...While forgetting that Dubya, Laura Bush, and Ronald Reagan also appeared.

Right-wing media are falsely suggesting that First Lady Michelle Obama's Academy Awards appearance is unprecedented, ignoring that former presidents and former First Lady Laura Bush have previously participated in the ceremony.

On Sunday, Obama made a surprise appearance via satellite at the 85th Academy Awards where she helped announce the Best Picture Oscar winner. According to a spokesman for Obama, the Academy contacted the first lady about being part of the ceremony.

Washington Post political blogger Jennifer Rubin, however, accused Obama of "feel[ing] entitled" to "intrude" on the ceremony, arguing that Obama's "celebrity appearance" made her seem "small and grasping"

Fox News Radio reporter Todd Starnes likewise wrote on his Twitter feed that Obama "probably felt like she was entitled to upstage" the Oscars and accused the first lady of making the ceremony about her. Breitbart.com called her appearance "obscene, and rather frightening in what it suggests about how low we have fallen as a nation."


Just another example of conservative hypocrisy.

I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

Because Obama done did something what other Presidents did but now we's gonna be arsed to talk about it cos we disagree with his policies.

"Disagree with his policies" has everythingnothing to do with being racist (it does). We honestly don't caredo care about his beliefsskin color.

Ehhh...I'm too sleepy, too distracted, and in too much pain from fucking up my hand to write up a good parody right now. But its news cause Republicans are idiots Take limit as R goes to infinity.

Some people like my dad were thinking the president should just be distant.
