Hangin' with Mrs. Obama

Maybe Mrs. Obama could tell them about whether she passed the Illinois bar on the first go-round . . . .

Think globally - act locally.
.
And ignore the turdwhirlers....

It's refreshing to have a first family that likes and comes from cities.

You know spob -- I don't tend to agree with right wing policies and clearly I have even less respect for right-wing political tactics. However, it would never occur to me to express those feelings by attacking Laura Bush -- what is your problem?

Maybe Michelle can replace Geithner atr Treasury since she's so freakin' popular...

It's funny when Obama made a joke about Nancy Reagan's propensity to conduct white house seances (which is clearly a subject worthy of ridicule), he recognized that he had made fun of a right wing icon and apologized for his insensitivity. Yet, right wingers have no compunction about insulting Michelle Obama, despite her iconic status for millions of Americans.
.
That's the problem with the right wing, they have no concept of reciprocity. They like to complain about their leaders, policies and ideas are dismissed, yet that are unable to see that this is exactly what they do everyday.
.
The question has been asked of Republicans before but they have yet to supply a satisfactory answer so I'll try once again: Have you no decency?

What did you think it meant? a few Barbara Bush style photo ops?

Dee, the Republicans are busy fighting against the imposition of a global currency, the Fairness Doctrine and mandatory gay marriage, so I will answer for them: No, they have no decency. Decency is a talking point.

hellslittlestangel -- thanks because clearly the only answer I'm going to get is from you. Now I finally get why conservatives reject evolution. It's not because they believe in God, despite their claims. It's because the theory of evolution is based on the premise that either one adapts or face extinction. The GOP can't adapt if they can't learn from their mistakes and change, so rather than face the inevitable they deny that evolution is real:
.
1) Hoover 1929 crash the fundamentals of the economy are sound -- John McCain 2008 the fundamentals of the economy are strong.
.
2)1933 GOP call for a spending freeze FDR relents and the economy crashes again
2009 GOP calls for a spending freeze.
.
3) Hoover 1950's Senator McCarthy unAmerican activities committee -- commie with hunt
2008 Congresswoman Bachmann the media should conduct a hunt for Congress members engaged in unAmerican activities.

Actually spob, I am pretty sure she passed the bar because she eventually worked for ACORN, and I do believe that is where she and Obama first hooked up. Right?
.
I suppose while she is planting this token and old school "Victory" garden ala , she might plant a few ACORNS in the back of the White House to have a great ACORN oak tree!! Imagine that!!
.
The President calls for Victory Gardens...

I think if I remember my grandpappy sayin', "ol' Ms Truman had her negros gettin in the dirt to plant that garden in the back of the White House. She didn't like to get dirt on her hands, not when she had a whole house full of negros to do it for her".

rusty well there you go, now that you've gotten it off your chest we can all get what all the vitriol is about. You're pissed off because when you look into the mirror on the wall of your double wide you finding it more difficult to get your kids to believe that you're at least better than the Negroes.

Will Amy Sullivan and Time magazine be able to contain their glee when Michelle Obama begins to conduct same-sex "marriages" in the White House with unrepentant terrorist and dear friend William Ayers officiating?

What's next? Will Amy Sullivan orgasmically allege that Michelle "For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country" Obama supports the United States military?

I'd love to see Michelle Obama as a great humanitarian force. For instance, it would be great if she could vouch for an increase in our foreign aid budget. The Borgen Project has good info on the estimated cost of ending global poverty:

$30 billion: Annual shortfall to end world hunger.

$550 billion: U.S. Defense budget.

Better than you do textee, because you and your friends right wing crazies don't represent the military. The vets I know would never talk to woman publicly in such a vulgar and disrespectful manner.
Perhaps you missed that chapter in Tom Clancy latest novel. And over the last eight years the GOP hasn't done one thing to keep rank and file families off of food stamps.

Seriously why do you keep wasting your time? I mean damn its pretty obvious that you will never have any effect. That means the only two sane options are to ignore or deride. Reasoning is futile.

SG -- just bored, practicing my Mavis Bacon typing skills.

FWIW, sg, going with "deride" just before lunch provided me with an entire day's entertainment.

Friar Tuck
.
Oh I am all for deriding. Or just throwing an anger bomb in their direction and just watching their heads explode.
.
Like if I were to repeat the rumor that Laura Bush gave Colin Powell smoking head while Shrub watched.
.
DUCK!

when Michelle Obama begins to conduct same-sex "marriages" in the White House
.
I wish you guys could hear me laughing right now.

Actually on my last real estate tax assessment it was $450k, Ms Dee, but hey, who is counting here?
.
Actually, my "vitriol" has everything to do with disrespect. The complete and utterly vile disrespect that is played out here day after day about our, yes our last President.
.
All the Bush bashing that continues from the Obama / Clinton primary hasn't stopped. Even today, may have been yesterday, VP Biden continues to bash the Bush Administration. Today, Amy Sullivan writes a blog stating "Quote of the day...George W. Bush is just kicking himself for not using that little gem in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina".
.
I am some how missing the joke here. So, the ropes have been unleashed on Swampland. All bets are off as they say. Let the Obama bashing begin.
.
Or, in a dire time of Crisis when millions upon millions of Americans are out of work, wondering where they will get their next dime from, those of us who are fortunate could "respect" each other and give them a hand up. But no, the liberals want to continue Bush bashing. I guess it was so much fun during the election, why stop now. Right?
.
I for one would like to see the days shortly after 9/11 come back, when we all stood proud together as Americans, once again. But, my faith in that thought will be perverted by the likes of most of the liberals on this site.
.
As they say, if you can't beat them, join them. I can bash back as hard as anyone on here.
.
Did you see the video yet of Obama, subserviant to the King of Saudi Arabia yet? That is going viral on all the Repub blogs. Bowing to the MUSLIM King of Saudia Arabia. An American President no less. I guess the Chinese told him no more money. Now he is gong to hit the ole King up for a few TRILLION to spend.

"I am some how missing the joke here."
.
On that we can all agree.
.
BHO is so gay for the King he held his hand and walked him back to his private home for who knows what! No wait that Bush.

Yeah Bush and the Republicans had SO much respect for our veterans

Its phucking reprehensible that our VA screwed over veterans who returned home from combat with PTSD. But check this out, the trolls won't mind because it happened under Bush's watch. But let it happen under Obama's watch and they will sh*t a brick. And the end it will prove yet again that Rethugs don't really care about our men and women in the military unless they can use them to score cheap political points.

I think that Michelle Obama will appeal to most Americans the way Laura Bush did, except for the most partisan. She's very real and down to earth. I'm grateful she's not wearing red-carpet worthy clothes, but clothes I'd wear. The garden idea is a good one, too. Gardens are what saved my grandparents' generation when they were young. Younger generations may have lost that. The job of the First Lady as I understand it is to identify your passion and use your influence to use that passion for good. Michelle Obama is doing that.

'All the Bush bashing that continues from the Obama / Clinton primary hasn't stopped. Even today, may have been yesterday, VP Biden continues to bash the Bush Administration."

Rusty-And Bush never did anything to deserve the bashing he receives Rusty. Give me a friggin break. Bush is the reason why this country fines itself in the position it does today. He was a complete and utter failure. Period. And while he wasn't alone in causing this mess because he had a lot of help from weak a@@ democrats (like Pelois and Reid and Daschle and Clinton and Obama, he was the commander in chief and if you want to give him credit for keeping us safe then you have to acknownledge that keeping our finances safe was not his strong suit. And he failed.
.
Now Bush is in Dallas living the friggin life while hardworking Americans are losing everything and you want everyone to ease up on this motherfu@ker. Fu@k you!
