1. The fat "mamy" stereotype
2. The ghetto girl
3. The aggressive emasculating harpy
4. The freaky slut
She is a stylish, educated, intelligent (the two do not always go together)and simply fab! I heart her because the media is celebrating a woman I and other like me can actually relate to.
Speech over. Continue with the love fest.

But, re: Jake Tapper, the reporter wrote the thing? Ok, I understand that it's in his bloggier section of the website, but dude. Do not refer to the President of France as "Sarko." Are you writing headlines for the Sun in your off hours? Also, if you're going to give one person an honorific ("Mr. Obama"), everybody gets one. Sheesh. (I would have totally let the honorific thing slide, if he hadn't said "Sarko." I mean: "Sarko"?!)

"Nothing but a trophy wife"
a bit harsh much?
From the little I have seen she has made quite a point of being more than an ornament on her husbands arm. And what she wears is of no consequence to most people regarding her worth as a woman.

"She is just a trophy wife" sounds much more like an opinion. You are also entitled to your opinion. You may want to take a look, however, at how you voiced it. Without ever meeting this woman you have reduced her to JUST a trophy wife. You have stripped her of all personhod other than what she lends to her husband. That is a pretty nasty comment to make just because you don't like her choice of attire. But hey, that is just my opinion.
Signed,
A woman who has been referenced as a trophy wife. (Maybe I should have worn more "dangerous" clothes.

I noticed for the first time on the film that right after the bump he completely SLAPS her ass. I think it is funny that no one mentioned that but found their fist bump "terroristy"
04/03/09
yes i remember that azz slap
some people did mention it
some complained Obama was being sexist
but i really didn't see the harm
he prob slaps her bum all the time
she prob doesn't mind LOL

Oh, the ass slap didn't bother me at all. I thought it was kind of sweet, especially following the fist bump and thumbs up. The whole exchange seemed genuine and loving. I just thought it was interesting that the fist bump got so much more press than the ass slap.

Please Santa, all I want for Easter is for the Republicans to split their power base. I've been a very good girl.

Seriously, though, am I the only one who wants to retire at a decent age? Of course, economic circumstances might prevent that, but I definitely have plans to travel, garden, read, and whatnot.

I, too, want to retire at a decent age. Actually, I could retire right now and go take cooking classes in Italy and be happy and I'm not 40 yet. My idea of retirement is not sitting in the Senate chambers listening to John Boehner try to convince people a budget without actual numbers is a budget.

Hey Lady!!!!

The Labor Department is putting out its March jobs report, which is expected to be somewhat dismal. So it might be a choppy trading session, depending on how the markets take the news.
So, a bunch of jobs are lost, which means that businesses aren't growing. If businesses aren't growing, the markets think "Oh, damn, maybe I better not invest in that sector anymore" and sell their ownership in the businesses, in search of something more profitable. Which means the businesses lose capital that could be used to expand and HIRE MOAR PEOPLE.
SOMEBODY STOP THIS CRAZY RIDE, I WANT OFF.

The look on his face still looks like a giddy kid on Christmas morning, who can't believe the present he got. It's kinda endearing.
