The Obamas go Access Hollywood
So, is this, to borrow a bitter phrase, good for Michelle Obama’s children? Just asking. Access Hollywood gets the scoop on the Obama daughters’ fashion and etiquette advice for dad in a four-part interview. The Obamas let the cameras roll while the family celebrated older daughter Malia’s birthday last week:
In an Access Hollywood exclusive interview, Senator Barack Obama and his wife Michelle, along with daughters Malia, 10 and Sasha, 7 open up about rules, what it is like for friends to meet dad, communicating on the trail, potential plans for moving into the White House and more.
The four-part interview will air on Access Hollywood, Tuesday, July 8th,Wednesday, July 9th and Thursday, July 10th.
Access Hollywood’s Maria Menounos caught up with the Obama family on the campaign trail in Butte, Montana to celebrate Malia’s 10th birthday and Independence Day.
Now that the Primary is over, the Obamas manage to get more family time together explains Michelle. “Barack is home at least once a week. We’re really doing family stuff. We are going on bike rides, going swimming and playing tennis.”
The girls also give advice to their dad about everything from etiquette to fashion. One time when a friend of Malia’s came over, he shook her hand to say hello. Malia recalls telling her dad, “You really don’t shake kids’ hands that much…You just wave or say hi.”
…When asked what they do that makes mommy and daddy mad, both girls were quick to comment. Sasha says whining…
Runs in the family, I guess.
Hat tip: JWF.
***
The Obamas also invited 60 Minutes to come film the family making tuna fish sandwiches earlier this year–you know, to show what a regular guy he is. Question: Who the hell puts Grey Poupon and gherkins (don’t ask me what those are, I have no idea) in tuna sandwiches for kids?

Boortz is sooooo right when he calls this an American Idol election.
So, liberals make the Obamamessiah mad…
Liberals are always whining!!
This is vomit-inducing fluff.
A 4 part interview? No media bias there at all. NNNNNOOOOOOO of course not. I wonder if they give the interviewer knee pads…
Wow, what a scoop Barack is wearing old pants and belt and does’nt like to shop, I’m shocked
that he is like 99.9% of men. What is happening to society? 
I think I just threw up a little…I knew I shouldn’t have had that late breakfast.
Where’s the all-important arugula?
Pickles
Basuda.
Gherkins are pickles. Never liked them myself.
Whatever happened to plain old tuna fish sandwiches? How about mayo, celery and a dash of salt/pepper? Plain and simple.
I wonder in the next gripping episode we find out he is wearing holey underwear.
I just wish someone in the BHO family would define “change” for me.
Because other than causing us to lose Iraq in an unparalleled early-withdrawal, and quadrupling unemployment levels by doubling the capital gains tax rates, I still do not understand what BH Obama means when he says he wants change.
So, now that Michelle and the kids are putting themselves really really really really really in-your-face out there, is it okay to talk about them? Or are they still off-limits?
Hypocracy, thy name is liberal
I might have to try Dijon with my tuna now.
You don’t know what gherkins are?
Breath taking.
google
That took all of 2 seconds
basuda explained.
I think I am going to be sick….
Yep, the Onion had it right. Nope, not of the horse or cow variety, but of the bull-type.
Sweet pickles. I like ‘em. But sweet relish and mayo is what you want for tuna fish. A little celery and onions is good too.
I’m hungry.
I happened upon a nice commentary on Good Morning America about Cindy McCain (complete with photos of her working on her many humanitarian causes). I was shocked, shocked, I tell you to see something complimentary about the McCains. All of this “at home” Obama stuff is just a staged photo-op for them. They have no proven track record of ever doing something for their country or for the plight of others as has Cindy McCain.
Who cares?
I can’t believe that Access Hollywood is doing fluff pieces like this. Can’t we please get back to the lack of underwear on young starlets and “TomKat’s” latest adventures on Oprah’s couch?
The best tuna sandwich is made with a little bit of Old Bay seasoning mixed in with the tuna on top of potato bread.
The somewhat more sweet flavor of the potato bread provides a nice counterbalance to the tang and saltiness of the tuna mixture.
I hope this does not make me elitist.
I’d tell you what gherkins is but You’d probably ban me from this site. Let’s just say it is probably being used as a mayonnaise substitute. Yuck!
Obama’s campaign may go down as the greatest PR and Marketing campaign in history, and they have millions of private funds to support it.
He is talking about the pocket change you are going to have leftover when he is done. So stand by, he wants that also.
Is all this hero worship good for Michelle’s children?
It is rumored M.O. played the role of Chief Martian in the movie Martian Attacks! She may be negotiating her next role in When Martians Take The White House. To protect the innocent and Spike Jones, the White House will be referred to as the Neighborhood, or in Spike vernacular, the hood. Spike will be in charge of insuring appropriate numbers of the hood, disorientate to their importance, are assigned Martian roles. This movie will be the first of a trilogy titled Get Use to It Cracked He Promised Change.
There is necessary phoniness, and there is all phony all the time.
This…this is a joke, right? Are you suggesting Grey Poupon makes you elitist? Or are you suggesting that children shouldn’t eat Grey Poupon because, I dunno, because it’s too spicy?
This needs further explanation. If someone can make me a list of what foods are “elitist” and what foods aren’t, it’s be greatly appreciated.
Will I be a coastal elite when I put avocados on my kids sandwiches?
I feel sorry for Rusty. Going through life without a sense of humour.
And for the next Access Hollywood edition, Senator McCain and his lovely wife at home surrounded by medals and trophies and really cool scaled down fighter jets all over the walls and hanging from the ceiling…
Pictures of true Americans in UNIFORM and ….
nahh, way to AMERICAN for Hollyweird and this might pull votes from the B.Hussein All American DECEIVER. Can’t have that now, can we.
Yep – seems like everything that guy does angers people.
He can’t even have lunch without people getting all bent.
I would suppose that gherkins is the Arugula of pickles.
Any you can’t mention anything that is not positive about Obama without Ilovemycountry getting all bent, either.
“…potential plans for moving into the White House…”
I can’t describe the sick feeling I got in my stomach when I read that.
Now can Mama Obama be proud? For me and mine we shall never eat tunafish sandwhichs again, if I ever had. Does Senator Barack Hussein Obama eat pork? Does Senator Barack Hussein Obama have a dog? Inquiring minds want to know.
Real Americans only use French’s Yellow Mustard, Rusty. If you are paying over $.09/oz for your mustard you are a Communist liberal baby killer.
Maybe on special occasions, like Christmas or Reagan’s birthday, you can splurge on some Gulden’s Spicy Brown.
In B. Hussein Obama’s case, that would be ‘holy’ underwear…
Now, on to addressing Rusty’s lack of humor and chapoutier’s transparent mockery…
false outrage doesn’t suit you,
and, chap, Reagan’s birthday is better than Christmas in my case. But I prefer Dom Perignon for Feb.6.
How dare you insinuate he is elite our out of touch with the regular person.
wow… lol
Anyone else notice anything strange about that picture from Access Hollywood?
Obama is about a head taller than Michelle in the picture, while they are close to the same height. Makes Barak look like a big man, and Michelle O look like the “little woman”. Hollywood at its best (or worst).
what’s wrong with pickles in tuna?
anyway, i’m sure he picked up on that grey poupon while slumming as a community organizer.
Tell me about it!
The problem isn’t that he uses Grey Poupon and gherkins instead of yellow mustard and dills. It is that he is putting mustard on a tuna sandwich. This guy is not qualified to be president if he doesn’t use mayonaise.
Whatever happened to “Leave Michelle alone?”
“…potential plans for moving into the White House…”
Yup.
Welcome to the club. This and a hundred other things to get sick about when it comes to the possibility of Obama being the next president.
You all need to go to American Thinker and read about Obama and Chicago politics. This needs to be a major story. I know it won’t be but Chicago is so dirty it makes a pig sty look clean.
If Obama is elected, Chicago will be the new center of government. Don’t know about you, but that makes me sick.
Dom Perignon is overrated, imho. Try Krug or Charles Heidsieck.
He did use mayo as well, see about 29 seconds into the video. The mustard was just extra. I assume now that this has been cleared up, he will be getting your vote.
Ah yes, Maria Menounos. Isn’t she the intrepid reporter who uncovered the Rezko/Obama money connection in Chicago? Or was she the stalwart journalist who disclosed the fact that Obama had only been a sitting US Senator for 143 days before he ran for President? Or maybe she’s the gumshoe who who craftily uncovered the impossibility of Obama’s father being flown from Africa to the US by the benevolent Kennedy family, or his parents meeting on the bridge in Selma, AL. Or is she the unflappable beat reporter trying to get a handle on exactly where Obama’s real birth certificate might be?
Oh….my bad. Maria Menounos is the vapid entertainment reporter who gives a daily countdown to Angelina Jolie’s next baby.
Wow, way to push the envelope, Obama’s!
Maybe Obama will give Menounos a ‘one on one’ if (God forbid) he ever becomes Commander In Chief and has to blow al Qaeda to kingdom come:
Obama: Well Maria, today we dealt a historical blow to al Qaeda by successfully bombing every city inside Pakistan. Just like former President Bill Clinton, we destroyed all of our targets and met all of our objectives without killing one civilian or US soldier.
Maria: Oooooooo…that sounds sooooo exciting. What were you wearing?!
Again…Barry Obama the media phenomena.
This guy is like a freaking hot air balloon…with the press blowing, blowing and blowing to make him and his big fat head all inflated and visible for all to see.
So, who’s the white lady in the photo?
I heard from a friend who heard from a friend that Obama fathered a white child.
That or else it is the reporter, Maria Menounos.
The marketing of the Obama family in “Leave it to Beaver” style is the phoniest ploy ever.
It just honestly must be going against the fundamental mentality and mindset of that marxist/racist America hating family.
It may play well with his mindless following but it quite frankly is a “no sale” with me.
OMG! I LOVE sweet gherkins. Does…does…does that mean I’m like Obama?!!
I should just end it now…
Oh, the agony…
Rusty said
Answer: Yes
Wait til after you pull the lever in November, please.
No MrVIBEMAN, even liberals get it right once in a while.
Could the MSM try any harder to shove Obama down our throats?! What a bunch of tools.
Well, it’s hard to tell sometimes!
Now that I know it’s a joke, well played. Very dry. Ironically, that’s my style of humor. I guess I’m just not good at recognizing it.
The horrible part about this is I hate tuna fish sandwiches so I’m not even qualified to comment if mustard goes with it or not.
Not interested in your opinion on champagne. Much more interested in Feb. 6.
This dude is seriously out touch–he is like the communist leader with gold taps in his lavatory. That is why the media is pushing him onto us so forcefully…without the media & those who drink from the media’s cup of poison, he would have no believers.
Good thing they kept the Che Guevara shrine out of camera view!
Wal-Mart has sense of humors on sale, you might want to check into buying one.
That is true, but if there is one thing liberals hate more than whining, it is freedom of speech. Following this, they hate other people whining. Which then causes them to whine more themselves. Remember the last thing a whiner wants is someone else to be whining as well.
BWWAAAHHHAAAAHHHAAAA
That just made my whole week!
Yikes! Operator error re: post #25. That s/b Lee and not Jones.
Should be #27 not #25. What you drinkin? Pass it around to the rest of the class!
When is BO going to appear on O’Reilly so we can watch him studder since Bill won’t be asking about pickles. There’s more to being POTUS and First lady than giving tours of the White House at Christmas.
He’s mixing them? OMG, we are doomed. Doomed I tell you!
Took the words right out of my mouth (I was going to say flag). Wonder if Obama or Maria was the one to move it?
Just wonderin’ if they eat pork.
I would like to see his book collection!
When I was working at Whole Foods we would often mix a container of mayo, half a container of yellow mustard, and about 8 pounds of crab to make our crab cakes. Add a dash of Worchestire and some peppers and you’re all set. Very tasty. Not elitist.
Mmmmmmmm pork!
mustard on tuna is wrong period. i dont care which brand. the gerks on the side, cool they’re good but sweet pickle relish, green onions, celery finely chopped and mayo in the mix and voila! el magnifico! and if you have a bakery that makes sheepherders bread, then you are in tuna sandwich heaven and dont forget the lettuce.
in the winter add a side cup-o-tomato basil soup and you will be in great shape to hit the slopes.
“I feel sorry for Rusty. Going through life without a sense of humour.”
Word is that arugula is a good substitute for laughter.
Pre-election treatment by 60 minutes:
2008 Obama – tuna sandwich story
2004 Bush – forged document story
Notice that if it had been a Republican nominee making tuna sandwiches with the family, 60 minutes would have added to the narrative the plight of dolphins trapped in the nets of tuna fisherman accompanied with video of such mishaps.
BO on BO? Replacing a spitter with a stutterer? That I have to miss (along with all of his shows since MM left).
Mustard and mayo actually do work in many seafood applications. Many traditional crabcake recipes use mayo and mustard together to bind the crab meat together.
and use albacore not that other poop.
Has anyone gone into Wholefoods lately and checked out the price of crab cakes?
Rusty beat me to it.
But let me add that crabcakes are much better broiled than fried. I think broiling preserves the delicate flavor of the crab much more.
And AJ, albacore is elitist. Why don’t you just whip out your ACLU member card?
That Osama Obama doesn’t have the gugliones to debate McCain and yet lets Access Hollywood slobber all over him tells us all we need to know.
15 yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct!
OT
for fisherman or women out there the best use for mustard other than on a hot dog of course is to get dry mustard mix with water in a squirty bottle go out early in the a.m. and squirt a bit down the holes of earth worms they come up like theres no tomorrow and bingo bango bongo you have a can of worms to last ya the whole day of fishing.
aj, do they come up to eat it or get away from it?
but it sure is fun realing em in.
It is like nothing is real. I thought that the noise about his birth certificate was a false flag operation to sucker punch conservatives but sometimes I wonder if everything about Obama is a fake. Maybe he is like the character in Truman Show. We are just waiting to see a small dog pull the curtain and reveal the truth behind Oz.
You can tell Grey Poupon is elitist because in the commercials, a man with a highfalutin accent in a fancy car ate it. Also, if you call Polaner All Fruit “jelly,” a nearby dowager will likely be so offended that she will faint on the spot. Oh — and never, EVER make Digiorno pizza on a night when you’ve told your spouse or significant other that you’ll be handling the cooking, because you’ll never be able to satisfactorily convince them that it wasn’t actually delivery!
to get away from it, but it doesnt hurt em, still wigglin to perfecto.
Five bucks a pop. What I usually do is buy the $2 mini-crab cake and buy the frozen grey sole (3/4 of a pound for $5.99…a super bargain). I defrost the sole, cover it in buttermilk, bread it, and then stuff the crab cake in there with the help of some toothpicks. Then I pan fry that in some olive oil…about 2 minutes per side. It is amazing.
The worms eat the mustard. Then AJ baits the hook with them. When an Albacore swims by, the worm spits mustard in his eye which stuns him and then, AJ scoops them up in his net.
AJ, I’m moving to Ohio in a week and am told that I will be fishing a lot more. Thanks for the suggestion. I am sending it to my fisherlady.
We’ll have to put you in the Wayback Machine to the 80s to get ya up to speed, Rusty.
You Tube – Grey Poupon Original Commercial
To explain the “Wayback Machine”, we could send you back to the 60s. But I kinda suspect you’re stuck there anyway.
The Obamas are using their young children as props again… how precious.
This is Dr. Sowell’s take on the matter, and as usual he is spot-on in this case.
Gherkins are small but sweet pickles, just a little tart. They are actually quite delicious. I get them from time to time at the grocery store. I don’t know about putting them in tuna sandwiches, although I think it would actually be a reasonably good combination as it would add a little sweetness to the tuna. Adding grey poupon to the mixture would not be good. Grey poupon is pretty good on hot dogs where you are not looking for sweetness and the grey poupon add a nicer pop than the bland regular yellow mustard. Yesterday, I had Cuban sandiwches with a coworker for lunch and there were pickles, not the sweet Gherkins, with the ham and cheese and I must say that it was a heavenly combination. BTW, an Israeli coworker of mine says that in Israel it is common to add pickles to a falafel and that grey poupon is an interesting concept to add to the falafel.
.
Never caught a fish in my life – they must know I don’t wanna have to clean ‘em. Love chowing down the critters, though.
Anyone who uses Grey Poupon should be arrested.
ok, I’ll do it…
anyone who uses grey poop on what?
I though Obama uses Heinz ketchup anyway… Flipping again I see.
