Michelle Obama to Jason Collins: "We've got your back!"

First lady Michelle Obama took to Twitter Monday to offer her support for NBA player Jason Collins, the first openly gay major league professional athlete.

"So proud of you, Jason Collins! This is a huge step forward for our country. We've got your back!" she tweeted, signing it "-mo," which indicates she - not an aide - sent the message.
