    Unfortunately the full honor of a traditional Glamour cover has not been bestowed upon the First Lady, as she is still reasonably recognizable in her airbrushed glory.

    Also, I wonder if one of the stipulations made by Mrs. O and her people was the absence of inane coverlines surrounding her image. There's nothing about a Secret Sex Spot or Boobs!! or Sex Slavery Escapees. Refreshing. #michelleobamaglamourcover

    Michelle Obama is lovely. But I'm kind of sick of seeing her styled like a pretty pretty princess.

    I get that it's Glamour, and not Business Week or Serious Lawyers With Fancy Degrees Weekly, but falling snowflake/stars? Really? I can tell it took every ounce of restraint for them not to put her in a tiara. #michelleobamaglamourcover

    Hmmm. Obama's approval ratings are tanking and people are asking what exactly he has accomplished. Quick! Doll up Michelle and get her out there exposing her beautiful arms. Maybe everyone will forget that her hubby is supposed to be actually doing something.

    Yes, she looks beautiful.

    Yes, I am that cynical about the political process. #michelleobamaglamourcover

    @Tart of Darkness: Because female voters are so stupid that they see the first lady in a pretty dress and forget they don't have health care and we're still in a pointless war?

    @Tart of Darkness: Actually, Obama's approval ratings have been going up the past few weeks and seem to have stabilized from their summer slump.

    But don't let facts get in the way of a good conspiracy theory!

    @ShankhamalaMorpheus:

    or the fact that magazines have a lead time of what 2-4 months if not longer?

    This cover was probably discussed/sign-offed before the summer. #michelleobamaglamourcover

    @Tart of Darkness: Yup, we need Michelle in a pretty dress, because closing Guantanamo, ending torture as a military policy, adding GBLT to hate crimes protection, Cash for Clunkers, limiting executive pay for top TARP banks, extending unemployment benefits and reducing COBRA health insurance payments for the unemployed in his first 10 months in office certainly requires ladymag covers to distract from his lack of accomplishment. #michelleobamaglamourcover

    She seems to like being on the cover of fashion magazines. Can't the east wing find uncontroversial issues that do not involve family, fashion, and food for her to discuss? #michelleobamaglamourcover

    @sshacker: Seriously. I know there's going to be some kind of trite box on the side of the article along the lines of "Three Ways Michelle Pushes the Envelope: 1) Sleeveless dresses 2) Shorts and 3) Vegetable gardens!" #michelleobamaglamourcover

    @pantsless economist...access RESTORED: I think that, after the unfair ways in which she was demonized during the campaign, the East Wing has sought to soften her image but still show her as effective by giving her softballs that speak well to the American pubic. I think they're trying to ease her into a more prominent, policy-driven role by ensuring that the nation is "comfortable" with her first so as to not end up in the same sort of situation that Hillary Clinton found herself in. #michelleobamaglamourcover

    Glamour - how dare you fly in the face of my "use models not just famous people on magazine covers" argument with the awesomeness of Michelle, causing me to re-think the whole thing. How dare you. #michelleobamaglamourcover

    I eagerly await the pearls of wisdom housed in that "Relax! 7 reasons guys love you just the way you are" story. Which, will inevitably be followed by a spread about how to make yourself sexier to please a man, then 40 diet tips from a celebrity trainer and then the requisite "HEY! It's ok to..." piece. The cognative dissonance required to read one of those magazines cover to cover is more than my noggin is capable of exercising. #michelleobamaglamourcover

    @lilbobbytables: They get nothing from me. I got a box of pads a while back and it had a code for a free sub to certain mags. I was on the fence, but I think I'm gonna go home, enter the code at that Web site and get me some free ladymags. I think I'll still be able to get this one, even if a little late.

    Of course, I may have to cancel in a few months when they put a Kardashian on the cover, but at least I won't lose anything. #michelleobamaglamourcover
