First Lady Michelle Obama is to make a guest appearance on an upcoming episode of the popular Nickelodeon show iCarly.

In the episode, which airs on January 16, the First Lady helps the show's title character Carly get in touch with her father, an Air Force colonel who can't make it home for his birthday.

Obama surprises the girl and her friends, which leads to her being called "Your Excellency" by Carly's friend Sam Puckett.

After being corrected by a friend that you don't call the First Lady that, Michelle Obama jumps in and says "No, no, I kind of like it."

I assume it’s an ironic term, like calling an obese man “Slim” or a bald guy “Curly”.

Is there a point to this article?
There are a 101 real, issue/policy things that Obama can be attacked on and we have to go here?

Many a truth is said in jest. In this case though, it was no joke.

Well it was in the script. I don’t think she made that up. She is not that inventive.

I agree - the line is in the script so we have no indication that it represents her true feelings. Having noted that caveat, one is left with several questions:

a) What in the samhill is a First Lady doing by appearing in a sitcom? Have we no sense of the dignity of the position? (and why do we insist on asking self-evident rhetorical questions?)

b) Didn’t anyone in Ms Obama’s staff recognize the inappropriateness of this line in the script?
