I think the Obama daughters show a WHOLE LOT MORE class

[clydefrand]

than this 'repub' puke:

Elizabeth Lauten, the communications director for Rep. Stephen Fincher (R-Tenn.), wrote that the two teenagers should "try showing a little class," "dress like you deserve respect, not a spot at a bar," and, most of all, "don't make faces" at Very Serious public events.

[logosoco]

1. I read about this today. Very petty for a "communications director".

Aside from her terrible attitude, she is also lying when she says it was a very serious public event. The whole "pardoning the turkey" thing is a joke. I loved the attitude of the Obama daughters.

[CTyankee]

11. That's true. Two of my three granddaughters are exactly Malia and Sasha's ages and they

seem so very alike. Respectful, but still just kids. The Obama girls look normal to me, even tho they are under a LOT of scrutiny. I give those two girls a so much credit for being just regular kids --- sweet and nice but still having their own lives (friends, cell phones, thinking about what they'll wear, music).

2. Elizabeth Lauten, Moran

with an ugly streak.

3. --->>> What this is all about, WARNING, "classless" "poorly dressed" black teens inside!!!:

I warned you!



Which prompted this:





Oh, and, NYC_SKP sez:

[jmowreader]

6. They're not dressed any worse than Sarah Palin was at the Turkey Massacre

On edit: Now that I see this year's photo, they're dressed better than Palin was.

[NYC_SKP]

8. That, jmowreader, is Comedy Gold!!!

It never gets old!

12. McCain should be flogged

for nominating this idiot.

7. That was a couple of years ago.

This year they were both wearing mini-skirts and the ceremony was inside. The skirts looked like what I wore in the late '60s and early '70s. Malia was wearing a very short kilt. I had couple of those at about the same length back in the day!

[NYC_SKP]

9. I will update!

Thanks!

14. +1000

what stupid, petty woman. and i think she deleted that post. too late, Lauten...it's still on the internets

[pangaia]

15. The telling part came next,

when she revealed that the whole thing is really about her hatred of the girls' father.

[Odin2005]

19. Those two are so damn tall!

[noiretextatique]

4. her comments are bizarre

where was she when the Bush girls were in the White House? the Obama girls have never dressed inappropriately.

[LittleBlue]

5. The Obama daughters are dressed appropriately

In fact compared to how most high school kids are dressing nowadays, I'd call it conservative.

Attacking Malia and Sasha is whackjobbery of the highest order. F*** them

[jmowreader]

10. Let's talk about "inappropriately dressed," shall we?

And speaking of "dressing for a bar"...I think you're about eight years too late for that, dear.

[DinahMoeHum]

25. Speaking of making faces in public. . .

[malaise]

29. Bwaaaaaaah hahahahahha

What a yawn! Cover your mouth 'moran'.

[jmowreader]

32. You wouldn't happen to have that picture of her father at the Olympics?

Speaking of "disrespect for the office," how does getting falling-down drunk at the Olympics fit into all this?

[DinahMoeHum]

33. There's this picture of him at women's beach volleyball (2008)

Is this helpful?

[jmowreader]

34. The one I want is from the opening ceremony

He's falling-down drunk and his child Barbara is mortified.

[DinahMoeHum]

35. Is this what you're talking about?

It's probably not from the opening ceremony, but from the swimming arena:

13. this sure is appropriate

[jmowreader]

17. It's a good thing Barbara rather than Jenna went to teacher's college

How many times over the course of a school year could the kids tape that picture to the blackboard?

[noiretextatique]

24. every single day

i was reading about the twins on facebook. the person claimed her daughter went to school with them. she said one was a bully, and the other one was sweet. she said the bully harassed her daughter. i suspect Jenna was the bully.

[pangaia]

16. They are receiving a priceless lesson in human nature..

lucky they have such great parents.

[yeoman6987]

18. Republican children tend not to be children

Reagan kids were adults. Bush Senior kids were adults. Bush jr kids were in college. So the last 40 years they didn't even have children. Only JFK, Clinton and Obama had children. So not even able to compare.

[DamnYankeeInHouston]

21. And Carter.

[yeoman6987]

23. Very true!

Embarrassed I left President Carter and Amy out of my reply.

[Odin2005]

20. These people's hatred is disgusting.

Do these people have no shame? Do they have no sense of decency?

[Cleita]

22. If I were a First Lady and had to have two young teenage or early twenties

daughters in the White House, I would take the Obama girls leaps and bounds over the Bush twins, if those were the choices I had. Just saying. The Obama girls consistently show classy behavior. Unfortunately, the Bush girls often behaved like trailer trash. Now I know we aren't supposed to pick on the children, but since some self-appointed critics of Presidents' daughters' behavior have done so publicly, I thought someone should point that out.

[IllinoisBirdWatcher]

26. "Spot at a bar" or "headed to a pajama party???"

I guess "trying to show a little class" is in the mind of the beholder.

At least we know she thinks she looks good in pink.

27. Bo licking his nether parts shows more class than this jackass.

What does it say about an alleged adult who feels the need to pick on a couple of kids? Jeezus. Their father was PARDONING A COUPLE OF TURKEYS, ffs. And, there's nothing wrong with what those girls were wearing.

[Marrah_G]

28. There is nothing wrong with how those girls dress or act

I think they are very much like their mother who seems to be both approachable and classy

[bahrbearian]

30. Well in retrospect the Bush Twins did dress nice

And Chimpy never made faces at important events

[Skittles]

31. oh fer chrissakes

yes they are presidential kids but they are still VERY YOUNG GIRLS -they are not programmed robots

I gave the bush gals slack too - heck, they were TEENAGERS
