Because Republican attacks are tackier:
“But I do want to say this to the GOP. If they think that they’re going to try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful. Because that I find unacceptable,” he said.
Obama praised his wife’s patriotism and said that for Republicans “to try to distort or to play snippets of her remarks in ways that are unflattering to her I think is just low class … and especially for people who purport to be promoters of family values, who claim that they are protectors of the values and ideals and the decency of the American people to start attacking my wife in a political campaign I think is detestable.”
What a whiner. Are you threatening me?
h/t Memeorandum and Liz and Todd
Yes, because it’s okay to suggest to old people that John McCain is going to steal their Social Security checks from them, which, um, is just a flat lie.
But criticizing something that Mrs. Hopeyknickers actually said when she was out stumping for her husband? Hey man, totally out of bounds.
“Obama praised his wife’s patriotism”
To what country or organization.
Yeah, let’s not drag anyone’s wife into it.
My husband praised my patriotism just last night.
Maybee takes me to a place I like, but should stay away from while at work.
Stood at attention, did he?
Hoo, boy, talk about trying to get in front of a story.
It’s an issue with me if she ever maliciously disparaged “whitey” in front of an audience, or said other ugly extreme things along those lines. I find that unacceptable, and “snippedness” isn’t going to exuse it.
Whatever we do, let’s leave the wife out of it.
I just told my wife that she’d BETTER GET OFF HER ASS AND START REALLY LOVING THIS COUNTRY WITH SOME SOME SERIOUS PRIDE!!!
She laughed … and then hit me in the groin with a wine bottle.
Crawling away….
Mine said he liked my platypus. In public, even.
BTW, Dan, if you tossed in a h/t to Memeorandum, you would get more traffic.
Karl: The NYT has to be joking, right?
Oh, for the love of all that is holy! NOT THE CORPORATE JET DISCOUNT!
IMPEACH!!
Oh, wait. You mean the NYT is serious
Must be Down Under for beaver.
ouch, BJTex.
The opposite here, I am getting hit for criticizing my old country and the gonevs/thieves who run her .
Fuck ’em both.
“they should be careful. Because that I find unacceptable,†he said.”
Yes we can, Mr. Community Organizer.
Thanks, Karl, for that link in #8. An excerpt:
And, since the NYT editorial write failed to mention it, as that $1 million earmark did for Michelle Obama’s employer (whereupon she got a nice, fat raise). But that, of course, made Mrs. O(!!) feel even more shame for her country, knowing her worth was tied to shabby political wire-pulling.
Wouldn’t it be more better if M’chelle sorta just shut her skeezey mouth? If she’s gonna make a spectacle of herself you really can’t blame people if they notice.
I’m too lazy/disinterested to go find it, but I understand Larry “Islamic-Terrorism-Is-No-Big-Deal-And-The-Threat-Is-Overblown” Johnson (circa Aug. 2001) claims he has it on very solid grounds that the GOP has video of MichellO screeching about “whitey” at TUCC.
See how I can spread gossip on the intarwebs without a smidgeon of guilt?
“you really can’t blame people if they notice”
Why not ‘feet? BHOworld is ahistorical and ageographical (not to mention agnostic and amoral). BHOrules are whatever he says they are today and and questioning them opens you to certain charges…
“Skeezey”
An excellent choice, sir.
May I also suggest out imported varietals “skeezer” and “skeezba”.
BHO makes me uncomfortable. I actually like M’chelle a lot better. If you watched the video she makes no apology for being skeezey, while Baracky tries to paper over it with words and stupid scripted threats he’d never dream of directing at Ahmadinejad or Chavez. I mean for real, did anyone watching that video actually get the impression that Baracky can defend M’Chelle better than M’chelle can defend herself? M’chelle could even do it without a teleprompter I think.

Hi Fox News!
BTW, didn’t the whole “snippets” meme get played out with Jeremiah?
hf,
Michelle could defend herself more forcefully than O!, but not better from the standpoint of trying to win votes.
…because of the skeezeyness.
“Obama to GOP: ‘Lay off my wife!'”
“Bill Clinton to Obama: ‘Shazam! I want to lay ON your wife!'”
You know, maybe she was right. We really are just a mean country. And I fully intend to get meaner and meaner if she intends to keep telling me what an asshole I am because of my whiteytude
LEAVE ‘CHELLEY ALONE!!
For me, MichellO takes me back to my junior high days. We had two races riots because two black cheerleader candidates were denied the squad (or so the story went.) One was named “Queenie” and the other was named “Princess.”
I’m dead serious–I’m purposely omitting the last names and year(s).
The moral? Don’t keep MichellO off the cheerleader squad.
What flavor is O!’s kool aide?
Sour grape.
“Comment by kelly on 5/19 @ 3:53 pm #

Sorta like whine no?
Well then, if the spouse is off limits, then the O! needs to take back all of that stuff he was saying about Bill Clinton. And Cindy McCain is off limits, too.
So that mention of the Corporate Jet?? Off limits, guys.
Or probably not.
BECAUSE OF THE HYPOCRISY!!!
That’s probably true but it makes him look kind of like when the boss tells you that if you have problems with his staff you need to take it up with him. Really just another facet of a personality cult I think.
– I think Feets that, as Obamy said, we should all be ashamed of ourselves for living in a country that actually has air conditioning.
– Oh…..and he thinks you eat too much.
What’s really amusing is how well this ties in to the other thread. Obama sez criticizing his wife is “absolutely unacceptable”. What’s he got to back that up? It’s an empty demand. He’s got nothing. The Press is likely to go along, because they’re all in the tank for him, but Republicans won’t — and shouldn’t — but the real question is: what happens when he tries that sort of bluster on the Iranians or Hamas?
Regards,
Ric
The NYT doesn’t like Cindy McCain giving The Maverick dicounts on the corporate jet. Isn’t this the same outfit that gave MoveOn.org an advertising discount for calling General Petraeus a liar?
I bet for real with his freaky high-strung metabolism and all that tension he carries he probably eats way more than I do. But a lot of it is probably the cigarettes I bet.
– After years of listening to the Left explain the nuances of their statements it might be apropos if they change their party tag to:
– “I know you heard what we said, but what you don’t understand is that we said wasn’t really what we meant.”
– O!, look Martha…..OB is sneaking behind the sofa on his hands and knees to get away from the “unconditional” screwup….Isn’t that cute….
It was really stupid of Obama to get into this whole “lay off my wifey” crap. I think he “interjected” so quickly as a knee-jerk reaction, rationally fearing that whatever Michelle said would just double his troubles. Obama worried that the spouse who wears the pants might spew out yet another perniciously negative, nasty, anti-American sound bite.
I just decided that if BNaracky gets elected, he will be the worst President America ever had.
Worse than Jimmy Carter.
Discuss among yourselves.
“Sorta like whine no?”
Heh. In Vino Veritas.
OK, I’ll start, Mr N. O’Brain.
1976 was coincided with my age of franchisement so I know a bit about that Carter fella. I think I voted for him.
*hangs head in shame*
All these years later one would think I would have this noun/verb agreement down as well.
Mark Levin was just interviewing Fred Thompson and asked him about Baracky line in the sand:
I love me some Baracky, but that whole “but you are supposed to be promoting family values – you can’t be mean” thing is just as silly as the other side saying “yeah but you are supposed to be promoting tolerance and peace, why are you cussing my ass out?”
Come on B-Smoove. Get your balls, screw them on, and lets get down to some dirty campaignin’, bitches.
“I think is just low class ”
Us proles resent that Mr. elite community organizer.
B-Smoove or Smoove B? Inquiring minds want to know.
Smoove B gets everybody’s vote. How can you not?
#50: Smoove B could definitely unite this country. Fuck it, he could unite the world.
A sample of a memo from the WH to Nanci Pelosi: Girl, Smoove B will not be comin’ to your party unless you get him his votes.
#50: BTW, that was fucking hysterical.
Yeah.
Hell, now I wanna have dinner with him.
You know, it’s a shame Dave Chappelle went nuts and quit doing his show. He coulda had a lot of fun with Baracky.
“I’m Barack Obama, bitch!”
Holy Moly.
Mississippi is just a harbinger of the huge gains I portend in Congress.
With that Ace in the Hole, Progressivism will know no bounds. Regressives have had their day in court and have been found wanting.
Just as their are no guilty persons in prison, there are self-effacing conservatives. Just as Napoleon wondered how he arrived on that island called Elba, you folks will be saying “Whoa happened?” during another 40 year Dem majority in Congress. But no need to wonder. Just ask me.
I may have to take pity on your poor, huddled masses and refrain from
dispensing more salt-peter to your haggard libidos. I will give you credit for having the same temerity and stone-cold tenacity as the lost-cause, Hillary. But forgive me if I stoke the fire under the
Hell-Broth of Regressivism in the meantime. Until that witche’s brew
of cacaphonic absurdity reduces to it’s baser element of sticky toxicity, I will be around to remind you why you fell so far, so fast.

#53: HA HA!!!!!
Wow he had me at “Come to my penthouse (his tenth floor penthouse, no less). But the sumptuous duck and the Ralph Tresvant? I die.
Do you remember a song called “Before You Turn Off the Lights” from the late 80s or early 90s? It was a slow rap song and was pretty popular (it had a tight base), but looking back, the lyrics were very worthy of Smoove B: “Yes, my name is Shakespeare; a world class poet; so kick back and relax yourself baby; let me pour you a glass of Moet; darkness will be your blessing; as I bring you extreme delight; but first you must allow me, Shakespeare..to turn off the lights…. ”
The rap goes on and on, getting progressively more ‘seductive’ (read: hilarious). Obviously, a classic piece. Jheri Curl era goodness.
I’d say Obama rivals Prince Humperdink in the ominous threats dept.
Were you ever into Kurtis Blow, Lisa? He had some great ones:
“Got my Masters and my Ph.D. at Tons of Fun University”
“Gucci made my boots, all the little Hong Kong ladies stitch my three-piece suits”
Here’s another favorite from my college days. Fatter than a spliff:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POe70OKEdI8&feature=related
I can’t say I remember that one, Lisa. And I can’t help asking if the world class poet makes “Moet” rhyme with “poet”. Because that would be hilarious.
#60: Kurtis Blow was awesome. I miss people rapping about basketball and your woman running off to Japan with another man. That was good stuff.
#62: Yes he does. And it is indeed hilarious. Listen here: http://www.imeem.com/jmoney1075/music/zKRDtQ5V/before_you_turn_off_the_lights/
#61: That is a good song. And that outfit he is wearing is delightful.
– Gee, its a crying shame the way all you NeoCons go along ignoring Nutless Cleo’s triumphant trek to the top of the political mountain. A well deserved victory after so many nights plling his little weenie in some darkened basement bedroom, dreaming of skewering Nancy Pelosi. We should all politely applaud and give him his due.
(shhhhh…..be kind…no snarky comments about the “mountain”….so its a dipsy dumpster……why disillusion the poor Cleo….at least allow it a few moments of false euphoria before you mean anti-progressives break into riotus peels of…..heh……heh heh…….ha ha ha …….heh……ha ha…..oh lordy……BWAAAAAAAaHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAA…..haaaaaa…….snort……heh…wheres the damn klennex…….hrrrrmmmm…..gawd…..
almost busted a gut there…..heh…..)
Hahahaha. Good stuff, Lisa.
Shout out to the old people: what was that popular 70s song where all the singers mention their zodiac signs?
Float….float on……
Awesome song.
– BTW….You have to give O!’s handlers some credit. Between the bogus “diplomacy battles” with Bush and McCain, and the BS cry baby comments about how his poor Marxist wife is being treated, they just have to keep it going for two more days, and Hill-Bots crushing win in Kentucky will get minimal coverage. Of course the Progressive lap dog press is on board as usual. But that damn FOX…..what to do about that damn FOX……heh…

Hahaha. My wafro was WAY better than that.
Oh, that’s classic stuff, Lisa.
If they think that they’re going to try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful. Because that I find unacceptable,
translation: “If you think you are suffering, just imagine what I have to endure.”
What is Baracky threatening them with? We all know all he will do is talk to them.
What is so unacceptable about quoting her? Why should she be given any more latitude than any other politico? She is out campaigning, making these statements, and yet it is somehow out-of-bounds to hold them to task for their words. Convenient, that.
Personally, I can’t wait to find out what else Senator Obama finds unacceptable.
And I’m not even a Republican.
What is Baracky threatening them with?
Unilateral appeasment, that’s what.

Danm you. I just bought this keyboard today.
I guess it’s back to Staples again tomorrow…
Or did I mean to say “Damn you”?
Probably, but I wouldn’t testify to that in court.

Well, just in case your husband fell asleep early tonight, I will praise your patriotism in absentia.

What is the matter with you, JD?
She is a “brown person”, and, therefore, out of bounds, no matter how fucking nuts she is. Who gives a shit about the fate of this country when you should be bowing and scraping to a “brown person” and any idiocy that he/she spouts?
Idiot! Don’t you know nuthin’?
I hope I have educated you about the etiquette of O’Ba’Messiah and his bamd of merry… ummmm… LOSERS.
Stick a fork in this country if O’Ba’Mesiah is elected president with a veto proof majority in congress. We will never be able to repair the damage that these children will do.
And Ted Kennedy will be able to kill all the womyn he wants to, with no blow-back. Because he loves the “Messiah”, and in fact, is so pissed at the Climtons that he will never be able to extract his head from O’Ba’Messiah’s ass. EVER! EVER! EVER!!!!
Yeesh! This O! guy is pretty scary.
“Jimmy Carter Gone Wild!” And I don’t even want to see O! pull up his shirt and show me his “puppies”, or his wife’s, for that matter.
I just love Marxists who can’t even deal with a sloppy shot…They are SOOOO “stand-up” that they have to deny their beliefs when they are hit with even a wussy shot.
Stand up for your beliefs! Or are they too ashamed to be honest about wanting to fuck EVERYBODY over?
O’Ba’Messiah is the all too real incarnation of Snowflake.

Holy Moly…’
well, fine and dandy, Semanticlueless.
What impresses me about the leftards is their (your) total ignorance and shunning of the constitution. They (you) are convinced it says whatever is convenient to “the cause”. A “Living document”, don’t you know…
Sad. So sad. Ignorance is the new “feel like a rock star” of the leftards. Mouthbreathers, all.
It’s too bad that history, human nature, and logic have been discarded by the leftards. You leftards are just too smart for the rest of us who actually have some understanding of history and logic. WOW! We on this side or the aisle might even take human nature into account when we come to our conclusions!
What morons we are, eh? Just stupid shits, aren’t we?
You are making me gag, and have been doing so for quite a while now.
I know that you are smarter than all of humanity in the whole history of the world, but I have a problem with such unrestrained empty-headed egos….
I can’t wait for your “perfect society” – backed by the sword, of course, because it won’t work any other way. After all, we are just a bunch of ants in an anthill, right?
As Gray says – “Go fuck yourself”. You are a perfect example of the Darwin Principal, and it is only a matter of time until it catches up with you.
And so is/are the rest of you leftards, lost in a pre-school daze.

Still chuckling over “Mrs. Hopeyknickers”.
That is funny.
Barack ain’t doin’ nothin’ I wouldn’t do for my Weezie! You honkies are all the same.
Apparently, Cleo typed that masterpiece right before he passed out in a drunken stupor.
Damn, B Moe, I started watching those Mother’s Finest vids and had to click ’em all. They were great! A hopelessly midwestern high schooler at the time, I had never heard of them. Where were they from?
Atlanta. My freshman year in college Wild Cherry had just had a hit with Play that Funky Music and got hired to play the homecoming concert, Mother’s Finest, who none of us had heard of, was the opener. They blew the roof off the place, and Wild Cherry… well… let’s just say there was a reason they were one hit wonders. It was ugly.
#83: They are still the shit (though the outfits are hilarious). I remember my brother playing them when I was little. “Another Mother Further” is one of the finest albums ever made. I can rock “Baby Love” on karioke after a few cocktails (okay well at least I think I am rocking it).
