Barack on anti-Michelle attacks: “It’s Infuriating, But It’s Not Surprising”
Everybody who knows Michelle knows how extraordinary she is. She’s ironically the most quintessentially American woman I know. She grew up in a “Leave it to Beaver” family. She is the best mother I know. And our kids are a testimony to that, because she’s really had to raise them, oftentimes without me being there. She’s the most honest person I know, she’s smart, she’s funny, so yeah, it infuriates me. And I think that it is an example of the erosion of civility in our political culture that she’s been subjected to these attacks, and my attitude is that the people who have attacked her in the ways that they have…if they’ve got a difference with me on policy, they should debate me. Not her.
