I think she’s talking about the garden and the State Dinner and, well, I don’t know.
I kind of don’t give a crap.
I mean, that BELT. Much like looking directly at Medusa, you may want to be careful when looking straight at it. I believe it could actually cause spontaneous seizures.
Isn’t the ugly black lady having fun spending all your tax money on her ugly clothes to cover her misshapen body!
So THIS is what Sarah and others were talking about. Hey DM – could you please lay off your prejudicial comments? We’re talking about hideous belt choices, not the color of our First Lady’s skin. We like to mock, but there’s no reason whatsoever to bring up race in this post. Thanks.
You know, I saw her from the neck up on the news and thought about the belt…
Good to see it’s there.
No meat on the menu, btw. In honor of the Indian Prime Minister.
Wow, she says “uh” almost as much as her husband.
Wouldn’t you feel silly, though, if it turned out that these belts were actually utility belts and were never intended to be fashionable? They have to be broad in order to hold a grappling hook, the Obamarang, and other Obama-themed gadgets.
And yeah, DM, what the hell? Was this a clumsy attempt at trolling or do you really agree with what you wrote? I don’t have anything to add to Mockarena’s response to the gratuitous introduction of race into this, but I am additionally having trouble identifying a part of your sentence that is accurate. (The accuracy is pretty much limited to the background assumptions of the facts that she actually is a woman, actually is black, and actually does exist.) Are you a caricature or a person?
Someone needs to buy her a gift card to a store *other* than J.Crew (the sweater/belt combo is getting very old) and/or introduce her to a book of Jackie O. fashions.
Wait…is she NOT black? What is wrong with saying she is black…are you all color blind? Is she NOT black?
Tell me what color she is and I’ll not call her black.
Mock, I brought up race? Didn’t you bring up race by posting this picture and making rude comments about the first ladies attire? Did you post it because she is black? We already know she is a woman; she wears clothes so why did you post it? To mock a black woman? Because ALL women wear clothes so why point out what she is wearing? Why didn’t you post pictures of white people with weird outfits on? Why did you only post a black woman?
Am I not politically correct for you all? How is it that you can all slam people for their thoughts, their looks, their style, their actions, but one can’t call a black lady black? How ridiculous is that?
I didn’t say I HATE her mock like you do about stars. What is worse…saying right out that you “HATE” someone for their looks or their actions or calling a black person black?
Ask yourselves why you can make crude comments and it’s ok. Why you can HATE others for whatever reason. I didn’t say I “Hated” her LIKE YOU DO MOCK ABOUT STARS, I called her black. She IS BLACK!
I expect you all to stop going to themockdock.com as mock makes fun of those less attractive then her. You leave terrible comments about peoples misfortunes with their looks, their size, their actions. WHY is that ok? You call people land beast and think that is ok. WHY?
I’ll say it again…calling a black person black I thought was normal. But calling a large person land beast is HATEFUL! Making fun of one’s looks is cruel. I could go on and on with the rude remarks mock that you make about others. But I guess its ok for you to say them as your perfect. Right?
I see now that it’s ok to slam people but only if YOU all think the slamming is ok. I realized today that I was trying to be friends with some of you and fell into the mocking of less fortune people on some of my other posts. I was like a kid in school trying to hang out with the kids who thought they were too cool for everyone else and only had ridicule for others. Not anymore. You all keep thinking how PERFECT you all are and how anything YOU say is OK.
Of course FLOTUS is black. But that, just like the fact that 25 people who cut in front of you in a line (see Sarah Palin book signing comment) were black is IRRELEVANT. Other commenters here have complained that you have a tendency to introduce race into conversations where it has no place, and I saw it here, (you can see for yourself I tried to justify your comments to the extent I could on that Sarah Palin post) and so I’m asking you to please refrain from showing your prejudices. That’s all.
The Mock Dock, if you weren’t already able to tell from the name, was created to tease and poke fun and mock celebrities and other odd characters. Am I hard on people who let themselves become total landbeasts? Sure. But you’ll be hard pressed to find me making fun of someone over the color of their skin. In fact, don’t bother looking – I’ll just tell you right now it hasn’t happened, and it won’t.
Perhaps you genuinely don’t see the difference between Daisy calling the FLOTUS’ belt hideous and you, saying about a black person on a subway at The Mock Dock, that “all those people look the same to me.” If you CAN’T see the difference, then your prejudices run deeper than I had even imagined.
You asked, “Mock – didn’t you bring up race by posting this picture and making fun of the first lady’s attire?” Um…no. Nowhere in Daisy’s post was race referred to, just like it wasn’t referred to in the post about Katie Couric looking ridiculous dancing. Should we expect you all to chime in there and say, “Look at the ugly white woman dancing!” Do you understand now that race was only mentioned by YOU? If Laura Bush were wearing this belt, Daisy would have mocked it. Because IT’S A HIDEOUS BELT. Race has nothing to do with it.
I can’t speak for anyone else, but I know I’m not perfect, and never claimed to be. But I’m also not the only one here who your comment rubbed wrong. I simply asked you to check your prejudices at the door, and don’t think that’s really too much to ask.
It’s not just the belt. The whole outfit is hideous. There’s just way too much going on.
No, DM, you brought up race. Posting a picture and commenting on the subject’s weird belts does not itself introduce that person’s race as a topic of discussion. Everyone has a race — do you think it is possible to post a picture of anyone (or comment on anyone’s choice of belts) without bringing race into it?
I don’t care what race she is, but she seems to. Regardless the belts are ugly. Maybe she wears them to keep Obama in line. Insert sound of whip cracking at any point.
I just noticed that “World Wrestling Federation” is one of the tags for this post.
Come on, Daisy and Mock — get with it. It’s World Wrestling ENTERTAINMENT, now.
Come on! “Obamarang” — nobody??? Tough crowd.
