First lady Michelle Obama is expected to be in Fayetteville on Thursday to be part of the "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" episode.
The ABC reality series has been in Fayetteville since last week filming the construction of a home for Barbara Marshall, a 15-year Navy veteran who is working to end homelessness among female veterans. Marshall created The Steps-N-Stages Jubilee House which provides homeless female veterans with housing and support services.

Really? Great! She could use an extreme makeover!
Think she’ll break a sweat?
That title is sooooo full of amunition I just can’t bring mysel to take a shot - too easy;)
Makeover? or cash for clunkers?
I do not watch that show. Now I know I never will!
If you really want to do a lot of good, build reasonable (small) houses for more people.
This show is feel-good glitter and it's not really about making a difference.
In other words: a perfect venue for Michelle!
I think she should get the MOST Extremely, Extreme, Ultra-Extreme Makeover.
Private enterprise gives the capital, volunteers give the labor, Michelle takes a campaign photo opportunity.
Oh, I thought they were doing “Extreme Makeover” ON Mooch-elle . . . that would take a lot of spackle and putty . . . and liposuction!
I use to watch the show, but then it just got too sob story or just too goofy, and the houses are just too out-there, and after seeing how things are really done and now segments are shot, etc., you see past the illusion, it’s really quite silly; and then all of the construction problems that follow, too. It doesn’t thrill anymore.
And I'm just stunned that Marshall is BLACK.
“I do not watch that show. Now I know I never will!”
Ditto.
After it was getting out that several recipients starting having problems keeping the houses (property taxes, utilities, I think one took out a mortgage to start a failed business & went into foreclosure), they began building more reasonable houses.
The national debt had a serious problem before......there’s no way the USA has a good enough credit rating to fix this particular problem.
Lipstick on a pig.
We generally watch this show. I really enjoyed last night’s episode - but I know we will be avoiding this upcoming one. I think I might have to clip my toenails that evening.
First Lady Michelle Obama will break:
a. Wind
b. A sweat
c. All of the rattan furniture.
d. Nathan’s Hot Dog Contest at Coney Island
e. All of the above.
They use her ass as a shed!
