Why Didn't TNGOP Just Photoshop a Burqa and Niqab on Her, Too?

While major Republicans are lynching Barark Obama on one side of the Middle East, bit player Bill "Mohammed Blows" Hobbs is back at his cartoon and character assassination desk--this time for his employers, the Tennessee Republican Party--attacking a woman who is not that far away from being First Lady. Michelle Obama's greatest crime was a feisty tempered bad choice of words, which should be balanced by the point that if she hates America so much, why should she stay married to an American statesman? But we learned a long time ago that TNGOP would rather bludgeon than balance.

If Laura Bush were currently in Michelle Obama's place, I have no doubt that TNGOP would pull a press release out of its sphincter that accused the former librarian of giving kids pornography and of teaching domestic terrorists how to build bombs to blow those kids up. And Bill Hobbs would be encouraging Tennesseans to burn books to observe her visit.

That's TNGOP for you. They hate us for our freedom.
