In an interview with CNN, First Lady Michelle Obama thanks the media for their "support" and "kindness."

CNN reporter: "How's the family ready for this [the election]? It's going to be quite vicious, isn't it? How do you prepare for that?"

First Lady Michelle Obama: "You know, it's … we're ready, you know. Our children, you know, could care less about what we're doing. We work hard to do that. Fortunately we have help from the media. I have to say this: I'm very grateful for the support and kindness that we've gotten. People have respected their privacy and in that way, I think, you know, no matter what people may feel about my husband's policies or what have you, they care about children and that's been good to see."

Our children, you know, could care less about what we're doing.

Could NOT care less, she probably meant. But she sure got the media part right.

It sounds as if she is saying the media have left the children alone, which is what they normally do with presidents’ children.

Except when they make jokes about Alex Rodriguez knocking up your youngest daughter. Oh. Wait. They did that did Sarah Palin's daughter Willow. Your kids are off limits. Carry on.

I think she’s referring to media’s treatment of her kids.

But it certainly tells a lot about the “help” she expects in this election.

The media certainly does not respect Palin’s kid’s privacy.

We live in two Americas.

I have’nt read through all the posts but this:

“could care less”

drives me nuts. Then I guess you care quite a bit!

I hate that... much like irregardless, etc.

The media have left your children alone? Of course, they aren't the Bush sisters.

The media don't ask you the tough questions about WHY you are wasting taxpayer funds on trip after trip? Of course, you are a Leftist.

The media don't ask your husband the tough questions about why his policies are failures and why he can't seem to get his skinny ass off the golf course and go back to work? Of course not, that would be "racist".

You cannot be voted out fast enough. Please go back to Chicago and get another fake "job" where you are over-paid because your husband is in politics.

I remember vividly the concern the media had for Sarah Palin's family during the last election.

It is so irritating. Are people taught logic anymore?

What’s with the repeated use of “you know”?? I thought these two were suppose to be so intelligent.

I know what you mean, people cannot be bothered to say what they actually mean any more, they expect everyone listening to or reading what they say to interpret their gibberish. The worst part is that a lot of them don’t even know what they are trying to say in the first place. A prime example is the clown in the oval office.
