“The girls are obviously in school during the day.....what does she need to be there for?”
This is a very silly thing to attack on.
When our children were younger we ALWAYS made sure one of us was available during the school day early in the year. There’s no way both of use would have been hundreds of miles away. Strikes me as something any good parent would want to do if possible.
"And knocking down those two towers was a good start -- you know -- chickens coming home to roost."
BS!
And O will be on SNL while Ike hits Texas, how uncaring of him!
speaks...........jeez
Lying and deceit.
It’s so “them”.
At least in Iowa, all republican Headquarters were shuttered because no campaigning was taking place.
This is a major blunder for the Obama campaign. Spread it far and wide!!
The truth is, the Obama campaign didn’t want footage of Obama at 9/11 to be put up against “for the first time in my life I am proud of my country” and “America is a mean country’ etc
I won’t bash her for wanting to be with her kids.
But she showed many of us this week that her priorities are not in order and are self serving. It was more important to attend events on Wednesday that would hopefully advance her husbands campaign, than it was to honor our nation on Thursday. Had she been home on Wednesday too, I would have defended her. Instead she gave us all a message....
When push comes to shove...the Obamas care first about the Obamas.
Yep change we can believe in...believe that.
Sounds like Michelle is also a creationist.
Because Charlie Gibson thinks she's a pig who smells of fish...
I think we should stop call calling them the "mainstream" media. They are not at all in tune with mainstream America.
‘Why Wasn’t Michelle Obama at the 9/11 Ceremony?’
Well, maybe it’s because they’ve figured out that Michelle ain’t adding to the vote total for the Obama/Biden ticket.
Just a guess.
Obviously she took seriously her pastor’s view that 9/11 was evidence of America’s chickens coming home to roost.

As a stay at home mom for the past 17 years, I would concur. But my husband never ran for the Presidency. A competent surrogate (grandparent, trusted neighbor or aunt) could surely fill in for the short time for her to appear at such an important occasion.
I see that ABC's Tapper has updated his blog:
UPDATE: As has been pointed out elsewhere, Michelle Obama did do some campaigning this week, in Indiana and Ohio. How does that fit in with the campaign's explanation that she was too busy to attend the 9/11 ceremony because this was Sasha and Malia's first week of school? I asked the campaign and will get back to you when and if it responds.
Gee, I wonder where "elsewhere" is?
The are the obama-rat media.
They are the obama-rat media.
Because she still thinks this was a Bush “inside job”, was faked and refuses to honor something that America attacked all by themselves.
She is so very honorable... (puke)
The fact she was missing from the ceremony speaks for itself.
nuff said.
