Michelle Obama to release memoir in November

[philipl]

We right now would be at war with Russia.

Thanks, I didn’t know that

I’m not the one who tried to replace school-kids lunches with cardboard.

Just dripping with Catholic virtue chunky monkey… very nice

That is most definitely not true. I am so sorry that you are so afraid.

 

[godisgood77]

I feel the same way. My heart breaks for Melania.

Agreed … would love it if she remedied her situation of manifest public adultery

 

[philipl]

go back and read what was coming out of the Obama administration back in 2015. They were expecting Clinton to be elected and we were ramping up for war. I am not afraid at all, I am 56 so I won’t go to war, my son is 27 and a physicist they don’t put the smartest guys around as ground pounders. Go do some research then come back and talk to me.

If all the First Ladies had done this, we would have had a much different history of the USA.
Also, our last Dem candidate would have probably been called Hillary Rodham

 

[anikins]

I have, which is why I responded to you. You were sold by fear mongering. It was never a real threat.

Meanwhile, our relations with Russia are actually worse than they have been in years because of Trump.

U.S.-Russia relations six months into the Trump administration | Brookings

Donald Trump’s election raised expectations for change in the U.S.-Russia relationship. During the campaign, he had spoken highly of Vladimir Putin and said he would bring relations with Russia out of their post-Cold War nadir. Six months into the Trump administration, however, little has changed.

Its all Trumps fault.

Oh I get it! It’s Opposite Day.

 

[TheAmazingGrace]

There’s no hiding in the bushes for any presidential spouse these days and she has been quite visible. She has shown herself to be a woman of the people of this great country!

Oh, Luigi. Ever the comedian.

BTW, this the same woman who plagiarized the Rickroll.

That’s quite different actually… infidelity inside of a valid marriage is what the Clinton’s have struggled with. The Trump’s do not have a valid marriage and life in a public state of adultery.

Ronald Reagan was also in a public state of adultery and received Holy Communion publicly while in it.

When? I thought he was Disciples of Christ…

His father was Catholic but he chose to follow his mother’s religion which was Disciples of Christ.

He was divorced and remarried. I suppose one could argue that his church allowed divorce and remarriage so he wasn’t in a state of adultery. It’s interesting that his first wife Jane Wyman ended up converting to Catholicism some years after their divorce. She not only converted but became a Dominican lay tertiary and was buried in a nun’s habit.

He and Nancy received Roman Catholic Communion at the funeral of one of their aides in 1983. I remember at the time it was headline news with a picture of him receiving, and there was a lot of controversy about that. It’s mentioned about halfway through this article about Clintons receiving Communion.
