She really does wear that belt all the time. Wonder if she sleeps in it?

Photo #6 is atrocious.

[azishot]

Why does she do that???? Such class, such a lady, such crap.

I wonder if the professional gardeners they hired will get any credit.

LOL Wide Stance strikes again!

Funny, you can't tell when Michelle is dressed for gardening, or dressed to give a speech. She wears almost the same thing. The belt, be it the dog collar type, or the plastic clear one...and tight pants, a too small sweater, and tennis shoes. There is no difference in her appearance whether in the garden or the galleria. She always looks like a farm hand.

And, yes, as others have commented, there is no way she tended this garden, watered, fertilized and weeded it - nor did those kids, I bet. WH gardners probably did all the work. What about the toxic ground we were told about?

The one with the worm:
Is that you Barack?

[bmwcyle]

Did she get a mule with that?

If these kids were out in CA that would be their career given the disaster of a school district they go to.

They would have to work for less than the illegal Mexican aliens though.

I think i finally figured it out.
She wears the belt outside the sweaters so the sweaters don’t flop open and show how small her breasts are in comparison to her a$$

“What is the deal with the belts?? “

I think the belts are to squeeze the fat roll that hangs over the top of her girdle up into her bra.

What is the deal with the belts? I think it’s part of the body armor she has to wear.
