“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”
Socialist Party presidential candidate Norman Thomas

Do as I say, not as I do
I try to stay from the family of politicians as targets of my opinion but sometimes things just have to be said.
This is Michelle Obama speaking to the local riff-raff in Panama City, pretending to give a damn about the oil spill. I'd like to think her choice of dress design was either a simple oversight or a ham-fisted attempt at solidarity, but it may have been a despicable, inside joke to wear a dress that looks like oil spilled on it. More preposterously still, her speech was to encourage Americans to visit the Gulf region for vacation even though she was about to jet off to Maine for her family vacation.
The whole visit smacked of the superior elitism of a woman who couldn't be bothered with other peoples problems, even though they were complicated and made worse by her hyper-political husband's incompetence, but had to come speak to the little people as a matter of responsibility of nobleship. It was in a word, insulting!
