The news alert flashed across the TV screen.
The 1st Lady – amidst a lot of pomp and circumstance – jetted off to the London Olympics where she immediately proceeded to engage in a pep talk to boost the morale of TEAM USA.
My jaw dropped when she uttered up her first words at the podium.
“Hi y’all!”
Say what?
Addressing the Olympic hopefuls in this manner was just as bad as referring to ‘em as “yous guys” (in my estimation).
Mrs. Obama came across as an uneducated Southern hick who lacked English skills.
I felt embarrassed for her!
In a nutshell?
Maybe Michelle should take a few night courses in public speaking, English and Grammar, and what-have-you. Or, in the alternative, hire a speech writer.
Obama’s “better half” set a poor example for the youth of today, don’t ‘ya think?
