I’m not a fashion expert, but I doubt these “peace symbol” t-shirts were entirely appropriate for an official state mission to Europe. Might as well be carrying a “Nuke America” sign.
As it turns out, that’s pretty much what Obama did at the summit.
I may not be a fashion expert either Jim, and it may not be racist, but calling an 11 year old girl a “whore” for wearing a peace symbol t-shirt is completely over the line.
Maturity and decorum may not be two of the standards that liberals feel compelled to follow when talking about children, but conservatives and Freepers in particular should follow those standards.
Just because the children were “used” by the President and First Lady doesn’t mean they become targets.
Would it be possible to get a list of the persons who posted on the thread in question whose comments were pulled when the abuse button was pushed?
Cindy Sheehan, Jodie Evans, Hugo Chavez,
Medea Benjamin [co-founder Code Pink]
Code Pink 'Bundles' for Barack, 4/14/2008
"The co-founder of the radical anti-war group Code Pink [Jodie Evans] has bundled more than $50,000 for Sen. Barack Obamas presidential campaign, and pro-troops groups are demanding that he return the money."

The RCP calls for the armed overthrow of the U.S. government...
From the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party (revcom.us or rwor.org) :
"Create Public Opinion, Seize Power: We are preparing minds and organizing forces for the time when there is a major crack in the system, whenever it comes and wherever it comes from: an opening that makes it possible to bring the future Revolutionary Army of the Proletariat (R.A.P.) into the field and wage a revolutionary armed struggle that actually has a chance of winning.
And we have said that building our party itself is the most important part of organizing forces for revolution. This is true now, and it is true looking forward to the creation of that future R.A.P. and the waging of that armed struggle.":
