Wtf? "Oh Michelle you got an arm too?" Obama snidely ribbed his wife…..".
From a blog on the ABC site about the Obamas and Bidens in Detroit. Good grief...what a pathetic, nasty attempt to portray Obama has having no respect for Michelle, when anyone who listens to him knows he worships her.



Obama was joined on stage for the duration of his speech by Michelle Obama, Jill Biden and his running mate. At the onset, Obama disappointed the crowd – telling them that his wife would not be speaking today. "Michelle decided she wasn’t going to speak today. She just wanted to sit there and look cute. That’s okay," he joked (much to Michelle’s dismay?), "It’s okay with me!"

Later – when an audience member fainted and Obama stopped his remarks to toss a bottle of water into he crowd his wife helped and similarly threw her water bottle into the crowd as well. "Oh Michelle you got an arm too?" Obama snidely ribbed his wife….. perhaps not setting up the Senator well for his upcoming 16th wedding anniversary celebration on Friday.

4. I heard him say that. It wasn't "snidely ribbed". What a nasty description.

5. Yeah, people hammered Michelle for "diminishing" Barack with her jokes, too.

It's all crap. They clearly love and respect each other, and their humor within the marriage is their beeswax, not ours.

8. I'm dizzy from the spin
My husband looks at me the way Barack looks at Michelle. She looks at him the way I look at my husband. I'm blessed with an incredible marriage and the kind of stuff reported on that blog is similar to the way my husband and I speak to each other.

Trust me, it's a great thing. Those are the moments that are laughed about for years. Those are the memories you grow old with.
