I have seen versions of both, one on video where she clearly does say it. I have never seen an explanation for the discrepancy in various versions.

I think we had this discussion at the time. And even if she didn't say really (which I doubt), where is it written that we must all march in instant lockstep and express the mandated level of pride in anything?

Talk about PC run amok and herd think trampling on private thought. A lot of the Tories in the colonies in 1775 said the same thing to the rebels, how can you not adore your king?

Back in the days when I first started posting on this thread, it was with the hope that finally there is a thread where we could have some serious dialog. Via this dialog, we could be persuaded to change our opinion based on not only the civility of our discussions but also on the sincerity. Yes indeed, on this thread we have and continue to exchange our thoughts in a passionate and civil manner.

Moving on, I think some of us can be more sincere with our posts. Obviously, I was not thrilled to receive garbage posts on this thread yesterday on this issue from BearBob. To elaborate, here is the original video of what Michelle said about her being proud:

And this is the video that BearBob posted, a doctored version where the word "really" was blanked out:

You decide where we are going to take our politics. Ii think we have had enough for the past 7 or so years.
