        A picture paints a thousand words, but apparently that rule isn't commutative. At least not for Tammy.

        Abandon hope, all ye who seek reality through Tammys words, lest ye find yourselves living in an Edvard Munch interpretation of a Dr. Seuss book.

          Yeah, Tammy Bruce is at best on about the third string of right-wing media shills. Michelle Obama on the other hand is a Harvard Law graduate, admired and respected the world over. So I'm willing to guess who it is who really has confidence and self-esteem issues.

      Wow...lies, lies, lies, lies.
      I just had shivers... "President Palin????"

      Wow this woman is certifiable.

      Did she look at the video... there is nothing to this.
      Even Fox News took the picture off the website.

      I have nothing but disgust and contempt for Tammy Bruce.
      You're running with a story that is not a story... you are the only one who who thinks that the picture is ogling...

      Your tirade is moronic and lame. You are making a fool of yourself and you are an embarrassment.

      Does Bruce ever get tired of trying to psychoanalyse people she's never met? Even if she a qualified psychologist I'm pretty sure she'd need to actually meet and talk to someone before she could diagnose all these disorders she seems to see.

      Sixteen years old? I thought she was 17? Maybe she's really 14, and Sarah Palin's daughter?

      President Palin?! Oh!

      Oh, my bad. Tammy Bruce doesn't live in the real world. Too bad this is where her radio show is heard.

      "Here's the issue" = warning, opinion unsupported by fact ahead!

      She says that this is a pattern of behavior on President Obama's part, as though the video hadn't made the photo a lie, and as though Ms. Bruce has hours and hours of our President ogling young girls. Ms. Bruce, do you remember the girls playing volleyball that Bush ogled? How was that different, exactly?

      Well, I've seen the still photo and the actual video and its plain to see that Obama was not "ogling" the girl. Yes, the still looks like he is, but any still from a video can be used to show whats not really happening. Tammy Bruce, you basically accused the President of sexual abuse of a minor and even hinted at incest. I respect views that have at least a shred of integrity and honesty, but your rant was so over the top and outrageous, it was actually cringe worthy and sad. Why not come clean and admit the real reason you hate the Obamas is because they are black. Roy Cohn will never die as long as you are walking the earth..

      What an awful disgusting woman. Not only is she pileing this debunked propaganda down the throats of whatever psycotic people listen to her show, but then she proves just how evil and hateful she really is by implying things like infidelity is accepted in France and that the rest of the world is "a crack house".

      But I must give credit where credit is due. President Palin would never check out young people because never will there be a "President Palin".

      Are Ms. Bruce's advertisers aware of her derogatory and borderline rascist remarks?

      Who is Ms. Bruce to say that Michelle can't spend her money a certain way? If she has the money to buy an expensive purse or expensive shoes, then it is her right to do so. As for talking about every expression that has passed on Mrs. Obama's face, that is ridiculous. Left wing critics never did that to Laura Bush and Michelle shouldn't have to endure that either.

      Media Matters, you need to send these clips to the companies that advertise on Bruce's show. If companies will pull advertisements from Savage's show, then they certaintly will pull from this disgusting show as well.

      Tammy Bruce is a really nasty, ill-tempered excuse for a human being. I think she is even worse than Glenn or Michael Savage! Yuck. Her outrage at adults looking at teenage girls in the wrong way may be based on personal memory. At 17, she was sexually involved with 39 year old Brenda Benet and was due at the house for lunch when Brenda killed herself.

        Wait, so you're saying that the late Ms. Benet killed herself rather than have lunch with Tammy Bruce? Seems a little extreme, but maybe her place didn't have a window or back door.

          Brenda Benet was the ex-wife of Bill Bixby. She killed herself in the early 80's when everything seemed to be going wrong in her world. She had left Bill "Courtship of Eddie's Father" Bixby, her young son choked to death because of a weird allergic reaction and her affair with then 17-year old Tammy had just ended, not to mention that she was playing the resident witch/mantrap on "Days of Our Lives" at the time was also involved in a choking death on the show. She just lost it, went into the bathroom and blew her brains out. Because of the low caliber, she only chipped a tooth, no blood on the floor.

          Palin would never glance at anyone's rear? Oh no, is this the same Sarah Palin that was shown in a picture (she was younger then) wearing a shirt that said "flat broke but not flat busted"? What makes Palin so wonderful, she quit on on the voters of Alaska and why does her husband hate America?

          Many of you have already said it but Tammy Bruce is just a vile woman and she does remind me of a female version of Savage. I hear her late in the evening some times on a local AM station and all she does is spew hate and call names.

      How much lower can these hate spewing taking heads go? After seeing the picture I thought okay, he glanced at a young woman's butt, what male (me included) hasn't? I then watched the video and see now that it's B.S even though Fox is going to keep running with it.

      With the 24-hour news cycle in place, jumping to conclusions apparently is the only way that AM radio can exist anymore.

      Tammy ought to know the old saying that "assuming makes an ass out of you and me". A picture is worth a thousand words, but Tammy's treating it like a Twitter entry.

      Wasn't this the same right-wing media that blasted Obama for his romantic evenings with Michelle? So now they're calling him a Clinton?

      Disgusting "journalism" from Ms. Bruce. I hope the lashback hits her in the ass.
