Life in the Little Lane: Edith Ann on the Obama Family Interview

Did everybody see the big interview with the Obama family? I enjoyed it. I wish I’d been with them, but they have enough worries – they don’t need me hanging around. I love to see happy families being happy, don’t you?
But have you heard all the talk about the questions not being hard-hitting enough? Give me a break. What should those cute kids have been asked, for Heaven’s sake?
Did you ever hear your Mom and Dad say anything bad about Hillary?
Has your Dad ever lied to you?
Do your Mom and Dad ever have a heated argument? If so, what do they argue about?
Do you make good grades?
Who is the boss around the house?
How much is your allowance? Can you live on it?
What do you think about the photos in Vanity Fair that Hannah Montana took?
What are your favorite websites?
What are your favorite books?
What do you think about what Jesse Jackson said about your Dad?
I loved the interview, myself. The only thing I would’ve added was, when the girls said they wanted to get ice cream later, I would’ve certainly asked what their favorite flavor of ice cream was. It may not have been hard-hitting, but it would certainly be something we would all want to know.
