Tammy Bruce Calls The Obamas "Trash In The White House"

Tammy Bruce, guest host for Laura Ingram's radio show, had some harsh words for First Lady Michelle Obama.

Discussing the first lady's visit to a Washington D.C. classroom last week, Bruce incredulously recalled Obama's story about wanting to get A's in school and called out her use of a "weird, fake accent."

"That's what he's married to," Bruce said. "...You know what we've got? We've got trash in the White House. Trash is a thing that is colorblind, it can cross all eco-socionomic...categories. You can work on Wall Street, or you can work at the Wal-Mart. Trash, are people who use other people to get things, who patronize others, who consider you bitter and clingy..."

No wonder tammy Bruce doesn't have a "contact" listing at her webpage, or a "send comments here" link anywhere. As is evident from the comments on this link, on other links re: her appearance on Orielly, there are too many negative responses to her kind of pathetic anger to fully appreciate.

"Trash, are people who use other people to get things, who patronize others, who consider you bitter and clingy..." Do Tammy and Bruce not realize that this is an apt description of them? Personally, I am not bothered by Michelle Obama's supposed "weird fake accent" as much as I am the lying, exceedingly petty and self-serving lies that these two morons resort to in order to stir up the empty headed trash that listens to their programing. These are the kinds of people, however, that will encourage the upcoming slaughter of Republicans in the next election. In this way they are doing for the American people what Anita Bryant did for the gays- stir them to action. I look forward VERY MUCH to seeing far fewer Republicans in the Congress and Senate after the next election.

Urg.... whoever this woman is, she's a bane to Americans everywhere... I couldn't even hear anything pass the first two minutes. Just bile.

If she wants to act outraged about something that she doesn't even know anything about, then fine. More power to her.

Tammy Bruce's comment "That's what he's married to," Bruce said. "...You know what we've got? We've got trash in the White House. Trash is a thing that is colorblind, it can cross all eco-socionomic... categories. You can work on Wall Street, or you can work at the Wal-Mart. Trash, are people who use other people to get things, who patronize others, who consider you bitter and clingy..." has given her a few moments of "fame". Bruce is the one who is using people, namely her public, and the popularity of the Obama family, to get that few minutes of "fame". She is also showing her bitter and clingy tendencies by her comments about Michelle Obama. She has had her moment, it is now time to ignore her and move on to more important matters.

Bruces' comment about Michelle Obama, "That's what he's married to," Bruce said. "...You know what we've got? We've got trash in the White House.

Bruce is the one who is using other people, namely her public and the popularity of the Obama Family, to get the thing she wants, that few minutes of "fame". She is also patronizing her public with her bitter and clingy words about Michelle Obama. There is no need to indulge her... she needs to be ignored.

The liberals will declare out lous to the world that they are the party of the intelligence, the wealthy, and most of all the most sucessful party in the work world. I am starting to feel conservatives who are the party in your words are the party of ignorant, useless, trashy, and unemployed are not worthy to be in the presence of the well put together liberals. I think under Obama, Nancy, Barney, Harry there is too much damage to ever take it back and repair it. Let all conservatives go, liberals take the finest and the best of 25 states. Coastlines and densely populated states. Give the most undesirable sates to the republicans we wall off our borders. We do all of our ignorance together in Peace and Privacy. Watch and see how sucessful we can be with our ingunivity our military and our work ethic. The dammage the liberals have done to the future generations isn't anything that republicans/ conservatives want their kids to own and have to learn to live with. Republicans need not lower themselves to discussions or debating with the mind of a liberal. They need to reinvent redesign a whole new society that includes self reliance, small government, hardworking and peace of mind of there own kind. YOU DO NOT NEED US AND WE CERTAINLY DO NOT NEED YOU!!!

I am greatly OFFENDED. This is the United States of AMERICA. Your kind LOST during the civil war. And who's MILITARY? NO. You won't take OUR Military and calim it as yours - NOT OUR Military. My family fought and sacrificed for OUR country - that's right - LIBERALS! They fought and gave their lives - you dunce!
The military voted for OBAMA by over 60%!

I suspect all four Obamas have more than enough class to ignore the remarks of a stand-in for Laura Ingraham, whose claim to 14 minutes of fame has been calling Meghan McCain "plus size" as if that has been a barrier to influence for anybody else, for example Newt Gingrich, Richard Bruce Cheney, Karl Rove and Haley Barbour, or Laura Ingraham and Tammy Bruce's mentor, Rush Limbaugh.

I suppose to a mad person, the rest of the world is mad. No point talking about here feckless attempt at covering up her up RACIST baggage. In the end though, the baggage is hers. So let her stew in her own broth of hatred.

"Tammy", seriously, not "Tammy Bruce"?

Who is this beatch, anyway? How long do we have to put with the Limbaugh's, the Ingrams, the Hannity's and the O'Reilly before someone says "enough"?

And who are these media outlets force-feeding America right wing propaganda? Is this Clear Channel? We need to organize against those companies that advertise on their shows.
Watch or listen....find out who the advertisers are and flood them with phone calls and emails.

Let's start telling them they are a fringe minority and we will no longer allow them the power to destroy this nation and its future!

I would like to ask one question and one alone to you, is this not the same America it was just a few months ago, before the election; when "FREEDOM OF SPEECH" EXISTED?
I think not, it is rapidly changing to LIMIT what each and every one of us not just republican or conservatives but ALLLLLL the united Satets citizens INCLUDING YOURSELF.
Since when cant a news reporter or talk shows discuss what is on their mind? have you so quickly forgot all those remarks against former President Bush who in eight years only had ONE terrorist attack excuse we can no longer refer to it as "Terrorist attack," instead President Obama wants a fancier way to call it what it truly is ----which is still a terrorist attack.

[unitron]

03:48 PM on 03/29/2009

So you're saying that the anthrax letters (case still unsolved) were not a terrorist attack?

[Sugar711]

03:56 PM on 04/07/2009

YES, this is the same America that banned the Dixie Chick because they said that they were embarrassed to call George Bush the President of the United States (Remember that?) I bet he didn't embarrass you at all. How sad! The good things is that this election showed that you are no longer the majority!!!!!

PART II

Republicans are destroying the future of the nation??? STTTOP blamingBUSH now, he is out of there instead see what PRESIDENT OBAMA is planning to do!! DESTROY THIS COUNTRY he is turning this country into SOCIALISM.
Everyone thinks of this health care system he is blinding you with, none of you liberals understand what this means! you are given a number and you are meant to wait till your number finally shows up if u die on the way there TO BAD, if you are going to die but medicine will prolong your life the government will say TO BAD HUNNY THATS THE HAND U ARE DEALT WITH. I come from europe i know what this health care system is i FEAR it, and i feel sorrry for those of you who think this is going to benifit you in any way! I had two family members who both died a sloooow and painful death of cancer who died under the national wide health care(that obama wants) waiting on line in hopes of reaching thier operation date on time before death claimed thier life.


I wish HANNITY, LIMBAUGH, CROWLY, LAVINE, O'RIELLY, INGRAHM ALL OF THE REST WHO ARE DOING THEIR BEST TO SCHOOL YOU KEEPS ON DOING WHAT THEY ARE DOING. AND I HOPE THEY GET THE CHANCE TO READ THIS !

Your ignorance is off the chart. You gladly want us to ignore what has happened over the past 16 years and the repurcussions that we are currently feeling. But you plead for us to pay attention to something you've determined The President is "PLANNING" to do to your precious ideals. And you want to instill fear about something you "THINK" is going to happen.

You need to free your mind and get your information from someone (and something) other than the hatemongers you admire. Does it not bother you that they never speak on anything positive and of good report?

"Of all they getting, get thyself some understanding". You need it. Liddle.

Bruce is a prime example of what happens when thoughtful people cross the line into the terrain of "populist"-angry-entitled-male based conservatism. I included the term 'populist' because conservatives would like us to believe that they are the 'party of the people'. They are not and have not been for a VERY long time.

For each former liberal who has joined the flailing conservative movement: Cogent thinkers have become mindless hate-spewing mouthpieces. People who were once filled with compassion have become dissociated from the world outside of their own. Power matters more than solving problems.

I'm horrified at what's happened to Bruce, Miller, and sadly, the late Ron Silver. Bush was unhealthy for our country's standing in the world and our economy, and the liberal-to-conservatives he created are equally troubling given their negative impact on cultural civility. There is no such thing as polite political discourse with this group.

In this case, ignorance truly is bliss. I'd prefer NOT knowing what she says in the future. I think it's important that it's shared, and understand why HuffPo posted her comments. I'm just choosing not to read her statements in the future.

Well, it's obvious we have trash on the airwaves. Perhaps she should take a closer look in the mirror and at some of the 'leaders' in the GOP before she opens her mouth again about our first family.

Tammy must have been looking in the mirror when she uttered those words. Another sore right wing looooooser. They're getting creative on how they make RACIST remarks without coming right out and saying it. More code words for the right. How apropo since they are now the minority.

She got what she wanted our attention. Why do Republicans have to stoop so low?

[ObjectiveRealist]

03:54 PM on 03/27/2009

To distract us from how they waste our money when they can get their trashy, grubby mitts on it.

They are not stooping! I was watching CNN Saturday and the reporter was in a diner in Michigan speaking with 2 female and 1 male republican, asking how Pres. Obama & Michelle were doing in Europe. One of the females said "At least he is articulate and is not embarrassing us" (Did she mean like George Bush often did?) Also, she would like to see Sarah Palin run for Pres. because she so fresh! (I thought she was worried about being embarrassed) Is this person on drugs? You could just see the hate spewing out. She is in Michigan where the economy is really tanking and she is spewing hate! No, they are not stooping. They would have to come up to stoop.
