Pretending to be sad is not at all the same thing as showing appropriate respect for a great man -- or, at least, displaying the dignity and maturity that ought to go with the Presidency. I guess Obama was being honest about not having respect, dignity or maturity -- but that's hardly something to celebrate.Mrs Whatsithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11809287715660867405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-81194543486295284952013-12-11T18:52:23.628-06:002013-12-11T18:52:23.628-06:00BTW, my search string on youtube for finding Obama...BTW, my search string on youtube for finding Obama dancing video was "inauguration dance jealous Obama singer"pm317https://www.blogger.com/profile/01817747111612402845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-88493280074689829402013-12-11T18:47:52.341-06:002013-12-11T18:47:52.341-06:00I think MO's problem is one of lack of sophist...I think MO's problem is one of lack of sophistication -- is that because of money, race, and so on? May be, may be not. Because she was also somebody who got the best opportunities in life to go to the best schools. There seems to be a lot of 'I don't belong here' kind of inner daemons where there need not be any. Most spouses in her position have a 'public' face and a 'public' persona. She seems to have no use for that idea. Why she should reveal so much of herself being on the world stage is something she seems to not understand. And I call that lack of sophistication.pm317https://www.blogger.com/profile/01817747111612402845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-83186342878439657802013-12-11T18:35:44.533-06:002013-12-11T18:35:44.533-06:00This whole Obama soap opera reminds me of this vid...This whole Obama soap opera reminds me of this video: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiZHDSCpGlU" rel="nofollow">Obama dances with Thalia. </a> Watch MO as he gets back to his seat and tries to talk to her -- watch her reaction at 3:50+..<br /><br />MO was not unhappy about Obama's juvenile behavior because she had her own juvenile reaction to show to the world. She just didn't like him cavorting with the hot, blonde Danish PM and sat there with that scowl on her face. Later, she sat between them and there is a picture where he is kissing her hand, and so on.
