Is Michelle Obama the best first lady so far?

There is no such thing, as "BEST" her program for fighting obesity in children is to be commended. But she is taking it to far: pushing kids to drink more water, give me a break; pushing healthy meals is fine, but I do volunteer work at a couple of schools: healthier lunches will end up in the trash and who is paying for the trash? We are.

Now, what about her taking her family, aunts, cousins, etc on vacation at the governments expense? who pays for that? What about some of the cloths she wears? They do not spell class in my mind anyway. I think we could go on and on, but my point simply is; there is no such thing as the best first lady. Almost everyone has given something to our country. We just hear more about Michelle because of 24/7.

Oh and her vegetable garden she plants in the White House yard every year, with the big photo op showing her on her hands and knees or showing her surrounded by inner city kids from D.C. do you really think she plants any of that stuff or even harvests most of it. She is a phoney!!!!!

I will say it again: I applaud her for her project and think that part she is sincere about.

Can't ask for more than this in a First Lady.

You do realize that Michelle has referred to to Barack as "snore-y" and "stinky?"

So according to you she is special and unlike all the other First Ladies in the last several decades she should not push programs to improve the health and welfare of the American People as they did. Got it.

Geeze, and people don't look into the mirror and know they should go on a diet and eat right. Are people that dumb that they need a first lady (who is also fat and gawky) to tell them. Really?

Well, looking at the people I see daily I hate to say the answer is, Yes they are that dumb.

Not by a long shot.
