Michelle Obama: White House garden 'semi-open to the public,' can be seen through the fence
Daily Caller ^ | 5/7/13 | Vince Coglianese

Michelle Obama told an audience attending her book signing Tuesday that the White House garden is still “semi-open to the public” because visitors can see it through the fence.

She was promoting her book, “American Grown: The Story of the White House Kitchen Garden and Gardens Across America,” released in May 2012.

“[M]y goal in this book is to share the story of the creation of the garden,” Michelle Obama said during the Tuesday morning signing at Washington’s Politics and Prose Bookstore, “because while it is semi-open to the public — because if you visit the White House along the South Lawn, you can see the garden from outside of the White House.”

Yes, indeed. Because anybody with access to the internet can use google-maps to zoom in from above on the white hut, that makes their
entire operation the most open in history.

LOL. Michelle Antoinette strikes again. The peasants can look through the fence at Michelle’s garden until she sees them and orders the palace guard to round them up and move them so they don’t obstruct her view.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hameau_de_la_Reine

The Hameau de la Reine, The Queen’s Hamlet) is a rustic retreat in the park of the Château de Versailles built for Marie Antoinette in 1783 near the Petit Trianon in the Yvelines, France. It served as a private meeting place for the Queen and her closest friends, a place of leisure.

Marie liked to pretend she was a milk maid. This little fancy became fashionable among the french nobility. For awhile.

My grandmother once visited the White House Rose Garden in the early 50s. She actually got to meet and speak with Mrs. Eisenhower. While there she asked and was given permission by the First Lady to take a small cutting from John Quincy Adams’ famous blue rose bush.
She was able to graft the cutting onto her own rose bush with white and red roses on it already for what she then called her Patriot’s Rose Bush. It’s been 30 years since she passed. I wonder what ever became of her roses.

“can use google-maps ... “

Or look at a picture of it, or read about it.

“Semi-open to the public” - cool

“Semi-open to the public”? Sounds like Pamela Anderson or Madonna...
