CBS reporter: Obama’s campaign plane stinks

*snort*!!!

Classic!

[TN4Liberty]

Nicely done!

[DollyCali]

looks too thin to be her

and where are the CLOSE SS agents?

don’t think it is her

[jarofants]

I agree. No way that's her. Shes to privileged to do her own shopping. She would have one of her slaves shop for her.

[MinuteGal]

# 59....why does she remind me of Looter Guy in this photo?

Leni

[Deetes]

Why not Wal-Mart?

[kcvl]

“You bitch! How dare you pretend to be one of us little people.”

Lol...my sentiments exactly!

[MediaMole]

It was clearly a photo op, the photo was taken by one of AP’s regular White House photographers.

[tunedin]

I cringe when I consider the contrast. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1384127/Kate-Middleton-pushes-trolley-grocery-shopping-Waitrose.html

[matt04]

If this doesn’t get BHOs numbers up, will they resort to a WalMart to try to impress the bitter clingers?

[PzLdr]

TARGET: Home of the $500.00 sneaker.

[leapfrog0202]

Hadn’t seen that photo - thanks. At first glance at the face and hair, it doesn’t even look like her.

[leapfrog0202]

They didn’t recognize her with her toned arms covered,

NEW RULE ON FR!!!!!

Everytime a thread like this goes up with pics of....”her”.....Kate MUST be posted too.

Got it? ;)

[presently no screen name]

This is a photo op, IMO. You carry bags while pushing an empty cart? LOL! This coming from someone who opted for a ‘just because’ vacation -5 star hotel in Spain accompanied by kids and friends - 50? She/they are trying hard to erase that memory of voters.

[bushwon]

Looks like she bought about $25.00 worth of stuff in the 2 bags and spent probably $50,000 on Secret Service, transportation, etc. for a PHOTO OP :( Geez when will it stop?!?!?

[Brown Deer]

I’m surprised that the SS hasn’t arrested that photographer for posting photos of her surrounded by “targets”. ;-)

[chessplayer]

“Carrying at least two full bags while pushing an empty cart. That must be her all right.”

---

Yup. Too stupid to put them in the cart. And why isn`t she wearing her cap backwards or sideways? I though all “cool” people wear their caps backwards or sideways. At least she has the “wearing sunglasses inside or at night to look cool” routine correct. And the media would have us believe this, whatever it is, is classier than Jackie Kennedy. lol

[Ann Archy]

WHO took the Professional PICTURE of her??

[aruanan]

Carrying at least two full bags while pushing an empty cart. That must be her all right.

Geez, I carry my bags and push the cart from the checkout lane to where they keep the carts at the entrance. It's just being nice not to leave a cart standing in front of the checkout lane. I'd put the bags in the cart if I had too many to carry. Two is not too many to carry.

[Smokin' Joe]

There is something in the cart in the first image, not sure what. (why not just put it all in there?)

[Smokin' Joe]

I wonder if this whole farcical setup was why she had her cartwheeling sh*tf*t the other day?

Someone broke the news to her...

[Fresh Wind]

Hmmm. Look at all the red in that picture. That must attract her like **** attracts flies.

[Vor Lady]

Unbelievable! Thanks for the ping.

[Vor Lady]

She isn't the first first lady to try to go out unrecognized. Hillary Rodham Clinton went for walks wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses, too.

Because nothing says 'don't look at me' like wearing a ball cap and sunglasses inside a store. Who told all these celebs that wearing sunglasses inside would prevent people from noticing them? Maybe it works in whatever their normal 'shopping' venue is, (whole foods?) but out here in fly over country it screams I'm pretending to hide, better pay extra attention to me.

[lonestar]

She rearely has anything up her sleeve.

[chessplayer]

” She spent 30 to 40 minutes shopping, pushing her own

cart.”

---

PUSHED HER OWN CART??? Wow! That alone will keep the msm buzzing for a month.

[chessplayer]

“Michelle Obama was spotted shopping at Target Tursday by an Associated Press photographer who told CBS News he was tipped off that she would be there.”

---

There we go. Nothing but a photo-op.

[N. Theknow]

how can she shop in a store called Target?

How uncivil!

[TheOldLady]

ROFL!

Ready for tomorrow?

[NCC-1701]

So, who was it that took the pics? They don’t look like something one would take on a cellphone camera. They are too good for that. This was staged. Like everything those usurpers do. She must have alerted the press that she was going to Target otherwise there would have been no photographers there to capture the “event”. Simply put, pathetic.

[mojitojoe]

I know exactly what this was about and why they chose target. See that emblem on the front of the cart, they are hoping people take the bait so they can use it against the tea party. I guess they are so disappointed it didn’t work.

“It’s getting up _ you know we have this ritual in the morning. We get up and they want ten more minutes so they can come in my bed and if Dad isn’t there _ because he is too snore-y and stinky, they don’t want ever to get in the bed with him _ but we cuddle up and we talk. “

[COBOL2Java]

How much you want to bet as soon as she got out of the store she dumped her Target bags in the garbage?

[trisham]

Holy cow! I guess I am. :)

[TheOldLady]

I know! Tomorrow. Whew!

[trisham]

This month has flown by. I didn’t realize that it was tomorrow, but I did get some rest today, so I’m good. How are you?

[TheOldLady]

I’m well, thank you. We’ll be fine, I’m sure. See you on The Thread! Looking forward to it.

[trisham]

Me too. See you then!

[Yaelle]

Holy heck! Trying very hard not to LOL and wake up the baby! Those comments are absolutely hilarious! How could he win if this many Americans have the moochers figured out?! Yes!

[Albion Wilde]

Yeah, the hat and sunglasses would do it for anonymity! No one would pick up the first clue from the 15 big black vans caravan outside, and all those guys in suits/dark shades talking into their lapels.

LOL!!

[Palladin]

I like that idea. ;)

[opentalk]

Soros bets big on Target

Mission accomplished: (a) damage control for all of the negative publicity surrounding FLOTUS' $40,000 diamond bracelet, her crazy-expensive wardrobe choices, and $10 million in taxpayer-funded vacations over the last year; and (b) free advertising for Target, of which George Soros (coincidentally) owns $26 million in stock
