    The poll needs a 3rd option “Who cares?”.

  2. Bubba says:

    Ya can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear

    She is a very unattractive woman and the fact that she is a racist (as displayed in her Princeton thesis) makes her EVEN more unatractive

    OINK OINK

    • Jeb says:

      It sounds like ENVY and JEALOUSY!; I am sure Cousin Bubba’s Bride is oh so lovely-not! More like a mirrored image of him-Bubbette. No class, culture, background, or breeding and no LOOKS!

  3. Susan says:

    ugly is as ugly does. Why is this news?

  4. KP says:

    I think she is great and so is her do…

  5. Simply beautiful…The funny part of the earlier comments..She is STILL your first lady..

  6. MimGeorge says:

    It is very sophisticated. Very trendy. She is so elegant.

  7. tashata says:

    she looks wonderful, she such a great rolemodel ! fab fab fab

  8. ohyeah says:

    Looks like Big Foot with a new hair cut. Should have let her hair grow and cut her face instead. They both need to go away.

  9. Sherrie says:

    She is a beautiful lady with a whole lot of style.

  10. Darrell says:

    Don’t like the do and don’t like her. Lost respect for her when she hugged the Queen of England and embarrassed the entire country. No one could be that ignorant, or was it just plan old pride

    • Nikki says:

      OMG she hugged the queen on England. Hello this is America thats how we greet people. We shake hands and hug. You must not be from America.

  11. regerob says:

    I think it is very sassy. To all the other nasty comments, they were not necessary. They only want your opinion on the hair cut!!!!!!!!

  12. bobbie says:

    I think that the previous unkind comments are unnecessary and show no class. I prefer her hair longer. I think that it was more flattering to her facial structure. That is my answer to the question (with no inappropriate, unsolicited, hateful comments).

  13. Jeb says:

    She is the epitome of style and sophistication-she can work any style. We did ourselves very proud this time around with such an dynamic pair!!!!!!

  14. Ms D says:

    All the negative comments for what? My goodness we still have haters in the world. The haircut is Ok, but I like her with longer hair. However she’s still a classy lady in my opinion.

  15. susan says:

    She needs something to help her looks, braces might help…

  16. susan says:

    Go figure the dems that have been putting the last administration for 8 years, don’t like it when it comes back…..

  17. MISS JAE says:

    I THINK IT LOOK BEAUTIFUL,SO THE REST OF YOU IGNORANT NEED TO STOP BEING DISRESPECTFUL BECAUSE SHE’S STILL THE FIRST LADY AND OBAMA STILL THE FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT. SO, JUST GET OVER IT YOU IDIOTS.

  18. MISS JAE says:

    I THINK IT LOOK BEAUTIFUL, SO THE REST OF YOU IGNORANT PEOPLE NEED TO STOP BEING DISRESPECTFUL. BECAUSE AT THE END OF EVERYDAY SHE’S STILL THE FIRST LADY AND OBAMA STILL THE PRESIDENT. SO, JUST GET OVER IT YOU IDIOTS.

  19. e.c. says:

    Apparently every “First Lady” that goes to the Whitehouse has to look like an old HAG, thus everyone of them has to get a “Short” haircut, afterall that is the “Old Lady” style. God forbid that anyone of them look cute or pretty or “YOUNG”. I think she should have kept her hair & when she needs it short, updo it, thus MORE versatility.
    I did not think Mrs. O could be that easily persuaded———or maybe she isn’t, maybe it’s a WIG.

  20. Lynn says:

    We really don’t give a dam about her hair. Do something that works for this Country.

  21. We Love You Michelle Obama says:

    HATERS,HATERS,HATERS Bubba ur the one who is racist and this is about her new hair do which i think is very beautiful, don’t like what you see go kill yourselves.

  22. steve says:

    Excellent! To those of you who posted derogatory comments about her, you don’t like her anyway so it was doomed from the “get go” in your book. The question was about her new hair style, not your personal opinions of her. She is an excellent role model for all of todays young women. The new hair style is excellent.

  23. T. Lynn says:

    I love the new cut! Thanks Mrs. Obama for being such a role model and an inspiration to us all.

  24. Staci says:

    She’s the first lady, she rocks regardless of the length of her hair. The rest of you just can’t believe we have a black president and first lady, get over it, give them a chance.

  25. "GO OBAMA" says:

    GO MICHELLE! SHE LOOKS GREAT!!! LISTEN TO ALL THE RACIST COMMENTS. HER HUSBAND IS THE PRESIDENT AND SHE IS THE 1ST LADY IF YOU ARE UPSET MIGHT AS WELL GET USE TO IT LOL AT ALL THE DUMB PEOPLE… YOU WASTE YOUR TIME POSTING COMMENTS BUT YOU DON’T LOOK AT THE FACTS NOTHING YOU SAY MATTERS IT’S THE FACTS THAT COUNTS…

  26. GIN says:

    THIS WAS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE. TO ASK FOR ANY COMMENTS WHEN YOU HAVE HATERS AND RACIST PEOLPE IN THE WORLD AS LONG AS HER MAN LIKES
    IT THATS ALLLLLL FOLKS.

  27. amy says:

    THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO USE THE WORD DISRESPECTFUL ARE BLACKS. SO U CAN TELL WHO WROTE THE ARTICLE.

    • Pat says:

      I am not black. I think you people take every opportunity you can to say nasty things, and why not, no one can see you or identify you. I think our First Lady should wear her hair as she so chooses just as the rest of the ladies in the world do. I was not a George Bush fan, but I never said ugly things about him on blogs, and I most definitely would not have made comments against Mrs. Bush. If you have children, I hope you are not teaching them to behave in this manner.

  28. Bubba says:

    And her being a racist just allows me to be one too… 2 wrongs feels just right to me…

    First Lady???? Po-leeze She should thank affirmative action

  29. c says:

    Love you 1st lady but….I personally like it longer. Maybe she should loose at little volume and go with the Bob style wrap.

  30. KP says:

    Some of u are idiots… Reading some of these comments make me sad to be an american.. Where people still are ignorant enough to make these comments…

  31. lavern says:

    very attractive, She is just a classy lady. The good part is she does whatever makes her feel comfortable. She is on in a million.

  32. pierre says:

    not sure what all the fuss is about, her hair was always short, it was the wig that was long!!!!

  33. Bubba says:

    Well if it is a wig, she should let her husband borrow it because it will cover those great big ears – LOL! Seriously, who give’s a crap abour her hair?! She’s a racist, he’s a muslim and I get a sick feeling in my stomach everytime I see them in the news.

    • Pat says:

      Did you vote in the presidential election? So many folks who make these statements didn’t even vote. If you did, that’s great.

  34. Joanie says:

    SOME OF THESE PEOPLE DIDN’T PAY ANY ATTENTION TO THE REASON FOR THESE COMMENTS. IT IS ABOUT MICHELLE’S HAIR, NOT WHO OR WHAT SHE AND OUR PRESIDENT ARE. SO GET A LIFE. HER HAIR LOOKS GREAT AND I THINK SHE IS A LOVELY LADY.
