As long as the Obama's pays for their girl's clothes, no problem.

But I suspect money for the "rights" to dress their kids is going into some blind trust for "later".

What are the chances the MSM will ask Mrs. Obama how she reconciles no Beanie Baby likenesses, but dressing the preteen girls up for the cameras is okay...?

And the other question remains: Does J Crew promise substantial donations in return for all the trotting?

Sasha never appears happy and Malia has attrocious posture, she is clearly going to be very tall and has the same slouch as her mother going on already,.

now we have two spoiled brats in training in the WH (or Russia presently)

Children should not be used this way.

Anyway, the girls look ridiculous.
I see no reason not to criticize them or their 'fashion'. They are not the average children right now, nor will ever be.

Pimping the first daughters.

Typical.

Guess the beanie baby company didn’t offer any $$$$ so they were smacked down.

I have one J.Crew shirt. I will be using it when I dye my hair.

Why? Their old clothes were classic preppy styles; it’s their new ones that have moved in the “hipster” direction.

Hot damn, I knew this wasn’t anything more than a marketing scam. And to correct the record, I once knew they were private... I have since learned that they are public - and only have for a couple years.


From wikipedia (yes, again):

J.Crew, a large stake of which was owned by private equity giant TPG Capital, had its stock market debut initial public offering on June 28, 2006. The company’s share price opened over 25% above its IPO offer price on its first day of trading.

The company is listed on the NYSE under the stock ticker JCG. CEO Millard Drexler, a veteran of Gap, took control of 15% of the company following the IPO. Drexler joined the company as CEO and chairman in 2003, and named Jeff Pfeifle as president.


Doesn’t this outrage anyone? Their parents, aka the President of the United States of America and the First Lady, are using their own kids to fill Drexel’s deep corporate pockets in return for campaign contributions.

In the past, first lady Michelle Obama has publicly credited J.Crew a number of times for designing her duds...

J.Crew? I thought Michelle bought all her dresses at Country Curtains.

So they dress the first punishments in J Crew...

At least they didn’t go to the Gap. /seinfeld

"first punishments"

LOL, I forgot about that.

Shall we refer to them from now on as "FP#1 and FP#2" ?

Just go back through my prior comments, back at Christmas I did a Dr Seuss/Who rhyme using ‘punishment 1 and punishment 2’.
