First of all..Congratulations on your Wedding!!!
I loved your show today and I'm happy the New Season is here!! I am also glad to see Tony back!!!!.

Ellen, You are a fantastic, caring, giving, person inside and out!

So, are you as sick as I am of all the political crap? Who you can or cannot have on the show? What you can or cannot say? The last time I checked, I was living in America where everyone is entitled to their opinion and their right to voice it.
Who you vote for, in that little booth, is a private choice no matter who you have on your show or what you talk about.

Where is the intelligence and maturity in this Country????
I Love You and Your Show and I'll Keep Watching!!!

Good Day Ellen,

I was unable to watch your show today but I have read the comments that has been posted to your blog...I would like to say to all of the bloggers who said that you did not invite Mrs. McCain or Mrs. Sarah Palin you do not know if she has invited the ladies to her show just because she does not have them in the line up for this week does not mean she does not have them line up for later on in the season...If you do not like the way she is handling her show you could always read a book during that time....

Hi Ellen,

First of all, congratulations to both you and Portia on your marriage - my husband and I couldn't be happier for you both!!

Next, I absolutely love your show. I watch every morning before going to work and it is a great way to start my day. My husband watches what he can of it before he goes to work and enjoys it - it's so nice to see him leave with a smile.

Congrats on your first show of the season!! I think you couldn't have had better guests. I bet you can't wait to look back after the election and feel great about having the new First Lady on your show.

All the best to you and Portia and I look forward to watching your new season.

You're the BEST!! Take care of yourself and each other.

Ellen,

I enjoyed your show today with Michelle Obama. I think she has charisma in charactor, but I think she should bring her hem line down (just a tad) while representing public service of such great extent. Too much skin may create:
(1) Temptation from the devil (outside interests)
(2) Accusation from the Whitehouse (the spouse)
(3) speculations from the public (media)
(4) Devastation in leadership (thus we all suffer)

Luckily we see you on ABC. . .yea - no tennis today! How wonderful the new season has begun. It's like our favorite relative coming back from vacation. We've missed new shows! Great start - Michelle Obama, our next First Lady.
Congratulations to You and Portia!!! Couldn't be happier for you both. Have you started sounding alike on the phone yet? That's what our friends tell us after 14 yrs.
Thank you for YOU. . .keep dancing, keeping laughing!
We Love You!!!

To the person who is boycotting Oprah for not having Sarah Palin on - check your facts. While she is campaigning for Obama she will not have him or any candidate on her show before the election. She has stated that her show will not be a political platform. Stop listening to all the pundits on both sides and check your facts.

Tried to watch your show a couple times...because I admire the fact that you still exhibit a sweetness and humanity that is extremely admirable, in light of what you've been through. But your show is just too womanish for me. Anyway, keep up the good work. Michelle and you and your audience have a lot in common. That's the big difference that America needs to get.

I missed todays show because of tennis playing here in Atlanta :O( Hopefully that business won't continue all week!

Caught your show today with Michelle Obama and I thought it was terrific. Sorry to see that some of your viewers got so political with their comments below. She certainly is a lovely "lady".

The only way I would watch Sarah Palin on your show is if you wore mukluks and showed us how you caught the bear that you would have to drape over the back of your couch!

Thanks for a great show and good luck with your new digs!

As a gay woman I used to look up to you, I thought you were a fair mined individual. You should have kept your mouth shut about Palin's kids. Ellen that was really crapy of you; for a woman who respects the rights of animals and not to kill them or harm them, it doesn't look like you have a problem killing the unborn. YOU are a hypocrite! You just lost a fan.

We all have to look at more then our own intrests in this election year. I am I do not believe that Obama is the best candidate for the job.
