re: #75 doppelganglander

I may be wrong, but I think Obama has refrained from invoking his daughters (much, at least) in the name of plumping his agenda. So in that sense, he hasn’t “opened the door”. I would certainly strongly object to any publicity campaign that used his daughters’ names and/or images in a way that was insulting. But that’s not the case here.

(In this vein, I recall one of Rush Limbaugh’s lowest moments, when he referred to Chelsea Clinton as a “dog in the White House” when she was all of, what, 12 years old, I believe. Truly ignoble.)
