Underpants -- if your child is a boy, and you do this to him

[CatWoman]

I will personally kick your ass myself.



Please don't let that child go to school dressed like that.

[Fiona]

1. I wish people wouldn't pick on the kids

they look adorable. It's not school clothing - it's for the White House. I think it's cute. I've seen kids dressed like that for special occasions at church and the like - there's nothing wrong with it.

[CatWoman]

4. I have nothing against the kid

his mother, however, needs the shit kicked out of her for that clownish outfit.

Read and re-read my thread title.

I'm not picking on the child.

I'm picking on that HIDEOUS outfit.

don't like it?

tough shit.

and while I'm at it, the girl is dressed like she's about to pose for a box of salt.

Did these people get locked in a time warp?

[Misunderestimator]

48. LOL!

As I said earlier today, she must think she's Jackie Kennedy in the 60s.

[roguevalley]

52. it reminds me, Catwoman, of the days when they used to raise boys

as girls until they were five.

[CatWoman]

64. seriously

the only thing missing are the curly locks

[KitchenWitch]

72. Long pants

that suit coat with short pants is so 1900s and looks ridiculous.

[CanuckAmok]

73. Oh, so you don't like salt, huh? Too biblical for you?

...

[otohara]

5. Agreed - Leave Em Alone

I remember how hateful GOP was towards Chelsea.

[CatWoman]

6. I reserve the right to point out how ridiculous the kid is dressed

and how out of sync his mother is for dressing him like that.

I don't give a shit which party they belong to.

[Fiona]

21. ok

then I wish people would leave the wife out of it, too.

I've seen plenty of kids wearing such outfits at Easter and the like. A trip to the White House is an appropriate occasion to dress the kids up.

As I said, they look adorable. It's petty to pick on such a thing.

[CatWoman]

22. one man's "pettiness"

is another man's "pleasure".

Since you brought up the wife, she looks like a fucking moron, too.

plus, I sure as fuck don't recall asking for your opinion.

one's man's opinion is another man's ass. both can be full of shit.

[Fiona]

33. No

you didn't ask for my opinion.

If other opinions bother you so much, perhaps you can set up your own private political discussion forum? Just a thought.

[CatWoman]

37. It's not so much your opinion that bothers me

it's your approval for tacky fashion.

and the fact that you're trying to cram it down my throat.

[Fiona]

42. Was your mother

frightened by a pair of saddle-shoes while carrying you? I don't understand all the aggression.

[CatWoman]

45. and I don't understand yours

I made an observation. you made an observation. but you didn't stop there -- you continued to deride me for mine, and tried to put words in my mouth as well.

I disagree with people all the time. People disagree with me all the time.

but there comes a point where you need to walk away. guess what?

I've reached that point.

to answer your question: my mother was frightened by an opinionated asshole who tried to cram her opinion down my mom's throat.

[Fiona]

58. serious aggression issues...

all over a little kid's suit. Very very funny. You have a fantastic day.

[donheld]

61. Fiona you are just putting up a fuss because

you are trying to escape the 700 club. 2 more to go.

[Fiona]

65. lol

I didn't even notice! Thanks for pointing it out.

[CatWoman]

66. serious intrusive issues

as I swore, I was speaking directly to Underpants.

why don't you join the other goody-two shoes on the main thread?

and top of the evening to you

[friesianrider]

56. HAhahahhaha!

CatWoman, you kick ass.

And are COMPLETELY dead-on about this twit and the plain SCARY way she has her brats dressed up. They even look like pain in the ass anklebiters.

[proud2BlibKansan]

51. I agree with you

The kids look like twits. When they grow up and are reminded of the time they met the president, they will remember how stupid they looked.

[fob]

24. Catwoman ain't picking on the kids, she's take a shot at stepford mom

and helmut-hair dad.

If I say, Apparently the kids are adopted, so what's so wrong with these fundies in the sex department? Are they so religio-nutty that they can't even bring themselves to perform the missionary position? Are they typical republicks in that regard that they have hyper-hangups about sex/sexuality?

That's not a shot at the kids, in fact the kids look normal, one is quiet and sticking by mom and one is dancing his arse off! I do however expect the boy will get an in depth lesson into the evils of dancing including but not limited to a visit from john asskroft and the first 1 hour of "Dirty Dancing".

Pre-edit: I should be ashamed of the "attack" above but these fuckers have no shame and I'm all out of patience for the bush*it.

[Misunderestimator]

50. No one's picking on the kids... just the outlandish conservative clothes

from the mid-20th century! It certainly made me laugh out loud when I first saw that picture!

[Fiona]

59. like a seersucker suit...

whoops! I guess that's OK.

It's silly to pick on the kids, OR their clothing.

[Misunderestimator]

60. At least the pants are long enough.... but yeah... the seersucker is silly

[CatWoman]

63. It's good enough for Matlock and The Night Stalker

however, if they wore shorts instead of long pants, that would be a whole different ball of wax.

[Hugin]

2. Saddle shoes?

Didn't they like stop making those in the '50s?

Give the boy some FLIP-FLOPS!

[CatWoman]

29. saddle shoes enjoyed an update/reemergence in the 80's

[Hugin]

31. Don't you mean regurgance?

Is that a typo?

[CatWoman]

35. no

and actually, I had a couple pairs.

Hey -- IT WAS THE 80's!!!!

[Hugin]

38. I don't *ever* remember them being "cool".

I do distinctly remember burying a pair in the back yard
in the late '60s.

I *always* wore boots.

[noonwitch]

75. I wore saddle shoes a lot as a kid in the 60s and 70s

"Good support for growing feet".

Considering the godawful orthopedic shoes I had to wear for a couple of years when I was in elementary school, I was thrilled to wear saddle shoes again.

[intheflow]

3. Is that kid dancing?

Or acting out? I mean, if that's what l'il georgie had endure, no wonder he turned into a sociopath.

[CatWoman]

8. kids dance. that's what they do.

I don't have a problem with him dancing.

I do have a problem with that ridiculous getup.

[name not needed]

7. is it me or does the kid look like he's doing the robot?

[AverageJoe]

10. Don't know about this kid

But my two year old loves to sing "Mr. Roboto."

Domo, domo!

[fob]

Mine too! I say, "hey lil fob, Dori origato Mr Roboto" and lifob comes

back with DOMO DOMO! It's fun!

[WeRQ4U]

9. I think they look cute.

Despite the fact that they all look like a color scene from "Pleasentville"

[WCGreen]

11. In the WH letting a kid run around like that is just awful.....

The parents need to be smacked....

[Hugin]

13. Been in the grocery thread... eh?

Yup! Smacked I say!

[WCGreen]

17. Parents have no control over htere kids these days....

I live in a sea of republicans and the kids are definatly in charge.....

I can't stand it....

These kids are raising themselves and no one says anything about child abuse or bad parenting cause they got big bucks......

[Telly Savalas]

69. The nation kicked them out of the White House in '92...

what more do you want?

[Fenris]

12. Is that a periwinkle suit? With short pants? And saddle shoes?

Doesn't that qualify as some form of child abuse?

[Hugin]

14. Ever seen what they did to the designer guy in Beetle Juice?

Yup, pastel blue leisure suit.

[CatWoman]

16. LOLOLOL

Leave it to you!!

[Fenris]

19. I'd have less of a problem with it if he was wearing long pants.

I've never understood why so many boys suits come with short pants. Are children too messy to handle more fabric?

He's a great dancer, though.

[Obamarama]

15. OMG...The Roberts Clan look like characters out of Fun With Dick and Jane

It looks like they're going on a friggin' circa 1959 Easter egg hunt the way they're dressed.

[JimmyJazz]

18. WTF? It's 1956 again and NO ONE TOLD ME!

[Fenris]

20. Welcome to the era of Retro Government!

[matcom]

23. could be MUCH worse!

SOMEWHERE there is a pic of me around that age wearing Lederhosen!!

[Fenris]

26. Poor tiny German matcom.

The worst my parents ever did was dress me in whale overalls.

[Hugin]

30. No pink bunny suit?

With the footies?

Dayum, you haven't lived!

[Misunderestimator]

54. LOL... Poor tiny German matcom!!

[CatWoman]

27. POST IT

POST IT, DAMMIT!!!!

[matcom]

32. what's it worth to you

[CatWoman]

36. I'll give you a shiny new nickle

[matcom]

39. have to get it from my mother......BUT...

Mrs Matcom found a baby pic that she is threatening to post tomorrow

stay tuned!

[Hugin]

40. PM me when it goes up.

Mmmkay?

[MuseRider]

25. CatWoman

I will join you. My MIL sent that kind of shit to my boys, I gave it all away although I bet no one picked those particular things out to take home. At least he has a real collar, hers always had Peter Pan collars.

[CatWoman]

28. OH!!!

you poor dear!!!



a peter pan collar???? even more!!

[Iris]

34. I'm about as un stepford wife as you can get, but I'd dress my kid in that

I have no desire to dress a child in mini-me Gap style.

[CatWoman]

41. LOLOL

Ron Reagan is picking on that horrendous outfit now.

How fun putting it on your kid.

[Iris]

46. That's ok because I make fun of kids whose parents dress them in stupid

t-shirts and hats and shorts that make their bellies stick out like fat old men.

[Iris]

43. dupe

[barb162]

44. I think mom needs white gloves to complete her 1950s look

[Hugin]

49. What I *really* wanna know is...

Where's the 0.5 child?

Gotta be around there somewhere?

[proud2BlibKansan]

47. I want to know why this guy is 50 years old

and has kids this young. I know it's catty, but come on, I am 51 and my kids are grown. Some folks our age are grandparents already.

[CatWoman]

53. I think he was frozen in 1955

and was thawed out about 8 years ago.

that would explain a lot -- especially those atrocious outfits on those kids.

[proud2BlibKansan]

55. No wonder that little boy was acting out

If my mother dressed me up like that, I'd act a fool too.

[Hugin]

57. Naw, the family is from "Rent-co(tm)"

There was a special this week.

Need to update their catalog tho...

[Burma Jones]

62. Well, I am 45 and my kids are 7 and 5

I didn't get married until I was 35 - I just skipped the whole First Marriage and Married my second wife first. Started having kids when I was 38 and the wife was 27. Best thing I ever done. Got to establish a career, get a Master's Degree, work in the arts and really screw around. My wife got to work in theatre and the two of us got four years together before we took on the responsibility of kids. Now, I work at home mostly and I was able to take a couple of years off and get a Doctorate when my Daughter was born so both Parents were home. There are many many good reasons to have your children later in life.

[Sequoia]

67. Are you serious?

Bing Crosby had kids at an old age and so did awful playboy Warren Beatty. And what about John Edwards, eh? My kid's mothers are old enough to be my kid and their grandmothers are my age. Late bloomers.

[proud2BlibKansan]

74. John Edwards had kids when he was much younger.

He didn't wait until he was in his 40s to start his family. And I am not criticizing that, I just find it odd.

[Dukkha]

68. It's Angus Young!

"Dirty Deeds! Done Dirt Cheap!"
"YEAH!"

[nickgutierrez]

70. I would help.

That poor, poor kid.

[Writer]

71. We MUST look like Easter eggs, we MUST we MUST we MUST

Good little Christians dress in pastels during the summer. Didn't you know that?

[underpants]

76. HAHAHA Sorry I missed this thread until now

Uh no way. I showed my wife the picks last night and she thought it was hilarious.

While we were watching the announcement she blurted out "Who is THAT in the pink?"

We looked at each other and we started laughing. "Stepford" was the next word out of her mouth.

[Roland99]

77. My first thought was: John-John
