I for one hope they uncover the Underground Train stations someday. That must have taken a lot of digging in secret.

lolsign

Let me be the first to say to Michele...YOU DIDN"T BUILD THAT RAILROAD.

Breaking: Op actually believes Michelle believes that the underground railroad was a train.

Op doesn't know about figures of speech and the use of metaphor.

Typical of a dumbass Republican who rejected education because "it's brainwashing."
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24283895



You mean like when the Dems went off full blast on Sarah Palin when she used the figure of speech that she "could see Russia from her back yard"? It was obvious she was speaking as to how close Alaska is to Russia but the Dems took great delight in making fun of her over it.

Actually Sarah Palin never said that. Demotards quote an SNL skit and think it's a documentary, and we still let them vote as if they were mentally competent.

With respectful consideration of your comment, sir, the ignorance is yours.

Many historians who study and discuss the Underground Railroad, as well as the slaves who were actually involved at the time, refer to it as "riding the train".

Just to be fair I went and did some historical research and could not find any reference to it being called "riding the train". However I will concede it may be out there but I have never heard of it. To me this is a misstatement by our First Lady.

Think about it: She's affirmative action college grad with a thesis on institutional racism.

That African Studies free ride means she just had to say "Martin Luther King" and "Kill Whitey" 3 times and bang, she got a degree.

She has no idea of actual history, science, economics, nutrition, or, God help us, fashion sense.
