Seems currently it's the female on the Obamacare website, but wait, her picture's now been removed. Did she ask for it to be removed? Was it used without her permission? Even the Onion satire site has gone after her. Anyway, the hunt is on for her identity.
Discussion is locked
besides not being a citizen, yet, she's not signed up for Obamacare herself. I also was surprised why she was targeted, since Obama and his groupies are the ones messing this all up. Maybe people thought she was part of the groupies?
or use of it. I would wonder about the picture taking session. I'd also wonder why she'd sign a release for it's use if she'd receive no benefit from it. There's more here, I suspect.
is to pretend you don't make any money from it. Whether that applies to her or not, I don't know. At least it was done on the cheap, for someone, but obviously by those hired to put up the website. Great right now for some to be "friends of Michelle".
figures. I think she may well have been a stock photo-image. The people like Conservative blogger David Burge who tweeted: 'Congrats, vapidly smiling Healthcare.gov splash page stock photo girl! You're now the most despised face on planet Earth.' are the June Bug Larvae of the political and on-line world.

I didn't take her picture off the site either. Perhaps you should instead write to Obama and tell him you "defer to his expertise in hatred, and denigrating public figures". Maybe the Onion will publish that for you, so send it to them too. It's also possible she asked to have her picture removed. The more you try to smear others, you just keep smearing yourself.
.....she probably signed away the usage rights when she had the photo taken, which means she can't ask to have her picture removed ...... well, she can ASK but she can't make them do it.
And if people are frustrated with a website and blaming the model who posed for the photo on it, that's their problem, not hers.
dumb as rocks "Obama Girl", so I suspect some are wondering if she's supposed to become the new dumb as rocks Obama Girl?
Even she got smarter later on.
know Why mind you. I don't know Why anyone would make the jump from stock image to "The most hated woman in America", but I haven't drunk the Koolaid, or Iced Tea that the Tea Partiers are serving.
It never ceases to amaze me the amount of energy and blood pressure the Right Wing can generate over the most trivial issues, like this woman's pleasant face.
Now there is a source of energy that should be explored. Hell, you could light and heat a city the size of Chicago all year long on the outpourings of Rush Limbaugh by himself.

He's such a caring liberal, yes? Anyone without blue eyes is "ethnic" to him? I've not heard Limbaugh nor Tea Party refer to her "ethnicity"? Caring Conservatives would like to know what "vaguely ethnic" by Colbert means?
My guess would be that he was trying to be funny, since that's his job (he said, slapping his forehead that such an explanation is even necessary).
I'll be watching for his blackface humor next. Should be a side splitter, LOL!
