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.

She didn’t agree to appear with MO, she was already scheduled and MO - needing to repair her image — is horning in, no way Laura can back out now.....

But then, the government today is happy to spend borrowed money recklessly.

I should have added, with or without tax revenue.

Can I blame her for other things?

Sure, if she deserves it. But not for issues such as the topic of this thread for which she is getting widely bashed but for which she is not at fault.

So are you. Anytime our side displays this collegial attitude toward the Obama’s we lose ground. Michelle Obama has never spent one moment at a 9/11 ceremony.

Bush ushered in Obama with TARP and Laura is helping Michelle reconstruct her image.

Thanks for the civil discourse. Shame that was the best your could do.

Michelle would back out. She would feign illness or some other obligation.

Let me say this, indy lindy. Since you repeated the same dumb post to me x3: You’re an idiot; you’re an idiot; you’re an idiot. You don’t read, you don’t think, you just spew.

The level of discourse around here has become like you. Name calling, smart assed. Looks like DU. You would fit right in over there.

Bye, bye, bye.

I did apologize for the triple post. I had a phone call at the time.

Thanks. Have a nice evening.

Laura Bush is a useful idiot. She’s an airhead for doing this.

Keynoting a memorial for victims of 9/11 --- as Laura Bush was INVITED to do --- is not airheaded. But, from what I have seen of the trends on this forum, there are many fewer posters here who honor that memory.

It's amazing how many FReepers are “useful idiots.” They're as bad as some libs...they don't bother to learn the facts or don't allow facts to interfere with their preconceived opinions.

Well.......... that says a lot more FOR Laura Bush than MO, doesn’t it? Laura has too much C-L-A-S-S to back out.

Oh, this stinks.

I was thinking about going to PA to see Laura, but Michelle ma belle upsets my stomach and my equilibrium.

Laura clearly was planning this alone before the usurper nasty horned in on the event.

Rats.

It's interesting how threads on Laura Bush bring out the ugliest, most malicious, filthiest trolls, isn't it?

Scroll down and see who says the worst stuff about Laura, and you're guaranteed to find some really messed up people (and a heck of a lot of just plain ignorance).

Laura has every right and every obligation to remember 9/11. Michelle is the creep in this story, and those who are too stupid to understand that and don't deserve the effort it takes to post to them.

Laura has been sticking her little finger into the eyes of conservatives for some months now. She's pro-abortion. Oh, how stylish!

She's pro-amnesty. Oh, how nobesse oblige of her!!

Blech.

Michele 0bama and 0bama himself makes a mockery of “honoring” 9/11 victims by pretending to honor the 9/11 victims. 0bama is incapable of honoring these victims because his actions so strongly betray his utter contempt for America. You may think otherwise, but in my opinion, I do not believe that zero cares a wit about 9/11 victims or America (at least as it has been over the last 230 years).
Laura Bush should know better and refuse to be a part of this charade. She could have attended another ceremony honoring the victims in a less political separate setting.

What part of “Laura Bush was INVITED -— early this month -— to be keynote speaker at the PA 9/11 memorial event, and m. obama only butted in to the event yesterday” do you NOT understand?? It is not as though Bush shopped around for an event to ATTEND, as you put it. She was specifically invited. m.obama was NOT invited but has invited herself. This is what I was pointing out on the thread. However, you and others refused to acknowledge the facts and push your anti-Bush agenda.
