Michelle Obama on 'Daily Show'

Do we really know Michelle Obama? She thinks so, since, as she tells “Daily Show” host Jon Stewart, after 20 months on the campaign trail there have certainly been plenty of opportunities to check her and Barack Obama out.

Much like Barack, I think she completely understands the gravity of the office and the responsibility involved.  The proper approach should be pragmatism and grace under pressure.  That certainly describes the two of them.  And their affection for each other is obvious yet not overt.  I think they make a great example for any married couple.

Michelle is a nice person, polite smart and would make a good first lady.

Also Obama is honest even though people try to make him a muslim which is crazy because his mother was not a muslim.

In the Jewish religion a child is what the mother is, so what is the big deal, Obama’s mother raised him and religion is not carved in stone, you can grow up to be who you want, this is America not India where you have to be what your father is/was.

Michelle Obama is warm, friendly, SMART, and very, very classy. 

She’s no Sancho Panza.  (Conservative George Will referred to Sarah Palin as Sancho Panza today.)

Tee-Hee!

And therein lies the problem. The Obamas sound too reasonable to make sense in a senseless age. I mean c’mon, where are the card tricks, self-aggrandizing, lipstick and pistol spinning? Maturity ain’t popular. Juvenile delinquency rules, my friends!
