Fact: She was wearing very short shorts.
Fact: She was wearing a **large** emblem of the peace symbol that was used to denigrate our soldiers during the Vietnam War.
What on earth were her parents thinking???? Malia is a member of the First Family, and as such, she represents America abroad.
This was more than bad taste. It was inflammatory and insulting to our military. And...Personally, if it were my child, she would be dressed more modestly.
By the way, I thought dressing a little girl in a spaghetti strap dress for her appearance at the 2008 Democratic Convention was a little much, too! She looked like a little girl playing dress-up for the prom.
And...If the media can shred Palin’s children, then it should be open season on Obama’s kids as well.

I agree, you made your point very well, without profanity or insulting langauge. I would change your reference to an “insult to our military” to include that it is insulting/offensive to the American people that President Obama (and his family) represent. President Obama should behave in a manner that reflects badly on him nor his country and neither should his family. I would also say (looked at the thread briefly and left) the attire of Malia’s apparent companion was even less appropriate than hers.
When they do posters here should be free to point it out but they should adhere to high (hopefully) personal standards as well as those stated by the creator of this forum. If we do that we should ignore criticism from the left, as they will attack regardless.
It is also clear that they are not bothered by the tone or the language in the referenced thread, they simply attack it to quell descent. Judging from many of the posts, following an attack, it works .
