I have been hearing “optics” more lately.. When did we drop “appearance” and “image” and start saying “optics”. no offense to you of course.. meh.
Michelle purchased this stuff? Or was it donated to her?
It is bling well befitting the ‘hood except if it were literally in he ‘hood it would probably be rhinestones and gold plate so as not to be all that tempting a theft target.
Doesn’t the “Queen” have any side enterprises such as selling autobiographies or charging to speak to audiences, by which she might have legitimately raised the funds? She holds no Constitutional office, and thus is free to do things Barack could not.
Think she’ll return the loaners to the jewelry store, or will she try to rip them off like some of those klepto Hollywood actresses?
Her hope has turned out to be more than chump change.
Who knows how it came into her possession and it may be sponsor product placement for all we know.
Republicans can’t spend big money on jewelry, witness Newt’s Tiffany’s revolving credit debacle.
How do you know that it was borrowed?
“Michelle Obama, the most glamorous of all U.S. First Ladies”
************************
That is an outright lie.
“Its good to be Queen.”
Yep, next up will be a diamond studded tiarra.
Thanks.
Jewels she never worked a day in her life for. She’s as big a con as her husband. All the fruit of crime.
Id like to know why no one in the media has brought up what Michelle “All this for a flag” Obama said during the 9/11 ceremony..oops, I almost forgot..the media, actually report the truth about their messiah, I just made a funny
Michelle is definitely much more manly than Barack.
Loaned or not, it looks terrible—unthinking, unfeeling, uncaring—when so many Americans are suffering (which makes them happy, I know.)
Laura Bush would never have worn something so ostentatious but when you think you’re the dictator of Zimbabwe, of course this is appropriate.
Reparations!
It starts with the queen saying, "Let them eat cake."
It ends with the 'clang' of a guillotine.
So it's not just me who's noticed this stupid and pernicious corruption of the language. "Optics," for crying out loud...
LOL. I had the same exact thought!!! “most glamorous” in her dreams and absolutely nowhere else.
That hug looks weird. Maybe she just hugged him or was about to, but it looks like she doesn’t want to smudge her nails.
I just started noticing that myself. I would say within the last 12 months. I heard a lawyer use it back in March, that was the first tine I really noticed it enough to remember that I heard it.
That's the picture they have on the McDonald's Angry Meal.
MAO (Michelle Antoinette Obama) sure has come along way from her complaint about GWB’s $600 stimulus checks...”What can you do with $600, buy a pair of earrings?”
How crass and ‘in’ an economically suffering populace’s ‘face.’
