The virtue of courage is a prerequisite for the practice of all other virtues, because otherwise one is virtuous only when virtue has no cost. There are times when something needs to be done, and yet we know that if we step up and do this needful thing, we will pay a heavy personal price. -C.S. Lewis |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 48102547 United States01/07/2014 06:41 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | “I Don’t Think It’s Rude, But…” Etiquette Experts Perplexed Over First Lady’s Party Plans Quoting: Ms. Superduper (snippets thereof) “I don’t think it’s rude, but I do think it’s a little ... different than what people are used to. How’s that for putting it delicately?” joked Lizzie Post, great-great-granddaughter of Emily Post and co-author of “Great Get-Togethers: Casual Gatherings and Elegant Parties at Home.” “My advice to people would be not to put ‘eat before you come’ on an invite,” Post said. “And this is not a specific etiquette thing. To me it just sounds so instructive. I’m still in the camp of letting them know what will be served at the party instead of what they should do.” From: [link to www.washingtonpost.com] I can't believe I'm defending her, but my first impression is that she's aware of the scrutiny over how much this is already costing us taxpayers. Maybe, somewhere deep inside, she's being a frugal First Lady? Oh dear you don't actually believe that do you? The reason for the ill mannered wording is because works best for Michelle. |

Snacks? Like in... GMO'd Goldfish, pretzels, and Cheez Its? IMO the word 'snacks" should have no place in a formal 50th birthday invitation and even worse for the First Lady's! You are the creator of your own master plan... Make it a good one. Wake the fuk up and be ready...

As I said before, I could not find any evidence online that Jackie ever had a birthday party for herself - only the President, her husband. Quoting: Ms. Superduper Then I found some unpromulgated manners for food only on the invitation: “My advice to people would be not to put ‘eat before you come’ on an invite,” Post said. Costs too much?  LMAO OMG that's borderline obscene.

When it comes to making people feel welcome we give them great music, a well-stocked bar, and excellent food — and you do it abundantly.” [link to www.theblaze.com] (And if you click on the above, you can even see MO in workout gear and a weight! Yay!) Asking people to eat before they come is really rude. My sister in laws wedding invitations said something like "light food" GHETTO as hell. |
