He has no right to complain. He set the example.
Sure he does ,as a parent you have the right to say do as I say not as I did.He has the right to say learn from my mistakes but any good parent would know that.

Blue, what mistake do you think he thinks he made?

I have this feeling that he isn't worried so much about his daughter smoking dope as he is about her being caught doing it.
I bet some SS agent caught hell over it.

As a father, I try and teach my kids to obey the law. If they disagree with the law, I teach them to attempt to change it, but not violate it in the interim. Just one of those "respect for the rule of law" things I tried to help them learn.
But, we all have our own parenting styles.
I have little doubt BHO is any more upset about his child violating the law then you just described you would be - he's concerned with the optics, as you describe.
If this is Barry's "worst nightmare"...dang. Maybe because he's out playing golf all the time instead of being president - he got no worries.

I am relieved that you and your progeny have never speed or had an alcoholic beverage when not of age. Well done!

Do you teach your kids to speed and drink underage, too? WTH, man? I taught mine to obey laws. I was trying to be non-judgmental before, but you teach your kids it's okay to do drugs, underage drink, and speed, huh? I have to admit, I'm not a fan.

FYI, I had to go through your post a couple of times - so I fixed the spelling and grammar so I could figure out what you were trying to say.
Of course he was being sarcastic - but he wasn't being sarcastic when he originally said he teaches his kids it's ok to violate the drug laws. Even Stevie Wonder could see my response was equally sarcastic when I suggested I was not trying to be judgmental about him doing so. I was not being sarcastic when I said it is not ok with me to think there are parents out there who teach their kids it is ok to do drugs illegally, speed, and under-age drink.
My kids aren't perfect, nor is their father. However, I do not teach them that law violating is ok if you just don't like the law.
First ,BS.
Second, you need to get better at being sarcastic becuase you wast a lot of time and effort at saying nothing.

You're correct - it's BS that I fixed ALL of the errors; I only fixed what I needed to in order to understand what you were trying to say.
Second, I'm sorry you can't keep up, but I'm only responsible for what I say, not what you're able to follow.
