they should be careful because that I find unacceptable

Ooooooh, I'm sure the're a shakin' in their boots.

Or is this a thiny veiled threat of how he intends to abuse his power should he be elected President?

What can he do about it? Nothing. Since she’s campaigning, she’s open to criticism.

She’s actively involved in his campaign, making public appearances on his behalf. She’s absolutely fair game.

I’m a little confused. Did Obama catch some Republican layin’ on his wife?

She can dish it out, but he can’t take it.

This is the same phenomenon that gave America Oprah Winfrey. But this is A LOT scarier. All it gave Oprah was tons of money and influence. Obamalamadingdong will have REAL POWER to damage the country in ways about which Winfrey could only dream!

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: With Obama we started out, we couldn’t talk about his big ears ‘cause that made him nervous. We’ve gone from that to this: Not only can we not mention his ears...

We can’t talk about his mother.

We can’t talk about his father.

We can’t talk about his grandmother unless he does, brings her up as a “typical white person.”

We can’t talk about his wife, can’t talk about his preacher, can’t talk about his terrorist friends, can’t talk about his voting record, can’t talk about his religion.

We can’t talk about appeasement.

We can’t talk about color; we can’t talk about lack of color.

We can’t talk about race. We can’t talk about bombers and mobsters who are his friends. We can’t talk about schooling. We can’t talk about his name, “Hussein.”

We can’t talk about his lack of experience. Can’t talk about his income. Can’t talk about his flag pin.

This started out we can’t call him a liberal.

It started out we just couldn’t talk about his ears.

Now we can’t say anything about him.
END TRANSCRIPT

***The GOP, should I be the nominee, can say whatever they want to say about me, my track record,” Obama said.***

Track record? What track record I didn’t know B. HUSSEIN Obama had one.

***Michelle Obama later clarified the remark, saying she meant she was proud of how Americans were engaging in the political process and that she had always been proud of her country.***

If Michelle can’t speak without insulting this country, we don’t want her as first lady.

Democrat Barack Obama has a message for Tennessee's Republican Party: "Lay off my wife."

American voter RIV has a message for Barack Obama: "Remove your wife from the bully pulpit or learn to live with my Constitutional freedom of speech and its inherent responsibility to respond to her opinions!"

Berry is proving that he’s a bigger weakling than I thought he was. Whining is not a quality most people want in a president and Berry is class A whiner.

If the “unpatriotic” comment ticked obama off, I can hardly wait to see what he says if the rumored video of her talking about “whitey” surfaces.

Tenn.'s GOP tells Obama: She doesn't work here or we would have fired her a long time ago

Hey, if she’s going to go out and campaign for him, then her comments are fair game as much as his.

This is complete liberal BS that she can campaign and say anything she pleases, while being completely unaccountable for her statements.

Personally, I don’t think much of any candidate that has his wife out there campaigning for him. Either party. It’s just bull. You got something to say, say it yourself or have one of your hired spokesmen say it in your name. Having your “skirt” go out and say what you don’t have the onions to say is pathetic.

STFU Hussein Obama, we’ll talk about that racist POS wife of yours anytime we want...she made herself a target by trashing America

YOU, your wife, rev wright et al have made this election all about race!, in fact you set racism back 30-40 yrs...so have the 92% of black voters who support you (in fact i would bet that the VAST majority of the blacks who support you out of PURE racism, don’t even know where you stand on the issues)

...i am more than certain people are sick and tired of you and your team playing the race card constantly...you have cried wolf far too many times
