An apology to Michelle Obama

Mrs. Obama, I believe you are owed a deep apology for the rude and disparaging ways that my fellow conservatives sometimes speak about you.  Though I may fervently disagree with your husband’s policies and even some of your own policies, my objections are constitutional and ideological rather than personal in nature.

Every person deserves to be treated with love and respect.  That is true regardless of differences and disagreements, regardless of societal status or position, and that certainly extends to you.  I do not claim to be perfect in that respect—goodness knows I’ve made a few exceptions—but it grieves me to see you blatantly disrespected in blogs and comments, and I positively will not condone it.

So ma’am, please accept my sincere apologies.  You deserve much better than that.
