Michelle Obama says she and Democrat Barack Obama probably won't have any more children because the presidential race is enough additional responsibility.

"I think I'm done," she told TV talk show host Ellen DeGeneres in an interview. "I think our third child is this campaign."

The Obama's have two daughters - Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7.

Michelle Obama, 44, also agreed with her husband's response to the news that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's teenage daughter was pregnant.

"This shouldn't be an issue for political discussion," Michelle Obama said.

Gee, we couldn't be more obvious, could we?

Well, by democratoc logic if she is married to a President, she is qualified to succeed him as President.

  • Make America Great Again. Deport some DUmmies.
You have to give it to Michelle - she is a shrewd player. Within two sentences she agreed that one can't be an effective mother during a campaign while agreeing the topic shouldn't be a campaign issue.

Hey, it worked for Bill, didn't it?

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

no.  they have children for personal glory.
My fellow Americans, there is nothing audacious about hope. Hope is what makes people buy lottery tickets instead of paying the bills. Hope is for the old gals feeding the slots in Atlantic City. It destroys the inner-city kid who quits school because he hopes he'll be a world-famous recording artist.

What's the difference between Sarah Palin and Barack Obama?

One is a well turned-out, good-looking, and let's be honest, pretty sexy piece of eye-candy.

The other kills her own food.

Conservative politicians have children because they love them.

Liberal politicians have children because it plays well with voters.
