33. folks can hold quite a few thoughts in their heads at one time
I don't think we should resist feeling and expressing approval of loving relationships. Now, we've been following this President for about four years. I daresay, most of us do feel we know this man and his family almost intimately. It's just natural for those of us who haven't developed a barrier of dislike or distain for the man to revel a moment in these expressions of an obvious loving relationship. I really don't know what's so objectionable about taking a moment to reflect on this.

Further, I don't know about all of the propaganda talk. What's the President supposed to be promoting? A stable and loving relationship? I can't see how that's such a bad thing, especially when so many critics seek to dehumanize the man and his wife almost daily over policy differences and political nonsense.

It's nice to see them, and it's more than worthwhile to take a moment and contemplate this loving lady and her husband who bears so much of our burdens in his most challenging position. It's a wonderful example for the nation and it's always worthwhile in this turbulent and competitive nation to highlight love.
