Football coach suspended for Michelle Obama insult


An Alabama football coach has been suspended for insults that included comments about the physique of first lady Michelle Obama.


Lauderdale County High School head football coach Bob Grisham will go 10 days without pay for his remarks in a psychology class.

From the Florence (Ala.) newspaper::

"A student taped Grisham's class discussion on Jan. 27 in which he referred to the first lady as 'fat butt Michelle Obama.' He also voiced his dislike for gays, stating: 'I don't believe in queers. I don't like queers. I don't hate them as a person, but what they do is wrong and an abomination against God.'

"Grisham said last week the comments were made in a debate-type situation and that he misspoke. He could not be reached for comment Monday."

As The Washington Post pointed out, this isn't the fist time a public official has made a snide comment about Mrs. Obama.
