Former White House Press Secretary: Raise a cup...to the First Lady
18:56
The communications challenges the administration faced this week were obvious and dominated the news.

But I'd like to pause a moment and raise my Saturday morning cup of tea to the First Lady. She had a good week -- her idea to host an East Room event celebrating women at and then to have many of her guests fan out across the city to touch the lives of some students was excellent, and the photographs of the surprised children were priceless. And her new garden is exciting and perhaps will inspire others to try to do the same in their own backyards, albeit on a much smaller scale. I'd be happy if I could grow just one carrot on my rooftop - but still.

Often during the last eight years, Mrs. Bush would have that kind of week while we frantically tried to manage multiple stories. She could manage a book festival, a State dinner, read to students at a local school, spread the word about breast cancer and heart disease and visits with families of the fallen all in one week. She was often the only one getting good press in a given week!

The office of the First Lady is a wonderful place to be -- creative seeds can be planted and harvested rather quickly, and Mrs. Obama's team has the knack that Mrs. Bush's team had for interesting, intriguing policy proposals and picture-perfect events.
