She stood out like a booger on a Van Gogh.
(I'm starting to think this should be its own thread)
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.

Before first lady Michelle Obama set off for this Danish capital to lead the charge for Chicago's valiant -- but ultimately unsuccessful -- bid for the 2016 Olympics, she joked that the last-minute lobbying effort would be "a battle." "We're going to win," Obama said. "Take no prisoners."
At a G-20 dinner in Pittsburgh, she teased Brazil's first lady, Marisa Leticia da Silva, that when the time came for the last-ditch arguments for the Olympic and Paralympic Games coming to Chicago -- over competitors Rio de Janeiro, Tokyo and Madrid -- the "gloves are off."
Back in September, that all was just good-natured exaggeration -- high-level, lighthearted trash talk. But when Obama took the microphone Friday morning in front of more than 100 members of the International Olympic Committee, at a convention center here, she went straight for the emotional jugular. She did not try to sell the city of her birth based on the location of its sports venues, the logistics of transportation, amenities available for the athletes or even the long list of designer boutiques on the Magnificent Mile. She left all that -- including a discussion of Chicago's excellent shopping opportunities -- to the other members of the delegation who came with her to sell the city to the IOC.

I can’t stand any of those phony people!!!!
Be sure to read the “comments” to this piece. You will laugh your butt off!
Failure is a hard taskmaster.
Too bad that all of America is going to get its lesson when the 0bamas get theirs.
I agree, it was a very telling and somewhat entertaining event, although it's really about Obama himself and his inability to project his ego in a way that prompts results at any level.
Is that last side shot photo real.....
If so WOW. Now we know why we see all the attention payed to the arms.
Also, looks like that bottom lip/jaw jutt out.......
If this were a puppy born to a breeder, it wouldn’t be long for this world....
OMG NO!!! Please, NOT her!! She's an advertisement for perpetual male celebacy.
OMG!! It’s pregnant, ON THE WRONG SIDE.
She “shines like a diamond in a goat’s ass.”
I got one of those puppies...Border Collie found him at a shelter and had him for over 16yrs and was a great dog. He had an under bite.
Even though I posted the article, I didn’t read the comments until I read your tip. RIGHT ON!! They sound just like ours.
Have an underbite dog now for 4 years and looking forward to many more.
She was newborn when we visited, and the breeder was getting ready to deep six her.
Unfortunately I think many end up that way, when they could find a good home as yours/ours did.
It was Joe Btfsplk.
Pronounced just like it's spelled...

I was 3rd owner...first breeder, second...didn’t realize what comes with a Border Collie Puppy...I got him when he was 3 months old. He was a hand full for several years however we loved him and was a great dog.
“The first lady stood out like Hannibal Lecter at a serial killers’ convention”
My dad’s first name is Zbigniew (try pronouncing that one and the press doesn’t pronounce Brzezinski’s first name correctly)
The one that made her look like a Hershey’s Kiss?
Yes! I noticed that one specifically as well. Man, the Obamas are an embarassment — no doubt especially to a whole lot of black Americans with real class (fashion-wise and brain-wise), and call me a racist if you want, but most of the black Americans who’ve been my friends and acquaintances I’d describe as above-average classy in many ways, particularly in good manners and elegant dress; I attribute it to a strong church and Christian foundation. The Obamas are crude and vulgar, culturally speaking.
