1. People will be proud of the Obamas.

2. Elitists shopping at Target? I am SHOCKED.

:sarcasm:

10. It's okay...

they call it tar-... hell I don't know what letters to use for that sound. Damn. :(

[starroute]

12. Tar-jay (though I think it's an urban legend)

[cui bono]

15. Nope, not an urban legend, but perhaps an urban mutation.

It really happens here in Los Angeles. I just heard it a couple weeks ago when I was shopping there and a woman was on her phone and said "I'm at Tar-jay." I hate it.

[DevonRex]

13. Yeah. It's like the sound in "pleasure" but if you just put an S it

doesn't look right and nobody would get it. There's a specific letter in Russian that makes that sound. And if you transliterate it, it's spelled ZH.

[cui bono]

16. hm... I like the zh. Thanks. n/t

[AZBlue]

3. I don't usually read US, but this issue I'll have to pick up!

I love that photo of them - it must have been taken the same time as my absolute favorite of the two of them:

4. Nice. Barack is wearing the same tie and jacket.

Must be his official "romantic pose with Michelle" gear. It could have been at the same shoot, only Michelle had a few more pieces from the wardrobe to model.

[Eurobabe]

9. I love that photo, it's my desktop photo on my laptop

[blonndee]

18. That first one always gets me!

Beautiful, romantic photo. :loveya:

[Hope And Change]

5. K & R!

[Raine]

6. VERY nice

I'll have to look for it so I can buy it. :-)

[NightOwwl]

7. She is gorgeous. n/t

[calimary]

8. Truly! And very Jackie-ish.

Must be the sleeveless sheaths and the excellently toned upper arms.

11. What is particularly nice about the Obama photo's is the fact

that their smiles look genuine, not plastic and posed.
These two genuinely love each other. Their eyes shine with happiness, not with the plastic expressions of the Cindy and John club.

[blondeatlast]

17. Exactly; the warmth comes through tv and photos. It's absolutely real. nt

[Bullet1987]

14. They are the popular new couple

Has John and Cindy McCain been on the cover of any magazines? Barack and Michelle have been on NUMEROUS mainstream covers.

[1Hippiechick]

19. Gonna buy a copy - will become a collector's item. BTW, like her 'do a LOT better here - it's kicky

did not like her hairdo on The View - too coiffed and demure, IMHO

[Cha]

20. You better believe I'll be getting this

mag for posterity. I got their last one during the primes when they asked Obama "boxer or briefs"..you know, those kinda questions.

The same guy who publishes Rolling STone does US Weekly, Jann Wenner..a Gore, Kerry, Obama supporter!
