As busy as the president is he still finds time to take his wife out on a date to be just with her. They went to see the August Wilson play, “Joe Turner’s Come and Gone”. (Lincoln also took his wife to plays, as we know!)
It is also kind of cool to walk out of your house, get on a Marine helicopter and be flown to New York! When he was a boy of ten his mother saw no future for him in Indonesia and had him flown to America. For some reason that just came to my head.

Saw this in my paper today, love this pic.
Is this the date night that the Republicans are currently giving him hell for?
Yes, this was the date. He can well afford to take his wife to dinner and a play, even in a city hundreds of miles away. But to get him to New York and back alive cost the government more than the date itself. But what is he supposed to do, sit at home? Be a prisoner of the White House? Republicans need to get a life.
I like the tone in Mrs. Obamas back. Strong, firm, great muscle tone.
