Nice stall tactic, you completely miss the point. Is it ok to compare Bush to Hitler and the Nazi's? You just want to turn it around, I never said the criticism of Obama was fair, what I said was you are ignoring what the left did to Bush. Your response shows exactly that.

 

 

Stall tactic? :lol:

 

Did you not read post #51 or are you intentionally ignoring where I said the hate has been fairly equal when it comes to political decisions.

 

For your clarification though....no it isn't fair or right to compare Bush to Hitler or Nazis. Forgive me for not mentioning it earlier because the thought is ludicrous to begin with that I didn't realize I had to address to get to my point. That being said, going back to the original point you brought up.....the overall hate on Obama is far worse than anything Bush has received. No way anything said about Obama is five times nicer than Bush.

CBS tried to prove Bush didnt do something in Nat. Guard

 

Michelle Obama will have us all wearing cut off sleeves.

 

Hillary Clinton got a lot of criticism.

 

What did Barbara or Laura Bush do to get spotlight on them. They tried to stay out of spotlight.

 

 

I had no idea that the First Lady was Larry the Cable Guy's fashion consultant.

Michelle Obama will have us all wearing J. Crew. Pretty sensible, IMO.

Re: the Bush to Obama hatred comparisons, we have some people with some awfully short memories. Bush was hit much more than Obama, including by the mainstream media which Obama gets kid glove treatment from. JS-Bush was also compared to an ape or didn't you see the pictures/videos at the time?

 

However, as to Mrs. Obama the only first ladies I remember being as harshly treated were Clinton and Reagan.

I remember all of that. I just think that racially tinged hate is worse than anything said about President Bush.

To me hate and disrespect are the same, no matter the reason. Ugly and insulting don't need a qualifier.

I don't mind the trip but from a purely PR perspective, this seems pretty dumb to do with an election coming up.

More? Really? And for whatever the "mainstream media" doesn't say about President Obama, FoxNews makes up for in quantity and fervor.

 

Also, for Pres. Bush it was a chimp, not an ape. This was an unwarranted attack on his intellect, and not on his wife. The comparison of Mrs. Obama to an ape is a racial slur.

We'll agree to disagree. It's all good.

Not even close.

The venom directed toward Bush & Obama has been pretty equal from my perspective.

 

Their wives, however, are an entirely different matter.

Oh look...a thinly veiled attempt to compare Obama and Hitler.

Could have been talking about Il Duce, he was a socialist after all.

I don't remember the left publicly disrespecting President Bush on the tarmac.

 

I don't remember the left sending racist emails to one another about President Bush.

 

I don't remember an entire cable news channel trying vehemently to disprove President Bush's citizenship/birth certificate.

 

I don't remember an entire cable news organization trying to disprove President Bush's Christianity and label him a Muslim. What's in a name, I guess.....

 

Do I really need to talk about the many people brought on camera to exclaim that they wouldn't vote for President Obama because he is black?

 

I definitely can't recall a First Lady receiving the amount of criticism that Michelle Obama has received and all she has really done is try to make our kids eat healthier. Ohhh the nerve of her.....

 

 

Do I need to go on?

 

C'mon PP92.....MSNBC's entire evening lineup consists of Obama cheerleaders and knock down artists for anything with an ® by it. Some on Fox are obnoxious like Hannity, but I think O'Reilly is pretty fair as is Van Sustern. For MSNBC-Matthews, O'Donnell, Sharpton, Big Ed, and the lady (name slips my mind) are unabashed liberals/socialists.
