FLIPFLAPJACKSTACK,

What are you whining about now? Randy Cox

Faaggydog - who are you talking about now?

Michelle Obama is married to the greatest man on Earth. She is a beautiful smart lady. I admire her very much. She will make the best 1st lady ever. I am so proud of them. They have such a beautiful God sent family.

yeahright3: "Nope Just Ice, just like you people can't help yourselves with the Barack as a muslim pictures."

You people? What people?

I've stated this before and I'll state it again; Barack Obama is not a Muslim. I really don't believe he's a Christian either. I think he's an atheist like his mother. You should like that.

carolinakhaki: "Well, Just Ice, given the number of comments I've seen from Palin supporters on this very site talking about how "cute" she is, I'd say Michelle Obama's comment has some merit."

The remark Michelle Obama made wasn't intended as a compliment. The remark was made to reduce Gov. Palin to "just another pretty face". You didn't find that demeaning?

I've never made that comment about Gov. Palin myself. And as far as who I'm supporting...I'm supporting the best qualified and most experienced candidate running for president. That's John McCain.

More empty words from a washed up poet to introduce a woman who is full of words. Someone please ask Michelle Obama if she'd feel safe walking alone in South Chicago where he husband transformed that community.

Nope Just Ice, just like you people can't help yourselves with the Barack as a muslim pictures.

Rush Limbaugh was busy so she had to take Maya.

yeahright3: "Michelle is wasting her words. You know some of these back woods types are too dumb to vote on issues."

I'll vote based on actions. You can vote based on lofty words and campaign rhetoric.

yeahright3: Palin's speech on the economy. "If we all buy more lipstick we will stimulate the economy and our husbands at the same time"

Nothing but insults and inappropriate remarks...so typical...but you can't help yourself.

If a candidate wants my vote, a sure way to not get it would be to enlist the aid of Maya.....

FLIPFLAPJACKSTACK,

What are you whining about now?
