Is the Obama marriage on the rocks? Astonishing claims emerge of ugly fights
The Daily Mail ^ | 1-18-14 | Tom Leonard

With invitations warning guests to ‘EBYC’ — Eat Before You Come — and rumours they’ll be dancing to star turns from Beyonce and her rapper husband Jay Z, it won’t be your usual White House knees-up.

Michelle Obama was 50 yesterday and President Barack Obama will be feting his redoubtable First Lady tonight with a party that will give them the chance to let their hair down and forget their troubles for a few hours.

The email inviting guests to the ‘snacks & sips & dancing & dessert’ advised them to wear comfortable shoes and practise their dance moves.

Purse-lipped Washington etiquette experts have tutted at the informality of it all, but the Obamas have always been keen to appear accessible, even if the stand-offish reality is somewhat different.

The Obamas are the world’s most scrutinised couple at the best of times, but it will be rare to find a guest at the bash who won’t be secretly watching them with particular interest.

After all, the last time they were pictured together — at Nelson Mandela’s memorial — the First Lady was looking none too pleased as the her husband posed for a ‘selfie’ photograph with the leggy blonde Danish Prime Minister, Helle Thorning-Schmidt.

Indeed, if the U.S. tabloids are to be believed, the relationship of Washington’s golden couple is facing problems that go far beyond dirty looks.

Under the headline Obama Divorce Bombshell!, the National Enquirer claims their 21-year marriage has dissolved in a string of ugly fights that were prompted by the Mandela memorial incident and — far more outrageously — Mrs Obama’s discovery that Secret Service bodyguards had been covering up infidelity on her husband’s part.

It’s an allegation the White House has declined to comment on, though after Bill Clinton’s trouser-dropping scandals, Americans would be rather...

And we TAX SERFS are paying for this private personal party and the gift. That her RICH spouse should be paying for. We also paid for the duds on their backs, and feet and the jewelery she wears, which isn’t cheap.

No way is she leaving him any time soon. She will milk the taxpayers for every vacay, lobster, botox treatment and new boob belt she can for as long as she can. They both will, including grandma.

The tabloids were the only media members that dared take on John Edwards. Until then he was on the untouchable list.

Wow, just read the whole thing. Nothing new for me — though I’m a bit weirded by Obama parading his erection to photographers on the plane. Never saw that before. He seems to be looking down at it, then spreading his legs to display it a few times. Reporters snapping away. What kind of weirdo would do that?

“EXAMINER tabloids were full of claims of “divorce” rumors”...

as well as some woman who was rumored to have gotten pregnant by GW, that ultimately Larry Flint and some others never revealed. I think Gloria Alread was also sniffing around but never found anything substantial.

What would you expect from Bacrock? He’s a “rooster”sucker in probably a literal sense.

Wow! ..if 1/2 of these allegations are true...the "national news media"

I think Michelle is getting tired of pretending to be Barry’s wife.

A weirdo whose emotional development stopped about age 12 1/2, or a really strange guy (why would he think no one would document his behavior--which in fact, they did, and posted it)

Considering what we know about the influences upon his upbringing, and chances for molestation, I'll opt for arrested development and a deeply weird person who thinks it's amusing to parade around like that in front of the press.

This is why Oprah can't rent those horses from the nearby corral anymore.

Let’s see: Put together two narcissistic, lying, baby-killing, racist, angry, crooked race-hustlers, at least one of whom is a flaming homosexual—result: a happy marriage?

Not likely.

Christie’s suddenly a corrupt political payback punisher, and the Obama’s are suddenly getting a divorce.

Hillary’s running - again.
