Big butt needs a few more strings of glass trading beads.
It's a shame that you hate the presidential family so much - which country are you going to defect to?
I think it was a gift from Mr. "T".... : p
Obamas are smart and leading the US to the next generation. McCain would've brought it back to 1940 or 1970s. Never appoint a military person as President, because they are willing to start war, which was probably the case for McCain.

Good ole Obama has got us so deep in debt the next generation you talikng about him leading the USA into might not like him so much.
The President seem to love that big butt,not everyone likes a flat butt.
The debt will be handled. There is a debt comission happening planning to cut the deficit down. The McCain plan is increase the military by 50% and social security and medi* is down the toilet. Deficit will be cut. The current situation was tough because of all the bankruptcies of all the banks. If the banks went bankrupt there won't be institutions to create money. It is a tough time. Things are getting better, there won't be radical tax increases and there will be strong deficit action. It will take a 1 or 2 to begin this process until then this economy should heal to a better shape. US is debt ridden nation because it is rich and can handle the debt, but it needs to cut down the debt. There won't be socialism happening any time soon. In fact the whole world order is changing to Asia/China and things appear as though they are getting bad. US is not the sole leader anymore. It has to work together to make itself better. It wasn't the same US during the 1940-1980s that totally dominated the world in every area.
Michelle - China called, they want all their cheap plastic necklaces back (they're running low).
You can always tell a Teabagger by their lame jokes and inbred hatred....cant miss em
...and dont be fooled folks, it's never been about the economy, or healthcare, or taxes or policies and all those phony excuses....
In all my years, I have never see a classier president.
Obama/Biden 2012
bobs ur uncle--So appropriate that you should use Nelson Muntz as your avatar.Both pathetic thugs. Did your father go out for cigarettes and never return??
Look I'm no fan of Obama,not by a long shot,but for you to say that his wife has a big butt is REDICULOUS!The woman is by no means fat. If you people think she's fat you better get a pair of glasses cause your eye site is in the toilet.
Next time anyone wants wants to say anything about anybody's ass,take a long look in the mirror,I'm willing to bet your ass is 3 times her size!
Oh and I liked the Gown and the Beads to.
proamerica, !. You are not pro America in any sense of the word. 2. You are a small minded man who has nothing else to do than to try and shame a very classy First Lady. 3. You are a bigot and a self righteous and sanctimonious low life. 4. Even on the First Lady's worst day, she is still head and shoulders classier than you are on your best!!!!!
'' M O R O N I '' , '' T H E G R I N C H '' , O R '' S E N T T O R O A M '' ; think about what ya'll have to offer the united states of america , '' BEFORE YOU CRITICIZE YOUR COMMANDER IN CHEIF !!!!!!!!!!!
Well Gloria I know you are not a fan of Obama but I thought your post was pretty classy.
"Antiamerica,"
"Big butt?"
"Big butt?"
ROUND derrieres are classy and sexy.
Less fortunate ladies empty their bank accounts and run to plastic surgeons for "Derriere Implants."
Such women do so, so that they can be identified as a female.
Women with curves are BLESSED by nature.
These these beautiful ladies will not end up buying a plastic surgeons his 3rd or 4th yacht!
You need to redefine your "Awful Vision" of beauty.
friartuck1950,
Probably, proamerica is one of the worse-looking things on this planet.
It would take a scientist to scientifically and biologically identify him as being part of the "human species."
I am sure that none of us will catch him on a beach in the Summer.
Please excuse Mrs. Obama for being a middle-aged mother of two, and not a movie starlet, as was Barbara Bush, Hillary Clinton, Laura Bush and Pat Nixon.
I'd say that Michelle Obama is not a bad looking woman, if your eyes are not blurred by your ideology.
Michelle looks pissed off.
US and UK relationship is what is ruining the world. These two countries mess up the world with all their crying, fear mongering and apocalyptic talk. UK should remove its monarchy and become modern and stop their cry baby dependancy on the US. UK should grow up and US should distance itself from the "old world" and the dependent UK. UK is nothing without US. They couldn't send 200 troops to any place in the world in a reasonable time. Without radical change in UK, UK is down hill from now on and cry over to the US that they are being bullied. The world will be lead in Asia.
UK people are one of the most fear mongering, mellow, cry baby people in the planet because they have been abused by their monarchies for some 10 centuries that made them dependent backward looking and whining people. No offense. All the dukes, knights, medals, orders, commanders, princes, princesses, kings and queens are ruining UK back to the stone age.
aww.... someone took world history at community college.
Um dude, the UK isn't a "monarchy". The Queen is a ceremonial role and has NO political power whatsoever. lol
Everything else you said after that is absolute ignorance. The only thing I credit you is the fact that you can count up to 200.
Yeah it is "constitutional" monarchy and everything is "democratic" not. It is psychologically still a monarchy. There is a difference between real change and psychological aspect. People like to calm themselves by saying queen has no influence on me, but there is a big psychological influence. It is symbolic and psychological and that what affects people.
So you flunked world history and psychology??
What exactly did tom say that was incorrect? It was England that screwed up the Middle East. It was France and England together that screwed up Africa and east Asia.
And what dave? America just stood by and watched? Ever hear of the Shah of Iran?
Africa screwed up Africa and continues to do so.
you call them whiney then say no offense? sounds like american politics...
the brits have screwed up everywhere....BRITS OUT! ANYONE BUT obama IN NOVEMBER!
Correction!! Europeans who invaded the continent of Africa centuries ago actually messed up the coninent of Africa, and continue to do so; the indigenous people who were there, already, had much less to do with creating the 'Frankenstein Monster' of a proble that we have today. You have got to know your history. Example: Most Americans think that Africa is a country (unbelievable), and don't realize that it is a Continent, and consists of many dozens of independent countries.
@ Noel J. Albertson. England may not have any "real" political power but that symbolic Monarchy still owns a lot of real estate throughout this world, including some substantial financial institutions down on Wall Street and perhaps portions of that area in New York City; which can lead to other questions as to what is really going on.
It's not your country & you don't need to be rude.
Don't you just love the rainbow lights on the upper floor ?
Eugene Jones III- I can't speak for the rest of Americans but I have known Africa was a continent since I was 11 years old and Sarah Palin thinks it's a country. I am more qualified to be POTUS than that pathetic excuse for a public figure.
"Obama accidentially steps on first ladies dress"
It would be funny if her dress came off.
No it wouldn't, I would have to have therapy for years to get that sight out of my mind.
RAS, are you saying that you don't like naked women? Maybe you are a Kasey Kahne fan?
funny? i think it would be frightening! ANYONE BUT obama IN NOVEMBER!
Yeah, but it did not and she a Chicago raised black girl adored by millions and trying to do good things in this world. You, on the other hand, are here with rest of us responding to these geo-political events and patting ourselves on our backs thinking how clever we are in our response.
Heard on the radio this morning that celebrities who attended the dinner paid upwards of $500,000 and that the money is going into his re-election campaign fund. WHY is he allowed to do this and WHY aren't more people outraged??
I'm curious as to why we, the tax payers, are paying for a trip for the Prez and PM to see a NCAA game
Obama invited Cameron to put a false face that they like him. Cameron and Obama doesn't look face to face. Cameron is conservative, Obama is liberal. It is just a fake agreement because they are heads of state. If Cameron was American, he would be like New Gingrich or Rush Limbaugh. It is a false face to preserve the "tradition." It is a theatre and comedy people.
A "Conservative" Brit is like a left-leaning Democrat tom111 - absolutely nothing like the "Conservatives" of America. Cameron and Obama have much much much more in common politically than any of the Republican candidates.
Mike - David Cameron is total right wing nut. Without US and without the Liberal Democrat they are in coalition with, Cameron would close down immigration to 200 people a year, totally remove social security, close down schools, censor the internet in the UK and probably start a war. US is what balances the UK and the world because US is a liberal country. UK is in the mentality of the 1890s to 1920s with "King" James wearing 2 ton clothes, wearing swords, beards, and bunch of wires hanging from his jacket.
Linda, did you bitch as much when taxpayers paid for Bush to go to Greece and China for the Olympics?
C'mon now! The leaders need to be face to face at some point. How many White House states have there been throughout history. Why is this one so much different? Hmmm..., let me guess,, wait....., here it is: "We just don't want to see these black people in this position, ever". That what your issue is.
Linda, the same reason we paid for all of Reagan's trips to California and Bush's trips to Texas just to chop wood! And for the Bushes to spend 10 days in Beijing just so he could watch the Olympic games instead of staying home and watching them on TV while trying to stop the country's recession.
Next Question !
tom111 you have no clue about british politics whatsoever. Muppet
Who really wants to see the pictures?
Meanwhile, I am counting my change after I purchased a 39 cent Cup of Noodles for dinner tonight.
party like a barakstar
Do you think they discussed Obama's failed economic policies and Obama's games with the Unemployment Numbers.. In 2008 66.0% of the population above 16 were considered employable by the BLS. In 2009 the number was revised to 65.4% ( a difference of 2.1 million Americans) In 2010 it was revised to 64.7% ( a difference of an additional 2 million Americans) In 2011 it was revised AGAIN to 64.1% ( a difference of an additional 2 million Americans) The last 3 years have seen this number revised DOWN a total of 1.9%. This is more than all the revisions since 1982 COMBINED. The unemployment rate is NOT dropping...the administration is just NOT counting 6.1 million Americans as "employable"
Reuters) - The number of planned layoffs at U.S. firms surged in January to its highest level in four months as retailers and financial firms cut jobs, a report on Thursday showed.Employers announced 53,486 planned job cuts last month, up 28 percent from 41,785 in December, according to the report from consultants Challenger, Gray & Christmas, Inc.
January's job cuts were also up from the same time a year ago, gaining 38.9 percent from the 38,519 layoffs announced in January 2011.
From the Bureau of Labor Statistics web site, for those that want to find the REAL NUMBERS:
Labor Force (over 16 years of age) = 237,000,000
Of the Labor Force, those not working = 84,000,000
THE REAL UNEMPLOYMENT RATE = 35%
Great Pictures...I've been involved in fashion photography for the last 30 years. There hasn't been a first lady since Jackie that showed so much style..sorry for all the haters here. Get over it. You have another 4 years.
you must be kidding....she looks horrible
Francis, you must be gay.
A fullback in a Dior', or some such.
style? mrs. obama is disgusting..ANYONE BUT obama in NOVEMBER!
I see the Faux News drones are invading msnbc posts again.
I see that the old, old, old, Faux News, supposedly clever posts are still around. At the very least, get a new inane comment.
I was wondering what happen.
You've got to be kidding me? You like all those beads? Way overboard in my opinion. Like a teacher on Saturday--no class.
Is it just me or does the British PM's wifes eyes look 6 " too high in her skull. I am no fan of Obama's wife but her eye location looks normal, the British pm''s looks like a F/U store mannequin!
You surely exxagerate. They are no more than 5" out of whack. He has a forehead that looks like something from Star Trek: Next Generation. But that's what happens when you get generations of intensive inbreeding with so few true aristocrats. But that's one of the reason's we were so handily able to whip the Brits (twice) - Goerge II was very feeble-minded even by British standards.
I also wonder if either of them has even been outdoors. Maybe the gloomy weather.
I know you two are having fun just poking fun and you think you are being cute. I know you do not know enough to understand what clowns you are being, but please do not embarrass the rest of us with your laziness in not researching anything and misspelling everything, and not even understanding the topic you are spewing your trollish and stupid wasted words on.
Goerge II ???!!!
Why don't we try George III, of the Hanoverian Dynasty (not Saxe-Coburg-Gotha), known as "the farmer king"?
Are you really so uninformed that you do not know the difference between a Prime Minister and the Royals? Do you even know what Parliamentary Procedure is? Talk about out of whack! Its like having used car salesmen, drunk at the bar with about an 8th grade education choosing who will lead a nation. (Sighs with disappointment and shakes head.)
Don't forget, "spell check" is everywhere now, too.
WOW..lots of plastic beads on Michelle ....ruined the nice necklace of her dress. She looks huge compared to Obama.
She is huge compared to him - actually she is huge compared to anybody! I bet her shoe size is like a 14 or 15! I am waiting for all that make-up to come off and reveal "she" is a "he"!
she is a monster...yikes! ANYONE BUT obama iN NOVEMBER!
Wow a three way rant. Jealous much? Don't bother to deny it's obvious!
First impression of Michelle in the photos? She looks like she's wearing one of those traditional multi-layered beaded African neckclaces or those African brass rings that stretch a woman's neck -- except Michelle's necklace is made of gemstones.
Of course, she IS an American of African descent and she is beautiful and highly intelligent, but this particular necklace looks overblown. Michelle, put on your jewelery and then take half of it off. Always a smart and classy tip. And I'm looking forward to you and your husband spending another four years in the White House.
Wonderful - Two young and very smart men; both with young families leading us forward to make a better world...
Now back to the GOP primaries...
one elitist liberal socialist leading this country to ruin - now back to the people who will try to get us out of this mess
Sorry Sarah Palin would invite the the Queen over - Because that's the leader of England, don't cha know?
one elitist liberal socialist leading this country to ruin? If I remember it was Bush and the boys that pushed us to ruin. Good luck with Ricky or Mitt - its over for the Party of Reagan.
Reagan would have been horrified by these GOP idiots.
What does she have around her neck? It looks like it's making her head droop...and to the person that said she has the class of Jackie O.....give me a break....not even close....she has zero class...
No, you have zero class.
And raddave doesn't know class from azz.
Michelle - China called, they want all their cheap plastic necklaces back (they're running low).
I know! Are they not horrific?!?!?!? She looks like a three dollar a day whore on her day off!
@segdrib
She looks NOTHING like your mother...
Funny, I don't see the Marines or Sailors smiling. Well, not so funny. Semper Fi. Live it up, you have 8 more months before rotation.
Seems like someone is angry about the fact that only one of the two last Presidnet's had enough brains and cajones to get the job done on the terrorists. Oh, and it was the sailors that got Bin Laden not the Semper Fi crowd.
Bob in LG,
Right on Bob. :)
Gunny, you won't see them smile either. They are true professionals.
Have tons of Respect for the Seals. They are a finite group. How you turn that comment into disrespect is beyond me. I've served with them. My point was referring to the partying crowd. Not the men and woman on DUTY. And Bob, if you think the job is done, give me 20 bucks of whatever you're on. I just wish Colin Powell was invited to bust his front's out.
Gunny? "...8 more months for rotation." From where Afghanistan to Iran?
I think he thinks that Obama is going to lose. It will never happen with the ilk that the GOP is throwing up against him.
Gunny, maybe they're worried that Gingrich could win.
What's up with Michelle's hands? Goofy. I'm surprised her "stylists" didn't tell her that looks ridiculous!!! It's so unnatural - she just looks "falsely posed" all the time. And, Barry Obama looks utterly evil in the 3rd photo down. Yikes - in fact, he looks like evil personified. Too bad his peeps pictured him like this. It's rather shocking and repulsive. Frightening. I would not vote for this creepy looking guy for President in 2012!! HE SCARES ME!!
If you scare that easy, then don't look in a mirror.
Jody, just admit that you don't like seeing a black couple standing in the front door of the White House. evil personified? PPPPPPUUUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEE
And raddave again strikes with the racist crap.......
I know. You probably voted for the guys who invaded Iraq (Bush 43) and gave up on "Bin Laden" because there were too busy trying to rob Iraq's oil.
Dixie girl, Pretty much says it all. What a BIGOT!!!!! She has more class on her worst day than you could ever have on your best!!!!!
Obama is doing a great job. Four More Years! Just watch and you will see.
I'm from the mountains too Bill, but you seem to be one of Mill Creeks finest. Haha! Deliverance at it's best. Who did you steal your internet access from?, the library or cell your in.
I knew Whitney Houston had close friends!
You're dang right. I liked her.
doing a great job at what? ruining our nation?....he is doing a great job at that...ANYONE BUT obama IN NOVEMBER!
Wow, the haters just can't pass up a chance to demonstrate their total LACK of CLASS and childish vindictiveness! Some people stop maturing at around, oh, 10 years old or so...
You are right.....I wish the dems would grow up and act like adults instead of children depending on others for their support.
haters? no.....patriots yes...ANYONE BUT obama IN NOVEMBER!
Wow. The propaganda from this site is amazing. The truth is at
.... any place but near you.
Good looking couples !

That sh*t was weak, too! Are you related to "Craig", too? Go home! Both of you are very, very sad! Sad and corny.
She should have worn many more necklaces to cover up her face! Now that would have been a picture!
