Supa awkward semi-fascist not-needed irrational hate from the right-wing fueling Jack dethroning utter bullshit.

Re: Michelle Obama: Yay or nay? It really was a "huh?" moment, and not in a good way. I had a hard time explaining why with my party last night, but more or less the same reasons as you've articulated. If you have to get political, do it through an acceptance speech, it's way less tacky.

Re: Michelle Obama: Yay or nay? Nay - nothing against her, just against the federal government in general. There really should be no doubt that the presidency has become a functional monarchy.

Re: Michelle Obama: Yay or nay? Yay. I admire her in general, so I did not mind seeing her announce the best picture winner, even if it came out of the blue.

Re: Michelle Obama: Yay or nay? Maybe if they announced it beforehand, that would be better than the awkward surprise we got.

Re: Michelle Obama: Yay or nay? Magnus wrote: I say a big fat NAY.
I think mixing the Presidency with an event like this is just wrong. Showing up at stuff like Sesame Street or even Dr. Oz is fine cause those are at their intent trying to be informational shows. The Oscars are just a self-attention jizz fest.
I know it's just the First Lady but she still represents the Presidency and stuff like this to me just sets bad precedence. Are future first ladies, Democrat or Republican, now all going to be invited to present at the Oscars? Will the President do it in the future? It just doesn't feel right.
Those right-wingers who feel as if Obama is trying to be more controlling and monarch-like get more fuel with shit like this. Granted, they overblow it far more than what it is but the Presidency shouldn't help fuel it. There's no need for something like this except for your own self-attention. Which is kinda strange to have considering you're the First Lady so why the hell are you even seeking to have a bigger audience.
I blame this more on the First Lady too cause she should be smart enough to decline the offer from the Academy. The Academy is just a ratings attention-seeking whore. The First Lady should have seen through that and not taken apart of the ceremony. Is it any different than Presidents throwing the first pitch in baseball games?

Re: Michelle Obama: Yay or nay? How about appearing on late-night entertainment shows and guest starring on sitcoms and "reality" shows?

Re: Michelle Obama: Yay or nay? If every First Lady had been like Jackie Kennedy or Michelle Obama, we wouldn't be debating this right now. Simply put: the First Ladies in between have been too politically-charged, too old, or too dull to make good presenters.
