Remember how the Left used to howl in embarrassment every time Bush went anywhere? Well, it’s good to see that we now have a President who is so willing to demonstrate his good taste in things.
Hard to argue with this one.
I do have to say though, that Obama sure has an awkward, uncomfortable looking pose in this picture. He normally looks much more athletic and composed than this. She must have really been hot.

That one, thank all that is holy, I must have missed.
I don’t think I ever saw that one with Clinton either. Thankfully.
Notice that this woman also seems to know how to dress nicely. His wife really has no fashion sense whatsoever, despite what the media says.
I am no fashion maven, and I haven’t a clue how to dress myself, but my take on Michelle Obama is that she seems unaware that many of her fashion choices accentuate her negatives and minimize her positives. I don’t understand about half of what I see her wearing.
The only thing I get out of the First Lady’s fashion sense is an incessant buzzing in my ears which sounds like a chorus of insects. No matter how hard I concentrate, all I’m able to decipher is something about “silk” and a “sow’s ear.”
Dunno what it means.
Uh oh… now I feel creepy. Apparently the girl Obama and Sarkozy appear to be ogling is a 17 year old…
Ouch.
ABC says Obama wasn’t ogling her derriere, but was turning to offer his arm to another woman descending the stairs behind him.
What, you’ve never used a trick like that to sneak a peek at a hot chick? Really?
Cosmic, the MSM comes “to the rescue.”
Oh, by the way…and at the risk of being crude… That “uncomfortable pose” you noted has a name. “Boner-leg.”
Heh… the ass that launched a thousand quips…
My favorite comment on this so far was from Glenn Reynolds, I think, who says that Americans have spent more time looking at this girl’s ass than they have spent looking at any single piece of Obama’s legislative agenda.
I think that’s probably accurate.
For what it’s worth, here is my analysis of this photo and the video of the same event.
Sarkozy is ogling. He is ogling like a Frenchman, meaning that he is overt, and seems somewhat amused by the opportunity to indulge his inner caveman.
Obama, in my opinion, is attempting to be discrete, and is covering his ogle by “helping to coordinate the photo shoot.” In other words, he realizes both that he can get a better look for a longer time AND that he can maintain plausible deniability if he combines his gawk with an offer to help the woman behind him. It is unfortunate for him that this decision created a split second image that made it appear just the opposite, and that a photographer was quick enough to grab just that second.
As far as the “boner-leg” thing is concerned, I find that highly improbable for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is the reaction time that would be implied.
What cracks me up is how the media and partisan lap-dogs are trying to pretend Obama didn’t gawk at this girl’s ass when he clearly did.
Not that I find anything wrong with that, by the way, even if she is only 17. That’s a pretty nice ass and I would be lying if I tried to pretend I wouldn’t steal a look at it myself in the same situation.
Luckily I don’t have cameras on me 24×7.
Heh! A pretty figure is hard for a red-blooded African (American) to ignore.
And yep! The reaction time involved would disqualify “boner-leg.” But, we do not know what took place BEFORE the photo was snapped.
I’m just kidding, of course. I don’t really see Obama as a Clintonian when it comes to the ladies. Even though he married an uglier woman than Hillary…I just don’t see the guy as being on the prowl…or interested.
You know…when you love yourself as much as Obama does, it’s hard to find anyone else very attractive.
The only person uglier than Hillary is Pelosi in my book.
Everytime I see Michelle, I am reminded of the Seinfeld episode (man hands) she has man’s face. Easier to look at than the 2 noted above though, I will give her that.
I guess I’m in the minority (especially on the right) because I don’t see Michelle as especially unattractive. On a scale of 1 to 10 where Helen Thomas is a 1 and Hale Barry is a 10, I’d give her a solid 6.5 or maybe even 7.
You’re in the minority here, but the general consensus is that she’s attractive.
Hale Barry is an “8″.
In their primes Grace Kelly, Ann Margret, Ingrid Bergman, Bo Derek, Christine Brinkley, Kim Basinger, and Lynda Carter were “10′s”.
I disagree that Obama wouldn’t grab any action offered to him. He believes the hype that he can do no wrong. He isn’t guided by morality. Just look at the way the media is going out of its way to excuse him for looking at that girl, you know he has a pass unless he is caught banging someone out in a public park who is underage and its caught on tape.
Our current first lady is better than Helen Thomas, but she would only turn my head because she looks like a moron with the way she dresses.
Hmm… well, I’d certainly put Halle Berry (no idea how to spell her name) as a 9 no matter who you put as a 10. Ann Margret, Bo Derek and Kim Basinger are more on a level with Halle than with Grace Kelly.
Ingrid Bergman is an 11 on any scale of 1 – 10. She was inhumanly beautiful, setting her as a “10″ is totally unfair to the rest of female-dom.
Regardless, Michell Obama is by no means ugly and is significantly more than “average” in beauty.
Of course that’s because I’m using a scale that is not based on Hollywood’s idea of beauty where “Ugly Betty” is at least a 7 herself. I’m comparing Michelle not only to Giselle Bundschen but also to the 250 pound matron in Walmart wearing the tight green hot pants.
