Married and they like each other???

I ran accross this one and have to agree, it is nice to see a couple who truly seem to like each other (but not in a Cindy Mccain stepford kind of way)

The Obamas: A more perfect union
Did you see the way she was looking at him as he was sworn in as the 44th president of the United States? Did you see how many times throughout the inauguration he touched her and she touched him. A reassuring pat on the shoulder. A loving embrace. As they walked along the parade route, she tightly squeezed his hand with a huge smile across her face. Barack and Michelle Obama are hot, despite being married for 16 years and having two children. And my God, I think our new president and his wife actually have sex. Could they possibly be in love? I think so.

Barack and Michelle sitting in a tree: K-I-S-S-I-N-G.
One of the greatest benefits of an Obama presidency is so often forgotten but it's right out there in plain sight: the healthy relationship between Michelle and Barack. Married couples rejoice! We finally have a positive role model. This is refreshing after the litany of past political couples' dysfunctional relationships. The Clintons, the Spitzers, and even the Kennedys, who almost never held hands or showed affection in public.
The Obamas aren't afraid of PDA. Remember when Barack won the Democratic nomination? The frisky couple were all over each other--and so were supporters celebrating the victory. The news networks started showing footage of couples smooching at Obama parties all over the country. The New York Daily News even predicted that there would be a baby boom if Obama won the election. And now that he has won the election, do you think his healthy marriage will trickle down? Will his romantic relationship with his wife inspire us all to start holding hands again? Can our new president save our world--and our marriages?
