genuinely happy. Great marriage between two loving partners. Well adjusted offspring. After everything the gop put this family through, they all deserve a lifetime of happiness. Will we EVER get adults into the WH again? Michelle just glows.

She is a former First Lady. Ex- is when you quit, like ex-governor Palin or ex-President Nixon. (Grammar and word nerd here.)

And, the picture is flat out gorgeous.

She's a former first lady (not ex) and she looks awesome on that magazine cover. Wow!
Congratulations Michelle! Here's hoping for success with the new book. I plan to read it soon.

I doubt if we’re going to see any faux outrage from the right over Michelle O. baring a shoulder. But I wouldn’t put it past them; their hypocrisy knows no bounds.

The right is going to be shitting bricks over Michelle Obama's bare-shoulder look.

It's okay with the hard right if a google search for "nude photos of Melania Trump" returns a lot of them.

those naked photos of Mrs. tRump. Bag of bones, no shape at all. Before tRump bought her new boobs, she was flat as a board. Beanpole, scowling in every photo. She always looks as though she is mad about something. If she is staying around for the $$$, I hope the tRumps all lose their ill gotten gains and end up broke. Hey, Maleria "Be Best" learn to speak ENGLISH.

Right above Princess Di ( for her physical touch to Aids and land mine victims). Then Stevie Nicks. But Michelle is above. No scandals, no salacious headlines. Just a beautiful woman with a beautiful family. Even the dogs are beautiful.

Stephen Colbert (I think it was him) was interviewing President Obama shortly before the 2016 election. He said, "But we get to keep Michelle, right?" Kind of how I felt. Nothing in that pesky Constitution about how many terms the First Lady can serve.

She always gets it right, whether she's in jeans exercising with kids or glammed up for a state dinner, meeting the troops and their families or giving inspiring speeches. Always made me so proud that she was our First Lady.
