It was the average too-long, unfunny, over-produced Academy Awards TV show and then, after suffering through the 10-hour (well, it seemed like it) show, there was the first lady. In a ball gown. With military service personnel in dress uniform behind her.

She had a global audience of how many people?

Three viewers? I haven't watch any of the countless awards shows in decades.

I don’t know, I was watching Duck Dynasty reruns, reloading some 40cal.

Michelle Malkin: “Forget separation of church and state - we need a separation of Hollywood and state”

Malkin nails it again...

They have done a marvelous job of segementing the low informed voters by pandering as “cool” and “hip” (e.g. Clinton on the Arsinio show). To Hell with what their ideas are or capability to lead. It’s how they look.

Was Star Wars getting an award?

I heard some one say last night, "I didn't know Evita was up for an Oscar this year!"

Because they’re still in campaign mode...

I'm afraid it's far more serious than that. It's the "Cult of Personality" mode. This is the "Juan and Eva Peron" style of governing, typical of totalitarian governments. The ruler(s) "become" the State. The media are 100% complicit in the propaganda.

Yeah, as my late father used to say: "They always want to be the bride at the wedding and the corpse at every funeral."

I only tuned into the Awards to see who would win Best Picture(Figured Zero Dark Thirty would get snubbed which it did) and BAM, I see a giant hippo on my TV screen and I said “OH HELL NO” and left the room..too bad she didnt go on her little rant about how those evil rich need to pay their fare share you think those celebs would have grabbed onto their wallets extra tight(Oh yeah, almost forgot, they are Dems, and therefore they don’t have to pay a dime..Rich Dems are not considered rich by the left)

Nancy Reagan is probably a Life Member in the Screen Actors Guild and would have every right to be at the Oscars. Moochelle is a SCAB.

I would have to have watched that worthless waste of time to know that the worthless waste of skin appeared.

Who cares? The Oscars are staged, bought and nothing more than a combination of self-aggrandizement and public self-abuse on the part of Hollywood.

I think she was there cause someone told her
she was nominated for best supporting FLOTUS.

Haha, she wasn’t even named.

She did pick up an award for best supporting actress
playing the part of a wife of a gay man though.

Yet another waste of taxpayer's $$$.

And how much did it cost the taxpayer to fly her fat ass from DC to LA?

I done nothing to support Hollywood in years, including watching those fools give awards to each other.

Turn them off.

Because they thought Django was going to win best picture and she would get to present the award.

I can't tell if you're actually serious (I have trouble with that lately).

I'm almost positive that they knew in advance that that wouldn't happen.

That could be what we should be talking about.

The White House had to know in advance what film would win, so as to avoid embarrassment.

So much for all the supposed secrecy about the results.

Interesting, because I named her “Wookievita” this morning on a post.

I am convinced that she will be making her own inauguration speech in 2017. She has been taking some walking tutoring, and she has gotten a makeover. Why now? Got to be a 2016 pseudo run for the WH, which will just be a sham so that Soros can pretend we actually had an election.
