Michelle Obama reveals she 'scared the heck' out of daughter before giving her a cell phone (and White House security screened every contact number on it first)

......FULL TITLE

Michelle Obama has revealed that she waited until her eldest daughter was 12 before giving her a mobile because owning one is ‘a lot of responsibility’.

The First Lady said she ‘scared the heck’ out of Malia with ‘days of lectures’ on the dangers of talking to strangers before handing the device over.

I’m pretty sure the scarage wasn’t neccessary. I think the POTUS’ children are the last kids in the universe one has to worry about being lured away by paedophiles.

If owning a cell phone is “a lot of responsibility” why is the Federal government giving them away complete with a call plan to the unemployed (with the taxpayers, once again, paying for the redistribution of income)?

Hate to think what Moochelle would do if one of them ever ate a Twinkie.

Oh good God, this is such a pathetic new campaign by Team Obama. Trying to portray them as regular folk with normal issues.

"‘I don’t even know who your friends are if they can connect to you without picking up a phone and saying: ‘Hello, Mrs Obama, this is X calling for Malia’."

What a load of crapola. Like Moochie is baking cookies in the kitchen and answers the phone when Cindy from down the street calls for her daughter.

(vomit break)

OK, I'm back... And Malia's going to start texting with some neighborhood child molester who wants to meet up with her later and the Secret Service will never notice.

I can't even believe liberal morons fall for this new image making excercise.

“Even then the phone was restricted to certain numbers and every person on her contacts list had to be screened to make sure they were not a threat.”

This tax payer funded task was an exploitation of the Secret Service and a government service that we, the common folk do not have available to screen our kid's friends list.

And even more troubling is the fact that Obama likely talks about Top Secret issues over dinner or while watching TV.

What if this “Malia” character is some type of Secret Agent for some other nation and is using her cell phone to transmit Top Secret information?

Why does a 12 yr old girl, with a personally assigned Secret Service security task force assigned to her, who attends a private school - need a cell phone at all?

It’s not like she rides the bus to school, or runs around by herself when she visits her friends. You know, like normal folks ....

What is she talking about? I worry about my kids in a lot of ways, but talking to strangers on a telephone was about the last thing I worried about.

I’d be much more concerned with the internet usage, e-mail and chat rooms and the like; For the phones, I just gave them pay-per-call phones and said they had $5 a month to call home with. It kept them from doing anything much else with the phones.

Of course, now they are older, and pay for their own text message plans. Nobody hardly uses the phone for talking anymore. My son uses skype if he wants to talk to his friends, usually while they are playing video cames on the computer.

No surprise, she scares the heck out of me every time I see her picture or hear her voice.

That's a no-brainer. She gets the day's talking points via text message - from Axlegrease, Plouffy, and Gibbs.
