I haven't been keeping this up, but with work being so busy, it's been insane. Forgive my ineptitude.
I have a few things to say.
I hate how the media is obsessed with the Obama administration and their daily lives. Yes, he's the first Democratic president we've had in eight years, but that doesn't make him and his family Roswell aliens.
Michelle Obama is a beautiful, classy and well-organized woman with a distinct sense of style. Does this mean she will be the best First Lady this country has ever seen? No. The fashion community is fawning over her dresses and those of her daughters, when they should be focusing on the attempts she is making at improving the country with her newly-gained power as the SO of the President. President Obama's actions in the Oval Office and Congress should be the forefront of the media, but no, instead we get commentary on the kinds of mustard he likes on his hamburger.
Really. Enough. The Obamas are normal people. Focus on policy, not which designer or which food is their flavor du jour.

i agree, they did the same thing with jacqueline kennedy onassis! she was like a fasion icon..everyone wanted to look and dress like her.
I definately agree, the media is too focused on personal lives of the first family and not focusing enough attention and their actions in politics and how we are all affected by it.
The media, it seems, is willing to make a mountain out of a molehill these days, just to get attention. Your examples are spot on, from last post's swine flu to Obama's hamburger. Crazy, I say.
