Okay, Mr. Obama ... what now?

I highly suspect that the question Michelle was expecting was to have been about healthy eating and was supposed to have been asked by the girl with her hand stretching fruitlessly in the air ... but instead, well most of you know the rest of the story ... Watch the video (by clicking here) for the most heart-warming exchange between a child and Mrs. Obama that you will ever see and hear.

The rest of the story:

Early in the day today, with TV cameras rolling during an event to promote healthy eating, a second-grader (the little 7 year-old in green) at a Silver Spring elementary school unexpectedly asked first lady Michelle Obama why the president was "taking everybody away that doesn't have papers."

That simple question shook the Cable News Networks in ways that yesterday’s primary elections couldn’t--and it caught both the President (within a few minutes, I’m sure) and both parties with their pants down.

And the video cameras rolled on.

Sitting helplessly with the little girl's question booming in her ears (and heart) in front of about a dozen schoolchildren and with the first lady of Mexico by her side, Michelle Obama told the girl: "That's something that we have to work on, right? To make sure that people can be here with the right kind of papers."

A good, politically correct response, I’d say.

But the little girl wasn’t finished. Totally unscripted, the little girl in the green cotton outfit in the picture above blurted out …

"But my mom doesn't have any papers."

In an instant, the spontaneous and innocent child’s voice crystallized both the power and complexity of the immigration problem.

What now, Mr. President? A beautiful seven year-old child and her frightened (by now) mother are waiting.

Millions of children just like this little girl have been waiting for an Immigration Law that will protect both them and their families.

PUT IMMIGRATION REFORM BACK ON THE TABLE NOW AND WITH THE ENTHUSIASM YOU SHOWED BEFORE NOVEMBER OF 2008!!
