President Obama and the first lady gave a glimpse of their lighter sides Tuesday night, exchanging in playful – and at times downright flirtatious – banter at a glamorous million-dollar campaign fundraiser at the Gotham Theater in New York City.
Taking the stage to introduce her husband before a crowd of 400 donors, the Michelle Obama hailed the event as “sort of like our date night.”
“I would like to thank all of you for planning such a lovely, intimate evening for the two of us,” she said, with a tinge of sarcasm that drew laughter from the crowd. ”A little dinner, Alicia Keys. Really nice touch.”
“Who knows what will happen?” she said with a grin.

“The only difference that I can think of is that the salt is starting to catch up with the pepper in his hair,” she said with a grin. “I think it’s quite sexy, but it’s coming.”
President Obama returned the compliment, asking the crowd upon taking the stage, “Did you notice how she’s getting cuter?”
“She is remarkable, and it is the reason that I’ve got remarkable kids,” he said. “I have improved my gene pool. And it is true, this is the closest we get to a date — which I’m going to have to fix in about 14 months.”

Odd thing to say at a campaign fund raiser. Wonder what the suckers who forked out big bucks to be there thought of that comment.
There isn’t enough beer on this planet for me to think Moochelle Chewbacca is “cute.”
OMFG!!!!
Are her nails wet, or does she really, really not want to touch him?
That would make a turkey baster wilt.
BRAVO!
Democrat thing I guess. Hill and Bill, Potus, Totus, and Michelle, and let us not forget Al and Tipper. Sorry not savvy enough to post pic.
GOOD Christ!
Its arms seem more tentacle like than usual...
That is a photo shop right?

ROFLMAO!
“Getting cuter”??????? Geesh!!! Bet he got a bitchslap when they got home!!!! That’s an insult!
I was laughing so hard I was crying...still am.
all:
Her arms are MANLY....and their lips aren’t even CLOSE to touching each other!
I think he’s is (and the FLOTUS, also by her comments) reminding us of the many sacrifices they make, giving up all of their personal and family time, just to serve us as CIC and spouse.
I don’t know about the 14 months thing, but, hey, it is great by me if they go ahead and step down NOW and not run for re-election, so they can have that personal time they are so selflessly giving up now.
***...this is the closest we get to a date — which I’m going to have to fix in about 14 months.”***
“What does that mean?”
It means that if he gets re-elected, they’ll start spending millions for their date nights and vacations again. Oh, pardon me! It means WE will spend millions for them to travel, eat, and destroy our country.
