airbrushed, that she has the most beautiful complexion.

It's just MORE perfect in this shot.

And Michelle ... I know you are very smart person but I must say you are absolutely stunning looking....

from an old white guy ... who looks like John McCain - but I have never used the words "that one"

I am so proud of you First lady.

in Ohio Saturday. So vibrant, sincere, and elegant. I don't think she used a teleprompter at all. The things she said came straight from her heart and it was obvious. When people weren't cheering, they were hanging on to her every word. And, oh yes, same thing goes for hubby, who clearly adores her. What an incredible duo!

I've been wondering if it's too early to talk about Michelle-2016. I ordered an "I Meow for Michelle" cat collar from the Obama store 'cause I've been hoping Michelle will run.

Any chance you have cliffs notes on this wall of text?

All I got out of it was that Romney is immoral, Obama is Al Capone, and what the fuck is this?

Worst still, the uneducated were awakened to the notion that, dead drunk during the 2008 elections, they unknowingly elected a "nigger." But there are more than enough votes to counter that basic "while trash" notion, only if Obama mobilizes the younger and better educated who indeed do see the edge of the cliff in the distance.

Now, that is crazy. I bet they didn't really read it. I hope that is the case anyway.

what it says. On principle. Not me, I'm heavy with the hatchet! THIS one a jaw dropper (I wasn't on the jury, but just read the post). I'm guessing (and hoping, like you) that they just didn't read this.

I know I got a kick out of it. Glad they are on the case upholding standards and all.

Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: We need some mechanism to track people who alert posts that should not have been alerted (a category into which this post clearly falls.) I don't know about the alerter - but I read Skinner's "rules for this election cycle" and this is well within them.

I was the alerter.

#5 needs to re-read the TOS.

Seems that Skinner et al, disagree with them.

The post is a psychotic-sounding word-salad rant about topics that the old "eugenics" movement used to laaaahve.

Extra points for creepiness in the username reference.

amusedly,
