The last thing President Barack Obama needs is a domestic crisis of gargantuan proportions, one that threatens to swallow up the NATO Chicago summit:
Michelle vs. Oprah: The catfight.
Does Michelle Obama really think Oprah Winfrey is too heavy to help in America's fight against obesity? Does Oprah really think Michelle doesn't want her "waddling around the White House"?
And did Michelle really sit with Oprah and talk endlessly about the delicious pies baked in the White House kitchen, teasing Oprah about the scrumptious flaky crusts, and then refuse to offer Oprah a slice?
I, for one, can't believe Michelle would be so cruel as to tease someone with thoughts of pie. But it's out there now. And the president has to deal with it.
The alleged feud between first lady Michelle Obama and talk show diva Oprah Winfrey is contained in Edward Klein's biography of the president, "The Amateur: Barack Obama in the White House," excerpted in the pages of the New York Post.
If it's in the Post, it must be true. No?
Michelle? Oprah? Sit down and have some pie. - Chicago Tribune
Let them eat pie.
