It's disappointing, but that's the state of things.

I am, however, EXTREMELY offended by people who use degrading names for the First Lady. (Moooo-shell, Sasquatch, etc). Absolutely despicable.
Why would YOU be offended? Ive lived on this earth for 32 years, and NOT ONCE have I ever been OFFENDED by anything or anyone. Libs like to be offended all the time.

The first lady is a real piece of work. Screw her. She has no business butting in my life, kids life, trying to spread her gospel about whats good for me and whats not.




For all those that think not liking another race is raciest, think again. Look up the word. Its a word that is so overused it doesn't even have merit anymore.

Obama is just a fool who's in the spot of a president. He is not a leader, remember, Valerie Jarrett said so. He's a ruler. And that, makes him not a president. Mitt may be no picnic either, but i assure you all that think obama is doing good will surely regret it down the road. I promise that.

I'm a redneck and I don't consider myself a racist. It's very intolerant to generalize people that way just because they're different from you.

Not only am I going to continue insulting Obama but I am going to BOOOOOO him at Mitt Romney's inauguration just as loudly as his supporters booed Dubya on 1/20/2009 - that was one of the most shameful acts in American history ... but hey, what goes around comes around.

Wow. You haven't?

Wow.

That's how it happens, folks. Slowly and insidiously. And the people stumble around in a daze not knowing it's happening.

It's called being a decent person. If you don't get why I find it offensive then there's really not much point in trying to convince you.

Enjoy the bile, don't let it eat you up too quick.

The least one can do is respect his title and realize that he is our President and should be respected as such. He is President Obama, not Obummer or Obozo.

Can you point me to the post you made that made such an objection when Bush was in office? If you had, then you are consistent and I can respect your comment. If you didn't do such when Bush was in office, well... I think it is quite obvious to the issue here.

Yet many others did and I can't seem to find a post from you similar to this when they were calling Bush a murderer, Nazi, etc... and calling for him to be killed.

So... maybe you can understand why we see your sudden response as EXTREMELY biased? Maybe?

What a racist thing to say! We comment on his policies, his comments, and his directions and you bring up race? Do you have an issue with race? Why is color such an issue with you? Are you a racist? Why do you hate the color of someone so much? I mean, their color is irrelevant. Someone doesn't do something because of their color, it is simply a pigmentation of their skin, it means nothing, their actions and words are the means to which they are evaluated, but here you are bringing up the color of their skin. Shame on you for being such a hateful racist!

That's what ALL first ladies do. This is where it's obviously racist when people complain about Michelle Obama talking about nutrition or literacy or something...I never heard Democrats saying that Laura Bush was evil for wanting to help education. The names that people call the First Lady are despicable and are OBVIOUSLY dripping with racism.

People didn't call Jackie-O (well, Jacqueline Kennedy back then) Hacky-Kennedy or something like that...so why are they saying stuff like that about Mrs. Obama?

Germany never saw Hitler coming, either.. Not a lot of difference, obama is evil and dangerous. He must be voted out if this nation is to survive...
