Oh, I agree with you. But I also think that people in power didn't ever imagined it'd go that bad (both his actions and the public reaction). (And in the case of the Cosby Show, I guess it gave so much revenue for decades, it doesn't really hurt them if it stops now.)
And part of the sexism in this society is that men…

With those toned arms of hers, Michelle would knock the shit out of her. Would pay to watch.

What I don't get is, how does she think people in bars dress?

This is a very polite and neutral expression. 13 year old me with acne, braces, and wild mood swings would not have been able to hold it together for a turkey pardon in front of the international media. Sasha and Malia will turn out just fine.

That's what I said too! I've seen girls dress less modestly for an 8AM college class....nothing wrong with the way they are dressed. What are they supposed to wear? A burka?

Is a loose fitting sweater and a plaid skirt with tights de rigueur for bar hopping? Either that staffer has never been to a bar or she has no idea how teens normally dress. They look totally appropriate to me (actually downright preppy). I wouldn't be shocked to see girls dressed like this in the evangelical…

strip clubs, most likely.

"I prayed for hours" is code for "I scrambled for support from my racist asshole buddies but even they side-eyed me and backed away slowly, so I finally got it through my thick skull that maybe this was a stupid idea and here is my insincere apology."

I really want to know what type of kinky bar she goes to that school girl dress is the norm.

"saying that after "hours of prayer," she realized that she was wrong."

By the end of the week. Bank on it.

Why is anyone even vaguely surprised that the far right wing GOP would go after Sasha and Malia? I am more surprised it took this long for them to find an excuse.

I live down the road aways from her boss, Fincher. He is a rich farmer whose kids go to a very very expensive private school, and he is a monumental dick who cuts food stamps even as he takes millions in farm bill welfare. Not at all surprised he would employ this woman.

If your instinct is to attack two teenage girls simply because their father has a 'D' after his name, you have no business being a communications director.

Good.

I saw the Obama girls during that ceremony and laughed my ass off - my girls would have been doing EXACTLY the same thing. Dad jokes are lame. Did they look bored of out their skull? Yes. I'm sure they were. Did they look like they wanted to be basically anywhere else? Yes. I'm sure they did. Were their skirts too…

Countdown to her getting her own show on Fox News starts now.

Her comments about the girls were immature and tacky, but her comments about the President and First Lady were even worse. They don't respect the nation? They're bad role models? What an idiot.

I emailed her and told her what I thought of publicly attacking someone else's kids in order to take a swipe at their parents. I was polite. Ish. I have never done that before, and I know the likelihood that she saw it are next to nothing. I don't give a shit. :)

The Lord helps those who help themselves to not be fucking stupid.
