Jason Collins knew that coming out as an active gay member of the NBA would be a huge deal. We're just not so sure he was expecting a phone call from the President himself!
It's true!
Not only did Jason get a tweet from the First Lady, but he also got a phone call from President Obama! The Prez said he was 'impressed by his courage' and offered him his support in his big decision to go public! Now if only Obama would do something about the whole gay marriage thing…
Anyway, here's what Michelle said:

Ha! Ooooh-bama!
In response to Mitt Romney's "solution" to the national debt (his proposed funding-cuts of PBS) President Obama told Elmo and Big Bird they better watch out!
Needless to say, the prez made everyone laugh at the outdoor rally held at Cleveland State University on Friday!!
Ch-ch-check it ouutt (above)!!

And as usual, President Obama keeps it classy!!
Following the viral exposure of Mitt Romney's degrading remarks about 47% of Americans, Obama appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman.
And he responded like a true leader, saying:

President Obama & Michelle Obama have got a lot on their minds, especially in the next few months.
Now, on top of all that, they have to worry if their daughters' super expensive, super elite private school is providing a safe environment for their little girls!

President Obama just legalized horse slaughter for human consumption.
Yup.
That means the president says we can now kill and eat horses.
Gross.
The bill was signed into law right before thanksgiving.
So Obama will pardon two turkeys but only after sentencing 120,000 to 200,000 horses to death.
The slaughtering of horses was originally illegal only because there weren't any finances to support the inspection of horses in transit and the slaughter houses.
But now there apparently are enough finances.
So even though 70% of Americans are against horse slaughter, and Obama made a campaign promise to permanently ban horse slaughter, he still signed the bill.
Seems dishonest to us.

Just like every year, President Obama has pardoned two turkeys this year before Thanksgiving.
We're sure the turkeys, Peace and Liberty, were relieved to have received a stay of execution so close to Thanksgiving.
The whole Obama family was present as the Prez gave his speech.
Check it out in the above video.
