Thanks to this link, that a clever and competent reader sent us, I caught sight of this positively GHASTLY outfit worn by our First Lady to a Veterans’ Day Memorial Service.
I think we can all agree that Michelle Obama’s stylist obviously HATES HER GUTS. Who dresses in freaking turquoise for an occasion which demands total solemnity?
It’s horrific, and she looks more pregnant than Daisy in this picture, and it’s just utterly inappropriate. The kind of inappropriate that her husband displays on a regular basis, when he keeps freaking BOWING TO OTHER WORLD LEADERS.
GAWD.
One…the outfit yes…total mess! But if I am not mistaken…and I am not. Every President has bowed to Asian leaders as a sign of respect towards them. It is Asian Culture to do that…Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, they all have done it…esp to Asian leaders. Anyone one else who posts to this can tear me a new ass if you want to, but the reality is every President has done it. Lets all attack his idiotic policies that are taking our Country into a free fall. I am a proud Republican who has and never will vote Democrat…
American Power tracked back with (the best video evah!), ‘Bowing Before Monarchs and Tyrants: Obama ‘Restores’ America’s World Standing With His Head Down – UPDATE: REAGAN DIDN’T BOW!!’.
Mark, please click the link in the comment above – Reagan’ll prove you wrong.
Okay. Everyone but Reagan, then, knew how to act in order to demonstrate respect for another person’s culture. Not exactly a feather in his cap.
Actually, I consider it a pretty big feather, and the picture is awesome.
Dick Cheney doesn’t mess with that bowing nonsense either: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2009/11/obama-emperor-akihito-japan.html
And bowing in deference to everyone notwithstanding, Michelle’s outfit is still completely inappropriate.
What is up with her and her adoration for the bondage belts? Honestly. They have stylists in Washington. And if she has one (which I assume she does), I hope he/she is fired immediately.
No, no… by all means, let them keep dressing her. We need something to entertain us for the next several years, while trying to distract ourselves from The Road To Socialism.
And the bowing… yes, it’s appropriate to make a SLIGHT bow (which is what the Japanese head of state is doing). But to bend all the way over like that is just awkward and inappropriate. (or so say my friends who lived in Japan)
Methinks her stylist is a closet chick-on-the-right who despises her husband’s policies!
Ok…where did it say Reagan did not bow?? Nevermind….every President has done it and that is fine. I am not going to argue with people I agree with politically on something so….

And her style sucked on that day and she should be ashamed of herself….that I agree!
Daisy: I agree! Who in the heck told her those belts right up under her boobs looks good?!
As to the bowing, to those that agree with it, need to study Asian culture and what it means. That way you will know what is so bad about it.
It is different in each part of Asia…My wife was in China for three years and we support plenty of people in foreign lands. In Japanese culture it is a sign of respect towards someone who bows, in Chinese culture it is a sign of someone lower then you and you bow towards that. So in each part of Asia bowing is different…Asia has many different cultures and if the Japanese were being compared to Chinese people…they would get angry. So in ending this argument….Asia has many different cultures and has many different meanings on what you do.
Why am I hearing Sesame Street music?
“One of these things is not like the other,
One of these things just doesn’t belong..”
The Obamas are classless people.
I like Michelle. I think she is terrifc mother and a terriffic human being as was Barbara Bush, but that dress and coat are ridiculous. She needs to bring it back down to earth and let Fashion maven thing go, she is forcing it.
Ok, she looks like some floosy from south Chicago. But that’s typical of trash that comes into money (Britney Spears).
