...just when I thought it was safe to go back in the water

Apparently some of the Bush-era asshats stayed around after their Leader left the scene, as evidenced by

Exhibit A (for asshat):

and Exhibit B (for, I dunno, something horribly, terribly insulting that begins with B):

There isn't a word for how furious both of these asshats make me. Because holy shit. These guys make Ann Coulter seem tame (I couldn't even finish watching the second one. I mean, I'm nauseated enough today).

If this is supposed to be comedy, it's not even close to being funny. It's disrespectful and hurtful and just plain MEAN.

...calls the first lady "trash"...

An opinion she is well within her rights to hold. And speak. One that shines a light more on the speaker than the subject, imho.

...and mocks her for talking about her childhood with children.

I don't believe the commentator was mocking the fact that she was talking about her childhood, but rather the commentator was trying to draw attention to Michelle's "talk white" comment. As I said, it was an attempt (and a rather pathetic one) where there wasn't any.

Yeah, there definitely wasn't any controversy in the First Lady's clip. I suppose some people would try to find controversy in the President (ANY President) saying "My Fellow Americans", because OMG, maybe he's putting on a funny fake accent! *headdesk*
