Video: "My Mom Doesn't Have Papers"

If only she'd addressed the First Lady in Spanish then we would have been talking about this all the way to Memorial Day.  But alas.  Here's the video of that little girl asking Michelle Obama about immigration:  "My mom said Barack Obama is taking everybody away that doesn't have papers," said the 2nd grader at a Silver Springs elementary school.  Then:  "My mom doesn't have papers."  Here's an article about the fallout  (Comments revive debate over mixed-status families).
