I’ve seen a lot of “we have to leave the daughters alone” stuff here on FR over the years. A lot of posts about the horrible Bush girls, some on Webb’s daughter, and now the two Obama girls. Yet, invariably someone pipes up about how they should be “off target” and “off the table”, etc. We shouldn’t be that way, and all that.
The arguments go like “well, they can’t help it if their father is so-and-so” -— “they’re innocent.”
Well, there has also been a great deal posted here about blacks’ and liberals’ great protestations over “white privilege” and how we might not be directly responsible, but we receive the benefits.....blah, blah, blah...... and therefore have to pay up somehow, either through ridicule or some other way.
I submit the two girls are beneficiaries of the same kind of gain that we white privilegers are. Round the clock protection, fabulous taxpayer funded exotic locations, the best of schools, the best of futures..... to me it’s no different - and they should be fair game for comment, in my opinion.
No one can argue with that reasoning! Good on ya!
