The last letter to the editor printed in each issue of the The Economist typically always has a witty tone, and in the latest edition, Californian Skip Kilmartin's letter made me chuckle.
SIR – Lexington accurately noted how Michelle Obama could employ her intelligence, energy and family history as a spokesperson for American values and to inspire us to work together as a society (March 21st). Lexington also mentioned that the White House has engaged in a debate with the media about whether Mrs Obama should show her “perfectly toned” upper limbs in public.Being familiar with constitutional law, perhaps Barack Obama could put this particular fashion controversy surrounding his wife to rest by referring to the second amendment’s right to bare arms.
Hyhooooo!
