Conservatives are up in arms over a video that shows Michelle Obama clapping during debate

[Cali_Democrat]

Of course Romney broke the rules when he directly asked Obama a question, but they don't care about that. They're just absolutely furious that Michelle Obama clapped.

Pathetic:

1. Is clapping

...Breaking some protocol of First Ladies?

[Iris]

3. According to the article, the audience agreed to "no clapping" rule.

[Cali_Democrat]

7. She wasn't the only one clapping

Of course Mittens broke the rules when he directly asked Obama a question.

All of this is silly. GOPers are just angry that Obama handed Mitt his ass on a silver platter. Especially on Libya when they've been ranting and raving about it for weeks.

15. I know. I'm just saying. The freepers are so distraught, they're going to pick up on anything

anything at all

[Cali_Democrat]

17. Yup

They know he lost. The Libya thing is really getting to them because they thought it was such a winning issue for them. Within the right wing echo chamber, many thought Libya would bring down Obama. So they see Obama totally deflate Romney on this issue and they are seething.

2. republicantealibertarians don't believe women and blacks should even have rights.

4. Queen Ann

looked like her Botox was about to crack from her frowning.

[RichGirl]

8. In defense of Ann....

Watching Mitt, she probably had serious concerns for her husbands mental health.

[RichGirl]

5. If they have to get that petty and trivial to find fault....

They are very desperate.

We have solid criticism of Romney based on his lies, his distortions, etc...we don't need to pick on Ann.

6. are there even any more straws left in the box?

[Panasonic]

9. Nope.

Now they're TRYING to grasp whatever is inside the BOX itself. As in wood.

[flakey_foont]

10. Oh nos!

A terrorist fist-clap?

[Marr]

11. They're the whiniest people in America, I swear to god.

If they're not pitying themselves for being the only people who do any work, they're whining about something like this.

18. Irony

> If they're not pitying themselves for being the only people who do any work,

As if "work" meant "setting up deals to have a company finance its own destruction while we reap profits from the dead carcass"

[dorkzilla]

12. This freak out is proof that *they* know Obama wiped the floor with Romney

That and blaming the moderator.

They are the most insufferable whiners.

[nolabear]

13. They're lucky she wasn't dancing a jig. I'd have had trouble holding back.

[Indpndnt]

14. Oh, please, repubs. Mrs. Obama clapped at the point when Crowley smacked down Willard.

When everyone laughed. And now they're whining that Annie didn't show her enthusiasm like that?

Seriously? What enthusiasm? She looked like she swallowed a dung beetle. Losers. [url=http://www.cosgan.de/smilie.php][img][/img][/url]

19. the right wing are delicate flowers

all that bravado talk is just a front they hide behind. Biggest crybabies this planet has ever endured.
