    Is this an excuse to put the words “Gay-friendly” in front of an Obama? There were no dissections here. If anything, Michelle Obama is Camp as the potential next First Lady but that is about her Jackie O’ Style!

    The article clearly mention’s Michelle’s comfort level around LGBT folk and her ability and willingness to stump at gay functions, which she’s done many times to great effect. How is that not “gay friendly”? Unless, of course, you’re only interested in her hemlines and hairdos.
