“Fellow Washingtonians: do NOT buy the Post today! If you subscribe, cancel today. What an insult to our community for the Post to publish an article by someone with absolutely no claim to expertise in this area, not to mention any other.”

“sadly, Desiree Rogers is responsible for an underlying tackiness to the State Dinner. She is responsible for the guest list: no Supreme Court justice, no high tech business persons, no scholars or writers, etc. Then she headed a table. And her dress.

Desiree is in the wrong position.”

duze replied on Dec 05, 2009 at 16:24:51

“Definately, she is way to visible and full of herself. During the first months of the Obama Administration, the First Lady was giving a speech and Rogers was standing slightly in the background watching her every word. She should have not been visible at all. To me she's too close in matters that really don't concern her.
Each division of the White House is on a need to know basis. Per the State Dinner. she needed to know where her staff was and what they were doing. She's not a fashion designer, gossip columnist, or best friend. She's the Social Secretary and should stay in the background and do her job.”

AnnfromCA replied on Dec 05, 2009 at 13:34:57

“That is the role of the First Lady. LOL*

Rogers simply implements and assists.

Quit dodging this obvious issue.”

“The Guest List was accurate - the Secret Service was inaccurate - end of story.”

“you're a beech. If I was married to you, I think I'd make the choice to save the son just because you're you.

With that said, the man in the story did the right thing. Instead of potentially three people dying, only one did. And the dog, presumably.”

ellawensmom replied on Nov 30, 2009 at 14:06:35

“I thought about that as I was reading this story. Will she be angry that he saved her instead of their son. However, it looks like he made the attempt for the son first, and only when he couldn't get to him did he go to save his wife. It's tragic that he was put into this situation. i think this would be my worst nightmare...having to choose between family members, or worse, between two of my children.”

TraceyES replied on Nov 30, 2009 at 13:58:30

“I agree. I would always hope my husband would save our child over me. It does not make me (or the previous commenter) horrible, it makes us loving parents.”
