I really not very sure where this should be … Jokes belong in MPSIMS right? [http://beforeitsnews.com/obama/2014/03/irrefutable-proof-that-michelle-obama-is-a-man-247-2461574.html](http://beforeitsnews.com/obama/2014/03/irrefutable-proof-that-michelle-obama-is-a-man-247-2461574.html) Here’s the proof that you’ve all been waiting for, Michelle is, in-fact, a MAN!! My burning question - who then, should Malia and Sasha be calling Mum? ---

It would explain why “Barry Soetero” didn’t want to release her Birth Cert… BTW – they also show proof that el presidente is named in the bible ---

Thank you for posting that life-changing link. As clearly documented in their careful research, men have longer ring fingers than index fingers. Lo and behold, my index finger is longer than my ring finger. I must now acknowledge the fact that I have been hiding from even myself for 44 years, that I am in fact a woman. That’s all for now, as I am off the join the circus as a bearded lady. ---

My index finger is longer than my ring finger and Florida doesn’t allow SSM. I guess that means I’m single! Also, a lesbian. This is going to be a much bigger adjustment than most breakups. ---

This takes me back 40 years when I overheard a girl telling another that a particular woman passing by was a lesbian. “You can tell by the way she walks.” People have the weirdest theories about certain things. ---

I wonder if Michelle’s and Serena’s lawyers have seen this yet? ---

Why? What do you think they’re going to do about it? ---

> [@Really\_Not\_All\_That\_Bright](#): > > Why? What do you think they’re going to do about it? Well, cease & desist letters, for one. Maybe counsel them on making their own reply video, ya know, maybe something with the theme “CastleJenniferBasset and her ‘husband’ are really hamsters with thyroid problems who are hiding from the law because of all those bank robberies they committed” or something. Or maybe there’s grounds for a slander or libel suit. I dunno, I’m not a lawyer; I’m just an old country snowboarder.
