“Bureau of Engraving and Printing: “We did the Bureau of Engraving (and Printing tour).”

sorry, i know you think it may be aestetically OK, but this woman and her corrupt husband have such entrenched and ingrained evil within them, that any amount of dressing up will not change that. This is a dirty that don’t come clean.

Trash wrapped up in pretty gift wrap is, in the end, still a mound of trash. Beauty within shines through, ugly is to the bone. She and her husband are the epitome of ugliness for the way the are destroying are country and future.

ABC News’ Karen Travers reports:

Mrs. Obama said that Washington, DC, is starting to feel like home, after living at the White House for a year and a half.

“It’s been a really good first year and a half,” she said in an interview with WJLA this week.

Like her husband has many times, Mrs. Obama lamented that the one key difference between her life in DC to that in Chicago is that she cannot just get up and go – for a walk, a dinner out at a restaurant or to play tourist at the city’s monuments and attractions.

Despite the restrictions of Secret Service and the fact that she one of the city’s most recognizable residents, Mrs. Obama has been out on the town quite a bit since moving to Washington, sampling new restaurants or dinning out with staff and friends. The Obamas celebrated their 17th wedding anniversary last October with dinner at the Blue Duck Tavern and the president threw a surprise birthday dinner for the First Lady at Restaurant Nora in January.

She said that famed chef Jose Andres’ Oyamel is her favorite restaurant in Washington, “because I love Latin food – a good menu, good margaritas.”

The First Lady said that her husband is a big fan of local hot spot Ben’s Chili Bowl (“He loves Ben’s”) but said that she has not tried out the half smoke haven yet.

Good Stuff Eatery also rates high on her favorites list for their burgers.

The First Lady said one of the things she loves the most about her new hometown is the Washington weather, noting that they didn’t have 90 degrees in April in Chicago, and the fact that the nation’s capital offers something for everyone.

“You can get lost in this place for a good week or more,” she said.

Mrs. Obama said she and her girls spent considerable time last summer visiting spots around town that focused on American history, like the Smithsonian Museums or the International Spy Museum, and venturing out to Luray Caverns in Virginia, which she deemed “amazing.”

The First Tweens, Malia and Sasha, rate the Spy Museum has their favorite place to take friends in Washington.

Why is she hunched over?

She's contorted to minimize her negative physical features. Bent over to lengthen and minimize the thickness of her arms. Her thighs are crossed so she can squeeze some of that meat out of the photo. the hunching over and the V of her arms also minimize the wideness of her hips. It was also probably shot through a fairly long lens. The photographer, hairdresser and cosmetologist probably got a good nights sleep that night.

Yep. Michelle just takes a cadre of SS guys with her in a limo parade down the street to the Farmer’s Market for vittles, LOL!

"She’s not standing like she’s trying to cross a creek without a bridge."

LOL! She does look nice. Very Jackie O. - which I'll bet was the point.

Also, if the White House is MY house, I'd like to request she keep her feet off my d@mn furnitre!

That’s one of the nicest pictures I’ve ever seen of Michelle Obama.
Because her caboose is pointed in the opposite direction? LOL

If this White House is ours, I’d like to see if Kurtwood Smith would drop by one day to reprise his Clarence Boddicker role from “Robocop”:

“B***hes, leave!”

I dunno. Nancy Reagan always looked better than everyone around her. Especially her kids. With such a beautiful mother (Ronnie & Patti) and handsome father, it always made me wonder how the kids turned out homely?

In the picture you posted, I am pleased to see that someone had the courtesy & the smarts to set the table with the Reagan china, which I always thought was one of the prettiest patterns at the WH.
