Let’s All Honor our Mothers by Ogling Michelle Obama’s Arms!
Excuse me while I throw up a little in my mouth.
“May I change the subject,” said a prominent Washington theologian at a recent dinner. The conversation had been high-minded — religion, philosophy, the nature of evil. “I’d like to talk about Michelle Obama’s arms,” he said.
He is a big fan of those arms. We then began a discussion about the significance of the first lady’s arms. Actually, it turned out to be equally serious. Michelle Obama’s arms, we determined, were transformational. Her arms are representative of a new kind of woman: young, strong, vigorous, intelligent, accomplished, sexual, powerful, embracing and, most of all, loving.
And we know this because…well…hmmm…
…we just know, all right? Sally Freaking Quinn, Herald of American Motherhood, and an actual theologian said so. I mean, if they say Michelle Obama’s arms are to be worshipped, then who the hell are we to argue?
Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to call my Mom for a while. Oh, she doesn’t have big Michelle Obama guns, but she sacrificed more than I can ever repay to raise nine children as a stay-at-home mother. She instilled in all of us the deep and abiding virtues of faith, freedom, and family and, even though she’ll never adorn the cover of People Magazine, she is worth a million million Sally Quinn hagiographies.
