Trashy Celebs

If you know anything about the Trash Talkers you know a) we love to refer to ourselves in the third person and b) we love our country (we just think a lot of her citizens are complete flippin’ idiots). Luckily we don’t encounter many of these morons, with the exception of some family members, but the internets are great for spotting people with opinions of the wrongest kind.

President Obama took in a B-Ball game in DC last week. The reports weren’t about how we have a cool, laid-back pres who chats with and gives high-fives to people watching the game but criticism over this image of Obama enjoying a cold one.

One caller to WWL In New Orleans complained, “People are losing 5, 10, 20 thousand dollars a day in the stock market, and he’s sitting there drinking a beer!” She also said, “It’s insulting… there’s a lot of people suffering.” She insisted President Obama should not publicly have fun during a time of so much pain.

Rule #1 of a recession: No one can have any fun of any kind ever.

Another woman was upset about the courtside presidential beer. “The president is the president 24 hours a day. I don’t think he should drink on the job.”

Really? The man is going to be pres for at least four years. Does that mean he can’t sleep on the job, poo on the job and have relations with the first lady on the job? Whatever people, the days of prohibition and alcoholic presidents are way over. Let the man enjoy a nine dollar bud light like the rest of us.
