Totally not out-of-touch (wink wink) Michelle Obama had lunch with U2 lead singer and activist Bono in Ireland today. Journos, some squeeing madly, tweeted out photos from the scene.

Ah sure there's Mrs. Obama going for a spot of lunch in Finnegans, (accompanied by 15 cars full of burly lads) http://t.co/VeUePoe3DO

Huh. Funny that. No breathless reports of a $900 blouse or anything? Also not reported:

Did she leave her “fair share” or not? The people want to know!
Some of the public weren’t so impressed.
#G8 Pity poor Malia and Sasha Obama, if they were bored already imagine how they're feeling now #lunchwithbono #bono http://t.co/IHZyk6vpMS

Oh for the love of… *facepalm* RT @TodayFMNews: Michelle Obama to have lunch with Bono in Dalkey – what will they talk about?
— ?Paul Anthony Ward ☀️? (@PaulAnthonyWard) June 18, 2013
@GregHughes2 Sadly, I think it would. We're a planet of idol-worshippers. The coverage of Michelle Obama's lunch sickens me to my stomach.

Bit of a shock for the regulars at Finnegan's Pub in Dalkey when Michelle Obama and half the Secret Service rocked up for lunch. #Dublin
— Just Frank (@bluredfrank) June 18, 2013
Well, the pub did tweet out the news:
We will be closed to the public until after lunch tomorrow. #Dalkey
— Finnegans Dalkey (@FinnegansDalkey) June 17, 2013
Still, some people just want to eat their lunches in peace.
Is Bono still eating with the Obama ladies? I want to go get my lunch
— Miss Omens (@missomens) June 18, 2013
Crowd is getting anxious here in Dalkey. Teenagers asking: "who needs over an hour to have lunch". 🙂 #obama

This Twitter user has the right idea.
