This is Gina I saw this video over at MSNBC and it had Michelle Obama Watch written all over it.

Not to long ago, the list of her public detractors was long and her vocal public defenders nearly non existent. We knew back when we started this site that the media “image” of Michelle Obama was erroneous driven mainly by an inability to put her in a stereotypical box. Gone are the days when delusional people tried to portray her as an ABW. Now she’s Mentor-in-Chief and we’re loving it!
We’ve had a wildly hilarious year here on this blog. I still can’t believe we’re still rolling. Certainly when we started, I didn’t know we’d be here over a year later, but this is truly PURE JOY.
We have some great members in the MOW community and I’m excited about some new MOW-related projects in 2010. We’re going to enjoy every second of First Lady Obama being in the White House!
If I don’t see you before then, Happy Holidays and I’ll see you on the other side of 2009!

I am so glad I came upon you guys here at MOW. I think by now anyone who comes here know how I feel about this First Lady. She has had a wonderful year and I am here to tell you that she will only get better. Even with all the mess she and her husband have dealt with, they both have shown class, grace, and diginity. Merry Christmas to the Obama Family.

Thanks for all of your efforts with this website. You’re doing an awesome job covering one of the most fascinating people since…forever. Mrs. Obama’s community action, volunteer efforts are bordering on unprecedented greatness – and we’re only in the first year of their term! To all of her fashion critics, the fact that she dares to dress herself, and err occasionally, is so much more refreshing than team-styled perfection. It makes her all the more interesting to watch. And I am loving the view on MOW. Kudos on the site. A++

Well, Admin this is all down to you! Happy 1st Anniversary!
Michelle Obama Watch is a very special site, and it’s been a pleasure and privilege seeing your role in getting more balanced, and multi-dimensional facets of Michelle out there. Oh, yes…how people have come around. Mentor-in-Chief, indeed!
There are some wonderfully opinionated people on here, and I love having this arena to share and “hear” all of our views.
Here’s to the gorgeous First Lady, here’s to you, and all of your hard work in creating this….. and here’s to all of us who are so very glad that we’ve got our beloved MOW site!

Bill O’Rielly comments about the First Lady when he met her for the first time the other night. He said she was stunning,warm and kind to his 10 year old daughter. She is strong, charismatic, and beautiful. Did the Glen Beck and his followers just fall off their hate wagon? But O’Rielly saw what we’ve been seeing all along. We have a very nice First Lady. And I look forward to watching her in 2010. By the way, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, to you all out there.

Rome is burning and you all are lusting over MO?
Really? Her husband just sold women down the river on reproductive rights, but hey isn’t MO a cool package for keeping her mouth shut.
Come on! Strong women support women, even if that means telling their husbands to not sign a bill that hurts choice for women!

Merry Christmas TIPPER!!!!! Take a pill and chill, will you? Rome is no way burning and I see no one lusting after MO. What bill have the President sign that hurts choice for women? Michelle can not make the President do anything, if she had open her mouth , does that mean the President would have done different. She is his wife not his boss. I’m still waiting to hear what bill it was that the President sign that has you going alittle coo-coo !!!!

Before I say too much about what TIPPER said, I want to know what it is she is talking about, so I can know what I’m talking about.

Merry Christmas TIPPEER! We love you too! This blog has been and will always be a celebration of First Lady Michelle Obama. We are unapologetically apolitical, even fluffy at times. We do fluff! We enjoy fluff! At a time when the world is going mad and everyone is angst filled- we are unapologetic about preserving this as a tranquil oasis of chilling out!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
