The director of a West Virginia development group and a mayor are under scrutiny after a racist post about first lady Michelle Obama caused a backlash and prompted calls on social media for both women to be fired.
Clay County Development Corp. director Pamela Ramsey Taylor made the post following Donald Trump’s election as president.
Her post said: “It will be refreshing to have a classy, beautiful, dignified First Lady in the White House. I’m tired of seeing a Ape in heels.”
When people do stuff like this, do they really look at themselves? Maybe some of these same women should look at themselves and realize, many black women as they age also maintain their looks, and their skin texture; as oppose to, many white women when they age, their looks becomes challenged and their skin texture becomes very much challenged. This is a "nature thing" and no person has control over it, and no amount of store bought products can cover or change those factors.
Is it more a matter of envy or resentment, because they can't digest the fact of Michelle's beauty and poise.
Sadly, "SOME"... white people are far too often deluded by the image of a slim figure white woman, they measure so much by the imagery of a slim figured white woman, until we even see in the media of internet and every place, if a woman is slim figured and white, they are immediately trying to confer some overly exaggerated adulation upon her, to the point they have even conflict among their young about body image that continues to damage young girls lives. This is how "ignorance plays itself into a mess".
This just goes to show, "white people have issues that continue the racism in American" . What they should be asking themselves, is why do they feel so inferior that they have to always try and push some delusion that being white is their rock to stand upon. Maybe if they focus on character and integrity and the base honor-ability as being a human being, they'd have less time to be hung up on their skin color.
It's purely insane, after 100's of years, so many still have this level of ignorance ingrained within them.
Before long the mix and blend of the races in this nation will be such that, no extreme skin tone be it white or black will be able to try and put themselves up as some "Icon" of Society.
I don't like posting in these kinds of threads but I HATE this mentality.
I don't like Michelle Obama's political comments, but straight up she is one intelligent, beautiful woman, a great mother and Barack Obama is one lucky guy.
I hope you millenials change this kind of thinking.
Only ignorant, racist people talk like that. It saddens and angers me that in 2016 we're still dealing with this BS and the people who say these things. Education, real education is the only answer.

Two people,and you have condemned an entire segment of the population.....?
Seriously OP, you are being extremely dramatic and wordy over this. Your posts always seem to be a mile long. Brevity is your friend. Allow me to demonstrate:
Two dumb women made racist comments about Michelle Obama and are losing their jobs as a result. Yay for appropriate consequences to stupid actions.
You sorely failed to grasp what she is saying... Expand your mind and you might figure out the point she made and the spectrum of the point.
