The moment her face appeared, I gasped, “oh the crazy Right will be having a field day tomorrow about this!”
The “this” was Michelle Obama’s surprise appearance at the end of the Oscars to announce the best picture award. You’d have thought she was having a private meeting with the widow of Osama Bin Laden to hear the hue and cry from the reactionaries.
“She’s being petty and small” cavorting with all those Hollywood types, raged Jennifer Rubin. I mean really! Can’t they EVER leave America alone to its fun without intruding?
Forget that the crazy element that comprises the Republican right these days hates Hollywood which begs the question why they were watching in the first place.
Breitbart always the class act, called her appearance “obscene” for reasons only they could understand.
Of course they forget as they always do, that both Bushes, Laura and George W. made appearances at the Oscars themselves.
But oh lawdy, when Michelle does it, it’s “grasping.” And of course, it ain’t about race, or nuthin’ like that. No, it’s never about that.

Alternet does a great job of coming up with its own Oscar picks this year. For saying and doing really dumb things all the while trying to appear normal–as in corporate executives and others of their ilk. The list of quotes is rather telling–*hint*–they don’t really give a rat’s behind about us regular folks. It’s always about them.
Here are just a few to whet your appetite:
Facebook’s Eduardo Saverin scored big-time, landing Mark Zuckerberg as a roommate at Harvard, using American resources to score billions in income, and then revoking his citizenship to avoid paying any taxes
Chicago Tribune: “Western-style private enterprise..will lead the world out of the mess it led the world into.”
PRO-LIFE GOWN: Rep. Scott DesJarlais (R-TN) said “All life should be cherished and protected. We are pro-life.” It was later learned that he had encouraged both his lover and his wife to get abortions.
Billionaire Kenneth Griffin: The wealthy “have an insufficient influence” on politics today.
Rick Santorum: “Rape victims should make the best of a bad situation.”
CEO Ilana Weinstein about Wall Street bonus cutbacks: “It’s a disaster.”
Senator James Inhofe: “The arrogance of people to think that we, human beings, would be able to change what He is doing in the climate is to me outrageous.”
Nutrition classes being taught by Coca Cola and Hershey’s
Now go and read the rest of them!

Make note of this man. If you see him, call authorities. He’s slipped out of the home again and is running loose. It’s hard to understand how he does with, not having a brain and all, but he does.
His name?
Steve Lavin. He’s an elected official. Yes, the good people of Montana abandoned their brains at the voting booth and sent him to the State House.
Once there, Steve introduced legislation that would allow corporations to. . . .wait for it . . . .VOTE!
And I guess, if a “person” can vote, well I guess they can run for office, right?
If you see a brain rolling down the road, stop and pick it up.
It’s either Steve’s or some other Montana voter who thought he’d be a good person to help run the state.
I don’t know which is sadder.
I really don’t.

I just want you to know ahead of time. These people are not racist. They surely tell you they are not. The head of the Montana Tea Party posted this on her Facebook page or on her blog, “Cowgirl Blog”. Don’t bother trying to find it, she’s apparently shut it down. You ask why? Oh, because she thinks this is humorous:
Yeah, no racism here, move along.

Well now sleep on that and meet me tomorrow.
Sigh… the idiots get worse every day. The corporation thing is really scary and is sending us down the slippery slope. “Walmart for President”!
Ya know, it can’t be far behind can it? Gosh, I truly never knew we had this many nuts in the country. !END
I didn’t see the show. Oscars are boring enough to have to sit through them as a nominee. Mrs. Obama had no reason to be on that show at all. It was inappropriate. Considering half the country is out of work, homeless and starving and these nigga’s are running America into the ground I’m astonished she would even do this. Now her husband – yeah he is gay and has been since wayy before 2008 (they are legally separated and she is waiting to leave him and his many WHITE lovers) but I digress…I’m not a racist and it took me 4 years to read through everything Obama did and had not done. But between these drone attacks on foreigners, and the detaining of Americans for no reason other than suspicious “terrorist” theories; the GOP and I hate them mind you, have made some valid points concerning Obama’s government. His administration is leaving him in droves, he is still an arrogant prick, he is owned by corporations who have him in their pocket. And now, he has totally given up on trying to reason with Congress. Congress is infiltrated by Tea party people but in truth they are nothing less than people fighting for our and their rights. I do believe most of what they say and want are wrong and don’t speak for most of the country. But Obama is totally out of his debt here. He has to step aside, admit he’s in over his head, let Biden take over and compromise or we will be in the greatest depression the world and this country has ever seen and that’s going to happen starting on March 1 – so if Michele’s appearance on TV for the Oscars was ridiculous and disturbing.
I totally thought it was really weird to have her on the show – weird in that I think it diminished her role as the FLOUS, particularly to have appeared on this Oscar’s show that was full of horrible racist and misogynist “jokes…” It just didn’t make any sense….then again in a totally nonsensical manner, and all other things being equal, it could have been just a fun thing to do…but it under the circumstances it wasn’t fun, just weird.
Well the whole thing was weird. I doubt Seth will be back. The Star Trek thing was boring. The boobs joke was not funny. And I agree, some of the jokes were really off. I doubt she watched it. It’s been done since FDR. Reagan did it, and as I said both Laura and George did it. !END
I didn’t think it was possible for a post comment to be more disturbing than the post content, but there it is. I’m so troubled by this world and some of the people in it.
yep Jean, every once in a while, one of them pops its head up and needs a whack. lol !END
I thought the same thing when I saw The Fist Lady on the Oscars. How petty, and they never give up.
lol…yeah. !END
