He made a few as well, but of course, even GW Bush did too.

All things considered I'd say Harvard came off sounding considerably better than Yale.

And GW Bush did not make a few, he made a multitude

I agree. I found them to be quite charming as a couple. Far more chemistry than Cindy and John or the Bush clan. Bitter whiners will never have anything nice to say about the Obamas. I just take the opposite of everything they say to determine the truth.

Yes, after bushy blathered and blubbered his way through the last 8 years it's pretty ridiculous and desperate to pick on on the Obamas...both of whom are very well spoken....AND have something to say!!!!

Yep, people like drug addled Limberger and Big Head Sean are their idols.

Unfortunately, my younger brother buys into all that tripe, and not surprisingly, he treats women like dirt too.

I think that they are just masking some insecurities, like the troll on this thread who I have muted.

As far as overbearing goes, I find that in a lot of women (I'm a female), and I don't particularly care for that characteristic but if he's okay with it, so be it. She wasn't speaking; she was interrupting him and making fun of how he hated doing the dishes. I think he may have been a bit embarrassed.
You know that old adage about stones and glass houses?
