MICHELLE OBAMA WEARS $2300 DRESS TO GREET POPE
Breitbart ^ | 9/25/15 | JOHN NOLTE

Posted on 09/24/2015 9:17:00 PM PDT by Impala64ssa

Politico reports that First Lady Michelle Obama, looking lovely and classy, greeted Pope Francis Tuesday while wearing a $2,290 dress. While the Obamas are not Catholics, this is still a finger-in-the-eye to a White House guest who frequently speaks out — to wild Democrat applause — about the evils of excessive capitalism.

Both President and Mrs. Obama are disciples of Jeremiah Wright, a racist Jew-hating Chicago-based preacher. Not long after Obama ascended to the presidency, Wright, Obama’s religious mentor for 20 years, retired to a $1 million, 10,400 square foot mansion located next to a country club and golf course.

According to WorldVision, you can feed a child for just $35 a month. Michelle Obama’s dress would feed over 80 children for that month. This choice obviously is contrary to the values of Pope Francis. But the Obamas’ religious values come from elsewhere, a divisive and disturbing place, not a charitable or unifying one.

Other than this quick Politico blurb that doesn’t even take issue with the cost of Mrs. Obama’s dress, nowhere else has this news been reported. Compare this to the media’s 2012 media “firestorm” over Ann Romney’s $990 dress, which she wore on a morning show, not to stand in the shadow of St. Peter.

Material= $40.00, McCall's pattern= $10.00, someone to home sew it= $50.00, getting some horses' ass to pay $2,300.00 for it= priceless. And that last sentence from this article: "Michelle Obama is a striking woman. She doesn’t need a $2300 dress to look good." I suppose beauty is in the eye of the BEERholder, just sayin

It’s like I can read that Monsignor’s mind.

“Michelle Obama is a striking woman.

...

That reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where the baby was called “breathtaking.”

“Michelle Obama, looking lovely and classy”

NOT A CHANCE.

I'm not normally interested in anything connected w fashion, or who wore what.

That said, Moochelle's dress caught my attention as it seemed to emphasize her... ahem... well, never mind...let's phrase it differently. I'll put it in the form of a question.

Might Moochelle have been wearing a bustle?

You think 23 hundred dollars is a lot for a nice dress? It's not, not at all.

I'm not a fan of Obama's tranny wife but 23 hundred is cheap for a nice enough dress to greet the pointed hat communist pope. My mom wears 6 thousand dollar outfits to go out to dinner in Palm Desert at Ruth's Chris.

Where is the outrage over this expense?

Want a 2nd opinion?

The dress is butt-ugly, too.

That frumpy dress is far from the worst thing she has worn in public as FLOTUS. I just hope she spent her own money to buy it. If so, I don’t care what she paid.

Too bad Reverent Wright couldn’t be there to say, “God damn the Pope.”

Of course I wouldn’t agree with that, but I do like to keep things in perspective when it comes to the Obama’s and Christians.

She still is not dressed properly. Should have been dressed in black while wearing a mantilla. Her daughters are closer to being correct that she is.

Michelle Obama is a striking woman.

Who is she striking, and why?

I remember the hard time the media would give Nancy Reagan. Mooch is infinitely more extravagant but not a word ever from the MSM bootlickers.

Incorrect.

Fawning and obsequious flattery certainly contains words.

Oh! No!

Not the dread “hundred dollar bill through a trailer park” gag again!
