Dayum! How can she be even more gorgeous as the years go by? When I was little there was a saying, “black doesn’t crack” and MO personifies this. The fella with her is not so bad either.
I did jojo and you would be able to tell it by the tired-azz look on my face. I am ready to go to bed – right now! I have a busy full day/night tomorrow and I need some sleep! š š š
Our FLOTUS just shines with both beauty and goodness and it’s been wonderful to watch her be recognized and admired across the world. The Obamas have got everything–grace, stunning good looks, intelligence and greatness of heart. They are one of a kind.
Is there a clothing allowance for all those beautiful dresses or do the designers discount or donate them for the privilege and advertising of FLOTUS wearing her dress? Or do they have to buy the clothes out of the Presidential pay? Also, does she get to keep the dresses other than those going to the Smithsonian?
I know I am not the first to realize this, but after a quick power nap, I awoke thinking if VP Biden and the Pope have a quiet moment, if the topic of the next person to sit in the Oval Office should be Joe Biden, it feels right that there will be encouragement and a papal blessing on VPB and Dr B, so I am in! #ridinwithbiden
Someone needs to blow this up to poster-size and have 1000’s of them with people protesting wherever Trump goes….his bodyguard can’t take em all down…..
VERY interesting discussion and background on Pope Francis:
Pope Francis’ visit to the U.S. with MMonsignor Anthony Figueiredo, director of Pontifical North American College in Rome; Father Matt Malone of America magazine; Alexander Stille of Columbia University; and Allen Pizzey of CBS News.
Finally had the opportunity to listen to the wisdom Pope Francis generously showered on the US Congress & the world!
Found it very interesting at which points during his remarks the CSPAN camera folk captured the responses of a select few of those present. When he spoke of the Selma to Birmingham march the camera focused momentarily on Rep John Lewis at which point I sorta lost it!
Knowing what Rep Boehner announced to day, evidently unknown to anyone before he did it, it induced a touch of compassion as I watched him suffering from overwhelming emotions. That he contained himself as well as he did is a bit of a surprise. But, he was truly suffering through that speech and his glib ‘Good luck’ at the outset was likely much more directed at himself than @Pontifex.
However, as the Pope ‘simply,’ without any hesitation, condemned the weapons profiteers the expressions on Ambassador Power’s face touched me and I’m grateful the CSPAN folk captured that poignant moment. She absorbed the Pope’s message in a fraction of a second and both exhaled, smiled a bit and then closed her eyes – the impact of the words being what they should be to any caring person upon hearing what the Pope said. So, I decided to thank her š
Now it’s time to prep super and relax … thus, good night TOD and I’ll try to contribute a bit more substance during the weekend than I’ve been able to do these past days!
He must be exhausted. He’s done so much since he set foot on our shores. And now on to Philadelphia, where he’ll hold another mass, visit Independence Mall, participate in the World Meeting of Families, meet with bishops, make a visit to a maximum security prison, hold another mass and meet with staff of the World Meeting event. And whatever else happens in between. VP Joe will also escort him to some of this.
He’s left a lasting impression on the people of our nation. I absolutely love him.
what I have learned about “breaking news” during President Obama’s term so far:
when you think that events of this week can’t be topped, some unexpected/secretly-planned event happens.
how in the world are lazy people like me expected to catch up with their other regular activities?
I think I might have to reach out to POTUS to write me one of those “absentee notes”: => “to whom it may concern, please excuse Linda’s tardiness ad laziness, she was virtually following me as I went about my business of Presidenting “
Wow…wow…WOW!
Congrats on being furst Nerdy.
Neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerdy!!! š
One might even go so far as to say WOWZA!!!
Some arrival pics…
š š sooo
…happy I caught this!
Who’s gonna be the next Canuck PM?
No seer here, but I sure hope it’s not the same old Canuck PM.
Wowza…..we have a lovely First couple.
Dayum! How can she be even more gorgeous as the years go by? When I was little there was a saying, “black doesn’t crack” and MO personifies this. The fella with her is not so bad either.
speechless!
Simply stunning…both of them!!!
Cheshire cat has got nothing on the kenyan.
Exactly, I could almost hear him purring! š

Reminds me of a old saying – “When you’ve got it, flaunt it!” Not that your Kenyan is flaunting of course. š

Yes, get some sleep….you need to bring your A game tomorrow….It’s party time!

Sumptuous photos from Chips, NW and in tweets! Thank goodness WP earlier problem has been corrected.
Here’s another…
Bing translation:
“Michelle (Obama) my beautiful! A stunning dress signed Vera Wang for the state dinner with Chinese president.”
That is really exquisite food artistry! That pastry chef is a genius.
Former EPA Head, Lisa Jackson
Ohhhhh, I forgot… She’s now Environmental Director for Apple (notice Tim Cook, CEO on the list.
That’s a lot of power at that table. Whew.

Is that pope feller still around? I want some more
heads to rollmiracles.He’s sleeping before he heads to Philly tomorrow. So, more time for more miracles…!!!
Sleeping? At this critical time? #Notacceptable.
