Do you really trust this woman?

Michelle Obama: Men are Selfish and a Mess

Jim Geraghty at National Review points out an article at The New Republic on Michelle Obama that indicates how she feels about men--they're selfish and a mess:
"What I notice about men, all men, is that their order is me, my family, God is in there somewhere, but me is first. ... And, for women, me is fourth, and that's not healthy." This is not a radical observation: Get a half-dozen gals together with a few bottles of Beaujolais, and a similar theme will eventually emerge. (Trust me on this.) Looked at one way, Michelle was issuing a pointed call for female selfempowerment; but, looked at another, she was offering a poignant commentary on how things have long run chez Obama.
Blah, blah, blah....this is what Michelle Cottle considers "Smart, competitive, organized, and ambitious...". It is considered stylish these days for women to spend all their free time bad-mouthing men because, of course, it is the fault of men that women carry children and have monthly periods. This is where all of the culture of victimhood comes from - sort of like blaming the sun for being hot. There are few things more annoying than this type of selfish (exactly of what she accuses of half the world's population), adolescent whining.
