Lady M is in the headlines again today: enough of the fashion icon, entertainer, (“The Evolution of Mom Dancing”) cover girl. Lady M is getting serious. Rumors abound that she is getting pressure to run for the Senate in 2016. Butt trust me, Senate? I don’t think so. She’s way more serious than that: there’s going to be an opening in the Big White that year, if I’m not mistaken.
So maybe that’s why we decided to go to church as a family yesterday, once the Wee Wons returned to the nest after completing their Spring Break East and Spring Break West.
And possibly that explains our frugal choice of recycled Prabal Gurung (first seen here with little Jason Woo as Lady M reluctantly turns her infamous Historic First Inaugural gown over to the curators at the Smithsonian):
Butt we’ve never seen the lovely matching coat until yesterday!
Even with the lovely coat it still looks like something left over from the Gulf Spill Review (which, as you’ll recall, caused Big Guy to loose sleep, butt not a single round of golf. Butt I digress.) If you want to know whether Lady M is “getting serious” in her second historic term as FLOTUS, check out the shoes: MATCHING! If that doesn’t practically scream “serious lady considering a run for the presidency” well, I’m not your MOTUS.
So all I can say, is keep your peepers open for further signs as the years drone on.
And speaking of peepers, today is the big Spring Sphere Roll for MO’s little peeps:
No wait, that looks like a reenactment of the old “Gladius Maximus” Lions vs. Christians games.
MO’s little peeps look more like this:
Like the circus it is, it get’s in your blood.
Anyway, I’ve got to run: there’s a lot of prep work involved in hosting 35,000 guests for a day of fun, games and healthy food. This year’s celebrity chefs include Food Network stars Anne Burrell and Ina Garten so I’ve got to go direct the delivery of all that low fat butter and healthy prosciutto.
You do know why Lady M invited Anne and Ina, right? No, not because their butts make hers look small – although that’s definitely a plus.
Nor is it their healthy food, although that’s a plus too:
or even their hair style preferences, spikes and bangs, both of which MO has tried:
It’s really because they’ve both served as beards too. Don’t tell anybody though, it’s an open secret.

Well, now I’ve really got to run; I see things have already gotten underway and I’m in charge of judging the Peep-o-Rama contest this year. Here are my two finalists...
(SNIP)
Too much like work!
No. We are not your hit farm.
Post it here.
Wookie skank beotch.
YES! Let her run! Won’t take long for everyone to see what a joke that is.
Here's the scenario ... the deal as prognosticated by my infallible Maine Tourist Shoppe Rock Crystal Candy Ball, Ring Mushroom Patterns on on rotten Birch tree trunks, and the absolutely never-fail Passamaquoddy/Nostradamus Moose Road-Kill Entrail Readings:
Here'sa deal: The Joey Plugs Brain problem is overdue for an explosion. What with the infected plugs and all, he knows this. He also knows that Barry's Beard has no chance without him. So, he runs. He wins! He Dies. Waddaguy!
Michelle is the President!
Of course it's not that simple. To make it look good, The Republicans will have to run a dynamic bobdolish player yet to be named who will claim "Hey, we can give you even more free stuff, and WTF, we are nicer people! Right?" Of course, the guy will look like Pat Boone, ca 1959. His VP running mate will be anyone but Palin, probably an execubutch like that Carly somebodyorother who screwed up in CA after screwing up her company. Also, it ain't gonna be that easy for the Democrats. They must decide, does Joey Plugs shuffle off the mortal coil before, or after the inauguration?
Read this and weep FReepers. We Passamaquoddy Shamans are never wrong, even though we have flopped at the casino gig.
Never Happen!
Too much like work!
You got it.
Besides, she prefers to simply dictate, not legislate.
“All that for a damned flag?”
A joke? Like Hillary’s senatorial campaign in 2000? People are underestimating the god-like adoration people have for the Obamas. If Michelle runs for Senator, she’ll have it, especially against a GOPe incumbent like Mark Kirk in IL.
Moochelle for prison in 2016.
Their fashions are timeless and have no boob-belts.
I’ll drink to that!!!
It it is merely a popularity contest wherein you vote for the person who you like and who will give you stuff.
Not only has this resulted in more and more idiotic, drooling-fool Senators like McCain, Lautenberg, Reid, etc. who literally have no idea what the hell they are voting on and are on every known geriatric mind-altering drug, + Viagra, but now, a rich guy can buy the election. You get Boxer and Feinstein, you get Collins and Axe-Face Snow, all of whose hubbies have made $100s of millions while the wives were saying and doing stupid crap in DC and getting their hair done. (Still not as much as Mr. Pelosi, though.)
The other thing the 17th does isfurther weaken and marginalize states' rights. State legislators, for all their faults, are closer to the sheeple than Congress and gave us the great senators of history, not this bunch of superannuated and very very crooked dingbats we have now.
Repeal the damn 17th Amendment. Ir was a mistake. Like Prohibition.
The only problem with that is that legislatures would have never selected a conservative Senator for the last 50 years. We have had a few conservative Senators elected. If state legislatures picked, we wouldn't have anyone to the left of Lincoln Chafeee, even in the most Republican-dominated states.
Nick, WTSHTF, State Legislators are replaced fast. The Republican States will put in Republicans because if they don't, they will not win their short term elections.
What the FFs did was put the Senate closer to popular control, not farther away, at the same time, tying them closer to the fortunes of their state.
The pendulum has swung too far in the federal direction. We need tough Governors to whom the "n" word (nullification) is in daily use.
I agree that that’s what the Founders wanted. But in today’s world, the only chance a conservative ever has to get in to office is by popular vote. Political people never want to put anything close to a conservative in office. Yes, Republican legislatures would pick Republican Senators, but people like Lincoln Chafee and Arnold Schwarzenegger. If we had legislatures that picked Senators, gay marriage would probably have been legal in all 50 states 15 years ago.
Hare-brained idea!
As a resident of Massachusetts, I am thankful for the opportunity to vote for a RINO senator two weeks from now in the special election to replace the French-looking senior senator. I consider myself superior to the Massholes of the Great and General Court in every way, including evaluation of senatorial candidates. I have zero respect for the Commonwealth's rights as a state. I care only about my rights as an American.
The polls are close. Should my congresscritter, Ed Malarkey, remain my critter (lose his Senate bid), it will be an embarrassment for Obama and the 'Rat party, even if a negligible victory for conservatism. Whatever. One more R in the Senate can't hurt.
The real way to fix the problems with popular election (for all offices, not just Senator) is to limit the franchise to tax payers. No welfare recipients! No EBTers! Filter out the 47%.
As soon as my Obamaphone recharges, you'll get an earful from me, Buster!
