If he used to be Michelle and became Mike would be different.

Michael and Mike....silly to get upset at people who have known you your entire life for calling you an extended version of a nickname, even if you have legally changed it. I have a brother named Andrew. If he suddenly changed his name to Andy legally and wanted to be called that, I'd probably never remember. I've called him Andrew for 30 years and would probably do so for the rest of our lives.

My sister is now my brother, has been for a few years. I still slip up and call him her and by his girl name.

Michelle Obama
I think she seems really intellgent, and would just like to chat with her on multiple topics.

I don't want to get all political, but Michelle Obama has been sm

quoted as saying, "for the first time in my adult life I am proud of my country."

This statement made me wince. I can't help but think of all of the GREAT wives of American Presidents who would never say such things about this great country we call home. For the first time in her adult life? What's so bad about this GREAT country that she isn't proud of?

I don't know. Is it just me or do others agree that we should have a First Lady in the White House who will stand behind her country through thick and thin? What's going to happen if in a year or two something else happens and she is no longer proud of this country? What kind of First Lady will she be then?

I think you should be president if you love America, born and raised in America, are Christian, and have solid convictions, and believe in the constitution.

Michelle's ugly sneakers!

The First Lady could feed quite a few people with what she paid for the sneakers she's wearing.

Wow! $540.-- for a pair of sneakers!

And they are ugly!

Mine cost only $ 50.-- and are much, much nicer!

She should wear them with her 'sleeveless' dresses.

As much as I like O, but she is a no no.

Nah. Michelle is as big a hypocrite as her husband.

Mike Gallagher also gave them ...sm
an hour of his radio show if they stayed away from the Amish funerals in Lancaster. Kudos to him. I tuned in for a few minutes, but could not believe the garbage that was coming out of their mouths,

I remember when Mike did that for the Amish
I listened to the show for a few minutes and just not could believe the stuff that they were spewing.

Mike Hunt reminded me of another
one that is real. Ben Dover. What was his mom thinking?

Mike Rowe--although I don't find him...
to be all that hot. Did you know he used to be an opera singer?

for the love of Mike Rowe?

Not proud of this one - Mike Tyson was a few years behind me in HS

FOR THE LOVE OF MIKE - GIVE HER A BREAK - SM
She's been saying she is GETTING OUT. Why don't you stop beating her up about this!

Radio show host Mike Gallagher...
offered them airtime on his show if they would call off the protest for the VT person's funeral and they agreed. The article I read said this radio host did the same thing when he heard they were going to protest the Amish school shooting funeral. All this Phelps retard wants is to get his "message" out there and so I guess he's going to use the radio to do it now, instead of the funeral.

TV crush -- Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs is So Hot!!!
Oh man, he is so funny and manly and smart. That show is so loaded with sexual innuendo. Can't get enough. Think he is a fine specimen of man... yummy yummy.

Mike Rowe and Daniel Craig are on my "list" too!! LOL! nm
