The Michelle Obama hair challenge

Nappy or relaxed, African-American hair has always been a loaded subject. So what does it mean to have a black do in the White House?

    What's next, Erin Aubry Kaplan?

    What a predictable hack. Erin Aubry Kaplan wrote a piece on Michelle Obama's ass. Now it's her hair. What's next?

    (Hint....in 2003 Kaplan also wrote a piece in Salon on whether or not she should get a nose job....)

    Btw, another on-line magazine (cough The Root cough) has already published a piece on Sasha and Malia's hair. So this piece is a bit late to the party.
