Our president ...being chivalrous :)

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2601792/That-close-call-President-Obama-saves-Michelle-Kate-Middleton-moment-stops-skirt-blowing-wind.html


President Barack Obama saved wife Michelle’s skirt from blowing above her head in the wind as they boarded Air Force One today.

As the Obamas boarded the plane in Houston, Michelle’s skirt began to vigorously billow in the wind. Barack kindly placed his hand over his wife’s bottom to save her from potentially embarrassing photos.


more photos at link.. it was a very windy day

I really admire that about him. And I think the right hates him even more for it.

Nonono, Presidential families are supposed to be Stepfordized zombiebots! Love is not allowed! Get with the program, you two!


(Seriously, those two are cute and classy. Bless that family for all they do, and what they put up with on our behalf.)
