Michelle, the fashion faux pas, eyeing these draperies as her next evening gown.

A few hours from now, Mrs. Obama will head to the Transportation Department.

What business does she have being there?

Now, now, this is just the sort of routine stuff that would be written about any 1st Lady...

“During the campaign, a regular stump-speech feature of the future president was a riff on parents’ responsibility not to let their kids gorge on junk food. In that vein, Mrs. Obama is taking on healthy living as a cause. While the Obamas are known as foodies, the first lady is not a purist. She took some of her newer staff out to a Five Guys Burgers and Fries in Washington recently. Her order: a cheeseburger, fries and a Coke.

Norris said of Mrs. Obama’s healthy-living agenda: “It is more about returning to the basics of healthy eating. One of the things that we have talked about doing here is really thinking about ways that we can bring healthy eating in to the White House. And so you may see that reflected in state dinner menus.”

When Hillary Rodham Clinton was first lady, her operation was dubbed “Hillaryland.” In the Obama White House, Norris said, “One of the things that is really important to us is that we are a unified White House, that we see ourselves as all members of the same team.”

The only unusual thing was her visit to those five federal agencies.. “and Agriculture, where she plugged fruits and vegetables.”

So far, it looks as though she’ll have to be content doing regular 1st Lady things, such as telling our kids to eat their veggies.

So far, for all her angry persona on the campaign stump, it looks like she won’t be the arrogant terror that Empress Hillary was as described by Gary Aldrich in “Unlimited Access.”

It has been noted that the University of Chicago Hospitals System has not seen fit to maintain that 250K community relations position she had previously occupied. Guess she wasn’t all that important there.

Then again, by this same time next year, she may be Minister of Health, Reproduction and Child Rearing, who can say?

Actually, I think those draperies would make a delightful evening gown. If the fabrics not too heavy.

In any case, something tells me we’re all gonna have to learn how to do stuff like that in the years to come.

Oh dear, Kate Winslett’s at the podium, hyperventilating. Someone get her a paper bag...

The governors wanted to dance, so Earth, Wind and Fire was booked for the gig.

Isn't that special. Our country and its economy are going down the toilet and the governors want to dance.

“Her schedule isn’t rigid”

Like it ever has been for this pandered-to woman.

OMG - that is awful. The woman’s mouth and dentition are grotesque.

If my post (#16) is over-the-top, please pull it. I just have vehement disdain for her.
