she got like 5-10 min of interview time. Thank god for DVRs. At least Biden's wife seems smarter than her husband.

I bet in 2013 Romney will drive the motorcoach down.

Wipe.

Joining Forces is an initiative created by the Obama Administration to help support our troops and their families. Michelle and Jill are the White House spokespeople.

Pretty classy for the NASCAR fans to denigrate their efforts, it sounds like you would have been right along side them.

They went to the World Series as well to promote this initiave....My guess is you will probably see them at the Superbowl too.

of all the real issues people can have with the current administration (i.e. Economy, Healthcare, Spending, etc.) to boo the 1st and 2nd ladies for standing up there to promote helping returning verterans and there families, while they are standing there w/ a wounded vet and his family, is pretty friggin lame IMHO.

Watch the video. The wounded vet got huge applause. The boos were reserved for Michelle, and they were richly deserved, in my opinion.

I'm a vet, and I would happily welcome any chance to boo, hiss, or otherwise heckle the first lady, and I'd sleep like a baby that night. She is utterly reprehensible. Her comment during the 2008 campaign, that Barack's nomination was "the first time in my adult life that I was proud of my country", tells you everything you need to know about her and her values. That comment is indefensible.

Personally, I'm hoping that in January 2013, she goes right back to not being proud of this country.

Laura Bush was 1st Lady for 8 years, I don't remember her getting boos in huge numbers, anywhere.

She did...at Obama's inauguration....and that was Friggin Lame too...

RIJIMMY · 11-21-2011, 01:58 PM

I think its lame she was booed. I never agree with her or her husband, but she was there for the right reasons and no one makes her do these things.
This petty crap is ruining america. we cant get anything done because everyone just wants the other side to fail. Look at this debt super-commission. You would be fired in my company if you went away for 3 months to solve a problem and came back with nothing. Inexcusable. Lou Dobbs had a great rant a few years back about americas lack of getting things done, I wish I could find it.

wow, you really come across as miserable (and petty also).

Calling a woman a "half beast" and other demeaning things says a lot about your values.

Totally agree. Each side would rather have the other side seem as failing rather than doing what is best for the country.

However, I divert all of my support to Newt, the most brilliant, skilled politician the planet has seen, since Churchill.

"as usual, it's OK for the lib to descend to the gutter but don't you dare point it out, mock or criticize or you are the bad guy....neat trick"-
No, I think anyone who refers to woman as "half beast" has a problem w/woman in general and is a scum bag whether they are lib or cons.

So show me where any "lib" here has called woman such demeaning names as Jim.

Paul - not a good battle to fight. "on here" may require some digging but as far as conservative women in the media, this is just from this week. BTW - Fishbone is my favorite band, but to play a song titlled Lyin A$$ Beyotch when Bachmann comes on stage is disgusting. AS Jim points out the libs will laugh it off but if it was on the other foot it would be a huge deal. Where are the feminists, uproar?

Fallon, band welcome Bachmann with pointed song
6:45 a.m. CST, November 23, 2011
NEW YORK— A Democratic congresswoman says NBC should apologize for its "insulting and inappropriate" treatment of Republican presidential contender Michele Bachmann when she appeared on Jimmy Fallon's late-night talk show.

As Bachmann was introduced on the show early Tuesday, house band The Roots played a snippet of a 1985 Fishbone song called "Lyin' Ass B----."

"No female politician -- and no woman -- should be subjected to sexist and offensive innuendo like she was last night," Lowey said.

The liberals were SO respectful of Sarah Palin in 2008. Barack Obama on Sarah Palin..."you can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig". Look at the photos that MSNBC uses of Bachman or Palin, please.

The "libs here" support the slaughter of 4,000 unborn babies a day. Let's assume half of those are women. Who cares more for them?

Paul, I can go on all day. How much time do you have?

PaulS · 11-23-2011, 10:46 AM

RIJ - I agree 100% w/you. Totally wrong.

My point is there are people on both sides who think nothing of insulting the other side. For the most part, it doesn't happen here. Jim seems to think it is appropriate.

Congress will continue to have 9% approval ratings until things change.

Paul, you called me a "scum bag", and 5 minutes later, you're saying that I'm the only one who thinks it's OK to insult people.

Paul, please get off your high horse. Maddow's actions provoked me into insulting her, and my actions provoked you into insulting me. From where I sit, you and I are both equally guilty of insulting those with whom we disagree, so I fail to see from where you assume the moral high ground on this issue.

Good luck responding to that.

Unbelievable.

No, I have no problem insulting you at all. Your constantly insulting ALL people who don't agree w/you. That is the difference. I would have thought you got that.

As always, a pathetic attempt to spin a topic that doesn't have even a remote relationship to abortion into "killing unborn babies."

You're really committed to mentioning that "Liberal = Baby Killer" any time a non-Conservative politician is mentioned. We get the point.

Didn't his hero Newt lie about 800 babies being left in dumpsters in DC?

Johnny, if a liberal accuses me of not caring about women, then I think it's pretty valid to point out that I am opposed to the slaughter of 2000 unborn girls a day, and to point out that most liberals support that.

If the shoe fits Johnny, if the shoe fits...

I dont want to blame everything on "O" but I think his attitude has made it worse.

One thing I can say for Romney is he is a mature and moral person and believe he would bring dignity back to the office.
