Now that a video of Malia Obama – who, at 19, is an adult and going to school at, of course, Harvard – has gone viral showing the former First Daughter blowing smoke rights, the left [1] has re-discovered the right to privacy:<\/p>\n
Both sides of the US political divide are defending Malia Obama’s right to privacy after a video went viral showing the eldest daughter of former president Barack Obama apparently smoking.<\/p>\n
Chelsea Clinton and Ivanka Trump were among the numerous defenders of Malia, 19, on Twitter after the video on Friday seemed to show her blowing smoke rings in a bathroom.<\/p>\n
“Malia Obama’s private life, as a young woman, a college student, a private citizen, should not be your clickbait. Be better,” Chelsea Clinton, the daughter of Democratic former president Bill Clinton and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, wrote on Twitter.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
It didn’t apply, of course, to Sarah Palin’s family, or George W. Bush’s daughters.\u00a0 But hey, better late than never.<\/p>\n
Make no mistake – I\u00a0agree\u00a0<\/em>with them.\u00a0 Presidents’ kids should be off-limits (and presidents should keep their minor children off-limits).\u00a0 Former presidents’ kids, even moreso, unless they do something to make news on their own.<\/p>\n
College kid smoking?\u00a0 Dog bites man.<\/p>\n
Harvard kid being an idiot?\u00a0 Dog licks self.<\/p>\n
