Historian Shelby Foote (PBS’s Civil War) was an early white supporter of black civil rights in the South. He said, many years later, that the biggest tragedy of the civil rights movement was the fact that all the awful, dire consequences the evil racists said would happen all did happen pretty much like they said they would.

I think she’s looking at him with disdain... Notice out of the corner of her eye? Her expression seems to me to say more of a “Oh dear, man up for Stalin’s sake... Why did I marry such a pansy?”

Oh boo effing hoo. He’s so full of sh*t. I KNEW he was going to do a cry photo op. He tried to get it at the memorial service for miners, but they all blew him off. You could see the frustration as the last one passed and ignored him, that he missed his crying photo op. He’s such a phony POS. I pity him.

I think this is the dress she wore sitting in Obama’s office and she puta sweater with it this time. This look is right for her because black hides weight. She does look good here.
