Is Michelle Obama going to talk to some sex workers in India

[HelenWheels]

My sister and BIL are going on about this using the stats from Malkin and Limballs that the India trip is costing 200 Million a day and that Michelle is going to talk to some sex workers there about their plight.

"News Flash: Buffy the first lady of the United States might be meeting with the hookers < "sex workers"> of India." This was the comment that started it all. I want to know what she meant when she referred to Michelle by the name Buffy.

1. Too bad Michelle isn't really Buffy...

I can think of some vampires she could slay.

9. ~sigh~ I don't think they mean, that Buffy.

There's two ways they can be going with it. It could be Buffy the Body, who's basically a plasticized hyper-sexualized video vixen. You can see her on the net if you type in Buffy the body. And for all intents and purposes---can be confused for a sex worker not to mention she's also known within the community as not being very pretty---but having a slammin' fake body. I won't go into how it call came out that she's basically siliconed...it happened years ago.

Or it's just irony...on the blond upper crust people at the country clubs who act nouveau riche, tend to call their daughters who are clones of them Buffy. ie...Michelle Obama is trying to scrub off the Blackness and be one of the "elites"; so to speak.

I personally think it's directly related to no.1.

20. Considering Buffy the Body is black, you're probably right.

Pathetic assholes. Seriously. WTF is wrong with people?

2. Rep Boehner's been talking to some sex workers in Washington.

I mean lobbyists.

3. That's all you questioned was the name Buffy?

4. Michelle is also called Da Wookie

and I have no idea what that means.

5. If I should take a stab at it for you. I've seen this used before against Blacks--Star Wars.

Basically...it's in reference to Star Wars---Wookie's. So they are comparing Michelle Obama to looking like a Wookie. And to take it one step further, since wookie's are similar to early primates---It's a way of saying Michelle Obama is a Gorilla without directly saying she's one.

They put the extra "Da" in there to relate to what some have deemed "Black speech" in which, "The" turns into "Da"---ie rap stars. All used to denigrate Blacks.

6. I see, a racist slur, despicable /nt

11. 100%. n/t

7. So, in an odd circle of references...

Yoda's original name? "Buffy". Seriously.

10. Check out post no.9...I answered the Buffy reference. It's not anything to do with SW.

The Wookie reference is though.

[Drunken Irishman]

19. Yup.

A knock all around. A knock about her color and height. Disgusting.

Fucking disgusting.

[Number23]

16. You sure about that?

I have no idea what that means.

:shrug:

8. Refer you sis and BIL to the Snopes.com article debunking the costs of the trip to India.

[Whisp]

14. better yet, refer them to an analyst. why bring this poop here?

yes, we know there are stupid people out there. we have enough here already. thanks

[Hekate]

18. Spot on

[HelenWheels]

22. Thanks, I did look up snopes and my niece had beaten me too it

As for bring the "poop" here, if it were just my sister and bil I would just let it go but there are 4 kids in that house that need some intelligent guidance.

12. David Vitter will be doing the same thing in New Orleans. Of course ...

Michelle will be atempting to discern how their existence might be improved, while Vitter will be haggling over the price, but still ...

[alcibiades_mystery]

13. Your sister is a racist, as is your brother-in-law

You should tell them so, and ask them to keep their racist nonsense out of your presence.

15. i think she requested a visit to a red light district but was denied by the Govt

some NGO had asked her to come.

so she wanted to help women , most likely underage girls who are being sexually exploited . what is wrong with that.

i agree with the other poster who said your sister and BIL are probably racist.

21. Vitter did. He has been reelected Senator without any problem.
