Obama assailed media's disrespect over first lady 'fat butt' story

Well you see it a little differently from me. To me and many others, it is driven by racism and xenophobia. His father renounced Islam and became an atheist and his father was not part of his life (parents divorced when he was 2, then was killed in car accident). So he has no allegiance to Islam, their argument is mute.

Maybe I'm wrong about her and I'm showing my own biases, but that's how my biases work:
If she were a British immigrant (not all of them, the ones who consider themselves upper class cause they discriminate among themselves too) I would have been inclined to think : racist.

But bear in mind that she's a woman who, having grown up in the former Soviet Block and modeled in Britain and the US must have come across people who looked down their nose on her too. So this changes people a bit.

Plus the only thing good about communism is that it viewed all people as equal, and they were particularly critical of America's racism against Blacks. Cause it made Them look good.

Not really, eastern europe has its own share of tribalism, I would say worse than the western region.

Maybe you're right. I had good experiences with them overall, so maybe I'm generalizing.

But what I can tell you is:
Many immigrants who start by being bigoted, become more flexible in their views and more understanding, after losing their upper status through immigration. Even some South Africans.

And Melania's body language doesn't suggest to me that she's a person who's full of herself and thinks of others as less. On the contrary.

We can agree to disagree on the last statement. She made a big mistake going on the show accusing the president of not being American.

As far as the posters that think I'm a man, no, I've posted pics before on this website, checked down there and I'm pretty sure there's no phallus hanging out. I'm quite the tomboy, though.
 
The "butt" in the title brought him here and there weiner made him s stay.
