I outgrew that decades ago.
You're taking offense at something that wasn't. I'm merely pointing out this named phenomenon of arguments. Notably internet-based ones.

I would think that their are families on welfare with a father at home but if the father is working and not reporting it then that would be a problem but that would go for all races.

What does Rev Jackson have to do with this And just because you don't agree with the causes Michele Obama believes in doesn't make her a coward. Have you even thought for a minute that this has nothing to do with votes.

Would someone help me understand how widening the acceptance of different ways to feed a baby can be considered a restriction on rights?

She's backing Beyonce up for breast-feeding in public. You know how the Obamas kiss her ass.
Why the media forces stuff like this down our throat is beyond me.

I thought breastfeeding was proven to be good for babies. If Michelle Obama is just promoting it and not forcing all mothers to do it then what is the beef? Some women can't breast feed since they don't have enough milk.

All the women I know breast feed in public. You know there are ways to do it and no one knows it is happening.

I know. Just the other day I found myself breastfeeding in public, having been forced to do so by Obama and the Media. And I don't have a kid. Or even breasts!
