‘I see the worry creasing his face’: Michelle Obama reveals the toll of presidential office on her husband

By Daily Mail Reporter

Last updated at 1:22 PM on 1st July 2011

First lady Michelle Obama gave a fascinating insight into just how heavily the weight of office rests on her husband's shoulders and how the job of president has taken it's toll.

Speaking at a fund-raiser for the Democratic National Committee in Massachusetts she told of his total dedication to the job and told how she worries about the increasing number of lines on his face

She said: 'I see the worry creasing his face. I hear the passion and determination in his voice.

''You won’t believe what these folks are going through;' he told me that last night.

''Michelle, it is not right. We’ve got to fix this. We have to do more,'

'Barack always reminds me that we are playing a long game,

'He reminds me, as I said to you, too, that change is slow.

'He reminds me that change doesn’t happen all at once, but that if we keep showing up, if we keep fighting the good fight, doing what we know is right, then eventually we will get there, because the truth is we always have in this country. We always have.'

Michelle Obama said that when her husband first told her he was planning to run for president she had serious doubts about how it would affect their young family.

She added: 'I was proud of the work that he was doing in the Senate. And I thought that he would make a phenomenal president.

'That wasn’t the issue.

It’s another Alinsky tactic for when he loses in 2012.

He is, after all is said and done, a victim.

Poor guy, a victim of the Presidency for which he is considered ineligible in the hearts and minds of many of us.

Just be aware that NOTHING coming out of Michelle’s or Barry’s mouths is honest truth ... it’s pure Alinsky tactics.

THAT is THE UGLIEST KISS photo I have ever seen.

They look as if they haven’t had much practice.

A lipless kiss? Noses smushed? WHO above the age of 10 kisses like that?

No, it isn’t the job or the smoking, it’s his inability to improve his golf handicap.

Oh good grief...it’s about having to face daily what a complete failure me, me, me, I, I, I, is....it’s all about him....facing reality isn’t part of his make up.

Hey, Moochele, it's not the job -- if you can call spending 3 hours a day at most in the office -- that's taking a toll. It's the stress from hearing you bitch that he's gonna screw up the last part of your taxpayer funded world tour and party schedule. And, trust us, he WILL screw it up.

Something tells me Moochelle is NOT cool with that. But I sure as hell am!

Well, yeah. When you get past 40 you start developing the yips and suddenly those 3 footers you used to just walk up to and nonchalantly knock into the hole start looking like 20 footers and the cup starts looking like a thimble.
