If it weren’t for the National Enquirer’s outstanding work on the John Edwards “Baby Mama” story, this new story would easy to laugh off. But nobody’s laughing. Especially Barack Obama.
Michelle Obama – cracking under the pressure of being First Lady – is drinking way more than she should, friends fear.
Longtime pals have been keeping a close eye on her White House booze intake for months, sources told The ENQUIRER, and her husband President Barack Obama even stepped in when she recently consumed too much alcohol.
“When Barack saw Michelle drink more than she should at a recent dinner, he hit the roof. He told her, ‘This is NOT going to turn into a problem!'” a close source told The ENQUIRER.
“Barack is overly sensitive to the issue because of his own past drinking and substance abuse problems. But he also feels guilty because of the pictures taken of him drinking beer at an NBA game recently.”
The President also feels he may have contributed to his wife’s alcohol issues by not stopping her from overindulging during their date night in New York City on May 30.
Michelle, 45, knocked back “a glass or two of champagne” while the couple flew to the Big Apple on a private jet, according to the close source, and published reports said she downed two martinis during dinner at the Greenwich Village restaurant Blue Hill.
“It was clear that Mrs. Obama was having a VERY good time,” a restaurant employee told The ENQUIRER.
“There’s a real fear that she may be drinking more than she should as a result of the pressures that come along with being First Lady,” an insider divulged.
It looks like “Last call” are the First Lady’s least favorite words.

Having dinner with Douchey the Hedgehog would make me drink too--although it wouldn't be martinis. Single malt scotch old enough to vote is a much better drink--although martinis have the advantage of being able to pass for ice water in a tall glass.
Michelle Obama has a drinking habit according to her husband.

Editor:
Concerning a comment from Marie. Thank you for your opinion. Actually, Marie is a conservative who doesn't believe everything she hears until there is evidence that further supports the self destruction of a person's character. We know that politics can be a mean game that exploits bad behavior so we need to hold things together with integrity and good will. When our sons and daughters come home from two wars, we can celebrate character- heroism. Heroism should be the example and focus for the entire nation right now. Take care and God bless America!
Sorry-Michelle-
Prove it!!! I want to read about Obama's and/or Michaels's alcohol problem(s) in respected newspapers or hear about it on FOX News and national news radio stations and TV stations in California . Who believes anything the National Enquier publishes?
Who believes anything the National Enquirer publishes? How about Mrs John Edwards and Mrs Tiger Woods.
Remember when you blind leftists insisted that the John Edwards story was right wing nonsense?
I wonder if M.O. drinks Alize' or Courvoisier? Maybe she hits the MD 20/20. With one of her recent occasions where she was taped telling the ladies that they didn't need for her to leave to break out the wine - I don't doubt it. How crass and low class can you be spending all the money they do while people are unemployed and the hardest hit are minorities and even harder hit is the African American community. I don't understand the level of denial people have over these 2 jerks. All he does is blab - all she does is dig in the dirt - then go out and spend our money. If Bush or even Clinton did this there would certainly be tons of criticism by now. Can't wait for 2012!
I don't believe this lie. Besides, i believe that we all have our bad sides. Even the almighty queen of England has hers too.
If you were Michelle & had to look at that face in a mirror......................you would have reason to drink!!
If that is the case, Obama SHOULD concentrate on cleaning up Bush's messes rather than create new messes.
