Not Michelle Obama. Her name is Hadiya Pendleton

No Actually, Michelle, Hidiya wasn’t you. She’s now a dead teenager because of the pit that liberal policies made her town. Gang violence, poverty, no jobs, no hope, no real police protection. Neighborhoods that have been abandoned because there’s no money because no one is working because liberal politicians seem more and more like vampires as they drain cities and towns and finally families of their life blood.

No Michelle, Hadiya wasn’t you. She was a teenager condemned, like so many others, by a political class that doesn’t give a damn, and only sees the average American as a speed-bump on the road to more power and money.

Neither of the Obamas have any shame. The ghoulishness of using dead children as political props is bad enough, but it also always has to be about them. Always. After ignoring Chicago for years and the river of blood it has become, they now show up, I’m guessing because MObama wants something from them and they have to appear concerned. The violence that’s ripping Chicago apart isn’t going to stop because MObama arrives. In fact, violence among young people all across this country has gotten worse because of the Obama regime’s craven leftist policies. That the people of Chicago allow them to return is, in itself, shocking. Their lives of Chicagoans are being destroyed while the Obamas rake in the cash. Horrible, and yet frighteningly, so typical.

Keep in mind she’s in Chicago pushing gun control, so someone should remind the First Lady that guns are already banned in Chicago, and we can how well that has worked out. Now if we could just ban the political class we might actually be able to make a difference in this country.

First lady Michelle Obama made the debate over gun control personal on Wednesday, choking up throughout her remarks on gun violence in her hometown of Chicago.

“I’m here today because Chicago is my home,” the first lady said at a conference on youth violence with various civic organizations, hosted by Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel. Ensuring the safety and future of children in Chicago is her passion, she said. “It is my mission and for me, this is personal because my story would not be possible without this city.”

The first lady repeatedly referenced Hadiya Pendleton, the 15-year-old Chicago girl who performed at an inauguration-related event outside of Washington, D.C., in January, a week before she was gunned down in a city park.

“Hadiya’s family was just like my family,” Obama said. “Hadiya Pendleton was me. And I was her. But I got to grow up. And go to Princeton, and Harvard Law School and have a career and a family and the most blessed life I could ever imagine. And Hadiya, oh we know that story.”

    As narcissistic as the Obamas are, it’s amazing how they’re always claiming to be somebody else.

    Lincoln, FDR, Reagan, and now Hidiya.

    BREAKING: I found the part of Mooch’s speech that was edited out of the video:

    “Hadiya’s family was just like my family… Hadiya Pendleton was me. And I was her. But I got to grow up. And go to Princeton, and Harvard Law School and have a career and a family…”

    And when my husband became an Illinois state legislator, I scored a job as ‘vice president of community relations’ at the University Of Chicago Hospital, for a very generous salary of $121,910.

    And when hubby became a Senator, my salary jumped to $316,962. Pretty kewl, huh? And one of Barack’s first acts in office was to see to it that the hospital received over a million dollars of your tax dollars as an earmark. Suckers! hahahahahaha!!! Cushy no-show job in exchange for political patronage. Fist Bump !!!

    So, you see, Hadiya is me. I am Hadiya.

    And if I had a daughter, she would probably look like Hadiya. Oh wait…

    Not a chance that this is the “height of craven narcissism”. The Obamas are going to find a way to sink even lower.

    The Obama’s care about the Obamas. They used other people’s tragedies to their own personal gain. We the People must take a round turn on this administration. It is painfully obvious we have little to no support in our Nation’s capital. It is up to us to take this on. One more thing that must happen is we push through term limits. Politicians stop listening to their constituents after the 2nd term, so there is where we draw the line. Look at where all the trouble now lies, with establishment beltway barnacles who have managed to stay in office for 3 or 4 decades. Serving America is intended to be a civic duty. These folks have made it a career, and have the nerve to vote on their own pay and benefits packages. We really have to hunker down and take this beast on. One Team, One Mission! I don’t care what your lifestyle, your political beliefs, or your ethnisity is. We are all in this together and must rise above our differences and fight for our liberty. A heavy loadis much easier to carry with more hands on the load to carry it.

      Well said. I’m with you 100% on this. These people are dark entities (and I don’t mean their skin color). Their souls are dark and malevolent (dead).

    Sniff, she must really miss the city that means so much to her. Perhaps she should spend her vacation time there mingling with other teenage girls she identifies with.

    I’m gonna be sick.

    Why are their approval numbers still so high? I just don’t get it. These people are so fake and phony. They only care about themselves, individually. I really believe there’s a veil of deception over the eyes of their supporters. How else can you explain it?

    When they use people’s tragedy for their own gain…it makes me sick.

    Tammy called it correctly, it’s craven.

  10. PopArt says:

    We all need to realize that Barack does indeed have a son… ME! And he has more!! All the American males in fact! And Tammy and all other female Americans are indeed ALL Michelle’s daughters! Why can’t we all learn to live in ignorant bliss in the wonderful foster home called America, being nurtured and fed (usually) and sheltered (hopefully) by our Dear Parents/Leaders?

    • jeaneeinabottle says:

      That is so right on, they want you to think they care>but they BOTH get off on seeing the results. The gov does none of that if you’ve ever dealt with any of these programs. They know it and I think they love taking the money and spend spend spend on themselves and their friends, the destruction is a bonus because it won’t happen to them> makes them feeeeel smarter and better than the rest> sick!

  11. Patricia says:

    This is the epitome of an absolute narcissistic, self-indulgent, leftist maniac planning to run for office. How did this beautiful, wonderful, free country wind up with so many of these people grabbing for the ring of power. Great post Tammy – this needs to be available for everyone to read – please promote this post TAMs; this crap has got to stop.

    Well, my 2-cents is that Hadiya is buried, MOOOooooch is not, now compare.
    MOOOoooch is one sick Social Sociopath.

    Oops sorry, ‘just saying’.
