http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama#Family_and_personal_lifeIn June 1989, Obama met Michelle Robinson when he was employed as a summer associate at the Chicago law firm of Sidley Austin. Assigned for three months as Obama's adviser at the firm, Robinson joined him at several group social functions, but declined his initial requests to date. They began dating later that summer, became engaged in 1991, and were married on October 3, 1992.

I always feel bad that the slimebag pukes made their presidency so hard. They should have been able to be open and out there instead of being attacked for everything they do. I'm looking forward to seeing them really shine as people when the next Democratic president takes over in 2016
