Obama: "Lay off of my wife"

Barack hits back hard on the accusation against Michelle's "pride" in being an American.  And he makes it clear that there will be consequences if his warning goes unheeded.

The threat?  You go after Michelle, and we go after Cindy.  And boy, do we have plenty to go after.  Secret tax returns, lobbyist connections, and my personal favorite -- stealing medications from charity.

Sharpen your swords, Kossacks.  Post your most damning (but substantive) criticisms of Cindy McCain in the comments.

UPDATE:  Clammyc's diary from a week or two ago talks about the dirty money.
