President Obama: Michelle 'still thinks I'm pretty cute' with gray hair

The first lady loves her silver fox.

In a Google Hangout on Friday dubbed "A Virtual Road Trip with President Obama," the president took a question about how presidents age more rapidly than the average population, and acknowledged that even though he is sporting more salt than pepper in his hair these days, his wife Michelle is a fan.

When it was his turn to talk to the president, Rob Page from Portland, Maine brought up an article he'd read about "how presidents age extremely — a lot faster than any person in the world ages," earning a laugh from Obama.

"And you, my friend, are looking particularly distinguished. I mean that in the nicest way possible," Page continued. "How are you? How is life treating you? Are you happy? Is everything good with you?"

"You know, I am pretty happy," Obama replied with a smile. "The main reason is because I've got this amazing wife and two unbelievably terrific daughters who are growing up a little fast and I don't see them as much as I'd like because they're always hanging out with their friends these days, but that keeps my life in perspective."

Another thing keeping the president pretty content, despite the long hours and grueling tasks at hand, is his job. “Every single day I wake up and I have the possibility and the opportunity of making things a little bit better for somebody out there," he added.

As for his changing look, Obama was eager to set the record straight: "My wife at least, still thinks I'm pretty cute even with the gray hair, I just want you to know," he said.

The very fact the two insist on telling us all the private details tells me they are trying too hard to keep up the farce.

And by "my wife," he means Reggie.

Someone just gave me a copy of Laura Ingraham's book The Obama Diaries, (http://lauraingraham.com/the-obama-diaries) and she addresses this whole TMI aspect of the Obama PR machine. Remember when the Mooch said the daughters didn't like to crawl in bed with Dad because he's stinky? We have to hear about a flatulent president now? Ugh.

I remember the story that came out that Michelle said she goes to bed early every night and Barack always comes in and "tucks her in".  I lost my breakfast reading that one!

I wonder how the people we are up against are reading this? There are some serious issues and and some powerful players out there.
 
I wonder if the ayatollah, or the current not yet dead head of Al Queda, ...
 
I wonder if Putin would ever talk about and describe himself as 'pretty' and 'cute'.
 
We are being ruled by children.
