Michelle Obama Turns 50

Tweets picture of AARP card

Michelle Obama is celebrating her 50th birthday Friday.

The first lady is spending the day out of sight, with no public appearances after back-to-back White House events this week.

But she tweeted a picture of herself holding up her AARP card. She tweeted, quote, "Excited to join Barack" in the 50-plus club today. "check out my @AARP card!"

President Barack Obama turned 50 in 2011.

First I've heard about it. Why didn't CNN or ABC publish multiple reflective articles full of praise for the First Lady and her achievement of not dying for 50 years?

She is one of the better looking first ladies we've had.

Not saying much. Laura Bush was decent. Jackie was pretty hot. Not too much more in recent decades.

I'm trying to start an argument, not a civilized conversation.

Okay, then. YOU OBAMA WORSHIPER! YOU ARE SO IN LOVE WITH THE OBAMESSIAH THAT IT HAS CLOUDED YOUR OBVIOUSLY FLAWED OPINION OF THE ATTRACTIVENESS OF HIS WIFE!

AARP card.... why not just join the damn Communist Fascist party and be done with it? That one group has done more to destroy this country's economy than anyone perhaps except the Democratic party.

I use the Amerixcan flag for ass wipe!

He's right. Point to any other singular group that has fought to maintain unsustainable entitlements as much as AARP (besides the Democrats).
