Michelle Obama First Public Figure on 'Better Homes and Gardens' Cover in 48 Years

"Better Homes and Gardens" hasn't had a public figure on its cover in 48 years.

With President Obama's approval rating plummeting along with the nation's employment picture, they must have figured now was the time to break with tradition and do an ultimate exposure puff piece on his wife:

Better Homes and Gardens will feature First Lady Michelle Obama on the cover of its August issue - the first public figure to grace the magazine's cover in 48 years.

Obama will be the focus of an article on healthful eating for children. The issue will hit newsstands July 19.

Editors from the magazine, which is owned by Des Moines-based Meredith Corp., and the first lady co-hosted a picnic in May for D.C. fifth-graders. The magazine features photos of the picnic and an interview with Obama about her efforts to promote healthful habits.

Americans better prepare themselves for wall-to-wall Obama cover stories between now and November 2012 not just about him but also his family.

If you thought the media pulled out all the stops in 2008, you ain't seen nuttin' yet.

Yeah, that may be true.

BUT the other two women wouldn’t dare to show their “toned bicepts”.

I could not cook when I got married. I learned quickly!! It is a better bang for your buck! If nothing else...baking all your own bread is MUCH cheaper than buying the pre-made from the store.

You know, BHG has just unwittingly created an opening for a new magazine/online presence.

Here's the funny part.

I look at these girls with their children. The mother is dirty, dirty clothes, dirty hair, tattoos, etc. The child is dirty with dirty clothes, etc.

So it is obvious mom does not work and CERTAINLY does not spend time grooming herself or her children.... I am thinking the house is certainly a wreck .... so that means she must have LOTS OF TIME to cook..... NOT!!!

The endless shilling for these utter incompetents is grating.

It illustrates the evil left's infiltration of so much of our society. You would be surprised at how many private High Schools are infected with leftist principals.

The evil left has been relentlessly implementing the takeover of our society for decades. I fear they may succeed. Our Founders gave us the final option to rid ourselves of tyranny. The Founders knew government would attract the most evil of humans.

Look closely at the picture. See the pattern in the foliage just behind her left arm, how there are light bands that parallel the arm. This looks to me like a photoshop artifact, caused by cloning the background.

I didn’t know how cook until I left my mother’s house. THEN it was a lot of trial and error.

I finally got the hang of it. ANYTHING is preferable to fast food...and as you say, lots cheaper!!

I taught in a town where that was what one ALWAYS saw at the grocery store! I shopped 20 miles away because they had a selection for cooks...not Twinkie eaters.

LOL - Now THAT cover has been retouched. She’s even less black, almost like a white lady with a very good tan.

I did the same thing. My mother is a good cook....my Grandmother living in the house was not so great.

Do a Google image search for “Obamas eating”...you get an endless parade of images showing them chowing down junk food. That’s all these people eat....

Is one of the homes featured inside this magazine a double-wide?

That Michelle could function as the two queen posts of a hip roof!
