Couldn’t help it. Just HAD to reblog this post!!!
For eight years, the Republicans gave President Barack Obama and his family grief. I’m not even talking policy here, not talking about ACA, Afghanistan, Gitmo, or any of a thousand other issues. I am talking style, demeanor, etiquette. Just a few examples:

I just had to reblog it too. Great article. You are right – selective memory as well as selective attitude.

I think Michelle Obama should run for president! I know you guys have your issues over there, and Britain, too. The world is going through an interesting time…
