'Selfie' diplomacy: Michelle Obama looks unamused by Barack's joking with Danish prime minister
Telegraph ^ | 12-10-13 | Raf Sanchez

Posted on 12/10/2013 11:10:26 AM PST by SJackson

First lady appears to fail to see the funny side as her husband takes a 'selfie' with Helle Thorning-Schmidt and David Cameron

For a memorial service it was a remarkably jovial scene: Barack Obama, David Cameron and Helle Thorning-Schmidt, the Danish prime minister, huddled together for a smart phone photograph.

But one person looked distinctly less amused by the world leaders' "selfie" - Michelle Obama.

The First Lady stared straight ahead, hands clasped in her lap, while her husband laughed with the Europeans at Nelson Mandela's memorial in Johannesburg.

Another photograph shows shows her looking on, unsmiling, as Mr Obama shared a joke with Ms Thorning-Schmidt and patted her on the shoulder.

I’ll never forget the year I walked out to the garden and kept looking around because something wasn’t right. It finally hit me that every last pea had been eaten overnight by the deer. They had eaten every last indication that peas had ever been there. No evidence, no crime.

Had raccoons do that to my corn this year. Peeled the ears off the stalks and they just disappeared. No silks, no husks, no nothing. I finally had to start counting ears to realize that a problem was afoot. That was the fattest raccoon you’ve ever seen, too.

She's 12. By the time she's 30 that is going to make her look angry all the time just like it does her mother. So, yes, if something is that fixable--why not make the repair? They reset overbites all the time.

MO is angry but she wouldn't look nearly so angry if not for that under bite.

I can't help but think of Mayor Marion Barry when wanting to caption this photo...

If those three are there — who is running the country?

Not really....the people were dancing in the street as well...this is S. Africa...they behave differently.

But this look says it all...laughing my fanny off! Typical Michele has no control of her body language...Obama's attempt to ease her isn't working..hahahaha! and he looks like he's anything but delighted in having to deal with her.....

Michelle’s back to the blonde and her legs toward Obama speaks volumes....even without her facial expression.....she cannot hide her emotional makeup for long....that’s why we see her expressions as so often “putting up with” when she’d be otherwise having plenty to say....no doubt Obama will not hear the end of this one.

BTW much of the work and has been since he took office, has been either keeping a lid on Michelle or otherwise occupying her through aides and others....she is tough to contain.

I remember a picture of her scowling at an ice cream cone she was eating.

Who scowls at ice cream? I mean really, who scowls at ice cream?

Barry is more into hoodies. I wonder if he makes Moochelle call him “Travon” in bed.
