The height of etiquette: Michelle Obama towers over Japanese emperor

I think so, too.

[Tax-chick]

I know. I was just thinking like a normal person who would want to be polite to foreign heads of state in their own country.

Mrs Obama, who is 5ft 9in tall, also caused embarrassment earlier in the day when she grabbed Akie Abe, wife of Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, in a hug-and-handshake combination while the Japanese First Lady was trying to bow.

I could have sworn there was a protocol office in the White Hut that made sure this crap didn't happen. I guess the Obamas know better than all.

Nancy Reagan was always well turned-out, too.

[Reeses]

Later that night the prime minister was speaking privately with his wife: "Dear Akie, I think you've been spending a little too much time with our American guest."
First Lady replies: "Shinzō, why is you layin' such a f'in jive ass trip on me?"

[Night Hides Not]

Damn, there’s a whorehouse in DC that’s missing a few draperies.

[hattend]

What a dumbass

[chris37]

I agree completely.

I cannot even look at this “woman”. “She” is utterly without grace or class, the sight of “her” is offensive to my eyes, and I basically find “her” to be repugnant.

I am trying really hard to be nice when I talk about it, so I stop now.

Calipha Obama actually has quite a large personal staff, but I believe they are fully engaged soliciting POTUS pardon bribe offers for Jan 2017.

What’s that leftward bulge coming off the midsection of that curtain? (’

[mellow velo]

You owe me a new keyboard! LOL!!

[chris37]

The thing that gets me is that her hips go up to at least 5 feet, and the top of her shoulders appear to be at about 6 ft. She's all leg, and ain't none of it pretty.

Beyond that, her arms and hands are so long that her knuckles leave trails in the dirt, and then to top it all off is her spectacular jutting under bite.

She is a true work o fart

[So Cal Rocket]

Yes... I knew I've seen that dress somewhere before:

Does the emperor need a full-time tall, dark geisha ‘girl’ for his entourage? Quite an international conversational piece she would make. No sugar in her green tea though, ehehehe.

[Tax-chick]

I have a 14-year-old like that.

[tflabo]

Where’s that Stacie and Clinton guy of ‘what not to wear’ meeting an emperor? What an optical assault on the eyes.

[Polyxene]

“dwarfed the Emperor in her silver stilettos”

Knowing she would tower over the Emperor, Mooch could have worn flats or low heels (and wore something more subdued than that shower curtain outfit!)

[Safetgiver]

Most classless people on earff.

[patriot08]

Yes, Nancy was always attractive and graceful indeed.
