Spirit Airlines pokes fun at Obama selfie controversy Spirit

Spirit Airlines is at it again, riffing off a current event for one of its promotional ads, this time using the Obama selfie flap to good advantage.
While in South Africa to pay tribute to Nelson Mandela at the official memorial service last Tuesday, President Barack Obama captured a moment with British Prime Minister David Cameron and Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt, seated near him in the stands at FNB Stadium.
Taking selfies is a new trend, thanks to improved cameras on smartphones these days. Oxford Dictionary even named "selfie" the international word of the year 2013. In Obama’s case, the selfie was controversial in part because it happened at a memorial service and because two photos of the incident that popped up online seemed to show Michelle Obama annoyed at her husband's actions.
bwahahahaha
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
That is because liberals have no sense of humor.
They don’t fly to the Philippines, but I’m gonn’a try to at least get as close as I can ... I want to use these folks.
Natan Scharansky has a chapter in his book explain why authoritarians and dictatorships cannot stand ridicule, and how it terrifies them.
Uh oh, hope this company’s tax returns are in order...
Instead of a “selfie”, Moooooooooochelle will soon give odumbo a “snuggie” and then watch that phony smile of his.
What a creep.
Just curious, is the blond dane getting ridiculed in her country?
Maybe a “Winnie Mandela” necklace.
Why they call themselves liberals is beyond me. They literally want to control every single decision you make. And while they are sitting around thinking up new ways to rule over you, they will deny that they are doing it.
They’ll almost certainly now lose a couple of routes and get notice of a 5-year forensic audit.
Can’t really say I blame the Kenyan. lol
...two photos of the incident that popped up online seemed to show Michelle Obama annoyed at her husband's actions.Oh yeah -- Michelle wasn't annoyed at all; the pictures just made it seem that she was.
For the 100th time in her adult life she is not proud of her hubby.
Protecting that meal ticket...
..a WHITE woman? .....a BLONDE WHITE WOMAN???!...
dontcha know. I wonder if Mush throws ashtrays?
The body of Nelson Mandela was not yet warm in his coffin....and, our POTUS Obama made a buffoon out of himself. The world is laughing at him and our nation....but.....MIchelle, the Obama wife, had “daggers” in her eyes that would do serious damage to her hubby, if released!!! What low life, that Obamabot cadre is!!!
I still cannot believe that we have a man named Barack Hussein Obama as a two-term President of these United States of America.
As to his bushwoman wife, she is not only completely undeserving of any media attention but exhibits a major disrespect of her husband's office almost every day.
I hope I live long enough to see these people gone.
It’s funny that the promotion is for a “one-way fare”.
