Were the turkeys Obama pardoned even born in America? I don't recall seeing any records released about that. Why is the President pardoning foreign born turkeys?

Why couldn't they be more like the Bush girls and get busted for underage drinking?!
 
The ones calling the girls "hood rats" and worse.

These people suck.
At a minimum. Even I have limits. And the young ladies clearly are nothing remotely deserving that crap. Their father (as President is a fair target that way. The family isn't. But, then, nobody has accused republickers of being honorable or fair for roughly 35 years. Quite the reverse - with very good reason.:(:mad::jaw-dropp

And there is that lovely nude pick of Jenna iirc at the beach. I am avoiding a punning use of her last name, but I did not label the photo so not my fault.....

Oddly, I did not see any news sources picking that one up....... (well, regular news sources).
 
I read about this on the BBC website and just thought "Stay classy GOP staffer".

I'll accept that this doesn't represent the views of the GOP, just a single low-level minion but the accompanying lack of respect for the President is much more widespread.


edited to add.....

Judson Phillips is ticked off and thinks that having to apologise is yet another indication that the U.S. has been neutered:

The real problem here is that Ms. Lauten apologized. Lawyers like to say,
“The truth is an absolute defense.” She was right. Someone should have told the Obama children that if they are going to be a part of a public ceremony, they do not sit there and make faces.

In her original post, she wrote, “Dress like you deserve respect.” That is sound advice that should be given to any teenager. The smart money is on the Obama daughters never having heard those words.

Really ? Maybe that exact phrase may not have been used (it smacks of condescension) but I'm pretty sure that the Obamas have given plenty of guidance over the years and I wouldn't be shocked to find that they were pretty decent parents.

There has been a bit of a flap recently about the turkey pardon photo op last week.

A GOP representative staffer posted a critical attack on the way that the two girls were dressed.

she later issued a standard notpology

but the nut jobs have picked it up and are running with it.

what is with these people?

She should be fired.
What is it with these people? Nutjobs are nutjobs, partisans are partisans.
 
The staffer has resigned. She can now just go back to being another anonymous member of the GOP base, where such disgusting comments are commonplace, as evidenced by the comments at the link.
 
The comment section is strange, but it is on Fox. Do one sided is to be expected.
 
He allowed his precious daughters to wear that? With this, and him brewing beer in the Whitehouse, I'm starting to think he secretly isn't a Secret Muslim.
