What if 'SNL' mocked Michelle Obama?
WorldNetDaily ^ | 10/23/2008 | Patrick J. Buchanan

Posted on 10/23/2008 4:46:14 PM PDT by bimboeruption

Perhaps the only institution in America whose approval rating is beneath that of Congress is the media. Both have won their reputations the hard way. They earned them. Consider the fawning indulgence shown insider Joe Biden with the dripping contempt visited on outsider Sarah Palin. Twice last weekend, Biden grimly warned at closed-door meetings that a great crisis is coming early in the term of President Obama: "Mark my words. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. ... Remember I said it standing here if you don't remember anything else I said … we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy." A "generated crisis"? By whom? Moscow? Beijing? Tehran? This is an astonishing statement from a chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee who has access to the same intelligence as George Bush. Joe was warning of a crisis like the Berlin Wall of July 1961, where JFK called for a tripling of the draft and ordered a call-up of reserves, or the missile crisis where U.S. pilots like John McCain were minutes away from bombing nuclear missile sites in Cuba and killing the Russians manning them. Is Russia about to move on the Crimea? Is Israel about to launch air strikes on Iran's nuclear sites? What is Joe talking about? If one assumes Joe is a serious man, we have a right to know. Instead, what we got was Obama's airy dismissal of Joe's words as a "rhetorical flourish" and a media – rather than demanding that Joe hold a press conference – acting as Obama surrogates parroting the talking points that Joe was just saying that new presidents always face tests.

YES! Sarah is BEAUTIFUL inside and out!

And she’s one smart cookie and one tuff broad.

Enemies of America—Be afraid. Be very afraid.

They have to glue Tina Fey’s ears down (true!) when she portrays Gov. Palin.

They don't lampoon Michelle because:
1. She is a very angry woman with a chip on her shoulder.
2. She has no sense of humor.
3. She's a lawyer and she'll sue.
4. She's black
5. She's the wife of the messiah
6. She's a liberal democrat/socialist/marxist

How bout an equally contemptuous attack on Hussein’s kids? Recall the media attack on Sarah Palin’s kids was accepted with a loud roar of approval by many media slimes.

I read in one of the UK papers that Biden had botox injections in his forehead. That’s why it’s so smooth.

His eyelids are more droopy now because one of the injections is given in the muscle between the eyes, and in some people, this makes their eyelids droop.

Not you -- Pat should be Eva Braun the way he writes and defends Adolf Hitler.

Maybe he has a crush on him and asks his buddy, Dennis Raimondo, to dress in Nazi regalia.

Is he still alive?

LOL!

I miss Flip Wilson, and Geraldine.

At least Geraldine was nice.
(Compared to Michelle.)
