While I think comparing the two is close to blasphemy, Abe wasn't always so honest. In Grad school I was lucky enough to be invited to sit in on a few Lincoln seminars given by a serious historian. One of Lincoln's court cases he won by getting a guilty as hell murderer off. He did it by discrediting the witness. The witness claimed he'd seen the shooter "under the light of the moon". Lincoln shoved an almanac under his nose and asked him to read the weather, which was "foggy with rain". Client acquitted, problem was, it was a two year old almanac. ;) So yeah, BO is no Lincoln, but they are both skinny lawyers fro Illinois.

And like every other socialist/liberal I have ever encountered she is a miserably unhappy bitch.
People like that can't enjoy anything, because nothing is perfect, the woods are ugly because some of the trees are crooked, the Mountains are to steep and the prairie is to flat.
They should just slit their wrists and quit bothering the rest of us.

She's a cold woman, that's for sure.  She can't help here ugliness, but look at a photo of her smiling.  Her eyes get puffy and she gets that big crease in her cheeks.  Her smiles all lower face, always the same, always.  Her eyes are never happy, her eyebrows are always pushed up from the sides.  She should get her money back on the lessons.  Hillary's got nothing on the Ice Queen.

Guys, leaving the politics completely aside, in which case the Hillary comparisons are on  target, if you find Michelle Obama unattractive you are eiither gay or blind. No she's not a 25 year old flavor of the month, but as a mature woman who has had two kids (not an anorexic, face lifted, silicone Barby doll), she's hot. Smart, poised, well dressed, accomplished, and a good mom. What more do you want? Again, I am ignoring politics here, but a man could do a whole lot worse than Michelle Obama.

The face is key to judging personality and hers says b!tch, in LARGE flaming letters.
leaving out her communist political leanings the fact that this daughter of a party ward boss has made a career out of riding the coattails of Valerie Jarret raises large questions about her integrity, as does her patient dumping scheme at UCMS, which nearly cost that facility their Medicare accreditation.

FQ, I got to say it, your feeble attempts at defending these 2 scum bags are not seen as being open minded, they are seen as pathetic denial .

Actually, I posted the pics as a comparison of the contrast in dressing styles when traveling on the Presidential jet........
I don't feel the Obamas respect the position as much as they see it a means to an end (Socialism).


The rest was just icing on the cake.

This has been my thought ever since they moved in.  I'm as relaxed as the next guy, but just as I will show respect for the President out of respect for the Office I expect him to act accordingly.  Does anyone else have the feeling that "casual Friday" is now a part of the oval office?  There is a time to let your hair down and be a family, but when you're jetting around on Air Force One you represent the people of the United States of America and "slumming it" isn't appropriate.

 I have to disagree with M58, If a scumbag occupies the Oval Office it becomes the den of a scum bag and that is no longer worthy of respect until a real American fumigates it and returns the positions honor.

Lincoln was a Republican
Obama is a socialist, communist, bottom-dwelling, scum-sucking, power-usurping, dictatorial piece of shit.
