Michelle Obama is taking heat for appearing in public in a pair of “short shorts.” The first lady was photographed wearing shorts at the Phoenix airport on Sunday stepping out of the presidential limo to board Airforce One en route to the Grand Canyon.

The Obamas spent the day at Grand Canyon National Park for a family outing. More pictures were snapped on their return to Phoenix as they descended the stairs of Airforce One.

This isn’t the first time the first lady has shown off her gams. She was seen walking Bo on the White House lawn on June 14th wearing a pair of longer shorts.

So what do you think? Is this much ado about nothing, or is it inappropriate attire for a first lady? Drop a comment and let us know.
