Here we go! First Grandmother/mother-in law --Free Loader comments
My wife and I where waiting for this dumb talking point to come out. But it didn't come from the points we thought it would. My Friend was at work today and overheard two "Freepers" talking at the next lunch table. Basically they where saying The Obama's are going to bring down the Honor of the White House for having the Mother-in-Law living in the white house.


They where like "How many other freeloaders are coming to the White House as well.

So my wife's friend turned around and called the one co-worker on the fact that SHE herself was having her mother living with her.


"Well, that's different she's ill".

Wife's friend: "If I remember correctly she only recently became ill what was the excuse for the last 6 years".

The women got huffy. "No one asked you to join this conversation".

To which the friend replied: "No one ask you to purposely sit next to me every day and spew your hate and Repulbican talking points".

"You might as well switch your party or quit here. You are the only Democrat in this company".

Then the Boss cleared his throat: "And IF she where to leave who would run our tech department and make your jobs easier. She has written programs that Make it a lot easier for your two to take half a day off every other week". He sat beside my wife's friend. "Besides, the Obama's aren't the first to have relatives living with them and they won't be the last. Besides they have family around those girls all the time and loving care".

1. Jeez, I hope Michelle doesn't get pregnant. They'll be griping about that "extra mouth to feed."

3. so much unkindness - this woman has taken care of those kids in her apt
while their parents were off campaigning. It's sad that simple compassion isn't possible for some people - to see the benefit of having someone to help the whole family feel more adjusted to a stressful change...

4. Ha! The boss subtly made it clear that Wife's Friend is the more
valued employee since she can produce work that makes the whiners unnecessary 4-8 hours a week.

6. She sounds anti-social. If I were the boss I'd watch out.
She also sounds like a back-stabber.

5. You can just feel the anger come out of people like this.
They're really grasping at straws, from the birth certificate to this. Hopefully it'll overwhelm a few of them and they'll spontaneously combust, or at least stroke out.

8. God forbid the White House should support a real family with family values.

10. Just imagine if Obama builds a compound in Chicago likes
GWB's Crawford Ranch or Cheney's Wyoming compound/fortress/ranch/hidey hole.

These hypocrites make me sick. :argh:
