Debbie Schlussel: Change Liberals Can't Believe In: Lefties Mad That Palin BabyDaddy Took a Shower; Double Standard on Obama Kid


By Debbie Schlussel

Liberals at the Huffington Post are apoplectic that Bristol Palin BabyDaddy Levi Johnston actually took a shower and shaved. Horror of horrors. And he took the shower after a hockey game several months ago. We can't have that. He should have stayed sweaty, smelly, and gross for months. Right?

The Huff-and-Puffingtons even did a before and after. And whaddya know--it's a conspiracy of makeovers when a guy showers and shaves between participating in a sporting event a long time ago and a Republican convention this week? How dare he waste the water and razors. Talk about petty and small.

Here's the Huffington Post Before/After Comparison of a Candidate's Soon-to-be-Relative:

Malia Obama's Makeover: Hiding the Cornrows

And, as reader Abraham points out, the liberals and media don't seem to be bothered by a far different makeover conducted on Barack Hussein Obama's oldest daughter, 10-year-old Malia, who had cornrows before her Democratic National Convention appearance, and suddenly didn't. Voila--no cornrows. Was this some sort of attempt to make the Obama kids more palatable to White people? Why, the Obama's would never do that, would they?

Um, if you're gonna go to such a ridiculous issue--the looks of a relative of a Presidential or VP candidate--and you're gonna look at makeovers, here's a tip:

If you are going to ignore the new, non-cornrows hairstyle, don't harp on a guy because he engages in basic male sanitary hygiene.

Remember, Arianna Huffington, you and your crew "went there" first. Talk about double standards.
