treated in such a disrespectful and disgraceful way. I still can’t believe our president was bullied into producing his birth certficate, so it was sweet to hear Mrs. Obama defend herself and demand respect.
and P.S. I never get tired of seeing that side-eye gif!!!
I agree with you Carm. The Obama family have had to deal with alot of B.S. and they did it with class and grace and a smile. You know darn well when people went after Malia and Sasha FLOTUS had to hold her peace, and she see the B.S. her husband has to deal with everyday, even from people he have help like the LGBT community. But what this protester did was un-call for, FLOTUS is not the President, she doesn’t sign any bills, so the purpose of going after her was what. The protester didn’t expect to get a push back. I’m proud of FLOTUS, very proud.
been waiting for this ever since I saw the tweet that it was coming.
See? The thing is that people forget Michelle Obama is from Chicago. You act a fool and she might embarrass you. Plus, she ain’t never scurred.
who you tellin’.
Clown thought somebody was playing with her.
NOBODY is playing with her.
Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama put her ass in check, and next thing you know…she does what punk ass biyotches do – they start whining.
She thought she was all ‘ big and bad’
and the First Lady said, ‘ No, I m not the one’.
Love it, Luvvie!
liiiiiiiiisten I have been waiting for this since 07! Chelle O is straight Southside Chicago, don’t let the Ivy League Degrees fool you! It’s about time too, the Obamas have got tone the most disrespected First Family, and I’m sure future generations will look back & just be shocked that our President was treated as such simply because of his race. I just cannot wait to hear his viewpoint in retrospect. Luvvie I am too weak at you as the give 0 fcks politician “did you tell China to kiss your ass?” ROLLING lmao.
Chile, I don’t know how politicians keep their wits about them.
I’m waiting for the day when Michelle get to removing them earrings and takin’ off her pretty pumps….They got one good time….
Chicago! Chicago!
Michelle was being polite, she could have read her for filth. How can you get your point across if you’re yelling over someone else while they’re giving a speech? How disrespectful of her to ASSume that she had the right to interrupt the FLOTUS while she was talking. How many times has the FLOTUS told folks she’s not here for the BS? She has said in previous interviews in so many words and the POTUS backed her that she is not, she has never been, nor will she ever be THE ONE to try.
“She has said in previous interviews in so many words and the POTUS backed her that she is not, she has never been, nor will she ever be THE ONE to try.”
Welp. Well said!!
To have seen this in person I would have acted the fool instigating my butt off talmbout “Well she told you.” People also forget Mrs. O is Claire Huxtable in real life and WE ALL KNOW how Claire could read any and everybody for filth. I lived when I read the WaPo article and heard the audio.
Folks gon learn today with FLOTUS!!
Let’s be clear about who GetEqual is and how informed they are on issues of race (spoiler alert: they aren’t):
And yet they are shocked when they can’t get black civil rights organizations to support their cause. Forget any moral issues, they haven’t seriously engaged the community except to ask for foot soldiers to support their cause,,, uh no,,, we are not sitting around waiting for the chance to be The Help,,,
I am so glad you brought this up! I cannot stand when these organization act like “you’re playing the race card” when you discuss issues of diversity. Surprise, surprise queer people of color exist. Not ONLY do they exist they are more likely to suffer from homelessness, poverty, unemployment, lack of access to healthcare, etc. If that is not a serious issue for queer organizations then they need to say they only care about white queers, and stop trying to represent the entire community. Same with white feminists, but that’s another issue for another day.
BRAVO to our wonderful First Lady, Mrs. Michelle Obama.
Chile, iDied At the “hold my collar while footworking” reference! Real Chicagoans know that’s what’s up!
But for real, the lack of respect and overt racism thrown at the Obamas makes mr wanna kick dirty Beijing polluted air!
What I’m thinking is this: if I pay half a grand for some shit why on EARTH would I miss what the guest speaker is saying by over talking them??? Didnt you come to hear the guest speaker speak full, complete, and uninterrupted sentences? So you paid $500 to shout at the person you came to see and get put out accomplishing nothing but make an ass of yourself? How? Why? And I know we have to stand up for our rights since ppl stay intent on begrudging them, but I when I saw a pic of Michele in Target like ain’t nobody gonna stop me from doing wtf I wanna do I knew she was not to be fucked with.
EXACTLY!
And why didn’t someone else put Rude Ellen in check after the first interruption?
I would’ve been like “I di’nt pay to hear you so hush”
My guess is that none of the attendees *felt* that $500 when it left their lives … because they paid more than that for their khakis or something.
This is true, but my khakis better do what I expect after I spend the money on them. If my khakis came home and started acting like a booty shorts I’d be pissed. Moral is: reagrdless of how much I pay or what I’m paying for I expect to get what I paid for. lol.
Luvvie, I officially hate you! I literally snortle-laughed while reading the dropkick a teddy bear turn of phrase on the subway. I’m sure a few folks thought I was nuts. Ennehweighs, I’m glad FLOTUS told Girl Interrupter that ‘we are not the two and I’m not the one.’
All the questionable things GWB did, folk left Librarian Laura alone. The only FLOTUS I know off that was directly petitioned about anything important policy-wise was Eleanor Roosevelt and that was in the most polite and solicitous terms by black groups via letters.
Heckling a first lady is just bad taste and to my mimd a little racist.
So glad to see I’m not the only one spinning like Julie Andrews while not giving a fk,,, these people don’t know angry black woman, they know how to throw up a stereotype to detract from their own beyond the pale (pun intended) rude behavior,,, I am so glad the FlOTUS, with a whole heapin’ heck of grace and class put a stop to the foolishness. This is not a barn, go call pigs somewhere else,,,
For some reason, I heard the song “Him or Me” by Today in my head after reading FLOTUS’ response.
Lord have mercy, I am so glad our FLOTUS stepped to that “taken aback” privileged fool. She got $500 worth of in your face and her own kind escorted her rude ass out the door. The nerve of that rich bitch trying to act as if she is deprived of her rights when POB is and has been the only one in her lifetime working hard to make things equal for all. The nerve…….Michelle,please donot apologize to that rude person. Kris Krispy cusses and yells at folks whenever he damn well please….no apology. That Old Coot McNastyMcCain lies and says dumb shit to smart people all the time….no apology.
Enough is enough of the outright disrespect. Did that “privileged fool” yell at Laura Bush during the eight years she was in the WH? I am sure “Miss Daisy” did not just realize yesterday she was LGBT and her right were being overlooked. Where was her yelling and screaming eight years ago? Sit your “taken aback” ass down. DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
Two rich liberals(one of which most likely contributed to Obama’s election) goin at each other’s throats and a liberal blogger still caught in Obamania yawn
As I yawn at your comment. Womp.
That’s expected though as I don’t slavishly tow the line of the Drone in Chief. But notice that a rich liberal who gave $5,000 to the Democratic Party and the Obama campaign is suddenly shunned by Michelle Obama and liberal hardliners after using this venue to call for the end of employment discrimination. No discussion about that, nope, just that FOTUS was “disrespected” by another woman.
This is (largely) a humor blog. It is not a political blog. You didn’t come here to laugh. You should probably go.
Lol, I heard you sounding all “NASDAQ Olivia Pope-like” in my head when I read that!
Sorry. That was supposed to read:
“Lol, Yonnie, I heard you sounding all “Badass-Olivia Pope-like” in my head when I read that!”
Autocorrect messed up my delivery.
Oh please spare us all and while you’re at it, kindly fuck off.
yaawn cranky libruls.
First of the all it is rude to talk over a speaker. Especially the First lady of the United States. 5,000 is a drop in the bucket as far as campaign donations. Since it said nothing about donations, I think you meant the 500 ticket. Its a fundraiser she paid the money to support the cause still she doesn’t get to be rude. Fundraisers are 10,000 and 25,000 dollars a plate, you still don’t get to be rude.
Apparently you didn’t read the article Crystal because the Washington Post article said this lesbian activist donated 5,000 dollars, that’s a drop in the bucket? Maybe to rich liberals like yourself perhaps. But I don’t know your financial situation. She was demanding an executive order from the president not a law, which he can do to ban employment discrimination at least on the Federal level. So spare me the little lecture about the balance of powers in the US, I know it very well. Its also lame to say FLOTUS doesn’t have influence when the First Lady since Eleanor Roosevelt has taken a prominent role in using her symbolism behind campaigns, she could easily pressure the POTUS much in the same way Eleanor did to get Black people in the WPA programs. As for it being “rude”, I think it’s rude the president signed NDAA, has unilaterally used drone strikes to kill 3,000 people in Afghanistan and Pakistan, most of whom are innocent women and children, deported more immigrants than any president in history, talks down to black people and funded Islamic extremists in Libya and now Syria. If this was GWB you would be singing a diff tune.
I read this blog. It is a the bucket compared to the donations given by other people. The point is people have donated millions to the Obamas and haven’t been ride and disrespectful so why did she feel 5000 would allow how to. I see you keep referring to people as liberals. Is that supposed to be an insult. FLOTUS has extreme influence over the POTUS of course, that why common sense would dictate that you would make a request of her in proper manner, not like a child throwing a tantrum. It is socially unacceptable to speak over someone. She is the FOTUS she deserves respect. Just because you don’t agree with the POTUS policy, doesn’t mean she wasn’t out of order. The thing that gets get me with people is if you don’t agree with the POTUS actions what are you doing about it. The US has protest process. Have you have written your Congressman? Sent a letter to the White House? Organized a group? Attacking reading on a pro Obama blog is fruitless. As for Michelle campaign is it childhood obesity. It’s never been the practice of the FLOTUS to whisper in the POTUS ear this isn’t the hookup. She COULD pressure POTUS to kowtow to the protestor’s demands but that’s not how it done. As adults we don’t stomp when we don’t get our way. If you cause a disruption then you get thrown out.
Oy, I need the grammar police. Sorry about the typos
“But notice that a rich liberal who gave $5,000 to the Democratic Party and the Obama campaign is suddenly shunned by Michelle Obama and liberal hardliners after using this venue to call for the end of employment discrimination. No discussion about that, nope, just that FOTUS was “disrespected” by another woman”
Your words.
The rich liberal was wrong “she used this venue to call for the end of employment discrimination” which isn’t the right way. In case you missed you third grade social studies lesion the president DOES NOT make and pass laws. There is the three branches of government which work together to ensure checks and balances. The average person should know that, so she should write a letter to her congressman and follow the proper channels, she wasn’t trying to make change in a proper way she was heckling the first lady and got told about herself. There was a discussion the author pointed out repeatedly that first ladies are in not charge of policymaking. You want to give the woman who yelling at a speaker credit because she is fighting for gay right? If she wanted to fight for gay rights she should have done it the right way. Don’t make her a martyr. The discussion was had did you miss reading comprehension too?
Strado Cero, This makes no sense…Be rude to gain What? Did she think interrupting FLOTUS was going to make the Senate and Congress act? Going to make POTUS “hurrup” and do what she wants? Time for childish political pranks is over….
Sir…——->
If the heckler was not so focused on doing things the wrong way, perhaps the “issue” of employment discrimination(ED)might have made the news as a priority. Unfortunately like so many interest groups their “personal” views are more important than the issue. The organization should not have sent a moron to do the job that required someone with more class. They screwed up and probably got put to the back of the line.
And amen again….
Wait, did this Strada Cero broad come up on our baby Luvvie’s blog and interrupt our well deserved cackling about this heckler foolery that Mrs Obama shut down? Oh hell no! Please escort yourself off the blog, Luvvie aint got time for that mess and neither do we. You can stop commenting on other posts like you been here before, because you haven’t. In fact, why don’t you do everyone a favor and just spend a few hours reading Luvvie’s archives, you might actually get you some sense. With that lame ass hammer and sickle icon instead of your stupid face. Sorry, Luvvie, I know I shouldn’t feed the trolls but damn! Please continue to provide awesome commentary as usual.
Did this Strada chick just try to roll up on https://www.awesomelyluvvie.com and not only disrespect Luvvie’s article about our beloved FLOTUS Queen Shelley, but also our fearless e-leader, Queen Luvvie?!?!?! Child, I suggest you run (not walk) to the nearest corner and have yourself several seats and a cool drink of water. Bless your heart. You must not have heard. We don’t tolerate that level of buffoonery here.
Luvvie’s Gladiators will have none of that.
Baby Bye! You ARE the weakest link.
First of all, please take your dead horse and your stick and go beat it on some political blog that gives a flying f*ck. Seriously.
Secondly, no one has time for your derailment. We weren’t talking about the issue which this protester thought was OBVIOUSLY more important than waiting her f*cking turn to speak. We were talking about the fact that she was RUDE AS F*CK, and that the FLOTUS clearly had no time or space for it and let her know that she needed to see herself out.
Your condescension in your comment is the reason why no one here wants to do little more than mock you and then get you to leave. If you want to educate about an issue, being an asshole is a poor method of teaching.
YES! I was like, ugh, haters want to ruin everything. Its like take your ass to Fox News if you want to hate on FLOTUS, cause this is not the website for that.
……..And the alternative to rich liberals would be?…..No thanks.
I’ve read this 8 times….and 8 times I’ve gotten my whole entire life….Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama, Esq needs to teach a class: Shade and Side Eye: The Basics.
THAT CLASS WOULD BE FILLED TO CAPACITY E’ry Semester!! I’d take it!!
“…she thought she could talk AT Michelle with no types of repercussions.”
Exactly! Girl, you didn’t just hit the nail on the head, you pounded it into the ground with a sledgehammer. Michelle doesn’t need Luther the Anger Translator. She’ll get up in your face and let you have it Mother Oprah gave her lessons.
Thank. You. I don’t know why people think they can say anything to folks and not have any repercussions.
Wayment. Dem lessons came all da way from way back w General Harriet Tubman and came on down thru Auntie Angelou, then via Mother Oprah… #verbalbeatdown #living #shedontknowChellysjourney #haveafivehundreddollarseat #takenaback #offmic #work #notimeforthat #daREALhousewife #done #onechoice
As soon as Flotus said “You got one choice” I would have jumped up like “UH, YOU GOT TO GO HOME ELLEN,ELLEN, ELLEN! YOU.GOT.TO.GO.HOME”and sat back down like I made my choice.
HAHAHAHA … Go Mrs. Obama! That is right – she is NOT the one to play with … and how many times has President Obama told them that? ROFLMAO They are TIRED of this garbage…and I am *high fiving* Mrs Obama over here this morning! You.Go.Girl!
HA-LARRY-US!!!!! I’ll type a reply when I stop rolling on the floor laughing! Really Luvvie?!?! Drop kick a teddy bear in traffic? lawdgeeshus
What she said!!!!

Love our (thuggish) FLOTUS, and although I don’t dare lift up the “Black Woman” stereotype — (yeah, that one) — glad the world knows that if you get grown enough to rise up, we will set you down!
I don’t regularly follow your blog, but everytime I do read any entry, I literally laugh out loud at least 2ce. 🙂 Keep doing it great! Always on point! Love your writings!!
What…in God’s name…is that gif of Obama kicking the door from? I’m so bloody confused right now.
YO. I cannot wait until he can speak freely and TELL ALL OF THE THINGS.
YASSSS!! Curvy, I have thought of that moment in my mind many times. In my version, he starts calling folks “Beloved” like Iyanla and then proceeds to read them for filth.
People gone learn FLOTUS is NOT “Millie”. She might look prim and proper but you can expect a southside beat down (verbally of course) for stepping out of line and coming at her like you’re crazy.
Been away for awhile, but this commentary is a most welcome source of wit and entertainment. Yeah we making jokes but the bottom line IS the POTUS & FLOTUS deserve to be respected by everyone! You MAD cuz they got the house, tough. Suck it up and go with it. GWB stole the house nobody said nothing DISRESPECTFUL not ONE mention of impeachment. I’m getting pissed off, I will re-read and continue LMAO! Thanx Luvvie
We live in a country where folks use the 1st amendment like a shield to be rude, crass, and ugly. Personally, I am glad FLOTUS put that chick in her place. There may be some who will pull out the ‘Angry Black Woman’ flag (okay, there WILL be plenty) but who cares? She exercised her ability to let a ninja know she is not to be F-ed with.
For further flucks to not give, I present this: gifsoup.com/view/3608244/mr-rogers-flips-you-off.html
You’re welcome.
HANDS DOWN, the best.post.ever.

Kudos to FLOTUS for pulling the Busta Rhymes (Whoo Ha! I got you all in Check!).
My issue comes from the statement the woman gave after… claiming she was “taken aback” and later saying that FLOTUS “..thought she was going to make an example of me or something.” By implying that she was scared, this woman is further advancing the “Angry Black Woman” stereotype that has plagued this FLOTUS and millions of other unapologetic, assertive and successful Black Women. That woman knew what she was doing with her actions, and following statement, and I for one call BS!!
Look at my eyes…roll ’em! Gone head Michelle! lol

FLOTUS & The Heckler: South Side Chicago In The D.C. House!
………….
A few blogs ensued with their paraphrased version and spin. The funniest, of course, coming from the blog Awesomely Luvvie. However, there is an element that is missing from each reported and paraphrased postings and I don’t need a hot topics team to dig around (Sorry Wendy). I got something better. My MOMMA!
Ok so… members of the D.C. Federation of Democratic Women (an organization that my mother and I are members of) were invited to the fundraiser. A selective few attended, including my mother. The fundraiser was at the private residence of a lawyer and veterinarian, both are originally from Chicago. I actually drove her to the event immediately after picking up my daughter from school. A couple of hours later I noticed she posted photos of the event on Facebook. I downloaded one of the pictures she took of the First Lady and shared it on Twitter; to say that the members of the D.C. Federation got to hang out with “FLOTUS” (First Lady of the United States – you’d be surprise to know how many don’t know that acronym). An hour or so later, I checked Twitter and saw that a reporter and editor from ABC News had reached out to me. They asked me about the heckler and the editor immediately followed both my accounts on Twitter; my Mahoganie_Jade and professional account. We emailed back and forth for a minute as I explained that I wasn’t at the event, but my mother was and could best give an account about what happened.
And she did…..
According to my mother:
And THAT’S what went down!

LOL I’m wearing my “DON’T FUCK WITH FLOTUS T-shirt as I type.
Spot on post, luvvie. Ain’t NOBODY got time for Ellen or her shit.
OMG! I CANNOT!!!
I went to the Post’s site because I was so hoping for a video….but, audio did me just fine. The fix I needed, to hear her utter the words!! Lets begin by saying wrrrroooonnng time Ellen, Mrs. O was fired up! We are here for the chillren and eeeeerrrrr not for YOU MA’AM AND I WILL NOT!……back to what I was saying the CHILLREEENNNN!!!! Yes ma’am! I was giggling AND clapping AND giving her snaps AND bouncing in my chair all at once, in front of this screen like A MANIAC!
Rude ol’ nasty stupid…. ugh!
Hold his collar while he footworks!!!! That’s so 90s teenager Chicago I can’t even take it. Luvvie came that I might have life more abundantly!
The audio makes it even better. She is getting fired up about helping our children and you interrupt with YOUR personal agenda.
That was not the time
or the place
nor the person to confront.
Their are gay children out there that need support too. FLOTUS was speaking for them as well.
I am sick of the disrespect that the Obamas face as leaders of this country. This has never happened before, even Bill Clinton got more respect. I love her poise but don’t eff with me attitude. Love it.
Michelle hit her with the “I can give it to you, but you ‘gon do wit it” and that lady got scurred! I wish I was there, cause I would’ve been in the background like “Ooooo, you got moded!!!”
OMG, I needed this post, you had me DYING at work. Who pays $500 for anything and expects the right to act a fool. So by that crazy logic, $200 Broadway tix allows me to get up stage in the middle of the show and sing Happy Birthday ’cause I paid to get in and it’s my birthday.
From now on, whenever you pay to get in anywhere, just act a fool and see what happens with your life, lol! So glad Mrs. O shut her all the way down!
were i in office, i’d be all “don’t look at me in that tone of voice” to erry single solitary republican that tries to side eye me. erry. single. one.
as for ol’ Shelly from the block, iont even blame her. $500 was the price for your meal. NOT the price for the Be Disrespectful to FLOTUS booth at the local country fair. ellen needa get her life.
Michelle must have read about all the shootings that were going on before she came there. Her voice was breaking all over the place. The heckler just allowed her to let it all out.
Luvvie- did you quote Jeezy up there?! BWAHAHAHA! #dieanotherday
Go Michelle! Shut them homos up!
No sir, just noooo!
Elwood. Sit all the way down.
[…] the “confrontation” (I put that in quotes for a reason, I’ll explain in a few paragraphs), go here. Also, feel free to thank Luvvie for the hilarious Barack door-kicking GIF or the Michelle […]
The following, please note, is intended with respect and humor:
To paraphrase Robin Williams:
Michelle Obama is graceful, she is elegant, she is classy. But piss her off and she can go from “Yes, We Can” to “Oh No, You *Didn’t*”.
Mrs. Obama is one hell of a woman! Took care of it old school. Class and dignity and you know she ain’t playing.
Funny how some folks feel that because they paid some cash they can just decide to show their azzez in any way, shape, or form. She must have thought “Hmm. The First Lady and the President work for us. So Imma go up in this event and show her who is boss and she betta do what I say!”
Instead, she got read and booted the fug outta there for trying to be ratched – crying on the news shows how she felt disrespected. I would love to crip walk my entire foot all up in her ass…
Michelle like “I don’t need no Secret Service, B. Me and Sasha finna jump you in the parking lot while Malia Vines it. Then I’ll break out my law degree an sue you, cuz I’m real”
[…] If you ever needed a reminder that first lady Michelle Obama is a black woman, you got it. In case you forgot, before Barack she was Michelle LaVaughn Robinson from the South Side of Chicago. […]

You know, I still don’t understand what the protester was thinking.
She wanted an executive order signed that won’t do anything and disrespected one of the most LBGT friendly First Ladies in all of history. How is that helpful?
If the protester had money to donate, it would’ve been more useful for a non-profit that lobbies for the type of action she was hollering about.
“Fuck you. Fuck you. YOU COOL. And Fuck you.” Then he should dropkick the White House podium and swag surf into an all night party after telling people “Remember nice Barack? He’s dead.<<<< this had me laiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid luvvie!!! yaaas!!! how dare Ellen think she was entitled to be so disrespectful and think it was okay because she paid to be there. Ellen who taught you this was okay? No ma'm.

YAS!!
The whole time I was reading this I kept hearing “Whoop Dat Trick” from Hustle and Flow in my head. My personal fantasy of the President’s last State of the Union address is for him to come to the podium with a glass of Hennessey on the rocks, remind the American people of all his administration has accomplished, then turn and point to Boehner and tell him and the all the Republicans to kiss his ENTIRE Black Ass and walk out.
