Michelle Obama absent from 9/11 ceremony to be home with girls for 1st week of school. But...
WSBT ^

Posted on 09/11/2008 11:33:54 PM PDT by IDRATHERNOT

Conspiciously absent from September 11th memorial service, the Obama campaign claimed Michelle Obama was home with her children for the 1st week of school. However, on Sep. 10th, she spent most of the day at a "Working Mothers" roundtable in Fishers, Indiana (a 3.5 hour drive from Chicago).
FISHERS, Ind. — More evidence Indiana is in play this presidential election year: the Obama campaign focused on the state again Wednesday. This time it was Michelle Obama, right in the heart of Republican territory.

there is no Mrs. Biden. She and their 1 year old daughter were killed in a traffic accident some time ago.

Check out the current Mrs. Biden, 8/27/2008:

I second that.

But, as for Mrs. Obama not being at a 9-11 memorial service, for any reason, is unsuitable. It is disrespectful. Especially for a person who attended a church for 20 years, that had a pastor that said that the attacks were justice for our terrorist actions.

It certainly looks as if Mrs. Obama agrees with Pastor Wright. Her husband is the one who publicly stated that he was done with the church. Michelle never did. She has never said that she disagrees with Rev. Wrights views on 9-11 or white people. She very obviously does agree with him. And she said as much by her absence on Thursday. There is no reason what so ever why she could not have flown out for the ceremony, and been home when the girls got home from school.

Is that what you were referring to? Of course it’s possible disagree with what she meant, but the meanings to what you quoted and what she actually said are very different.

He is the most liberal Senator, but that’s like saying the “most chaste prostitute.” Though the Democrats have the majority, there aren’t very many liberal Democrats in the Senate.

I found this - it’s pretty interesting to read.

There certainly aren’t any conservative dems in there, either.

Tex, I also noticed that the Mcains got pins, but o did not! maybe I am reading more into this than is called for, but as a retired Firefighter and seeing those men pin on those pins spoke volumes to me. Another thing that bothered me was the way each placed their flower on the memorial, 2 reverently placed, 1 tossed away, but that is another subject.

Someone actually asked Michelle at an event what school her kids go to in Indiana since she was in Indiana when she was supposedly with her daughters for the first week of school.

Love to get a tape of that!

I feel that Michelle Obama didn’t want to shake hands with Cindy McCain. She seems to really dislike her.

Somehow, I don’t think that Michelle Obama would be in her element at a 9/11 memorial service.

But she would probably fit right in at one of those phony 9/11 observances at many mosques, which are designed to change the focus of 9/11 to combatting “hate crimes” against muslims!!!!

FReepers Far & Wide,

Michelle is not being hidden from the kook-fringe-left and working behind the scenes in order to shore up the krazies. I’m sure she made an appearance or two on 9/11 that were clandestine and designed to foment more hate.

Make no mistake,

THE OBAMA’s ARE RUNNING TWO CAMPAIGNS!!!

One white-washed, general campaign that sustains all the fawning media consumption and the other TRUE campaign is being waged in d’ hoodz around the country (just listen to urban radio in the morning). There is where you will find Oslamma’s true intent being bourne out by his minions.

Michelle is probably running the shadow campaign.

This stunned me, despite being a cynic.

How in the world could she not attend.

All their explanations are BS.

It’s fortunate the news cycle didn’t dwell on this.

All in all, from strictly a political standpoint, not showing up was a stupid move.

“...The blunders that occurred prior to the 2001 attacks were inexcusable and often outrageous...”

Like when x42 refused to take possesion of Osama bin Laden THREE TIMES! Had he done that on either one of those occassions, perhaps we would have the Twin Towers still standing, the Pentagon undamaged, and that Pennsylvania field would be am unknown patch of ground. AND, the Nearly three thousand people that died on 9/11 would be around today. Yes, there were blunders that occurred prior to the 2001 attacks. Bill Clinton’s was one of, if not the biggest blunders ever made that allowed what happened on September 11, 2001 to occurr.

She's pissed off because people keep making fun of her and she is pissed at the polls, tea parties, the march on DC on 9/12. She hadn't planned on moving out in 3.25 years and she is MAD now. Photobucket
