I'm no good at reading lips, so you tell me what she said.



"All this for that flag" ?

"[something, something]... they fold that flag?"

yakeIt is that.
Obambi's "Response" pretty much confirms what he is all about.
And it is NOT the US!!!

All this fuss for that flag?

I do read lips, but its easier to do with some people than others for various reasons. Sometimes a word can have a dozen possible "matches" so facial expressions and context needs to be considered to get an accurate result. "Vacuum" looks like "F*** you", for example. Just saying, the words have to make sense to fit the situation and match up with facial expressions.
Even then, 100% accuracy cannot be expected.

By sight alone it looks like she said, "Where ever they fold that flag", but that doesn't really make sense. Another possibility is: "Whenever they fold that flag." It fits the situation, but it's not a complete sentence.

Knowing they are married and know each other quite intimately it is possible they don't always have to speak in full sentences to express themselves. Did Obama read into her implication that she becomes emotional "whenever they fold that flag"? It's possible since he readily agreed with her statement and turned his head because no further conversation was required. That interpretation would match her facial expression which would be to say "Such a shame so many died."

However, her expression is also the look a person has when they see someone do something incorrectly, such as a breech of etiquette. Was the flag being folded properly? Did they nearly drop the flag at some point? I can't tell from this video.

The Pres readily agreed to her comment as if to say, "Yes, I know."
Knowing their lives are highly structured with itineraries down to the second, it's possible Michelle was reminding him of something he was supposed to do (or something that was supposed to happen) "whenever they fold that flag"? He acknowledged to her that he remembered and she shook her head as if to express disgust with such strict itineraries which demand attention to the smallest detail. I admit, that interpretation is a stretch.

Personally, I think she was expressing a sentiment of emotion which was appropriate to the situation. While I'm not one to defend the Obama's for anything they represent or have done, I don't think anything was said here which would be cause for offense. Just my opinion.

Well it's not like we didn't know they were actually treasonous human beings to begin with anyway.

So they don't like the flag, or the country, or the founding fathers, or the capitalist system, or freedom and liberty. At least they look nice! And after all isn't that what it's really all about?

Just remember that the media did this to all of us and your children too. Remember that, when it's time for payback. Pay them back with interest because they did it deliberately and by the numbers. Don't shed one tear for any of them.

And did ya notice the non-verbal cues - head shaking. Some (all?)of the republican candidates need to get a forensic analysis of the actual wording and especially the body language and challenge him about his lack of patriotrism. If the ostensible CIC can't (or won't) understand the meaning of duty and honor he needs to be called out on it.

"All this for a f*cking flag?"

"All this to fold a flag?"

Another site I hang out on has a few members that know lip readers. Should have something definitive by tonight or tomorrow.

"All this fuss for that flag?"

Followed by a disapproving head shake.

How insensitive! That's no way to talk about men who wear skirts.

MALTHUS

Not sure what she said, but the head and eye gesture afterwards bothers me more. That slight shaking back and forth of the head while slightly, but briefly closing her eyes. One of those "oh good God, you gotta be kidding me" looks...only not quite as animated.

[later] O: "No my dear, all this to perpetuate the military-industrial complex. Without these fascist displays, they'll stop sending their sons and daughters to die and question where their taxes go. Worse, then we'll be without a retirement plan of $50k speeches and laundering Saudi money through our presidential library in Chicago."

"Fold" is obvious upon further review:
"All this to just fold that flag?"

Wow, she is ugly.

I think she said I hope they never find out the truth about us dirty stinking commie bastards.

We the people... said...

I'm not convinced (and FAR be it from me to defend either of those people). I tend to agree with what "2nd Anon" said...

To me it looks like "all of this just for that flag"

OK, my Wifes deaf friend just saw this video and she said it's hard to tell what she is saying, however she believes Michelle is say " All this for a F--ing Flag"

however she did warn me it's hard to read lips when you are not able to detect the emotions.

Not sure about the first part, but I'm pretty sure the last was "for folding a flag." Taken in context, I believe she said "all this for folding a flag."

Mukwah said...

I believe she said, "All this to fold a flag." I had a hard time with the first part, but I'm pretty sure the last part is right. Taken in context with the "flag-folding" ceremony, that would make sense. Taken in context with the Obamas and their senseless attitude towards America and our Flag, it makes even more sense.

She obviously mentioned the flag.

Her face shows complete contempt.

He obviously agrees.

Nothing more need be said about the matter.

Wifey agreed that it's either:

"are they ever gonna fold the flag"

Or

"all this for a fucking flag"

Then one of the women proceeded to defend them - "you know they flew all over...people get tired - they're human, you can't expect them to be perfect..."

My response?

"Bullshit.

They live a life of LUXURY, AT OUR EXPENSE, and it's NOT too much to expect them to PRETEND/DAY to be respectful AT THE F**KING 9-11 CEREMONY. They're not KIDS - HE'S THE _RESIDENT, FOR G*D' S SAKE!! IT'S NOT TOOK MUCH TO ASK HIM TO ACTS LIKE IT!!

Her: "it's THIS kind of crap that makes people think [tea-party-types] are racist."

Me: "RACIST?! OH, FOR SH!+'s SAKE! CAN YOU IMAGINE IF LAURA BUSH OR EVEN JACKIE KENNEDY DID THAT?"

Her: "Um... She's not Laura or Jackie..."

Me: "So... She's not capable of exhibiting the same level of class and DIGNITY??!!"

Her: "well..."

Me: "Don't forget - it's the TEA-PARTY THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE RACIST - FOR EXPECTING A BLACK WOMAN TO LIVE UP TO THE SAME STANDARDS AS WHITE WOMEN - but the leftards are NOT racist FOR SAYING SHE *CAN'T*?!?!"

It was pretty much all downhill from there...

Anon at 11:18, physically she's not half bad. Problem is, the ugly in her comes straight from her soul. Her bitter hatred consumes her so completely its stain is indelible, utterly blotting out her physical attractiveness.

I really pity her kids, because they've done nothing to deserve the inevitable trauma they'll inherit from both Moochelle and Obambi. I truly pray they're strong enough to break the chain of hatred for their country that their parents hold. Sadly, I fear that the parental influence will prove too strong and they won't understand it when mommy and daddy have to pay the penalty for their crimes.

I hope Issa can hurry up and get the goods on them AND Holder. Conspiracy to commit murder, perpetrating MULTIPLE acts of war on our neighbors and some of their other felonies still carry the death penalty, I believe. Maybe we'll get lucky and learn that Moochelle was also involved up to her eyebrows, too.
