Oh Good God People Michelle Obama Is Not Pregnant

by Sara K. Smith

This proves nothing.Do you recall, back in August, right around the time Michelle Obama gave her nice speech at the Democratic National Convention, how Rush Limbaugh was blabbing to anyone who would listen about how she was totally knocked up? She looked it, too, from certain angles! People got all excited, because whoever heard of a presidential candidate — let alone a president — who actually liked his wife enough to have sex with her?

So now we are in the middle of yet another manufactured news story centered on a couple of photos of Michelle Obama with wrinkling fabric around her abdomen. This proves exactly nothing, as the nature and position of the wrinkles seem not to progress in the “getting larger” direction, as would happen in a normal human pregnancy.

In case nobody noticed, Mrs. Obama is kind of a big girl. She is a million feet tall and not a wilting cadaverous career anorexic with premature onset osteoporosis. This does not mean she is pregnant. It is very sweet, but also a little gross, that our nation is so taken with the fact that we have a young, attractive couple in the White House that we cannot stop fantasizing about them having hot procreative sex together constantly. But Michelle Obama just turned 45 years old and, unlike Sarah Palin, is smart enough to avoid a high-risk pregnancy at her age.

Although that said, the one thing we learned about baby-havin’ from Sarah Palin is that the least pregnant-looking ladies are generally the ones who are totally knocked up. The mystery continues!

Plus, babies are carried on the front side of the body.

4tehlulz January 29, 2009 at 9:27 am

Rush was just freaking out because he was writing some Barry/Mitch McConnell slash and a Michelle pregnancy would totally ruin the illusion that it could happen.

ManchuCandidate January 29, 2009 at 9:28 am

Does Rush even know how women get pregnant?

Hint: No stork involved unless that’s your kink.

Serolf Divad January 29, 2009 at 9:29 am

But is she really the mother of this non existent baby? I want to see medical records, as does my pal Andrew Sullivan.

AngryBlakGuy January 29, 2009 at 9:30 am

…her ASS looks pregnant!

Naked Bunny with a Whip January 29, 2009 at 9:30 am

Obviously, Michelle should dispel these rumors by appearing nude in public, frequently, from now on. So should her husband, to be safe, also.

hharlowe January 29, 2009 at 9:32 am

Mandatory abortion, stat.

Altho, to be honest, it would make her even hotter if she had a baby bulge in the summer, knowwhutImsayin?

It seems odd that the R’s are “fantasizing about them having hot procreative sex together” since most R’s seem interested in types of sex that cannot result in procreation.

OMG, she is teh hott. Repugs just don’t know what to do with a woman with curves, because they’re too used to 17-year-old twinks.

If she’s preggers, she’s going to shit that baby out…I kid, she’s beyootiful!

Oh, great. Breeders in the White House. Maybe they can have a litter, like that lady in California! PREMANENT DEMCRATIC MAJORITYZ!

If she is preggers, Conservadepia will have a new entry debating whether she is carrying the anti-christ. Check for a ring of three sixes, the mark of the beast.

darbyogill January 29, 2009 at 9:40 am

Also, it will be such a great day when a woman — any woman — in the public eye can appear in public without having the concave abs and not suddenly be beleaguered with national rumors that she’s preggo. It’s bad enough when a co-worker or ignorant cashier or something says, “Hey, congratulations!” when all you are is bloated and menstrual — can you imagine it on a national scale?! Poor MO.

Naked Bunny with a Whip January 29, 2009 at 9:42 am

@shanemacgowan: Since when have Republicans been consistent in what they want others to do versus what they do?

Cape Clod January 29, 2009 at 9:43 am

They were saying the same things about Howard Taft when he was in the White House.

PeteJayhawk v2.0 January 29, 2009 at 9:46 am

You get what’s happening here, right?

The wingnuts are blowing up the preggo rumors so that, when she doesn’t have a kid, they can claim she had an abortion.

Mark it down, they’ll do it.

Colander January 29, 2009 at 9:50 am

Shucks, I was just getting into coming up with baby names: “Osama Obama”…”Trig Obama”…”Bitter Obama”…”Saddam Obama”…”Hope Obama”…say, that last one would work! “Honey, would you please change Hope?”

BruceLee5000 January 29, 2009 at 9:53 am

I was fantasing about a new Obamaby during the Election on my own, no Rethuglickin rumors need.
If it were another girl, do you think they could get away with naming her “HOPE”?

That would rock so hard. The country would SWOON!

rocktonsammy January 29, 2009 at 9:54 am

One of Limbaugh’s whores said he/she needed a bag of flour to pour on his winkie just to find his whet spot.

Tommy Says Soooo January 29, 2009 at 9:58 am

If she was preggers, the country would be riveted by the Obama divorce story, as this one would have to be born out of wedlock to appease the Republicans and Bob Shrum. Then they could have a summer wedding in the White House in 2012, get on the cover of People and make Carson Kressley cry. Wins all around.

magic titty January 29, 2009 at 9:59 am

Rush Limbaugh looks pregnant all the time. What’s his fucking problem (besides being an under-educated, drug addicted bigot) anyway?

President Beeblebrox January 29, 2009 at 9:59 am

[re=231459]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: And a fine arse it is.

I can think of about 10,000 worse things to happen than Michelle getting pregnant, starting with Limbaugh getting pregnant.

Damn. The foolproof birth control is not in play. This means she and I, her ivory lover, (and all the others) must be extremely careful about skulking around and making whoopee behind the Obama’s back. Ayatollah Obama could easily have someone put to death or sent to the labor camps if he were displeased. It is a dangerous time for the first lady’s lovers.

Rush is just freaked out because
1-he fears more black people in the world
2-it’s sex involving a girl, which Republicans don’t really understand
3-it’s sex Not involving diapers, which Rush doesn’t un derstand
4-Barry gets laid without money changing hands, and to Rush that has to be a totally mysterious happeneing, i mean look at him.

Rush Limbaugh is pregnant with cankles.

Jollity January 29, 2009 at 12:16 pm

I seem to remember Cherie Blair was about the same age when she was pregnant with her youngest (and this was while Tony was PM, yes) and that kid didn’t turn out to have any problems. Still, someone with a smaller gut than mine – and I couldn’t possibly be pregnant – needs to offer more proof before I personally will start offering congratulations.

Lascauxcaveman January 29, 2009 at 12:16 pm

My wife, who incidentally is just a few months younger than Michelle O, usually announces the arrival of her monthly curse by saying to me, out of the earshot of our kids, “Well, it looks like we’re not pregnant again.”

Here’s how it went this month:
WIFE: “Well, it looks like were not pregnant again.”
ME: “Um, OK. Good, I guess.”
WIFE: “Good, right? Because we’re getting older. You know?”
ME: “Yes. I … um, that is I think, you know, the risk factors increasing with age and …”
WIFE: “Soooo … you don’t want to have any more kids. Right?”
ME: “Right. That’s right. (pause) Well, not with you anyway…”

(Why, yes, I am the stupidest male human on the face of the Earth. How did you guess?)

When this rumor was floating this summer, my favorite concern trolls from the left were FURIOUS!! that the Obamas could be so IRRESPONSIBLE!! to get pregnant when we clearly needed Michelle to focus on KICKING RETHUGLICAN ASSES!! Like a preggers Michelle wouldn’t have brought in about another million votes from the breeders who would be so excited to see their obsession with shitting out babies validated by the first family…

Although I feel compelled to agree, heartily, with those who point out that a woman who appears to be strong, beautiful and healthy, as opposed to anorexic, does not equal knocked up, it might be fun to have a Tony Blair style whoops baby in the White House.

Blair’s wife was 46 when she had their suprise bundle, and I confess it was entertaining as all get out to see that generally unflappable dude, even in the face of teh terrorism and whatnot, holding a press conference to say, HOLY SHIT! I MADE A BABY! SERIOUSLY! I HAVE SPERM! AND THEY CAN STILL SWIM!

sarcasticusername January 29, 2009 at 1:47 pm

i saw one piece of so called evidence where she was viewed slightly from the side, and arrow pointed at her thigh declaring it a baby bump. now i know a lot of white folks these days aren’t used to seeing those on a woman, but no her thigh is not a baby about to pop out of her.

She would only look pregnant for people who think babies are carried in the behind; let me clarify – they are not.

AngelaB: Are you illiterate? Did I say anything to insult curvy women? No. In my joke I was assuming that readers would be aware of the fact that Rush Limbaugh has insulted HRC’s ankles and Michelle’s stomach. Ironically he is a fat turd. But no, I would never, have never insulted curvy women because when I indulge my lesbian side, I like to hold some tits and ass. Let’s see you try and misinterpret that!

Oh it’s something far worse than pregnancy … Michele is getting fat.

Well at least when she visits the oval office in her new muumuu she’ll fit right in.

But not a big stupid mean-spirited egomaniacal blowhard like Rush. Rush could look like Johnny Depp, and have that voice and those opinions, and I’ll bet he still wouldn’t be able to get laid for free.

Lionel Hutz Esq. January 29, 2009 at 3:42 pm

But she has to be pregnant. I mean, when you look at them, how can you not imagine Barack feeding her liquor and LSD, dragged her to a Vegas hotel room and then savagely penetrated every orifice in her little body with his throbbing, uncircumcised member.

Lionel Hutz Esq. January 29, 2009 at 3:43 pm

And let’s face it, Barack needs to knock her up, because how can he succeed without a male heir to continue his reign? I’ll be damned if we are going back to a Bush again.
