At home, like in the economic sector, Barack Obama would like to instill a few regulations for the common good. But he doesn’t always succeed.

Case in point: Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

Even the most loyal Tea Party members might have trouble deciding: Who is worse for this country?

In a new interview with iVillage, Michelle Obama says she and her husband keep an eye on what daughters Sasha and Malia watch on television, but they can’t control all programming choices.

“Barack really thinks some of the Kardashians – when they watch that stuff – he doesn’t like that as much,” the First Lady said, clearly trying to choose her words carefully. “But I sort of feel like… if they’re learning the right lessons, like, that was crazy, then I’m like, okay.”

In other words: the actions of Kim Kardashian and kompany are crazy! But, hey, even if Tea Party members want you to believe this isn’t true with Obama in charge, it’s a free country. Watch what you want.
