I'm no fashion king. Ask my wife. She critiques what I wear all the time and I can't tell you how many times she's stopped me with these words: "Ain't no way in heck that you're wearing that".
Methinks someone ought to have stopped the First Lady. But again, I might not be the best judge.
You?

Me, me, me look at me, I'm the First Lady, look...screw the veterans, look at ME!
Class has left the building.
She aught to be holding the umbrella for him.

Maybe the belt holds the alien in.

is it me, or does she look like she has a faint smile on her face?????

You know, it really is a pretty photo of her. She CAN look lovely. But what is with the crazy belts????
I just don't get it. Her fashion sense is bi-polar. Sometimes, she looks fantastic but more often than not, she just chooses clothes that are not flattering to her.
Why doesn't she work with what she's been given? She doesn't have to look ridiculous.

She looks pregnant to me... which of course would work for the Obama's politically...

OK, maybe I missed the point here, this was taken yesterday, Veterans Day, and the inappropriateness of the dress/coat…that’s just me???
Posted by: tim aka The Godless Heathen | Thursday, November 12, 2009 at 11:42 AM
Of COURSE it's inappropriate. But I think I'm so used to both of them being inappropriate that it just doesn't register anymore.
Black, navy blue, gray - any of those colors would have been appropriate. But noooo, we have to go with brights and an alien-restraining belt.

Turquoise with black jack boots and her bondage belt? On Veterans Day at Arlington? That's the same belt she wore a few weeks ago that looked stupid with the other outfit she wore it with. Nothing has changed, she and the belt still look stupid. The woman has absolutely no fashion sense and less character IMO.

SHE'S SMILING.
WHAT AN ANTI-AEMRICAN PIECE OF UGLY TASTLESS CRAP.

Seems to me I remember way back to my humble warrior days that the rule was any member of the military, in uniform, was forbidden to hold/use an umbrella.

I think he's holding it over Ms. Obama and that other one. I don't think it's for his personal protection, Toejam.

Please refrain from criticizing M'echele's traditional Klingon mating costume! I have it on good authority (from my source in the check-out line at Publix AND Mrs. Shifty's infallible "gaydar") that Barry-o is NOT prime hetero mating material. His Klingon bride is simply "in season" and doing her level best, in accordance with her culture's code of conduct, to procreate!

The problem is my taxes are paying that man to hold that d*** umbrella, unless he is vital security hold your own umbrella.

Maybe it's a bright turquoise Dick-Cheney-Don't-Shoot-Me hunting vest. Quail, human... they look so much alike. Come on that was funny.
Personally, politics aside, she is the hottest first lady we have ever had. Remember when old Barbara Bush would waddle her turkey neck out into public, goodness put it away Barb.
