Any amount of time she vacations is just right.
Not really going to jump on the "they hate because she's black bandwagon" but I do have to chuckle when I read the comments about her having a big butt. Not sure how people missed it but in general black women have a different shape...they can work out and diet and do whatever but if you have a big butt you're just going to have a big butt.

Yeah her clothes are ugly but as far as her shape...she's pretty average for a black woman of her age that's had two children....not sure what they want her to look like...or why it even matters..can't believe I just spent a whole post talking about the First Lady's butt....good grief they're sucking me in

What has he done to warrant that title? Except get elected.

She has been searching for a cause and found it in trying to tame the obesity problem in children.

First ladies all have their drums to beat over some cause.

People discussing her anatomy is totally unnecessary.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Michelle Obama's physique, she has a healthy body....not "skinny" but healthy. She has a great sense of style but she is not a full-scale fashion plate (so yes she has some fashion don'ts)

And maybe my "LA" is showing but no one has to live with a large posterior if they do not personally care to do so....that's what liposuction is for. Although I will say that I find it quite odd that people speak about Michelle Obama's derriere negatively yet praise and worship Kim Kardashian, Beyonce and Jennifer Lopez for having the same "assets"

Her butt isn't that big, kindof average for any woman her age actually.

I didnt think she had a job...but all the secret service and such that goes with her shouldnt be happening in this economy, taxpayers are already stressed. The Bushes seemed to go to their ranch when getting away, not halfway around the world.

That paradox may be compounded by her other end, just not a pretty woman like Jennifer Lopez or Beyonce. It is presumed to be alluring to have a big backside IF a woman has a beautiful face.
