Michelle Obama on 'World's Most Powerful Women' List. Why?
Because she'll threaten to give you THAT LOOK.

Forbes has published its world's most powerful women list and on that list, in the top slot no less, is Michelle Obama, the wife of the President of the United States of America. Along with Obama a few singers and entertainers made the list. It all goes to prove that apparently no one knows what "powerful" means anymore.
On the most powerful list – after Obama at number one -- Lady Gaga comes in at seventh place, in ninth singer Beyonce Knowles appears, and bringing up the rear is entertainer Ellen DeGeneres. Oprah Winfrey makes it in as number three.
There is no reason that any of these women (well, I'll give you Oprah) belong on a "most powerful women" list -- or a most powerful anybody list, for that matter.
Michelle Obama has no power at all. She was not elected by the people to anything, she holds no office, and has no real responsibilities past tradition. She is but the wife of an elected official. Sure she has the power, such as it is, to waste millions of the taxpayer's money on new decorations and lavish trips abroad, but that is not much to qualify for a "powerful" woman. She controls no corporation, guides no country, and has contributed nothing of great worth to mankind....

She is on the list because her usurping husband is President and she holds his micro-nuticals in her hands.
They list Oprah as well. They confuse money and celebrity with power.
FUBO
8^D
That's why Palin isn't on the list; she has good hygiene.
When asked about it she replied, “It’s hell.”
Powerful smelling...
“While Michelle 0bama is very powerful, like her husband she has few accomplishments. “
But what”power” does she have? I can’t think of anything.
God those women were so wrongly dressed for the occasion. All the rest in sleek suits and these idiots are dressed for a Hollywood premiere.
She spends too much time near BO!!
Another affirmative action accomplishment - she should be so proud.
As far as power, it seems to me like Hillary, Oprah, Nasty Pegrossi, and the 3 (supposedly female) SCOTUS judges should be topping the list ahead of Moosechelle.
to quote stalin “how many divisions does she have?”
The kind of power I’d have if I sat down next to a concert pianist. THAT would make me a concert pianist too... see?
She’s married to this guy who stumbled into the oval office so she is powerful too!! Get it?
Response:What a joke.
Comment: The left simply asserts a position, the position is repeated by the media, and voila' a fact has been created. NONSENSE!
So declared by Rep. Rostenkowski (D. felon, Ill.).
Hey she is going keep children from drinking soda! Powerful stuff.
Hey she is going keep children from drinking soda! Powerful stuff. MAybe she straps one on for Bo.
Further confirmation that cancelling my 30+-year subscription to Forbes was the right move.
That idiot (not Obama) does NOT know how to dress for the occasion.
