Michelle Obama Tells Moms To Put Themselves “A Close Second”

Katie Couric talks to First Lady and mother Michelle Obama about how she balances it all.  I know whenever I’m feeling like a crappy mom, I think about Michelle, and feel even crappier.  Seriously, how DOES she do it all?

Barack Obama and the First Family Takes Fitness Seriously

Sure, he probably puts in 27-hour days, but Barack Obama doesn’t neglect his health. President Obama and the First Family are pretty serious about fitness. Obama, father to Sasha and Malia, says, “Since I was a kid - when I looked at my grandfather at 55 - he already looked old. These days, at 55, people are in the prime of life.”

President Obama is on the cover of the October issue of Men’s Health. In it, he jokes about the bowl of apples he keeps in the Oval Office. “It was our first step toward health reform.” And yeah, health-care reform has been a big issue with Obama for a while now…starting even before his Presidential campaign.

“Even when I was a community organizer,” President Obama says, “I was paid $13,000 a year, I benefited from the fact that the guy who hired me insisted that I get health care as part of the package. And, you know, at the age of 24, 25, you think you’re immortal. So I was thinking to myself, boy, I could use that money to pay the rent. But he was very firm about everybody having health care, and I think that he did me a great service during that time.”

Six days a week, Obama exercises, even while balancing the job of President with his role as a father of two girls. It’s the job, actually, that makes him really appreciate the gym even more.

“My blood pressure is pretty low, and I tend to be a healthy eater. So I probably could get away with cutting my workouts back a little bit,” President Obama says. “The main reason I do it is just to clear my head and relieve me of stress.”

See, that’s where Barack and I differ. Me, I just have Guinness to relieve the stress.

There’s A Spy Named Obama In The Oval Office

No, this isn’t a crazy right-wing rant about how the President isn’t really a US citizen, but a secret Muslim spy — that’s so been done already. This is a post about how his daughter Sasha might be a secret communist spy. Continue reading »

Great Dad Moments - Barack Obama

This is the first ever ‘Great Dad Moments’ here at FameCrawler, and as such it goes to the first father: Barack Obama.

Seriously, how cute is this photo? I don’t care what your politics are, you’ve got to hand it to President Obama’s parenting skills.

The guy is a dad from the word go.

I wonder if the secret service in the other car is this happy.

Will Malia Make A Guest Appearance On FOX’s “5th Grader?”

Being a recent graduate of the 5th grade, Malia Obama is probably smarter than a 5th grader, but she won’t get to prove that on national television. The President and First Lady politely declined the invitation from Jeff Foxworthy and the show’s producers to appear as one of the show’s classmates.

Malia Obama Shares Her Birthday With America

Apparently first kid Malia Obama has the misfortune of a holiday birthday.  I understand that this is something of a downer for those that must fit their birthday into the already festive atmosphere of a national holiday.  For most kids Christmas is probably the toughest holiday to contend with, but Malia Obama is not most kids.  Malia’s dad, as you know, is the president, and as such the Fourth of July, which is also her birthday, jumps many rungs up the holiday ladder. (Sorry, commas were on sale.)

Strollerderby breaks this holiday/birthday thing down a bit more and Droolicious shares some of Malia’s fashion choices for the day.  FameCrawler?  We share Foo Fighters.
