Obama the first Gay President

[mox 298]

No idea why anyone feels it's their right to comment upon some else's choice of bride/husband in terms of superficiality (height, weight, looks). Idiotic, banal and a complete waste of time.

Um........Madame.........it IS our right!

it's called The right to Freedom of Speech. It's also known as humor. It's also what makes this country great

Oh ffs, not the "Freedom of Speech" card. Dude, your freedom of speech does not extend to VJ.

And if people are going to claim "humor," then at least be funny. Saying Michelle Obama walks like a basketball player and might even be a dude stops being funny at about the 4th grade level.

Dude at least be accurate with who u're attadcking. it wasn't me that say ANYTHING about Michelle Obana !

you're right, my freedom of speech doesn't extend to VJ, my FREEDOM OF THE PRESS DOES!

you guys are gonna pop a vein soon lol...........

See my bolded quote. I did not attribute the attacks to you.

And no, you have no freedom of the press because you are not the press, and even if you were, this isn't a newspaper, and even if it was a newspaper, it's not your newspaper.

If you think suggesting Michele is manly is funny, go right ahead and laugh all you like. I can't change what you find funny but I can comment on how it appears to me, puerile. Perhaps to you fat people are funny? People that wear glasses? People with red hair? People who lisp? Laughing at unchangeable physical attributes is just shallow.

I am quite offended by your reckless attempt at humor. Michelle Obama is beautiful and classy. I'm glad she's our new First Lady. It seems her husband thinks she's the most beautiful woman in the world, and that's all that matters, right? Your opinion is just that--an opinion.

Our first ladies have not been raging beauties since Jacki O, and that was only because of the wrinkled fossil she ended up with. Now, beauty has nothing to really do with anything, and often the really attractive women get pegged as shallow.

However, Michelle seems to be half a head taller than her husband. Maybe it's the heels. Still, she walks like an NBA player. Perhaps a man in drag? Another Janet Reno body type?

Is it too early to comment? After all, if the new President fails, then America is in trouble, not just those that voted for him. Maybe I am just having a jaded moment, looking for late night comedy possibilities.

Now that the smoke has cleared, and just a few embers remain, I have comment on comments about my comments, and the assumptions that were made.

We cannot go around like we are walking on egg shells, just because Obama is now our President, the President of our country. Is the prospect so fragile to his supporters, that a few comments about his wife's fashion sense would bring down the Obama Administration?

People! His party is the majority party for at least the next two years! Have a little faith in the man, and in America!

And whether I am conservative, or liberal, or progressive should not matter. Who I voted for was the man I thought was the best choice for America, and whether, or not, my choice won, it would not stop me from poking away!

Try again, laughing at unchangeable physical characteristics is not political satire.

Some say this thread is harmless humor, some say it's offensive. I'm pretty much in the middle... I didn't think it was very funny & it was kind of tasteless.

Pretty much the case. My middle ground is that its lame.

I am sure there are many things about Obama that can legitimately be satarised - and in such a way as to make people chuckle. The 'he's gay because his wife is 'butch' angle is just cheap and feeble. That's all there is.

Hmm while totally ridiculous kind of reminds me of the personal Bush jokes.

I don't recall any Bush jokes here that were like this one... sure there was a lot of resentment over his decisions (me included) but this type of Obama thread comes across as a really poor attempt at humor & perhaps some sour grapes.

Which physical traits of Bush were lampooned then? His ability to ####### up the English language?

Its not Saturday Night Live material, that's for sure...

How soon we forget the Palin cracks on her appearance and family. Of course, McCain took a beating (again) as old guy.

Mrs. Obama appearance isn't that important. Her comments during the campaign guaranteed she'd get muzzled until after election day. I'm sure she'll get in hot water again.
