'Ma'am, you rock': Washington Post gushes over Michelle Obama's 'amazing arms'
The Washington Examiner ^ | July 12 2014 | Paul Bedard

Posted on 07/12/2014 8:15:51 AM PDT by PoloSec

Even for a celebrity first lady who consistently out-polls her husband and everybody else in Washington, Saturday’s Washington Post review of her much-publicized “guns” hit a new level of coverage for her fit, model looks.

“It's true what they say about Michelle Obama. She has amazing arms,” wrote restaurant reviewer Tom Sietsema, who was seated near the first lady at the 14th Street Spanish restaurant Barcelona Thursday night.

“Clearly the first lady works out, clearly she moisturizes and clearly L’Oréal should hire her as its pitchwoman after she leaves 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.,” he wrote in Saturday’s paper, adding: “Ma’am, you rock.”

Obama's fit looks, and especially her arms, have been the subject of media scrutiny and praise for years. There is even a blog titled, “Michelle Obama's Arms.”

Apparently, seeing them in pictures is one thing. In person, well, that’s something different, as the well-respected reviewer expressed in his story:

“As soon as I sat down, I spotted the reason for the abundant security. Even with her back to the crowd, the FLOTUS’s sleek coif, sleeveless dress (turquoise) and model posture gave away her identity.

“My first instinct was to tweet the sighting -- #TheSheBearIsLoose. My second impulse was to give the first lady, who enjoyed wine and dessert during dinner, her privacy. As it should, my news sense prevailed.

“I had a third thought, too: Draped across a companion’s chair, Michelle Obama’s arm was the best review Solidcore — the workout studio that the first lady reportedly frequents — could ever hope for.”

This is a continuing example of the media working to tell a lie long enough to make it true. The purpose ifs that sometime in the future they will be able to write things like: "Michelle Obama often referred to as lovely ..."( or, stylish, or beautiful ---fill in the blank)

Transsexuals have big arms, what’s the big deal.

Keep gushing over her and maybe they’ll kill you last.

What happened America?

Black Power

Next up female power, then illegal power, then terrorist power....anybody and anything except white power. Content of Character is dead. And I’m sure the white liberals will not think this is sufficient atonement for their shame of experiencing white privilege.

So. Am I wrong here in thinking that this Paul Bedard is queer as a three dollar bill?

Paul Bedard wrote the article in the Examiner about Tom Sietsema's article in the Post about Mrs. Obama and her arms.

So, yeah, chances are you're wrong about Bedard, or it's irrelevant.

“Paul Bedard wrote the article in the Examiner about Tom Sietsema’s article in the Post about Mrs. Obama and her arms.”

So was Sietsema’s original article really spin control to debunk the Joan Rivers quip from earlier in the week? Seems funny that his article should come out just a couple days after her comment got so much attention. And Ms. Rivers’ gaydar is better than anyone!

Alex Jones also talked about the Michelle / Michael theory on his Wednesday radio show. He tried to make it sound tongue in cheek, but he accurately cited the Youtube videos that came out a while ago, arguing that she is a tranvestite.

Joan Rivers was joking. Mo is not a tranny. She’s just a big, ugly, woman.

Notice how Obama is never at the WH anymore? He seems to be constantly away from ‘home.’

Sietsema may just be the kind of guy who likes to gush over Michelle Obama (but, yes it looks like he really is gay -- that seems to be a job requirement nowadays with arts/culture/entertainment writers on big city newspapers). It's hard to speculate about whatever else he may be, because -- like a lot of restaurant critics -- he doesn't let his face become public for fear restaurants will treat him differently if they know he's writing for a newspaper.

I'm pretty sure Michelle Obama isn't actually a man. Joan Rivers's jibe was funny, but wasn't it more about how Mrs. Obama looked, rather than whether she was literally a transsexual or transvestite? Also, if you wanted to do damage control, would you really praise Michelle's arms? Aren't MO's powerful "man arms" the very thing you'd want your readers not to think about? I think it may just have been that they ate at the same restaurant and Sietsma just couldn't keep from kvelling about it.

There are ways to obtain kids that don't include the normal biological method, and since there is absolutely nothing normal about the 0bamas, you can excuse one for being suspicious.

BTW, claims by Hussein that he was whelped by Stanley Ann are also suspicious - has anyone ever seen a VALID BC that shows this to be true?

I was watching QVC (not gonna apologize, lol) and the representative for The Quacker Factory said she wanted “guns” like the wife of BO> I watch those programs to get away from politics, how did sparkle and shine t-shirts get tainted?

I’ve been seething and will probably write a letter to them. One has to escape the usurper’s clutches somewhere and I thought clothes with little kitties playing in wheelbarrows that had American flags atop would be it.

He could actually be the product of her father and a black woman - but i doubt it. That would mean that way back when they decided on a coverup and that Stanley agreed to take on a kid who wasn’t hers. I just don’t see that. To me it’s more likely that Frank Davis is the father but then why would the Obama family in Africa accept him when it was all a ruse?

IMO MO is just a BIG female and yes, with some masculine characteristics. Most everyone knows white women like that also - they’re women, just not as feminine.
