I Am Aware of All Internet Traditions

This is why I love LG&M. So, d, as is his habit, wrote a "shorter" post mockingly condensing a wingnut blogger's argument about how sweet it would have been if Michelle Obama were on tape attacking "whitey" (Michelle, to her credit, has one badass response to this smear).

So thank you, anonymous clueless internet troll. You have improved the world, and more specifically the world's meme supply, immensely.
