Michelle Obama absent from 9/11 ceremony to be home with girls for 1st week of school. But...
WSBT ^

Posted on 09/11/2008 11:33:54 PM PDT by IDRATHERNOT

Conspiciously absent from September 11th memorial service, the Obama campaign claimed Michelle Obama was home with her children for the 1st week of school. However, on Sep. 10th, she spent most of the day at a "Working Mothers" roundtable in Fishers, Indiana (a 3.5 hour drive from Chicago).
FISHERS, Ind. — More evidence Indiana is in play this presidential election year: the Obama campaign focused on the state again Wednesday. This time it was Michelle Obama, right in the heart of Republican territory.

Maybe she was sick or something! I’m no fan of Michelle. But I don’t care whether she shows up or not.

My question would be Michelle if you and Obama think AMERICA is such a HATE filled, Racist, Rotten, and Horrible country why do you want to live and raise your children here?

Because without the willing Dems and the Chicago machine in a sane world he couldn’t be elected to run a small town in Alaska.

SARAH PALIN came to power through hard work, smarts, and perserverence OBAMA not a courrupt political orginization that runins any opponent you’ve had.

You have never even run against a real opponent. Or work for a positiion. Be smarter, tougher, and with more DETERMINATION.

For all the things you say She doesn’t have she knows she EARNED her terms in OFFICE. You coasted because of who you knew and your skin colur. How does that make you feel next to SARAH PALIN?

About an inch tall right! Your big Harvard diploma doesn’t impress in FLY over country like in the NE with all your BUDDIES. No sir we look for..

People who tell the truth, don’t read speached to us, but like SARAH give a speach and be ENTHUSIASTIC about your ideas.

How they can help people not offer a hand out. Most people I know would be embarresed to be you not knowing if you are good enough because you never were tested.

Sarah has and mabey for a short time but got herself elcted to two offices and pickd as a VP canidate.

Without your money, political contacts, and using the Race Card see if you could go to small town Alaska and get elected to an office.

I bet you couldn’t win a seat on an advisory board for the SewerCommision or some such position. No You have never gotten anything because you were the best person for the job.

Just right place right time right colour. That’s all. Try one of your speached with no camera effects, props, or teleprompter and see if you can come off half as well as SARAH.

You can’t you’re all gimicks and stunts kept going by your messiah myth helped by the willing media. You can’t do anything on your own can you sir?

I wonder how many aids he requires to cleam the HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS’s backside for him? This punk is not only inexperienced but helpless!

Without an entire cast and crew writers political hitmen a chicago political machine, Media you can’t come off as elequent or charismatic.

Crowds that are warmed up and people that faint on cue..GEE whiz MR Barry is this a Political Campaign or a hollywood movie? So do you have a stuntman, a double what does it take to make you look good.

Because SAHAH seems able to pull of professional and lady like with ease. What’s next some CGI effects the Green Sreen so you can appear to “Visit” the Troops you don’t like in IRAQ.

These men and women might not like you much either they don’t whine they get a job done completed then pull out of a war zone.

They don’t run scared first sign of trouble barry that’s the French. They WANT to do a good job because they know what they can do if given the chance..the surge.

They are warriors who are in the US MILITARY because they had determination. You have none of this.

I can’t think of one qualitly you have that even gives you the right to think about attempting to run for the OFFICE OF the PRESIDENCY.

You sir are not WORTHY to be the leader of the Free World. Sorry will give up in the face of any danger are you going to cry and get in the fetal position when PUtin playes rough? OR IRAN?

Things might very well get sticky in the next few years and some HARD TOUGH CHOICES have to be made your are leader. You have to come up with the ANSWER in a crisis make the final ok no speech writer or staffer can save you.

I don’t want to think about you trying to negotiate a truce with say RUSSIA while diarming the USA. Your ignorance will end up costing lives and I don’t want to do that.

Put American Citizens lives in danger or the MILITARY MEN AND WOMEN for your ego. So WHEN the curtain gets pulled back and we see the SCARED little man what are you going to say.

SARAH PALIN could make a tough decision she’s face many running a state. John McCain is so over qualified compared to you it’s embarresing. Life expeiernce achievments.

Yuo can only win with an October surprise style hit piece on McCain/Palin or both. If it hasn’t come out by now I don’t think the old hail mary play will work barry.

So just stop embarresing yourself and acting like you belong. You are not ready for a leadership position yet. Go get a couple years experince as the Manager of MCDonalds and that would be some improvement!!! At least you woud be in charge of something.. NO SALE!! LOL

Michelle Obama was "home"... can you say:

LIABILITY, I am sure you can. I guess their campaign has come to realize that Americans do not want angry, entitled, black anti-American women as their first lady.

Her claim was that she was staying home with the kids for their 1st week of school and could not attend 9/11 memorial serice.

...she found time to spend the day in Indiana at a campaign sponsored event the day before, 9/10.

Her priorities are evident and the kids were just an excuse.

.
point, now you’ll spoil todays agenda for Michelle, we’ll see

I agree with you. This article should also have mentioned the location and activities of Mr. Palin.

Or perhaps...just perhaps, she and the Obamanation feel with Jeremiah Wright that our chickens came home to roost on 9/11...and “GODD*MN AMERICA” is what she really wants to say at the 9/11 ceremonies.

Barack said he was in Illinois (for the state senate), and he was driving down Lakeshore Drive to Chicago on his way to a committee meeting. Someone from the area said it didn’t make sense because the state senate doesn’t convene in Chicago.

I have to disagree. Michelle is effectively running for First Lady. “Spouse of the VP” is not so close to the throne.

Michelle will be withdrawn from as many public exposure events as possible...

The reasons are:

1. Her personality comparison with either Mrs. McCain or Mrs. Palin is less than complimentary...

2. Her character comparison with either Mrs. McCain or Mrs. Palin is less than complimentary...

3. Her personal contributions to mainstream society, simply pale in comparison to those of Mrs. McCain and Mrs. Palin.

4. Her uncontrolled motor mouth......spewing anger bordering on hate and disloyalty to America —— don’t play well out of the black ghetto...

5. Apparently, her expensive education didn’t prepare her to chew gum, walk and talk at the same time, without getting her foot in her mouth.

6. She is totally devoid of the warmth and familiarity of Mrs. McCain and Mrs. Palin...... She comes across as an angry, bitter, self serving unpatriotic shrew with a chip on her shoulder and an “America Owes Me” attitude..

7. The media myth that Mrs. Obama is the Jackie “O” of this era -— were smoking funny cigarettes.....

8. Mrs. McCain’s adopted black child is blacker than either of the Obama children....... This must really agravate the black racist Obamas and their black racist supporters!

9. Both Mrs. McCain and Mrs. Palin earned THEIR fame by acts of service to society and accomplishments of their OWN — not their husband’s.

10. Oh Hell......you get the picture, right?

I don’t blame Michelle, seriously. My wife would do the same thing for our kids. But I am not sure that is the REAL story. The REAL story is that the Democrats are trying desperately to hide Michelle. Especially now with Palin in the race, you can’t help but compare the two, and Sarah CRUSHES her in terms of likability.
