When one of them gets busted at an underage drinking party, or has to have an abortion so she won’t be “punished with a child” will the SRM report it? Nah....

George W. Bush, to his credit, never trotted his daughters out to boost his popularity. And if they ever did anything wrong, it was all over the press.

This president and his butt-licking propaganda toadies make me want to vomit.

...those in the press pool must agree not to telegraph where he’s going. Violators, she said, would be thrown out of the pool.

So let it be written; so let it be done.so let

I’m all for leaving the kids alone. It’s not their fault that their dad is a delusional messianic narcissist.

However, he should leave them out of the spotlight if he expects the press to do so.

The most hypocritical administration in the history of the presidency, with the help of the liberal media.

I couldn’t agree more. You realize your name is on their list??

I hope there are some reporters who will dog the dogs relentlessly ( I am referring to BO of course)

The kids should be left alone. It is not their fault that their father is a jack ass socialist.
When they are of age and start speaking up, they become fare game.
I do find it disgusting, that barry and mickey use these little girls to their benefit. When necessary, they are dressed as cute little girls otherwise they look like thrift shop rejects.

So his sister is joining them on vacation. I wonder why he didn’t invite his brother from Kenya (the one who lives in a hut) to join the group? Or his Kenyan grandmother??

Exactly. It was wonderful of the media to respect Palin by leaving her kids alone, right? </s>

Hiding behind the kids IMHO...

Who is on the Corporate Jets that landed before the "TFR" went into effect?

Who on those Jets is he dining with at the likes of the Hollywood elites homes? (and don't think that won't happen, grifting a free meal....)

This gives him cover not to answer questions and not let his ratings slip as his mouth will be shut for a week.

He is to anal of a narcissist not to be deal making., vs. having fun.

IMHO that is why they do not want the press twittering where he is etc....

The press won't do their job, who will....

Well, I suppose threatening to throw disobedient reporters out of the pool is better than threatening to throw them into the pool.

See Michelle, I told you that we had plenty of space to put all of the old and worthless Americans and worthless depressed and disabled veterans in and get them out of the way. We could put about 50 million of them in that big hole. Then, we can use their estate taxes to fund the 40 million former illegals, who are now legal citizens and our voters and needing free healthcare.

Quite frankly, if one of them gets pregnant, I hope no one will know about it except their close family members.

And yet, to the left, its Sarah Palin who whores her children out for media attention.

My girls are off limits. If you want to print something bad use the Palin girls. I bet Obama tells this to the press. Its all right to let public say dirty mean words at Sarah & her girls for they are children of a slut.... He is the scum of the earth. Please American citizens open your eyes to what is going on right under your nose ....

I can believe that Zero worked for a three letter intelligence agency ... the letters are K G B not C I A, however. (Or, perhaps G R U?)

I agree; we don’t need to know about it. My point is the double standard at work with 0bama’s children and the Bush and Palin families.

That’s for sure. Any conservative in public office today will have their family hounded. I listed to Glenn Beck this morning and it’s amazing what conservatives go through.

Why should this family be any different than Hollywood types that have to deal with papparazzi all the time?

Free Press.

Should the press show some respect? Probably.

But the Prez shouldn’t even think about using his powers to shut down the press.
