Good Afternoon, Everyone :)
Loving this!
Thanks Malia & Sasha; somebody at the WH reads TOD!
The girls are in full teenage mode. Love it, love it, love it! PBO, FLOTUS, and GMOTUS are doing an OUTSTANDING job of raising those girls!
POTUS thank Malia and Sasha for attending the turkey pardon without complaining. What nice young ladies, to do that for their Dad. The girls look beautiful and to the haters, they did smile. Their lovely Obama smile?
I like the glasses Sasha is wearing.
I was left behind…….oops ;)
I missed it now.
The best line was this one:
“As you may have heard, for month there has been a fierce competition between a bunch of turkeys trying to win their way in the White House.”
So appropriate!!!
President Obama’s got the jokes! Best Line Ever!
Thanks, President Obama!
Nothing but top class in every way’ love Sasha’s glasses!! PBO is beyond compare!!
I did not even recognize Sasha at first! Those girls are lovely, goodhearted young women.
Wow have they grown!
Boom. LMAO.
The bit I loved most was Malia and Sasha cracking up as he started the line, he obviously shared it before they went out!
cue media and the thugs poutrage.
…..and no braces! I don’t even recognize Sasha no more sweet chubby cheeks. I just love this administration and their families.
G’day shipmates. Sorry I’m late……had some therapy and had to read zizii’s amazing post…anyway.

Good Thanksgiving Eve TOD
My Goodness those young ladies are simply stunning. Sasha is the spitting image of her gorgeous mother and Malia is the female version of her handsome father. We are so Blessed to have them as our First Family.
Well, the Aunts have arrived and the Johnny Walker Red and Black is flowing :shock: and these women are preparing to throw down in my kitchen for the next 12 hours. Ain’t nothing but a party!!!
Before I get too busy with the holiday I wanted to send a virtual {{hug}} of gratitude to all of my TOD Family.
Ms Chips and Nerdy Wonka there are no words to express how grateful I am for all the daily coverage of our President as well as keeping us informed and armed with the knowledge to fight the good fight in defense of this administration. Your labor of love here at TOD benefits us more than you can ever know.
I wish everyone a safe and happy holiday!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, Baby O’Donna! I’m thankful for Chips and Nerdy Wonka, as well, along with a bunch of others who - as I do - stop by TOD every day!
You’re a complete and total and utter sweetheart Donna, love ya!!!!
Donna, I am thankful for you and all the work you have done for our nation. You are a hero to me!
Sounds like things are getting real at Casa DonnaDem!!
Very best wishes for a delicious and joyful holiday to you and your family!! Grateful for all your contributions to Dems and to TODville. {{{{DonnaDem}}}}
Someone is Copying Chipsticks?
The First Daughters are the epitome of class and they’re drop dead gorgeous and smart too. Seriously y’all I don’t understand why President Obama can’t stay my President forever. It’s just not fair.
^^^This^^^
But the Count never disappoints.
What the heck - in the spirit of the holiday, I wished him a Happy Thanksgiving on twitter. :)
…..and no braces :)
The ugly wicked bullying harassment continues unchallenged by TX, Gov or the Law Enforcement.
Someone please send to FBI and AG Lynch. This group needs to be sued into nonexistance.
It took me until reading this Tweet from BWD to see the Politics in this.
Good Grief, I can be a total Idiot many times in an hour. Seriously, Nena ;) :?:
Nena. I got it as soon as he said it. There are other passages that speak of the crowded GOP field as well that have subtle meaning. In fact, after POTUS said it, someone laughed timidly, POTUS said something like “You get it, don’t you?”.
Malia got it right away, lol.
Chat on!
