Safe to say that Elizabeth Lauten does not like Malia and Sasha Obama all that much.
Or maybe she likes them but she does not like their style. Or the faces they make during one of the most ridiculous of American holiday traditions (it s a low bar.) Or their family specifically the role their parents provide in being role models. Or the apparent lack of class and respect.
Or the irritating way that they act like teenage girls. As if they are actually 13 year old and 16 year old teenage girls.
At the annual Thanksgiving pardoning of a turkey performed by Barack Obama The Most Powerful Man in the Free World (who has nothing better to do with his time than participate in this ceremony of officially pardoning a bird) the Obama daughters dutifully showed up for the cameras to watch as their Dad made terrible Dad jokes on national television.

They smiled and nodded and laughed awkwardly as if they were teenage kids who would rather be ANYWHERE but front and center on television as an entire nation watched their Dad make terrible Dad jokes.
After seeing a similar photo to the one above Elizabeth Lauten the communications director for Rep. Stephen Fincher (R Tenn.) took to her own Facebook to share her thoughts on fashion and demeanor of the Obama girls
Dear Sasha and Malia I get you re both in those awful teen years but you re a part of the First Family try showing a little class. At least respect the part you play. Then again your mother and father don t respect their positions very much or the nation for that matter so I m guessing you re coming up a little short in the good role model department. Nevertheless stretch yourself. Rise to the occasion. Act like being in the White House matters to you. Dress like you deserve respect not a spot at a bar. And certainly don t make faces during televised public events.
Just to recap anyone else who is as completely baffled how a political communications director could commit such an offensive social networking faux pas The Obama girls showed up for an completely boring and useless press event endure the silly parental embarrassment most of us only have to endure over the family dinner table and they wore outfits. That are apparently scandalous.
So scandalous in fact that Elizabeth Lauten felt compelled to turn her personal Facebook into a Capital Hill Burn Book.
