Pass the sick bucket. This week Michelle Obama, first lady, wife, mom, has taken on a new role, as dating adviser to the world’s single females. In an interview with American Glamour magazine, she clearly sets out her policy on one of the most pressing social issues facing young women. Rule number one: don’t pick a man just because of his looks. “Cute’s good,” says the woman married to the cutest political leader the world has ever seen. “But cute only lasts for so long, and then it’s, 'Who are you as a person?’" “That’s the advice I would give to women: Don’t look at the bankbook or the title. Look at the heart. Look at the soul. Look at how the guy treats his mother and what he says about women. How he acts with children he doesn’t know. And, more important, how does he treat you? When you’re dating a man, you should always feel good...” Oh stop, Michelle, I’m welling up. “You should never doubt yourself. You shouldn’t be in a relationship with somebody who doesn’t make you completely happy and make you feel whole. And if you’re in that relationship and you’re dating, then my advice is, don’t get married.” I suppose this can be summed up as: kiss that frog, for he may well turn into a president, too (or at the very least a Prime Minister, though the thought of that is surely enough to make any girl’s stomach churn). The "it’s what’s inside that counts" message is sweet enough, if not exactly original, and is no doubt meant to give us all hope. But I wish Mrs Obama hadn’t bothered to deliver it.

UGH... yet another Michelle barf alert!
Men like that.
It turns them on.
Or turns their stomachs.
Or something like that.
My dog has cuter bowel movements.
Then again, my dictionary says cute is "daintily attractive". I wouldn't think a man would want to be called "daintily attractive". I'm sure there are males, like Bonnie Frank who would, but not a real man like, say, John Wayne.
I think I am going to be sick.
ME-chelle, the First Sasquatch giving tips on who’s cute?
BLAAAAAAAAEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...
Crazy Aunt Esther is still runner up to the infamous Butch Rhino..

O and Thanks to all of the men and women who served and sacrificed to protect not only our Great US of A, but other countries as well.

Careful there. She’s probably looking at her rolodex of “winners” from ACORN for you to date.
and God Bless our soldiers who protect us daily.
A good Teleprompter is hard to find.
Yes....Bless them all.
Today we had a luncheon at my work-place to welcome back a young man who just returned to his “job” after 2 tours in Iraq....
Aloha kakou
“A good Teleprompter is hard to find.”
Try find a good democrat.....
According to Mirriam-Webster, this might just be spot on, since it defines "cute" as "attractive or pretty especially in a childish, youthful, or delicate way."
In her case, she was looking for a fellow traveler, and she found one.
We single women use “cute” in a different way than perhaps other people do. I know a lot of 200-pound hairy Marines my girlfriends and I regard as being extremely cute. It doesn’t just mean “attractive or pretty especially in a childish, youthful, or delicate way” anymore.
But Obama is right out. Cute is as cute does. He’s handsome in a metrosexual way, and being an adult woman I have no use for metros.
She could have said far, far worse things than suggesting that women should only be with men who make them happy. There are too many single women who stay with men who make them wretched, just so that they can be with someone and not be alone. I see it all the time. No objections here to what she has to say. In fact, I hope she inspires many young black women to look for good men, men who are going to marry and stay with their women.
Well, I don’t entirely disagree with you. But if O is her choice of someone with character, I can’t be bothered.
Better yet, look at how the guy treats his grandmother.
