      <![CDATA[Folks, you're really not getting the "problem" comment. The actual title of the Norman Rockwell painting is "The Problem We All Live With" - i.e., bigotry. I believe the original poster is simply making an allusion to the title. He is not saying little Sasha Obama is a "problem. Sheesh.

      <![CDATA[Ha ha you naive liberals keep posting insults about "white racist rednecks".  Meanwhile, at least 93% of all blacks killed in the USA every year are killed by OTHER BLACKS.  Also, "crime-age" black males make up less than 6% of the US population but commit over 52% of all murders and over 34% of all rapes in our country every year.<br />
<br />
But keep on making cracks about the myth of how all those "white rednecks" are keeping a buhrutha down!!!!   <br />
<br />
Blacks don't need the KKK or white racists to keep them down, they do a great job of that all by themselves.

      <![CDATA[I think if there is any "problem" with Sasha Obama, it's that she seemed a little too excited about getting so much attention during the campaign, especially during the convention. Once she had the microphone, she was off and running, and even her dad was having a hard time getting a word in edge-wise. Her sister seems much more chill and reserved. Hopefully being in the spotlight won't fuck her up too much.

      <![CDATA[@16.  Admittedly, Obama's stance on school vouchers has wavered a bit in the past few years (from "potentially open to" to "opposed to"), but he is definitely in favor of charter schools, which do offer school choice to those other "cute little black girls".   <br />
<br />
I think it's possible to be for school choice (and other types of education reform that Democrats traditionally haven't supported), but to not think that vouchers are the best way to do that.

Yet the circumstances are light-years apart; that little girl in the Rockwell painting could never have so much as set foot in the White House, where Sasha Obama is going to be living. Is this hard to understand?
