IWA for Sunday 040509

With all that is going on, a straight forward, hard hitting question?

Hey folks,

It's time for the IWA. I really want you to think about this for a second. We have a new President that is in Tyranny Mode. Seriously. First the Banks. Then the Insurance Industry, and now the Auto Industry.

We have a President that is spending America into a debt that will not be easy, if even possible to get out of. A President that completely disregards that little piece of paper that he swore to uphold. It is called the Constitution.

We have North Korea, just launching a rocket, Russia getting back to their USSR routes, Iran continuing their Nuclear quest. Israel preparing to take action on their own. More credible threats by the Taliban to attack Washington soon.

So now with all this, and more, folks I just have to say something here. With this Administration and the current Congress, it has become nearly a full time job to keep up with the insanity. I truly mean that. With all this going on, and Obama's Wife appearing on one of the biggest shows in the history of television, with someone not afraid to ask tough, and or, personal questions of her interviewees, what does she want to know about Michelle? "Is that a baby bump?"

{Sigh}

According to BBC News - Obama diary: Days 71-80 This entery by Rajini Vaidyanathan

If there is anyone who is not afraid to ask personal questions of her interviewees, it is Oprah Winfrey.

In an interview with the First Lady in the April issue of Oprah's 'O' magazine, Ms Winfrey's no-holds barred approach is evident yet again.

She asks Michelle Obama about rumours over her supposed "baby bump".

Baby bump? THIS is what you think the world wants to know? By the way, did Oprah NOT just call Michelle fat? {Laughing}

The answer from the First Lady is just as straightforward: not pregnant, and not planning on it.

Oprah: Well, you look better than ever - despite the rumours that you've got a baby bump.

Michelle Obama: [Laughter] I know - I was like, "Baby bump? As hard as I work on my abs?!"

Yeah remember the Obama's are "thin people" as a reporter pointed out after taking a ride on Air Force One with them. Why not? Obama would rather work out than visit wounded troops. They both make sacrifices and work hard on their appearances, they should not be dissed like this. Good Job Oprah.

Oprah: By the way, nobody would be happier if you were pregnant than Gayle King. Out of nowhere, she'll tell me, "Oh God, I really hope Michelle gets pregnant - and that it's a boy!"

Michelle Obama: [More laughter] Here's the scoop: Not pregnant. And not planning on it.

Oprah: Not pregnant.

Michelle Obama: Not pregnant.

So glad we got to the bottom of that. Congratulation Oprah Winfrey, you ARE the Idiot of the Week. Way to go. Way to ask those tough, hard hitting, personal questions to the one some call Obama's number one adviser. In such times as these, we must take pause to give thanks for people like you Oprah. We must give thanks that people in a position such as your can get to the answers that this Nation so desperately need answered, is Michelle Obama getting fat? Or is that a Baby Bump?
