Michelle Obama, Laura Bush plan joint 9/11 event
Politico ^ | 08/23/10 | Mike Allen

Posted on 08/23/2010 6:29:10 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

It’s a first for first ladies: Michelle Obama and Laura Bush will appear together next month on the 9th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks in Shanksville, Pa., where United flight 93 went down after the crew and passengers fought back against terrorists.

Administration officials said the event will build on Michelle Obama's focus on the heroes of Sept. 11 — celebrating their heroism, honoring their memories and supporting their families.

It is good to honor the victims of 9/11 regardless of who else is attending.

...other distinguished guests including Secretary of Interior Ken Salazar...

Who is working damn hard to keep us dependent on the oil of the Muslim-ruled middle east.

I agree...the “optics” (to use a newly vogue buzzword) are horrible...since WHEN does MO or BO care about the 9/11 heroes? When?

Do they really care about the victims or defeating terrorism? Not one bit. None.

It’s nice that Michelle can celebrate the heroism of those patriots, unarmed militia members who fought against the terrorists to protect the capitol - knowing they would die in the process - even though at the time of their sacrifice she had never found any reason to be proud of her country.

Laura Bush was a gracious First Lady, but I’m not so impressed with her “post” First Lady offerings. Having said that, however, if she was requested by the White House to appear with the current First Lady, she’d almost have to comply.

Saw her book at a store over the weekend. Giant piles of 'em. I bet it isn't selling...I won't buy it after her stupid remarks on her tour, and I am certain liberals won't buy it....so it is gathering dust.

Look for it to be in the clearance section for $3.99 soon.

Michelle Obama has never shown up at a 9/11 ceremony.

Trying to hide the fact Obozo is a muslim by showing up at one, Michelle?

As for Laura Bush, they couldn’t get GWB to come out and defend Obozo....so....they get DhimmiLaura Bush to make an ass out of herself by appearing with the America hater Mooshelle.

“The National Park Foundation, official charity of America’s national parks, announced today that First Lady Michelle Obama will join Mrs. Laura W. Bush as an additional keynote speaker at the September 11, 2010

Meaning, Michelle Obama inserts herself with an already planned Laura Bush keynoted event to save her husband's embarrassing events recently.

Let me guess:

Laura Bush will be classy paying nothing but respect

Michelle Obama will bash America and in some way intone that we were responsible for the attacks on 9/11.

Laura Bush. like her husband is an acommodating globalist.

The difference between Bush and Obama is one of style and degree, not substance. And you can the same for Clinton and Bush I.

THe last President we had who thought of himself as an AMERICAN Presient was Ronald Reagan.

Before him we had a muserable succesionof OTHER losers: Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford and Carter. And you really have to go back to Teddy Roosevelt and Calvin Coolidge to find OTHER Presidents worthy of real admiration and respect.

No way. If someone trashed my wife for 2 straight years by NAME, I would not be seen in the same state as them under any scenario.

Shame on Laura. Let her come to NYC or got the Pentagon instead of being with that witch.

Speaking of witches - check out Drinking w Bob’s new one on Pelosi being a witch. Classic rant!
