A communications director for a GOP congressman has apologized for saying the first daughters weren’t showing “class” and were wearing clothes fit for a “spot at a bar” during this week’s turkey pardoning ceremony.

Great point!

I mentioned this a few days ago, even King Putt’s OWN supposed daughters are embarrassed to be seen with him.

That’s what you get when you force teens to do something they don’t want any part of. What else is new?

[stormer]

They are dressed completely appropriately for their ages and the circumstance. Stop digging.

Must’ve been a slow “news” day

[Daffynition]

A much more repulsive side-note to these usurpers in the white hut, would be to dig into the MIL Robinson....the grifter. AFAIK, she's still around WTH?

[Ted Grant]

It’s hard to imagine the upside to this staffer’s commentary.

“WHY WHY WHY do people apologize for telling the truth? WHY?”

Precisely. And on America’s “premier conservative site” .... three posts into the thread, the scolds show up.

When refer to bed wetters, I mean people who offer excuses for the discomforting behavior of others, because “it needs mitigation”. If an insult is worth throwing, have the gravitas to stand by it and deal with the blow back.

I also see your argument about the need for people of experience to be guiding the electocrats. However there is a world of difference between consultants and staffers. The latter are the people who are there because of patronage and nepotism. Unfortunately, the former are often chosen for the same reasons.

They are dressing to the hilt according to momma wookie. Have you seen some of the crap she wears?

If you think I was offering any kind of excuses for anyone, your comprehension is not accurate.

And in Washington, staffers BECOME consultants quite often during election cycles. I know what I’m talking about here.......absolutely. I am in this world.

Well Mears, it's a CEREMONIAL occasion, their mommy and their daddy knows there are cameras around to record the event (small though it is),... would it be too much for them to dress formally - as would you and I and the person who greets Punxsutawny Phil in February?

If I apologize for him will you send me a copy of your book???

[wardaddy]

Because they spoke about black people...

[wardaddy]

Its too dressed down I agree

But if it were regular going out clothes it looks like black preppie...with a slight edge

Actually ontap, I will do so simply for the pleasure of posting this! Freepmail me info. Lion Dan, still time to get in on this....:)

Why would the daughters have class? Their classless father lounges in the Oval office and puts his feet on the priceless furniture; he chews gum at functions with other heads of state. Their mama is classless and clueless in protocol with state dignitaries, especially Queen Elizabeth.

Krauthammer had a nice quote the other day.

“You’re betraying yourself, if you do not say what you think, honestly and bluntly.”

I think they are under-dressed for their father’s presentation. You can never be over-dressed. They just need to take more time in presenting themselves, even on the sidelines.

As a retired middle school teacher I can attest to the fact that they are dressed better than a lot of their peers. I hate to see freepers engaging in the same lame games the liberals play. It has been stated on this thread how the liberals treated the Palins and to a lesser extent the Bush twins. As I recall we were quite outraged that they would go after the Palin and Bush kids. I’m sure these two will grow up to be liberals...at that time they will be fair game as for now they are just kids and they look fine to be at a turkey pardoning!!!
