Juan Williams, an African-American commentator on the conservative FOX News channel, described First Lady Michelle Obama as a militant who could harm the president with her “blame America,” “I’m-the-victim” attitude.
Juan Williams Williams, a former Washington Post reporter and author, told show host Bill O’Reilly that, like Vice President Joe Biden, “If you think about liabilities for President Obama that are close to him … Michelle Obama's right there.”
He continued, "[S]he's got this Stokely Carmichael-in-a-designer-dress thing going. If she starts talking … her instinct is to start with this 'blame America,' you know, 'I'm the victim.' If that stuff starts to come out, people will go bananas. …”
This isn’t the first dig that Williams has taken at Mrs. Obama.
Referring to an impending speech at the Democratic National Convention last August, he said, "Well, she's got to be herself, but I do not think she can go for it all out in terms of this kind of militant anger that she sometimes uses, you know. She can be, it seems, rather cynical or dismissive of people. … If she goes anywhere near the race issue or the militancy issue, she'll go “from being the new Jackie O to being something of an albatross.”

Divide and conquer!
Michelle has never said anything that could even be conceived as divisive and out of line of her husband's view.
They are still playing the angry Black Female line.
Still fighting the last battle.

i can see how a couple of things she's written and said could make some Americans "nervous". Nothing bad mind you..just some candidness and "transparency" that could make some uncomfortable

...it is his opinion and why cant a black person have a differing opinion about another black person widdout being a sellout? do we as blacks so believe that any one of us reaching anywhere is such an aberration that no criticism can be made juss incase ...
Well mi nevva call him a sellout - but I do believe that he is being divisive and feels threatened that the white house is housing a smart woman who has her husbands ear.
