Newsweek Adds Insights in a Week of 'Hear No Evil, See No Evil' Response to Iman's Parade Interview

Hopefully, you've had time to read the TIME cover story on Michelle Obama. One of my take aways -- not the first time the topic was discussed -- is the fact that there was tension in the Obama marriage, regarding President Obama's commitment to politics.

Speaking of Michelle, President Obama wrote in The Audacity of Hope: " 'You only think about yourself,' she would tell me. 'I never thought I'd have to raise a family alone.' "

We tend to romanticize the Obama marriage as we see it today. And both Obamas admit that they actually have more balance now, more together time, than ever in their marriage. For feminists who suggest that Michelle Obama should have stayed in Chicago or sought an equally powerful job in D.C., Michelle says this was not the right decision for her.

WTF: Iman re Michelle. Do Women Thrive on Putting Each Other Down?

We women have a strange way of talking about each other, and it takes a lot to shut us up. And yet, this is a moment of national feminine silence over Iman's Parade Magazine comments about Michelle Obama.

‘Mrs. Obama is not a great beauty,” Iman says, startling me a bit. “But she is so interesting looking and so bright. That will always take you farther. When you’re a great beauty, it’s always downhill for you. If you’re someone like Mrs. Obama, you just get better with age.”

Just to be clear, I detest profanity. It's a rare day when an expletive leaves my mouth. I wrote nothing, reading the Parade piece yesterday, deciding to 'sleep on it' instead.

Michelle Obama Joins Washington's Female Power Center To Honor Sojourner Truth

Alice Walker Reads Sojourner Truth

"I hope that Sojourner Truth would be proud to see me, a descendant of slaves, serving as the first lady of the United States of America," Mrs. Obama said to loud applause at a ceremony at the Capitol Visitor Center.

Let's hope that the angel dust of Soujourner Truth drifted down to the Capitol Visitors Center today, as First Lady Michelle Obama joined Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas and others to unveil the bronze bust of Sojourner Truth, the first Black woman to be so honored at the Capitol.

(AP Photo/Manuel Balce Ceneta)Truth's famous speech "Ain't I a Woman" was delivered at a women's rights convention in Akron, Ohio, in 1851.

Smart Sensuality Woman Michelle Obama Knows that Veggies are Good for Feminism

President Obama isn't the only member of Team Obama getting a First 100 Days report card. First Lady Michelle Obama is also on the 'firing line'.

Not to worry. We all know that FLOTUS has charmed the world at large and Americans at home, especially American women of every political persuasion.

Simply stated, we love the sum and substance of Michelle Obama, and that love isn't skip deep. We love her soul, spirit, and stylish ways, her sound judgement and sensuality. Michelle possesses the intellectual brilliance of Hillary Clinton and the nurturing warmth of Laura Bush.

As a Cultural Creative, Smart Sensuality woman, Michelle Obama leads with her senses, in concert with her brainpower. She is a new model of excellence in womanhood, refusing to abandon core female principles, to gain success in the corner office.

Many Modern women don't understand this life strategy, believing that Michelle leaves her fully-realized, best self underdeveloped, because she doesn't operate like a Hillary Clinton (who I supported) policy wonk. (Please note that Hillary is now taking a few lessons from Michelle's playbook.)

Michelle Obama leads the pack in this new 'style' of powerful, influential Smart Sensuality woman, leaving some women confused about her priorities, because they define effectiveness differently than Michelle-Style.

Michelle Obama Sends Young Women a Message: 'We're Counting on You'

Finishing her long but exhiliarating day, spent fanning out over Washington's inner city schools, with her 21-woman 'dream team', the First Lady, sent a gracious and inspiring message to the young women present at tonight's White House festivities. Attending were her own daughters, Sasha and Malia and mom Marian Robinson.
