Michelle Obama answers NORAD's Santa hotline
(CNN) – First lady Michelle Obama took 30 minutes out of her Christmas Eve Tuesday for her annual tradition of answering calls to NORAD's program to track Father Christmas.
According to a White House spokesman, Obama answered children's calls to the Santa Claus tracker hotline from the first family's vacation spot in Honolulu, Hawaii, starting at around 11:00 a.m. local time.
This marks the first lady's fourth year participating in the U.S. Air Force tradition of tracking Santa. NORAD has tracked the overladen sled's annual faster-than-light journeys since 1958.

Beautiful woman!
Well, well, well, hay media folks what is that I see, the First Lady is smiling. I wonder what does that mean.
Merry Christmas to the President, First Lady and their family.
I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas!!! Enjoy the season and God bless-
"Mrs. President. We have the boogie closing into American airspace from the North Pole. Confirmed it is a sleigh with reindeer."
"Can you see if there is anything that says "Merry Christmas", "God Bless", or any Bible passages?"
"Yes, we can confirm multiple instances of Mike-Echo-Romeo-Romeo-Yankee Charlie-Helo-Romeo-Iceland-Sierra-Tango-Mike-Alpha-Sierra."
"According to the Veterans Health Administration handbook, these are illegal.. Shoot the boogie down."
"Madame President?"
"Shoot it down, now!"
who cares . this is just media hype . and who believes obama will use his newly acquired bronze level insurance plan . how naive are americans?
She is shooting the bird. How disrespectful that she always ads her little two cents thinking no one is noticing. That is the only reason she is smiling. She told you off and you smile and think she has done good.
PEACE !
Christ, you right-wingers are tiresome.
Hello marry christmas
