Our First Lady is feeding the homeless today

[Fleshdancer]

I wish I had pictures of how beautiful this is. MSNBC just aired a video of her at a soup kitchen serving food to the homeless. This woman is an inspiration.

I'll keep looking for pictures or the video to post here.

2. That's awesome!

I know it's a PR stunt, but it's still pretty cool, and I get the sense that the Obamas genuinely care.

12. I don't think it is a PR stunt. She did this regularly in Chicago

with the kids. This is part of her life.

of the White House workers. :D

5. i was reading comments in a people magazine saying that

shrubs wife the former first lady would be an hard act to follow.....well I think Mrs Obama just surpassed her with ease of a breeze

13. What was Mrs. Bush's "cause"?

Every First Lady has a cause that they championed. Lady Bird's beautification of the highways left a lasting legacy -- I saw my first blue bonnets today.

I remember Nancy Reagan's was "Just Say No," OK, it may not have been effective, but at least it was something.

I can't recall anything Mrs. Bush did except the Texas Book Festival.

6. She is great. She could easily sit on her ass in the white house

and she goes out and serves the community. I love it. I love that they walk the talk.

9. She doesn't sit on her ass and she didn't marry an ass. nt
