Sigh.

Sigh.

This photo and its ignorant caption just won't go away. It's been shared over 6,000 times on Twitter, but the levels upon levels upon levels of bullshit being expressed in the caption must be addressed.

1. Michelle Obama is badass. For almost their entire adult lives, she made more money than he did. In her last role as a VP at the University of Chicago Hospital she was making over $300,000 per year, and that was in 2005.

2. Michelle Obama has a bachelor's degree from Princeton and a law degree from Harvard. Nobody— not her husband, or anybody else—gave her the world. Even being the first lady in general doesn't equate that, but it sure as hell doesn't mean that for her. They are equal partners in life. Right now, and during most of his presidency, she has been more popular than he. She campaigned for his presidency like a woman possessed. Barack didn't give her the world. STOP!

3. The caption in this photo implies that Michelle found a scrub, she stuck with him, and he eventually became a king. That's a damn lie too. She was already working at a law firm and they met at a law firm while Barack was a summer associate. He was completing his education at Harvard Law School at the time. He was the opposite of a scrub: He was the ambitious editor of the Harvard Law Review and was already serving the community in meaningful ways. They were peers and they are still peers to this day.

Hell—I'm convinced that if she ran for president, she could win it.

That's all.

Foolishness sometimes need to be ignored, but in this case, it needed to be addressed head on.
