First lady got back

I'm a black woman who never thought I'd see a powerful, beautiful female with a body like mine in the White House. Then I saw Michelle Obama -- and her booty!

    It's Michelle Obama's choice.

    She has freely chosen how she wants the world to see her. The rest of us are equally free to view her choices of attire and appearance and dress as we too, see fit.

    For one thing, she's so tall she should break up her tall figure with jackets, skirts and trousers, and yes!! nice, elegant trousers with pleats and with those sheath dresses that show every bump and bulge, a jacket too. Wide belts don't cut it .... narrow ones do.

    I might suggest the author stop being so defensive and stubborn.

    When she was on 60 min, I saw an awful lot of leg, knees and thigh. And a lot of arms.

    Maybe a wee bit too much 'flesh'? She dominated the show.

    And yes, I happily voted for and contributed to Pres-elect Obama.
