. . . "and it is especially painful to hear amid the national conversation surrounding the Lindsay Clancy trial.”
But her attitude about it is probably the worst I’ve heard from a parent. She sounds more like a childless person boasting about why not having kids is so liberating than an actual parent.
"Barack Obama’s wife, Michelle Obama, has spent years cultivating an image as America's most relatable first lady, the warm, down-to-earth mom everybody loves.
Yet, it seems like every time she opens her mouth, she proves what a horrible person she is. We’re talking Hillary Clinton-level bad.

I'm going to see them tonight for dinner. I love them. But Barack cried when they went to college. I was like, 'Bye, goodbye!'" she said.
Stewart tried again, describing what he misses about his own daily grind. "The thing I miss, though, is the job. It gave meaning and a pattern to my life," he said. Barack Obama’s wife simply replied, "I'm good…"
