I addressed two people so that I could make one response. No one called &quot;you&quot; out, I simply consolidated my response. As far as jealousy, really, let me state it again for the record. I support BOTH Obamas. Somehow you&#039;ve distilled several fairly lengthy responses down into one sentence and instead of looking at them in totality you got stuck on one thing. So maybe that&#039;s YOUR issue. I&#039;m not still responding because I&#039;m that interested in Michelle Obama. I&#039;m really absolutely floored by how easy it is for some black women to become reactive and judgmental when they are not agreed with. I said what I said and stand by it and in my responses, I think my support for Michelle is clear. I was the one who wondered why it became necessary to announce that MO was now going to be &quot;raising her daughters&quot; and &quot;wouldn&#039;t be speaking on policy issues&quot; prior to her husband&#039;s overseas trip. But apparently, the temptation to jump down my throat was too much for some of you to bear. Instead of engaging in some positive and potentially constructive dialogue on both sides, you have basically said, if you don&#039;t like what we have to say, get off the site. I&#039;ll pass on that, since as a free black woman I can do and say what I please. But we can move on from this topic, although I&#039;m saddened that what could have been an empowering dialogue was jettisoned by what appears to be some real anger at an opinion that doesn&#039;t concur with yours.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since you apparently felt as thought I singled you out, just go back to the post you refer to. I addressed two people so that I could make one response. No one called &#8220;you&#8221; out, I simply consolidated my response. As far as jealousy, really, let me state it again for the record. I support BOTH Obamas. Somehow you&#39;ve distilled several fairly lengthy responses down into one sentence and instead of looking at them in totality you got stuck on one thing. So maybe that&#39;s YOUR issue. I&#39;m not still responding because I&#39;m that interested in Michelle Obama. I&#39;m really absolutely floored by how easy it is for some black women to become reactive and judgmental when they are not agreed with. I said what I said and stand by it and in my responses, I think my support for Michelle is clear. I was the one who wondered why it became necessary to announce that MO was now going to be &#8220;raising her daughters&#8221; and &#8220;wouldn&#39;t be speaking on policy issues&#8221; prior to her husband&#39;s overseas trip. But apparently, the temptation to jump down my throat was too much for some of you to bear. Instead of engaging in some positive and potentially constructive dialogue on both sides, you have basically said, if you don&#39;t like what we have to say, get off the site. I&#39;ll pass on that, since as a free black woman I can do and say what I please. But we can move on from this topic, although I&#39;m saddened that what could have been an empowering dialogue was jettisoned by what appears to be some real anger at an opinion that doesn&#39;t concur with yours.</p> ]]></content:encoded> </item> <item><title>By: NO ID</title><link>http://www.jackandjillpolitics.com/2008/07/michelle-obamas-being-defended-one-article-at-a-time/comment-page-1/#comment-39308</link> <dc:creator>NO ID</dc:creator> <pubDate>Wed, 23 Jul 2008 01:34:03 +0000</pubDate> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.jackandjillpolitics.com/?p=1657#comment-39308</guid> <description>I think we missed a chance at real dialogue here. And unfortunately, I think the negative responses that I got missed any valid points that I made. Maybe I do need to rethink how I said what I said, but the sentiment remains the same. Had anyone pointed that out in a constructive, loving manner, we might have all learned something. But since I have the loving support of black women in my personal life, I don&#039;t need it from folks on a blog who find it easier to spew nasty responses instead of trying to find a common ground. I assume Anovelista, that both WAOD and MOW are your sites. Congrats to you for doing what you believe in. I could have perhaps been one of your allies. But given the way that you handled what should have been a reasonable difference of opinion, I can&#039;t really believe you are as sincere in uplifting black women as you say. So I guess we&#039;ll both go back to doing what we do - you keep on blogging and I&#039;ll keep on doing what I do and have always done - support the black women I love in my life.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I think we missed a chance at real dialogue here.
