A Republican Congressional staff member,
Elizabeth Lauten, has resigned after
accusing US President Barack Obama’s
daughters of lacking class. BBC has more:
Elizabeth Lauten, communications
director for congressman Stephen
Fincher, gave up her post on
Monday.
Ms Lauten earlier criticised Sasha
and Malia Obama on Facebook
following their appearance in short
skirts at a Thanksgiving ceremony.
She later took down the post and
apologised for her “hurtful words”.
Ms Lauten had also accused the
two teenagers of looking bored
when they stood with their father
at a traditional turkey pardoning
event at the White House.
While most commentators reported
humorously on what they saw as
the uninterested expressions of
Malia, 16, and Sasha, 13,
throughout the ceremony, Ms
Lauten was notably more
outspoken.
Her deleted post reads: “Dear
Sasha and Malia: I get you’re both
in those awful teen years, but
you’re a part of the First Family,
try showing a little class. At least
respect the part you play.
