'I love him to death': Michelle Obama says George W. Bush is her 'partner in crime' at official functions


Former first lady Michelle Obama and former President George W. Bush went viral last month when Bush was caught on camera giving Obama a cough drop during Sen. John McCain's Washington funeral service.

Michelle said the gesture may have struck a chord because people are "hungry" for bipartisanship and evidence that political party, race, and gender aren't dividers.
"I love him to death. He's a wonderful man. He's a funny man," Michelle said of her husband's predecessor.

explained that the two are often seated next to each other at official gatherings that include the former presidents.

“I didn’t realize at the time that anybody noticed what we were doing… He is my partner in crime at every major thing where all the formers gather… I love him to death.” @MichelleObama talks about George W.

"He is my partner in crime at every major thing where all the 'formers' gather," she said. "So we're together all the time, and I love him to death. He's a wonderful man. He's a funny man."

The former first lady added that she was surprised that the cough drop Bush passed her from his wife, Laura Bush, came in a White House box.


Michelle, who appeared on NBC to promote the International Day of the Girl and launch an Obama Foundation initiative aimed at empowering girls around the world through education, said the gesture may have struck a chord because people are "hungry" for leaders who can rise above the political fray.

"Party doesn't separate us, color, gender, those kinds of things don't separate us. It's the message that we send," Obama said. "If we're the adults in the room and we're not showing that level of decency, we can't expect our children to do the same."

This is because he truly is a nice guy. So is Barack Obama, IMO. I have a blast doing things at ballgames, parties and various other functions with those whom I disagree politically. You’re right, in this day of “you gotta hate the other side” it is very cool to see this.

Yes hon, they're all in the club, and you ain't.

Privatized gains versus socialized losses for the Wall Street bankster class
Internalized profits versus externalized risk and expense for the "job creator" class
Socialism for the aristocracy versus laissez-faire capitalism for the masses.

How did they disagree? Both administrations bailed out Wall Street with socialism. Obama took Bush's 2 wars to 7? Was that it?
