Uncut title: "Mrs. Obama Can't Recall If She's Been Married '20-Something Years,' 'Over a Decade,' or 'A While'"

First Lady Michelle Obama couldn’t remember how long she’s been married to the President of the United States at a “Q&A With Children at Take-Our-Daughters-And-Sons-To-Work Day” event at the White House today – vacillating from “twenty-something years” to “over a decade” – before settling on, simply, “a while.”

QUESTION: “How long have you been with Barack Obama?”

MRS. OBAMA: “Have we been married? Twenty-something years. (Laughter.) Wait, somebody. You guys know the date. When was it? It’s been over a decade. It’s been a while.”

Reggie overheard saying: *I'll bet he's trying to forget it, too. *

Read the questions and her answers. What a moron! If she's not embarrassed, I am for her.

LOL

**Q Who’s the most interesting person you’ve met since you were First Lady?

MRS. OBAMA: Wow, that’s really — that’s a good one. Well, let’s see. I’ve met a lot of cool people — met the Queen of England. I’ve met the Pope. I’ve met George Clooney. (Laughter.) I’ve met other kings and queens, if you can imagine that. I met Nelson Mandela before he passed, and that was a real honor. Yeah, that was pretty special.**

She wants to sound so *cool* in her remarks....she ends up sounding like the pathetic moron she really .is

It’s been my experience that, even if she doesn’t like her husband very much, she knows when she married the jerk.

Yeah. I'm a guy, and right now my answer is "more than 20 years now." It would take a little ciphering to figure it out, because people rarely ask me.

But she can't get it within a decade?

It has been my experience that the only time a woman might hesitate or not speak the answer is when they think it might give some clue as to their real age. :0)

Is George Clooney a king or a queen?

In trying to be gentle this beautiful Spring morning, I’m going to give her a pass on this because remembering the length of time she has been married is a reminder that she is getting older, and older, and older. No woman wants to be reminded of that.

I won’t be too critical on her for that.

I know that I have a hard enough time remembering—I have to recall the date we got married, and subtract it from the current date. Or else I think of my older son’s age, because he was born a few months after we married.

I can imagine that on stage, in front of a lot of people and cameras and so forth, she was nervous. In that situation, a lot of people lose their ability to think at all, and wouldn’t even be able to answer simple questions like “What’s the square root of 16?”

Ever notice how, on game shows, people become incapable of solving the simplest puzzles? For example, with the clue, “Tiny Tim’s favorite activity” and the answer partially filled out, “T_ptoe Through The Tul_ps,” they stand and stare, unable to figure it out, while you are yelling the answer at the TV.

The whole Q&A is priceless.

Priceless and pathetic.

**Q How was it like in your life?

...........So instead, I wanted to be a pediatrician. And then after I decided I didn’t like science that much, I decided maybe I’d be a lawyer. So I worked hard and I went to law school, and I practiced law. And then I decided I didn’t want to be a lawyer, so — that’s what you do in life. You kind of explore things. I decided I wanted to work for city government, so I worked in Chicago. Then I started a nonprofit organization that worked with young people that wanted to pursue careers in public service.**

Then I was disbarred for corruption .... but you too, can play the race card ....and the reporters won’t axe you about it.

56 years. Sometimes blissful; sometimes challenging.
