Obama to GOP: Hands Off Michelle



Apparently, Barack Obama thinks he can deliver commandments to the GOP.

He thinks he can determine what's off limits as campaign fodder. He can't.

Michelle Obama is campaigning. She's delivering political speeches. Of course, what she says can be criticized. It's not a "low class" strategy.

From the Associated Press:

"The GOP, should I be the nominee, can say whatever they want to say about me, my track record," Obama said. "If they think that they're going to try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful because that I find unacceptable, the notion that you start attacking my wife or my family."

Obama has no right to attempt to silence people, to prevent them from commenting on things that his wife has said on the record on the campaign trail.

It's perfectly legitimate for the Republican Party to respond to what she says, and he knows it.

Obama and his campaign doesn't hesitate to attack Hillary Clinton's spouse, Bill. They make him an issue.

Watch the Tennessee GOP Ad that has Obama bent out of shape. It's a very positive ad, in my opinion.
