I guess if you live long enough, you'll see everything, for this morning the e-zine known as Salon actually published an article about Michelle Obama's butt.
No, sadly, I'm not kidding.
Entitled "First Lady Got Back," the piece actually praised, and discussed in great detail, Mrs. Obama's posterior.
As some readers might find this subject a tad offensive, the lowlights are conspicuously placed below the fold (emphasis added throughout, h/t Ed Morrissey):
But what really thrills me, what really feels liberating in a very personal way, is the official new prominence of Michelle Obama. Barack's better half not only has stature but is statuesque. She has corruscating intelligence, beauty, style and -- drumroll, please -- a butt. (Yes, you read that right: I'm going to talk about the first lady's butt.) [...]
As I gradually relaxed, as Michelle strode onto more stages and people started focusing on her clothes and presence instead of her patriotism, it dawned on me -- good God, she has a butt! "Obama’s baby (mama) got back," wrote one feminist blogger. "OMG, her butt is humongous!" went a typical comment on one African-American online forum, and while it isn't humongous, per se, it is a solid, round, black, class-A boo-tay. Try as Michelle might to cover it with those Mamie Eisenhower skirts and sheath dresses meant to reassure mainstream voters, the butt would not be denied.
The author, one Erin Aubry Kaplan who besides being a Salon contributor is also contributing editor to the op-ed section of the Los Angeles Times, then moved into the totally absurd:
Lord knows, it's time the butt got some respect. Ever since slavery, it's been both vilified and fetishized as the most singular of all black female features, more unsettling than dark skin and full lips, the thing that marked black women as uncouth and not quite ready for civilization (of course, it also made them mighty attractive to white men, which further stoked fears of miscegenation that lay at the heart of legal and social segregation). In modern times, the butt has demarcated class and stature among black society itself. Emphasizing it or not separates dignified black women from ho's, party girls from professionals, hip-hop from serious.
What? Did you get that? But there's more, for Kaplan next bashed prominent white women in our nation for...well, you probably see where this is going:
Many comparisons have already been made between Michelle and Jackie Kennedy. While I appreciate the spirit, I beg to differ. To put it bluntly, Jackie had no back. Same can be said for gaunt Cindy McCain and the short-lived Republican sexpot Sarah Palin. Jackie was trim and perfect, an inoffensive figure who bucked the curviness of the '50s and put American femininity on the treacherous path of smaller-is-better.
At this point, I checked to make sure this was Salon and not National Lampoon. If you need to as well, I understand.
In the end (pun intended), you've likely gathered that Kaplan is quite obsessed with black, female rear ends.
What can you expect from a woman who self-described her LA Weekly article "The Butt" as "One of her most-remembered pieces?"
I'll let the reader decide if Kaplan was speaking literarily or anatomically.

If she didn't like it before - she is only lying about it now. This woman is the nastiest tart that has ever been in the White House and that is saying a lot. After all Hill was there for 8 years and it must have been sheer hell for all around her. When she threw stuff at slick it must have been a Kodak moment?????

November 18, 2008 - 12:26 ET by iveseenitallTypical "liberal" immaturity that passes for "journalism" today. The libs are a classless bunch.
BTW, the "intelligence" of Michelle Obama is another "liberal" lie which, if told long and loud enough, becomes fact. The woman is below average, in brainpower as well as looks and class. Comparing her to Laura Bush or Jacqueline Kennedy is ridiculous. Just as her husband, she's a Chicago street thug with a chip on her shoulder.

Missing the Point
November 18, 2008 - 14:26 ET by cad2222This is a stupid article. But now that the guy's been elected, we should at least show some respect for the President and his family, even if we disagree utterly and completely with his policies. To not do so only demeans America in the eyes of the world, and makes it easier for Democrats to brush off any criticisms we may have of the President and his proposed policies. Journalists will continue to print this garbage about the Obama family as long as its popular, because its helping them make money. Now that the election is over, we should no longer be displeased with articles like this only because they endorse the President, but because they only add to the current superficiality of the American political process and take the focus away from the careful examination of actions and policies that the media should be focusing on.

Actually...
November 18, 2008 - 18:45 ET by mizflame98The bar for respect was lowered because of how the liberals treated Bush. We're better than that and shouldn't use the deplorable behavior of the left as an excuse to be disrespectful to our President elect and his family.

November 19, 2008 - 10:24 ET by ahusserTheir loud, vile, annoying, lying tactics with overwhelming media support destroyed President Bush's Presidency. He was unable to govern as everything he did or said was ridiculed or worse. In the world of REAL POLITICK their campaign was successful because they have the presidency and both houses of congress but we have our manners and our pride. Unless this guy royally, and I mean royally, screws up, he is in for 8 years guaranteed. I am not holding my breath. I am near 60 and I don't believe we will see another Republican (or conservative for that matter) president in my lifetime. The GOP has to get with it play hardball and use the slick marketing tactics of the left. I live in Maryland we have had 2 Republican governor's in 60 years and have, to my knowledge, never had a republican majority in the state assembly so I am used to being marginalised.

She is very ungrateful for a person who has been handed things because of her race that she would have otherwise been denied and then vents this racial discrimination crap.
