Celebuzz Michelle Obama's Democratic National Convention Speech Earns Hollywood's Praise http://www.celebuzz.com/2012-09-05/michelle-obamas-democratic-national-convention-speech-earns-hollywoods-praise/ Sep 5th 2012, 21:03 Celebrities often reduce their fans to gushing and babbling fountains of praise, but who makes the celebrities gush and babble? Apparently, it's First Lady Michelle Obama, whose emotional speech at the Democratic National Convention on Tuesday prompted an outpouring of florid, flattering tweets from people usually on the receiving end of such mushy missives. Even the political pundits, who've seen it all and are frequently bored by such speeches, seemed bowled over. According to the Huffington Post, the First Lady's speech drew praise from MSNBC and Fox News alike, though the Fox News pundits liked only the personal parts of the speech, not the political points. Former Bush press secretary Ari Fleischer was the only one who didn't seem impressed, saying, "Some speeches are much more effective in a hall of zealots." Here's a sampling of what the stars had to say about Mrs. Obama's speech. Such a beautiful and powerful speech!!! Real! Honest! Emotional! Passionate!
