Oh Gak

Forbes Magazine: Michelle Obama is

Most Powerful Woman In The World





Keyboard Kunnilingus at its finest!


When it comes to power, cultural impact means as much as money and political influence.

Forbes’ power lists are synonymous with moguls and movie stars, heads of state and captains of business. One look at the 2010 World’s 100 Most Powerful Women list and it is clear that we’ve come up with a new ranking of the female power elite that reflects the New Order of now.

When we set out to identify this year’s list, we decided it was time to look up and out into the broader culture. Our assessment is based less on traditional titles and roles and more on creative influence and entrepreneurship. These power women have built distinctive companies and brands and championed weighty causes, sometimes through unconventional means; in other cases they have broken through gender barriers.

“weighty causes” hur hur hur. Forbes tips their hand a few paragraphs early by making an oblique Let’s Move reference.

We divided our power women candidates into four groups: politics, business, media and lifestyle (that is, entertainment, sports and fashion). We ranked the women in each group, and then group against group. Not easy, but that’s today’s reality: an unpredictable, diverse mash-up of hard power (currencies and constitutions) and dynamic power (audience and audacity).

At the top of our list, First Lady Michelle Obama is a true change-maker since taking lodge in the White House in 2008. The first African-American in the post, she’s changed the face of the office (literally), and with consistently high approval ratings, she’s given a new generation of girls and women around the world a role model. A former private attorney and public servant in Chicago, her interest in working with young people and advocating for healthy eating, among other issues, is evidenced by her Let’s Move! campaign, which aims to solve the epidemic of childhood obesity within a generation.


Credibility gap much? They came right out and said it, veiled reference to the regime included: they turned themselves inside out, changed all their values, and reworked their entire system so that FLOTUS, the head wookie, would be the winner. Where is this magazine published anyway, Chicago? Good grief, look at their reasoning: in an age wherein women can do anything, where no glass ceilings exist anymore, where women head nations and zillion dollar corporations, M.O.’s first stated “power attribute” is that she “literally” changed the face of the oval office. Yeah, by redecorating. Ladies, that’s how real power is expressed in these non-traditional role days, thank you so much.

Forbes full list is available in picture gallery form right here. On the heels of Michelle Antoinette are Irene Rosenfeld, CEO of Kraft Foods, Oprah, Angela Merkel Chancellor of Germany, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Pepsico CEO Indra Nooyi, and Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga?? How about that, a sideshow freak entertainer is only slightly less potent than the world’s most powerful diplomat and the leader of a corporation that out-earns Big Oil. ... oh the times, they are a changin’.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
  1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
  2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
  3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
  4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
