It was funny and I think you just did..

The thing you need to bare in mind is that everyone has an opinion. It is not your responsibility to police those opinions nor is it your responsibility to deem
which ones are right or wrong based on your personal belief system. If you want to live in a country like that move to China or Russia.

You are correct with the Maladroit statement as well.

The only thing that would make some of these "people" happy is to see the Obamas living in the projects and putting lumps of coal into their daughters stockings for Christmas. They aren't fooling anyone.

The price tag is whats new. I dont care where he goes or what he spends out of his pocket. But I do care about what it costs a bankrupt country whos people he keeps telling to tighten their belts.

So nothing good can come from this yet you carry on and attack the former first ladies in the same post?? LOL. I don't know about a fridge but old Barbara looked like she rose from the grave more than once that's for sure.

Another fallacy. The taxpayers are not financing their trips or shopping excursions.

I don't think Meechele and Obama footed the bill when they rented out the entire Taj Mahal hotel either.

I think that me who mock a woman's looks are beneath contempt and completely devoid of intellect, decency, and clearly have not had a mother that taught them respect. And I don't care if the woman they are mocking is the first lady or the clerk at the local market.
