Why Was Michelle Obama At The Oscars? Posted by Jennifer Rubin
It was the average too-long, unfunny, over-produced Academy Awards TV show and then, after suffering through the 10-hour (well, it seemed like it) show, there was the first lady. In a ball gown. With military service personnel in dress uniform behind her.

She declared of the Best Picture nominees, They reminded us that we can overcome any obstacle if we dig deep enough and fight hard enough and find the courage within ourselves. Alas, none of the films nor her aides reminded her to mention the military, not those personnel behind her nor those serving overseas, an odd omission for the White House that nevertheless was pleased to have them arrayed behind her like, well, set decoration.
She did have time to give a crumb to the gay community, applauding the movies that inspire us no matter who we are or what we look like or who we love, adding that they are especially important for our young people. (Except when they contain gruesome violence, traffic in stereotypes or use gratuitous profanity, I guess.) Real heroes, such as our servicemen and servicewomen, inspire us, too, I would think.

Because the Obamas are just mystified how we ever lasted over 200 years before They ascended into power to save us.
Rush said it best today when he talked about the IRONY of dumbsh*t giving out the award for best picture. She gave the Oscar to a movie about THE SUCCESSFUL RESCUE OF EMBASSY WORKERS in Iran. Her dipsh*t husband didn’t even try to rescue the embassy workers in Benghazi. The Obamas are BIGTIME LOSERS. They only way they can win elections is by mudslinging, lies, smears and voter fraud.
Why is anyone asking?
Evita...and don’t doubt that Hollyweird will depict her as such when the time is right.
The comments to the article that i saw this morning show how well the communists celebratization of the presidency has worked. People are totally nuts. Next we’ll have Snoop Dog for potus.
Queen? Sorry, the queen was busy playing golf ...
To the headline: because she is a self important trollop.
God, I miss Laura Bush.
why?
because she has no class.
Why? ‘Cause she has to get her evil fat ass into everything...
All kidding aside, The Beast will run for POTUS and she will win because they will fix the election just like the last one! This country is so screwed!!
Because she thinks she matters and is narcissistic
I am not so sure.
were they “real”military personnel or hollyweird types. if real, were they ordered to go or did they volunter?
Oscars? Oscars? I didn’t know that! I, and my niece spent the weekend painting the backdrop for the play THE SOUND OF MUSIC at the POTEET THEATRE in OKC Oklahoma. Got done just in time to get out before the snow fell.
I would encourage everyone to go see it and our murals on the backdrop before the run ends and they are painted over. :-C
We did not have time for Oscars.
