When is some information too much information?

In an interview with Glamour magazine, Michelle Obama reveals that her husband, Barack, is so “snore-y and stinky” when he wakes up in the morning that their daughters won’t crawl into bed with him.

The interview, in the magazine’s October issue, was conducted by Tonya Lewis Lee, who is married to Spike Lee, the filmmaker.

Referring to their daughters, Mrs. Obama says: “We have this ritual in the morning. They come in my bed, and Dad isn’t there — because he’s too snore-y and stinky, they don’t want to ever get into bed with him. But we cuddle up and we talk about everything from what is a period to the big topic of when we get a dog: what kind?”

I think she’s trying to humiliate him. Dims would be funny, if they weren’t so scary.

Bill is too busy in everyone else’
bed...

The decline of dignity continues...........

Wonder how she stands it then? Yikes!

She wants voters to deal with it like she does... by holding their nose.

"I'm not a Muslim, but I know that they have to pray 5 times a day. Each time they have to clean themselves with running water..."

I think it is only their feet they clean before prayer.

Good Lord, this is entirely too much information that I really didn’t need.

Sorry. I’m in a corner.

More than that. They need to clean the legs (up to the knee), hands (up to the elbow), and their face (and the ears).

OK, everyone, we really need to know if this democrat will rent out the Stinkin' Bedroom...

[freeplancer]

No offense, but ye not know what ye talk about.

I could have gone my whole life without knowing this.

Yak!

He’s one of those that don’t shower or bathe before they go to bed. He’s a morning washer.... plus he’s a smoker. Nice breathe and body oder to wake up to for the Mrs. No wonder she aren’t there. Ha.

Barf!

Dims would be funny, if they weren’t so scary.

Ain't that the truth!
