Michelle Obama helps Jimmy Fallon demonstrate the Evolution of the Mom Dance.

Is there anybody who does not like Michelle Obama?

I think she is certainly setting the bar a whole lot higher for the next batch of First Ladies, that much is for sure.

    I'll bet the racist bigots all across the countries heads just exploded, especially Sarah Palin's. White girl politicking must be seething with jealousy at how Michelle rock's the Dougie.

    Scroll down past Bristol's money-maker shimmy to see Sarah in all her glory.

    OMG, as much as I'm loving it, I'm imagining all the heads exploding over such a 'non first lady-like' appearance. And you know what? Makes me love it even more!

      I heard that at a rehearsal this morning from a 75 year old pianist. She thought it 'wasn't dignified.' So what? Where in the FLOTUS rule book does it say she can't dance and act normal? I bet if they were Republicans, the GOP would be beside themselves with glee that they had a gorgeous, intelligent First Lady who supported healthy children and adults. Oops, never gonna happen. A GOP First Lady must be prim and proper and walk 4 steps behind her idiot husband.

    Red State gay rights win. In the land of Joe Miller and Westboro Baptist.

    "The Kansas Supreme Court ruled Friday that the non-biological mother of children in a same-sex relationship can have the same parental rights as the biological mother.

    “This is significant both in Kansas and nationally,” said Catherine Sakimura of the National Center for Lesbian Rights. “It recognizes the rights of those who hold themselves out as parents regardless of biology or gender."

    Heard on some TeeVee review that Jimmy looked just like Tina Fey!

      Like Tina Fey? Naah.

      Fallon looked more like Todd Palin when Toddie puts on one of the RNC dresses that Sarah stole, along with Sarah's wig and high-ho-heel shoes so he can cover for one of his female prostitutes that he's overbooked. Except that Todd is about 8 inches shorter than Jimmy, even in Sarah's heels. LOL

      And Michelle is incredible!

    I stayed up to watch it just to see her, and it was not disappointing!!! She and Jimmy talked as if they were old friends in a very charming, delightful, and funny interview. The 'Mom' dancing was just a riot; she's definitely a very good dancer! What a joy and a treasure she is.

    Unfortunately Gryphen, there are many millions of people who hate Michelle Obama.

    They hate her politics and because she's married to a Kenyan commie Muslim black liberation theologist who thinks he is President, and wants to force abortions on everyone, make gay rights a mandatory course in middle school, and take all them guns away from Rill Mericans.

    And them Obamas don't rilly go to church, and if they do it's all just for show, and they don't believe in the Rill Merican God, like what $arah Paylin and Ricky Santorum do, dontcha know

    What a pair of snobs

      8:03 has written a brilliant piece of satire, pretending to sound like a red neck, red state Palin fan. The point of the satire was to show how stupid bots sound. Brilliant!

      It's damn difficult to do parody about the stupid Palin panty-sniffers because they themselves are so absurd, making them almost impossible to satirize.

      For instance, at winger nut sites like DC, Breitfart, or Blaze, when I mock them and try to exaggerate their idiocy (for effect), instead of them getting pissed off, I get "Amen, brothuh" or "Hell yeah, and Obumbo sux and his old lady looks like a Go Rilla."

      Nuance doesn't do the job because I've heard them say and do stupid things that their only excuse is, "Well, we got us a Kenyan in the White House who hates this country and all of them good Mericun patriots like me."

    Love, love, love Michelle, because she is real...a real mom to her kids, a real wife to her husband, and a real intelligent, accomplished, but down to earth and empathetic woman, who is a real role model. She knows the right wing nut jobs hate her, but she carries herself with grace and dignity.

    Love the mom dancing...I have been accused of that myself.

      They released this clip before it aired to promote the show, and after a couple of drinks following a long day at work, I watched it on myiPhone. I didn't even notice that the other "mom" was Fallon. I just thought, "Damn, that lady dancing with Michelle is tall." Now, watching it again, the first thing I noticed was the size of that "Mom's" hands. lol. Next time I'm going to read closer before I watch the vid. Fallon did well. He's so funny. But Michelle stole it with her dougie. She always does something to make me smile.

      Jimmy looks less tranny than Sarah Palin does on a normal day, and his hands, albeit larger, look a hell of a lot better than Palin's wretched, wrinkly claw-hooves straight from Tales of the Crypt.

      And to be the same age as Sarah, Michelle looks so much healthier and happier. Michelle must live more (ahem) vibrantly than the Queen Quitter.

      Since Rafalca's the fancy dancer in the family, he would have been the one to try those steps...major fail, however.

    I think that the Obamas are dignified representatives yet are not stuck up on themselves unable to participate in comedy in the spirit of these shows.
    I feel proud as the first family they are dressed appropriately and in good taste for events and conduct themselves with manners and ettiquette with respect of other cultures.

    She makes it look so easy! I can't recall a first lady who was more easy to relate with. And Jimmy did a great job in drag! That takes a lot of practice, but he chickened out with the "Sensible shoes". The out of synch electric slide is much funnier in stilleto heels!

    As a vice presidential candidate seeking to impress a national audience, Palin arguably tumbled into the pit of hypocrisy more than once. But, as Zencey stresses, his book is not about the vice presidency. It is about governing Alaska. During her term, Palin did not become a hypocrite so much as an occasional liar of convenience. There is a difference.
