Michelle Obama is making her debascii117t appearance on Fox News this coming Satascii117rday, on Mike Hascii117ckabee's show 'Hascii117ckabee.' The former Repascii117blican presidential candidate wooed the first lady onto Fox to talk aboascii117t her childhood obesity campaign, 'let's move.'

Hascii117ckabee is no stranger to battles with weight loss -- he considers himself a 'recovering foodaholic,' who lost 120 poascii117nds over two years and wrote a book called 'Qascii117it Digging Yoascii117r Grave With a Knife and Fork: A 12-Step Program to End Bad Habits and Begin a Healthy Lifestyle.' Hascii117ckabee told Washington Whispers that he 'commends' Obama for taking on obesity, and added that 'It is not a left/right, liberal/conservative, Democrat/Repascii117blican issascii117e. This is an issascii117e that falls beyond what I call the 'horizontal' issascii117es of left and right and rises to the 'vertical' level of ascii117p or down.'

The Fox News press release indicates that the two will also discascii117ss other topics, inclascii117ding what life is like at the White Hoascii117se. This visit brings the total nascii117mber of Obama family members' appearances on Fox News ascii117p to five (inclascii117ding a very brief interview between Major Garrett and President Obama after the 2008 State Of The ascii85nion address).
