Now that Malia has asked about "the hole" - what other poignant questions should she be asking?

[bondwooley]

From an online political satire poll:

President Obama has been accused of lacking Bill Clinton's ability to "feel your pain". But he nevertheless found a way to connect with people's hearts when he told the press last week that <...> Malia had asked him, "Did you plug the hole yet, daddy?"

<...>Alas, Obama hasn't stopped the disastrous BP oil spill. But while we're waiting, perhaps Malia wouldn't mind taking her adorableness on the road, and ask some other people some important questions.

Kids do have a way of cutting through grown-ups' B.S. What other questions would you like to see a kid with access to politicians asking?

3. When I first heard that she asked about plugging the hole...

... my first thought was that she was referring to Glenn Beck's mouth...

4. Don't you just wish she really would ask! ;) nt

5. Back off...his children are off the table.

6. I always admired that way Bill & Hill...

...refused to ever let Chelsea be put in the middle of things. But, to be fair, Obama used Malia himself, and it did score him some (much-needed!) points. But I thought the poll was hilarious anyway. W.'s "dead or alive" quote is quite morbidly funny in hindsight.

11. A couple points ...

(a) No, it's not fair to drag the young children of politicians into the lion's den,
(b) It was Obama, and no one else, who mentioned his dialog with Malia and put her in the spotlight
(c) I don't think there's anything on this page that maligns or makes fun of Malia

13. He brought her into it.

Using one's kid to score a political point, then insisting everybody else pretend said kid does not exist (except when being adorable in photo ops) isn't just shitty behavior when Sarah Palin does it.

14. I wholeheartedly agree. n/t

10. Daddy, did you put the bad men who wrecked the gulf in jail yet?

[bondwooley]

15. Good one - and the more images I see from the Gulf ...

... The more persuaded I am that that this boils down to criminal negligence.
