Of course there’s lots of news out there. Hillary has challenged Ricky to arrest Julian Assange’s butt even while Gibbsy is telling us:
"We should never be afraid of one guy who plopped down $35 and bought a Web address…We're not scared of one guy with one keyboard and a laptop."
Perhaps he’s not familiar with the Richard Nixon presidency? Or Dan Rather’s demise?
And then there’s the news about the Big Bank Bailout going to bail out – European Banks!!!! Well, no wonder that first stimulus didn’t stimulate anything in our economy. Maybe we should check to see where all that money from the second stimulus went. I’m guessing Asia. That would explain why that Stimulus didn’t stimulate anything over here either.
Butt in bigger news: Lady M unveiled the Big White Winter Holiday Tree yesterday with a preview for military families who were invited over for cookies and crafts.
Tree top obliterated by giant crystal chandelier. Heads will roll. This is worse than the wikileaks.
Resplendent in a dress and matching jacket repurposed from last year’s Winter Holiday tree skirt on Granny R’s Singer, Lady M explained to the mostly Marine families assembled that:
'In the end, that spirit of kindness and generosity is really what the holiday season is all about,'
They’re also part of what Christmas is about. But only part.
'And it was the idea behind this year's theme, which is "Simple Gifts," because in the end, the greatest blessings of all are the ones that don't cost a thing,'
Maybe not a good idea to lecture Marines and other military families about gifts that “don’t cost a thing.” The gift they’ve given us costs dearly.
One of the "Simple Gifts" MO was expecting under her tree was passage of her No Fat Kids’ Behinds bill, officially known – without irony - as "Healthy, Hunger-free Kids Act," which breezed through the Senate on Monday.
Of course, this “simple gift” came with a $4.5 billion price tag. Which may be why the mean old grinchy R-words blocked The Great SEIU Food Bill in the House with some kind of a procedural maneuver that they learned from the Dems.
House Republicans have temporarily blocked legislation to feed school meals to thousands more hungry children. Republicans used a procedural maneuver Wednesday to try to amend the $4.5 billion bill, which would give more needy children the opportunity to eat free lunches at school and make those lunches healthier. First lady Michelle Obama has lobbied for the bill as part of her "Let's Move" campaign to combat childhood obesity.
Meanwhile, back at the Big White, Lady M took measures to combat childhood obesity and ensure "Healthy, Hunger-free Kids” herself.
MMMMMMMMMMM! Cookies!
From our House to your house: a little holiday bakin’.




Looks like she opted for the good hair and the party eyelashes..
ReplyDeleteDid she yank the sleeves in full public view (from 1st pic to the 2nd)?
ReplyDeleteMOTUS, do you think they heard us talking about the lack of ethnic diversity at the Big White parties? Because that little girl is definitely not from the 'hood.
ReplyDelete"The gift they’ve given us costs dearly."
ReplyDeleteOh, MOTUS! You made me cry! Beautifully put.
Then, I laughed at the "repurposed" dress snark!
Why is Mooch mimicking Caryl Meryl (she can't do Vanna White, lol!)??
ReplyDeleteAs long as the neckline of that dress is so high, could it be extended to cover her face? Then it would be perfect. Also, could that tree possibly look any less festive? And, why is she holding that cookie out in her extended hand as if she invented cookies? Doesn't she know Sarah Palin invented cookies :)
ReplyDeleteME-shell doesn't care about white kid's fat behinds....
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Barry will take her at her word and omit the bling from under the tree. Or is that message just for the little people?
ReplyDeleteGift ideas for MO that dont' cost a thing could make an interesting list:
1. Dress repurposed from the old drapes....but she already has several of those.
2. Sock to stuff in mouth.
3. Sweater knit from shaved dog hair. Dog hair knits up real nice if you don't mind the lingering odor.
Which is is? Are the kids in the US starving or are their behinds fat? Mo can't have it both ways butt seems to thinks we are too dumb to notice.
ReplyDeletePS: The dog would be cold for awhile, but one could knit him a coat from a few of the wighats layin' around the WH.
ReplyDelete4. Leg oil repurposed from used french fry oil.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what has become of all those sleeves she cut off so many of her cocktail dresses ?
ReplyDeletePerhaps they could be sewn into several coats of many colors for the homeless..just a thought..
Seriously, she could make a big dent in the deficit if one of the ladies in waiting{well it would take several of them, but anyway} would move that mountain of discarded costumes onto E Bay..The base would pay a fortune for them, and Moo could fund her Fat Kid program with the proceeds..It would be such a saintly and beautiful sacrifice.
Note to Self: email gibbsy..
I'm with you on the tree, margaret. Ugh...lee. Where are the icicles? The colored lights? The garland? Where are all the treasured ornaments...those dusty, motheaten ones that have passed through generations and the ones made years ago by the children that Mom can't bear to part with and without which no child's Christmas would be complete? Why is there so much tree showing? It should be covered with decorations.
ReplyDeleteI get the feeling there's really not much "merry" in this White House Christmas.
Do you realize that in none of those pictures is MO smiling? Dog knows what that grimace in the second one is but it's sure not a smile.
What a miserable person.
If Barry knows what's good for him he will not omit the bling. Hell hath no fury like a FLOTUS unadorned.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a Jack-o-lantern cookie --- probably left over from Halloween. Nothing to good for our military!
ReplyDeleteWhat is going on with that 'repurposed State Department drapery of a dress' in the second photo?
ReplyDeleteThis woman either desperately needs to go to finishing school, or just be 'finished' off, taking her own fat caboose alongwith her now-scarred faux hubby!
She is a total embarrassment to all women, especially mothers, in the world.
Soooo sick of the phoniness and lack of class!
Behold the cookie!
ReplyDeleteMOO refuses to attend charm school and instead plops her fat behind in bed with the remote and a bag of Cheetos while watching the Home Shopping Network for her "poise'" lessons.
"...the greatest blessings of all are the ones that don't cost a thing..."
ReplyDeletewhich is why MOO spent a half-million or more to vacation in Spain.
It did't cost her a thing; just the taxpayers.
What a hypocritical cow!
''...the greatest blessings of all are the ones that don't cost a thing..."
ReplyDeletewhich is why MOO spent a half-million or more on a vacation to Spain.
The First Grifter is a big, fat hypocrite!
I was wondering, too, if they were alert to the criticisms.
ReplyDeleteBut I decided that they couldn't help having white kids there, because it was military families. In other cases, they can pick schools that are almost all black to attend things.
And it was Easter, I believe it was, when they broke tradition by not allowing any children from private schools to attend the egg roll, or whatever it is they have.
With the exception, of course, of Michelle's own children.
Michelle, Obama, their children, their friends, their cohorts in Congress and their partners in crime are ALWAYS exempt from everything that applies to everyone else.
The whole "simple gifts" that "don't cost a thing" is supposed to make us feel guilty for not being happy with the economy. (Or with the economy they have planned for us in the future, which will be exponentially worse.)
ReplyDeleteOf course, none of this, as I said earlier, applies to Michelle or her family, who of course deserve the best of everything, in as many vacation locales as possible, wearing all the $2000 purses and $500 t-shirts her little heart desires.
Is that chandelier going to fall on her head? We can but hope.
ReplyDeleteFirst pic, she is wearing a jacket. Then she took the jacket off to honor the military families by displaying her guns.
ReplyDeleteCreeper, it's not a Christmas tree -- it's a Winter Holiday tree. So no colored lights, no angels, no Santas, toys, etc. "Simple gifts" doesn't have to mean "nothing on the tree," but it does when you are trying to cram Hanaukah, Christmas, Solstice, and trying to include the muslims even though they don't have a holiday at this time.
ReplyDeleteTree = Christmas
Blue = Hannaukah color
Gold = Either Solstice or $ for No Kids Fat Behinds
Seren, I think the wighats are suitable only for scrub rags. Strap a pair under your shoes and skate-scrub the floors! Merry Winter Important Day!
ReplyDeleteI think the fat kids are fat because they eat junk food. Their parents are so useless that the only place kids will get decent food is at school, but of course no one dares say that because parents vote and fat kids are "disproportionately" from black and latino families who are BO's electorial meat and drink.
ReplyDeleteThere are even summer "feeding programs" for kids.
I like that idea and think you should email the White House with it. It would be very interesting to see if they sent you a reply.
ReplyDeleteShe has such a hypocritical nerve! All the money she spent on her Spain vacay and shopping in India. Wait until she attends William and Kate's marriage in London. The dazzle is going to be blinding when MOo steps out internationally at a historic wedding.
ReplyDeleteI think MO may be one of those people who are like drunks -- they indulge and then right themselves and say with great conviction what the principles of sobriety are, and then they break out on a drunk a few days later. She's overweight, but talks about nutrition and exercise; she's a high maintenance person, but talks about simplicity; she cares for the poor, but wears $500 pieces of clothing to food banks; she's first mom in chief, but spends an awful of time far away from her kids doing things that reward her ego.
I wonder if she is confusing the nation with her personal needs -- "I eat too much of bad things and this nutritionist has just told me fat kids, etc. I will learn and teach about nutrition, and the nation and I will get healthy and stuff together, and I will thereby be a leader and get attention and praise instead of being a fat middle-aged woman with a job that pays no salary."
She's all flash and no substance.
If the recession is over, why Scarlett O'Bama is wearing the wall paper?
ReplyDeleteDroopy eyelids in first picture--MOO looks a little impaired to me. She probably needs a little something to get her through these appearances where she shares herself with her adoring subjects.
ReplyDeleteDirt on the First Grifter, Her Thighness of Bitterness:
ReplyDeletehttp://newsflavor.com/opinions/white-house-insider-pelosi-scandal-soros-and-racism/
A drunk can sober up, be it now and then, MO, no way.
ReplyDeleteLittle eye bakes cookies? Are you kidding?
Neither BO nor MO has ever worked a day in their lives. And it shows in every thing they fake, which happens to be everything they do.
"Faking it," can be nothing but a mind game, things you are making up and telling yourself, butt expecting everyone else to believe you. Witnessing a person do this reveals a stiff and uncertain demeanor, sometimes comic, sometimes very sad. What you don't see is their humanity.
Getting everything for nothing is the story of their lives.
Annona - brilliant! But you forgot one of the world's biggest holidays - Qwanza (however you spell it). I'll bet they celebrate that one at the Big House. ***Her perfectly toned arms are looking a bit chunky to me - anyone else seeing it?
ReplyDeleteLavish state dinner planned:
ReplyDeleteThe moochers spending, spending, spending:
http://hillbuzz.org/2010/12/02/another-state-dinner-for-the-first-couple-who-have-no-concept-whatsoever-of-appropriate-spending/
Moochers will host another lavish state dinner for China.
ReplyDeleteMooch, mooch, mooch.
http://hillbuzz.org/2010/12/02/another-state-dinner-for-the-first-couple-who-have-no-concept-whatsoever-of-appropriate-spending/
Moochers will host another lavish state dinner, this time for China.
ReplyDeleteMooch, mooch, mooch.
Waste, waste, waste.
http://hillbuzz.org/2010/12/02/another-state-dinner-for-the-first-couple-who-have-no-concept-whatsoever-of-appropriate-spending/
Michelle - love the term the "first grifters" - so totally sums up this pair. Dems have been known to be hypocrites - Kerry and Edwards come to mind. But these people are beyond belief - and taste and humility are out of the question. Indulge in everything they can while the party never ends. I would venture a wager that Laura Bush's outfits probably cost less than one of FFA's scarves or sneakers. There are so many suffering out there. Moochelle's response - let's go shopping, on vacation and throw elaborate parties. Good for me - not for thee.
ReplyDeleteI like the "coat of many colors" concept -- like when somebody gave me a bagful of old ties thinking I could work some crafty magic with them. Well, maybe not.
ReplyDeleteCharming R:
ReplyDeleteI am certain she wasn't faking, just as certain as I am the she baked those cookies in her very own converted 'Easy-Bake Oven', under a curlique fluorescent light bulb (gotta be GREEN, donchaknow?) which does not give off heat to kill bacteria in the required eggs...butt then, what does MOO know of Home Economics?
They both are playing the Mind Games with themselves...and, consequently, know nothing of the reality which comprises the citizens of the United States of America.
I could go on...butt, these Obamas cause much stress, which causes me more physical pain.
That's right ! How could I have forgotten that black separatist holiday begun by a nutjob who was later put in jail for physically torturing a couple of women.
ReplyDeleteI guess MO herself represents the Kwansethut mindset.
I agree, CCG...butt, there is this wonderful English word that neither the Obamas nor their minions could possibly understand:
ReplyDelete"COMEUPPANCE"
Barky tasted a bit of it on November 2nd, and again on the day after Thanksgiving, when he received an elbow in the mouth. He hasn't looked the same since, has he?
There might just have been a 10 watt bulb Incandescent, BTW--and thank you, Mr. Thomas Alva Edison), that flickered in his head 'for a bit, demonstrating to him that he is not "the Magnificent' NOR 'the Messiah'...butt, just a stupid guy making a stupid move in a stupid pick-up basketball game who gets elbowed and starts to bleed REAL BLOOD.
Nuthin' like real blood to show you you're only human, huh?
The only differentiation I can offer here, CCG, is that these two ar specifically CHICAGO grifters, making them much worse than what we know as 'regular' grifters.
Please believe me, I know people here in Chicago who dealt with Barky as he was beginning to run for the presidency. Their opinions of him are very low, and I truly wish even one of them had the guts to speak out.
Let's not forget the ginormous gingerbread-coated with white chocolate replica of the White House and statuette of Bo done in marzipan - clearly done to ensure there will be no obese children in the land, as Moochelle will demolish that baby herself. Such a First Lady we have who is willing to sacrifice her own health for the sake of the children.
ReplyDeleteGive credit to Newsbird. She came up with the term grifters, which is so apropos.
ReplyDeleteLaura Bush stated that they had to pay for their own meals.
ReplyDeleteLaura also was responsible for paying for her own clothing and hairstyling, including blow-drying.
I wonder how much MOO skirts these expenses by working the system.
MOO looks like an idiot "posing" with the cookie and the little girl looks cute because she is just being natural and genuine.
ReplyDeleteIt's a photo op for The MOO.
Even the presenters on the Home Shopping Network know better than to let the camera catch them with nasty looks and grimaces on their faces. You would think that after the iconic "glare" shot, MO would have been exceptionally sensitive to the presence of cameras and considered her expressions accordingly. Maybe not while staggering out to Air Force One with her shirt on backward, but certainly at a photo op like "cookie baking." There's just no excuse for photos like this.
ReplyDeleteYa think?
ReplyDelete(Does the kid look slightly terrified to anyone else?)
If I'm reading correctly there's a paper banner on the tree in the cookie pictures that says "The Christmas Gathering". How the heck did that slip thru!
ReplyDeleteA picture's worth a 1000 words!
ReplyDeleteShe also commented that on one of the quarterly visits with their CPA that it was mentioned how much was being spent. She then became more frugal with clothing, but mentioned ordering formal-ware from a designer house.
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine the signing ceremony when Obama signs the Fat Behinds Bill (just passed the house today so it is a done deal).
ReplyDeleteA lot of our money down the union thugs/educrats/agribusiness/community organizer rathole.
Mooch will be wearing her very best leg buttah and doubtless sleeveless for the occasion.(Though her arms don't look too good in these pics. Flabby and who has dimples in their arms?) Eyelashes too!
Look at that mouth, she's a contortionist. Normal people just don't look like that.
ReplyDeleteShe does look alarmed. As if she wants the stupid fat lady to shut up so she can enjoy her cookies.
ReplyDeleteI predict another SNL "have sex with me" skit coming up.
ReplyDeleteDaizie:
ReplyDeleteI, for one, most assuredly. could never have anything in common with this "Thang".
I was in eighth grade when I first met, and shook the hand of, John F. Kennedy.
I lived in Alexanadria, VA in spring of 1968--in particular when MLK was killed, and I had too drive into DC to pick up my husband. A treacherous time.
42 years later, here we sit, don't we?
Our so-called president has changed, since the other day when he got elbowed in the face, and recived one of the nicest FAT LIPS I have seen in years.
(Whisper now) Oh, BTW, he thought, being our Messiah, he was indestructible. Oops!
IMO, the sooner we find Barky is a sham, the better! We need his university standing (call it 'grades'), and we do soooooo need some clarification of where--AND IF--he was born.
Personnally, I feel his behavior so alien to the way of life of the average citizen of the US, I would consider him an ALIEN, possibly even an ILLEGAL ALIEN.
Just my thoughts--none of you has to agree.
MOO is an airhead re: nutrition. What is it you don't get yet?
ReplyDeleteShe is 'sent on these missions' by David Axelrod...to try and improve her hubby's acceptance in the world.
I don't buy it, and I hope and pray none of you do so.
Again I write...soooooo sick of the phoniness of this administration, right down to XXXtra fuzzy caterpillars MOO uses on her eyelids!
MOO will be dressed in her usual tranny style with heavy, false eyelashes, a tight gaudy dress, and wighat.
ReplyDeleteYeah, thought so too. She seems to be thinking, "can I leave now?"
ReplyDeleteIf nothing else, the O's have killed off most 'social justice' sympathy, white students are now crying bigotry to some college admissions offices, which was long overdue, imo.
ReplyDeleteThe little girl looks like she wishes someone would get that big monster away from her cookies!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe little girl looks like she wishes someone would get that big monster away from her cookies!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat will they do with her hair? (Oh, right. She doesn't shave.)
ReplyDeleteWhat will they do with her hair? (Oh, right. She doesn't shave.)
ReplyDeleteWhat will they do with her hair? (Oh, right. She doesn't shave.)
ReplyDeleteOn the final picture, the caption reads: "And see the topping on this cookie? That is made from ground-up children who wouldn't eat their vegetables."
ReplyDeleteHer look says, "Can you believe THAT's our First Lady? And I'm stuck here with the cameras on me next to her and I'm supposed to act all excited and stuff? Hoo, boy!"
ReplyDeleteAs we as voters who ditched us Nov. 2
ReplyDeleteOopsie, meant to say "As well as" not "as we"
ReplyDeleteI don't think any of us buy it. There are just various diagnoses for her insanity. I agree it's all a sham photo op. The nutrition stuff is also corrupt and is sending money to their buddies. I, too, am weary of how 'plastic' they are.
ReplyDeleteThat comes from talking out of both sides . . .
ReplyDeletemargaret: M00 has had a lot of practice being a mouth contortionist - it comes from too much talking out of both sides of her mouth!
ReplyDeleteI guess she's keeping it real and pretending to be a child -- is that a contradiction? I wonder that the White House allows such awful photos to be released.
ReplyDeleteCharming R, I thought you meant that MO was baking little eye cookies -- I wish I could show you the image that flashed through my mind. That's what comes of reading too fast.
ReplyDeleteHaHa! As I like to say -- Mooch reminds me of an ageing, unsuccessful female impersonator working on his "Diana Ross".
ReplyDeleteShe actually has no idea of what a normal, womanly woman is like. Any more than she understands what an "American" is.
Like Barack Obama, she was raised without religion, without patriotism, in a left-wing, Marxist hothouse. She has no idea what life is like. She is much less talented an impersonator than Obama, however.
I watched this White House event at politico. What's funny is that the audience -- Marine families who run the very successful "Toys for Tots" program of giving DC area kids toys -- are noticeably unenthusiastic when she starts speaking. She says (sarcastically) oh you're so disciplined! Come on!
No Michelle -- they are well-brought up kids of a type you rarely see -- and frankly I doubt if you have any fans among their parents. However, they know their duty and they do it.
Hang on, everybody. Two more years and we will have a real President and a real First Family.
MOOch wore a $2000 squined cardigan to the Chanukah bash tonight. Mrs O had the link but, of course, she didn't mention the link. Here's the link. http://www.farfetch.com/shopping/us-only/women/newin/item10055275.aspx?cur=USD&source=shopstyle Personally, I think that's outrageous but what do I know?
ReplyDeleteOprah just did her favorite things show so I decided to do one for MOO but as a Christmas tree:
Or perhaps the child has never seen the newly minted state endorsed "cookie? Mmmmmm. Christmas free, gluten free, nut free, fat free, fun free cookies topped w/ green veggie turds. Mmm Mmm Mmmm, Barack Hussein Obama! Poor child realizes that she'll be paying for that cookie, and all Moo's fat projects, for her entire life as a taxpayer. I'd be scared too.
ReplyDeleteIs that M00 or the Grinch? Can't tell which. Butt, either W0n wants to steal Christmas.
ReplyDeleteNasty looking cookies. Golly, I could make 10 dozen fine Christmas cookies for her soiree, for a price.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like Mr. Ed's mouth! The show tied fishing line to the horse's upper lip to get him to "talk"... anyone see any fishing line here??
ReplyDeleteYes, it's outrageous.
ReplyDeleteDaizie's right.
ReplyDeleteMoochelle really needs to get a handle on that face.
She really must be a sour person and has no clue about how to hide it. Butt then, she may not care how she presents herself, either.
Who the heck can come up with a CARDIGAN that costs $2000?
ReplyDeleteBut it IS pretty. And I like the Donna Karan coat from earlier in the day. Neither one is particularly well served by the Al Sharpton hairstyle, though.
Since she couldn't be bothered to wear red and/or green for the Christmas tree activities, I'm surprised she managed to wear blue for Hanukkah.
ReplyDeleteIsrael's now on record as hating 0's guts, so she has to work a little harder on a nicey-nicey photo op.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.politico.com/news/stories/1110/45471.html
While having come to the conclusion that Boo is a socialist dunce, and dangerous, I can't help but wonder if I would hate him a little less, if he didn't have such a horrid wife.
ReplyDelete<span>I can't help but wonder if I would hate him a little less, if he didn't have such a horrid wife.</span>
ReplyDeletenah, you'd probably hate him about the same
Here's the cardigan and I tweaked the Christmas tree a little.
ReplyDeleteIt will be interesting to see if the Os even get an invitation to the royal wedding.
ReplyDeleteThat was my first thought too. There's something not so little distasteful about people preaching the joys of frugality (a bad economy is good for you, really!) to the little people while they themselves are busy profligately highrollin' it with other people's money.
ReplyDeleteAlso:
'<span>Maybe not a good idea to lecture Marines and other military families about gifts that “don’t cost a thing.” The gift they’ve given us costs dearly.'</span>
Excellent point, MOTUS.
