Republicans are CONSTANTLY attacking Dem first kids for 'being ugly', or 'dressing like they belong in a bar' or whatever. Then they try to pretend there's some equivalency by saying 'but Dems attacked the Bush girls'. The Bush girls got falling down drunk in public - as adults. No Dems were saying 'they're the ugliest First kids ever', or taking them to task for thinking pardoning a turkey was lame.

There is simply no equivalency to be had on this issue.

I dislike the term slut shaming and think it's over used.

And it just makes me queasy to see the term used for any reason when talking about the Obama daughters.

this is a phrase that succinctly describes a cultural phenomena in one hyphenated word that might otherwise require a paragraph or two of liberal-speak gobbledy-gook to get across, which would mean it wouldn't get across. Sometimes we over-analyze things and ignore the value of effective memes, even if they aren't perfect. People get it. They understand that the Obama kids were "slut-shamed" and the reaction to that forced a massively unusual event: a Republican apology and a Republican firing.

Gift. Horse.

I WISH i could have squeezed another phrase that succinctly describes a cultural phenomena in one hyphenated word that might otherwise require a paragraph or two of liberal-speak gobbledy-gook to get across in there, but it's been a long day.

But seriously: we over think things too much. The meme works.

despite the fact you were doing just fine explaining. i tend to think of man-splaining as when dudes do not know WTF they are talking about. cause that happens, LOL.

Because these are some of the most disgustingly ignorant pieces of shit I've ever seen.

How's that minority outreach going for yall?!

it is normal.

He has a point. 90% of the time the media just plays along. Every now and then, mostly by accident or because the twitterverse blew the fuck up, they stop playing.

be so lucky to be as mature, intelligent, responsible, etc.

There is absolutely

NOTHING

the right can find on ANY Obama, including wife and daughters, NOTHING, so they complain about a bored look on her face?

Jesus Christ this makes me angry...

At the risk of sounding like Joe Biden in one of his off moments, can anyone find a single thing about any of the Obama's that isnt something to aspire to?

Other than some of the President's positions that I find not liberal enough, but as human beings, as to behavior, attitude, etc.

Has there been ONE legitimate personal or for that matter administration scandal?

NOT ONE

The "party of responsibility" never takes responsibility for anything. A bunch of whiney toddlers. I wonder how many of them still suck their thumbs.

The MSM did not cause Elizabeth Lauten's graceless, tactless, classless and boorish behavior. The MSM did bring attention to Lautner's significant deficits .... Lautner should be happy .... she is still young and has some chance for self improvement

He was offensive

I seem to remember unending replays of Howard Dean using a mike that amplified an expression
of great joy that made people think he was a nut case, and thus ended the candidacy of a
man greatly suited to becoming POTUS.

So, STFU, Spicer. Just STFU.

why can't members of the party of "personal responsibility" EVER take personal responsibility? EVER. they always find a way to make themselves victims.

asshole

paraphrasing...'when democrats say these kind of things they get swept under the rug....no one reports on it'

bye bye Ms. Lauten

even after her big apology. Good!

I sure as heck wouldn't want someone in my employ with her 'ethics'.
She's disgusting.
She ruined her career because she's a hateful nasty human. No one is responsible for her fate but her.
Good riddance.

She did the crime and now she has to face the music
