Complete Headline: When GOP staffer put Obama children ‘at a bar,’ it continued American tradition of trashing black females’ morality
In keeping with the Christian theme of her self-serving apology, Elizabeth Lauten has blessedly resigned from her post as the communications director for Rep. Stephen Lee Fincher (R-Tenn.). She had said prayer showed her the error of her ways, though one would think she would not need a higher power to tell her that trashing Malia and Sasha Obama for dress and demeanor at a turkey pardoning was not the best idea.
But tucked into the usual partisan sniping of her original Facebook comments and expected swipes at President Obama and Michelle Obama through their children was something deeply disturbing and unsettling. Her rant against the girls read, “Dress like you deserve respect, not a spot at the bar.” Let that sink in. She placed two children ages 13 and 16 in a bar, a very adult setting – a place where you can drink, flirt and, in some cities, smoke.
That’s not frivolous, but insidious. And it’s nothing new. Lauten’s mind traveled back to a disgusting place and time, when black women were disrespected, denied a spot on the pedestal of virtue white women occupied. Those views – apparently alive and well – excused the abuse and disregard of human beings judged not worthy of respect or consideration by people who prayed as hard as Lauten says she does.

It is insidious and racist for you Freepers to call the Royals a bunch of slobs ... because when you do, you are disrespecting them and denying them a spot on the pedestal of virtue that white women occupy ... and you are excusing the abuse and disregard of human beings you judge not worthy of respect or consideration by people who pray as hard as you do ... so there!
unbelievable! Everything, I mean, Everything is tainted by racism. This has caused them to jump the shark! I can’t take anything they say seriously anymore.
We’re racist and we have no right to criticize Obama’s daughters.
But blacks are free to trash whites.
We have a double standard in this country.
You signed up in 2006 just to post this????
(lol)
Jim doesn’t like us to call moochelle ugly so I assume it also applies to the first brats...
These hypocritical b*****ds defend the trailer trash in the Spite House after ignoring the left’s sleazy attacks on the Palins!
Give me a break.
I’ll be happy when we have a so-called first family that doesn’t look and sound like it thinks its living in Section 8 housing!
Now I suppose I’ll get hate mail from DECENT and HONEST Section 8 residents who deeply resent the comparison.
And I was prepared for this way back in November, 2008 when MOOCHELLE showed up between those idiotic Greek columns looking like a Black Widow and...
I’d better stop there!
Gee....wonder where that 70% illegitimate birth rate comes from?
Funny, I said that and much more to my teenage daughter, I told her she will not dress like a Harlot.With that being said, maybe this moron should drive around the inner-city public schools and see how HARLOT’S Dress. Or go to the White House
Well those two girls are dressed with Mooch’s motherly guidance so what can you say? Its not their fault that they have no role model to look to for dressing to their social station in life. So they emulate the Hood look.
That would be nice.
Funny part is these elitist liberals—whether black or white—are so clueles about normal black culture that they don’t realize most black people would criticize Malia and Sasha for the same reasons.
Yes—at least that much respect is due……...
Well those two girls are dressed with Mooch’s motherly guidance so what can you say?
Absolutely nothing ... cause if I did speak out truthfully, I would be banned from this forum for life!
not morality just there sense of place and appropriate attire
Ex-GOP staffer is lacking in common sense. As a result, the race baiters have fresh meat.
We are not allowed to criticize blacks because due to the soft bigotry of the left they are considered weak minded, lesser creatures, who cannot handle honest remarks about anything they do.
that which does not exist can not be trashed
So what was the motivation behind the much, much worse trashing of the G. W. Bush daughters and the disgusting things the lefties said about Sarah Palin’s daughters?
“And I was prepared for this way back in November, 2008 when MOOCHELLE showed up between those idiotic Greek columns looking like a Black Widow and...”
The instant I saw those pretentious styrofoam Greek columns, I knew we were in serious trouble. As classy as those Ben-Hur chariot blades on the hubs of ghetto-mobiles. Talk about stereotypes!
