A More Super Guest?
The Obamas have asked Jennifer Lopez and her husband Marc Anthony to the White House to watch Sunday's Super Bowl with them. Do we need another example of how Obama is out of touch?
Here's another idea. The US national soccer team was to play a "friendly" against the Egyptian soccer team in Cairo on Feb. 9. That game has been cancelled because of recent events. Maybe Obama could invite the teams to witness a game of American "football" with him in the White House. Just sayin'.
Okay, so maybe he wants a break from international events. Wouldn't an invitation to, say, Rutgers defensive tackle Eric LeGrand, who was paralyzed below the neck in a game against Army in October, be more thoughtful?
Okay, so he's from Jersey. Aren't there some folks from Steeler/Packer country who are more deserving of an invite?
Let's nominate some folks.

Re: A More Super Guest?
Who ever imagined such a profoundly frivolous, lazy President? No matter what's happening in America or the world, nothing distracts this wuss from his basketball, golf, vacations and partying with useless celebrities.
Why doesn't he invite Charlie Sheen while he's at it?

Whew! For a minute there I thought he and Michele were going to watch the game in Costa del Sol with Hugo Chavez and Daniel Ortega.
No class, no class at all.
Re: A More Super Guest?
He should give some thought to leaving the majestic confines of the White House, and go watch the game with some real heroes at Walter Reed.

Xiu Xiaodo and Dr. Oscar Elias Biscet. Then turn off the game and learn what the value of freedom is about.

I don't begrudge him partying with whomever he wants. He doesn't have to make the Super Bowl into some political event. Sure, if he wants to invite real friends, that's fine.
I mean, one hopes that a president that enjoys as much leisure time as this one might take the opportunity to meet a genuine American hero or watch it with troops or even -- here's a thought -- with Gabby Giffords' family.
But to watch it with a bunch of Hollywood celebrities? Really, Barack?
Come to think of it, does he have any real friends? If you were to make a list of Obama's known true friends in his adult life, I can think of two: Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers.
Re: A More Super Guest?
This so reminds me of the Clintons pimping out the Lincoln bedroom. Using the presidency for slavish Hollywood butt sniffing.

Dr. Oscar Elias Biscet.
I am thrilled that someone else at Ricochet knows about this man.

C'mon Pseud, give us some credit. I'm guessing more of us know about Dr. Biscet than don't!
George W. Bush knew who he was and, yes, I miss him...every time I wake up to the realization of who our President is now.

Nordlinger schools us all, and well. Nominees for game day ? Brandi Favre, Lil Wayne , Ray Lewis calls the game. Now who were the tax cheats on the first invite ? How does JLo get from Puff Daddy's car tossing pistols out the window to the WH ?
Edited on Feb 3, 2011 at 12:56pmOh that's right , Hollywood loves the dark side of life , the more entries on the rap sheet , the better .

I'd be thrilled if you did a member post on the topic. Nothing torques me more than Canadians who go on winter vacation to Cuba and while sipping drinks complain about how the US treats detainees at Guantanimo.

I forgot about JLo and the PuffDaddy pistol episode! How did the Secret Service let that pass?

Don't you know soccer is the most un-American, un-conservative sport in the whole wide world? By even suggesting this, you have put into question your very credentials as a conservative. I bet you're secretly a big-government, Euro-loving, America-hating liberal, trying to impose this unmanly sport on America. ;-)
