Today is a good day to die.
I didn't say for whom.

Her wardrobe choices have been making headlines for all the wrong reasons. And now Michelle Obama has hit back at the critics who reacted with anger after she chose to wear a British design to a White House formal dinner. In an interview with Good Morning America, the First Lady insisted she will continue to dress in the clothes that make her comfortable - regardless of the label.
She said: 'Look, women, wear what you love. 'That's all I can say. That's my motto. I wear what I like because...I gotta be in the dress, so...'
Michelle dazzled at the dinner in a flame red gown gown by British designer Alexander McQueen but the gesture fell on stony ground in the U.S. The decision, which some argued was taken because of the symbolism of the colour red in China, highlights the scrutiny devoted to the outfits the First Lady wears for state occasions. TV presenter Joan Rivers was the latest fashion figure to attack Michelle, branding her her choice 'badly advised and wrong'.
She told the Huffington Post: 'Wrong. Wrong. Sorry! Sorry, sorry, sorry, but we're pushing America and we're so behind in everything that we're doing.
'We're trying to push our own industries, the president's coming out and saying we've got to make more American stuff, you know what, darling?

Someone here has the photo of Carol Burnett doing a spoof of that scene from GWTW.
Please, please, please!
Tell me that is photoshopped!
She is certainly not paying for the major gowns she wears to state dinners. Those are almost invariably donated by the designers so as to get publicity and thus future sales.

She may or may not be paying for other clothes she wears; for instance, she did pay for the vintage black dress she wore at Christmas.
Not that I know of...but I did steal it from a freeper (forget who now).
It’s real. There is another one floating around the internet in which it is quite obvious her dressers had no clue a cold room and thin bra do not mix.
The bulge is making me queasy. Do she and Barak swordfight at night?
Now that is a scary picture
“Do she and Barak swordfight at night?”
No. Michelle doesn’t believe in fighting an unarmed man...
That’s gotta be one of the best photos of the wookie.
She’s got it on cockeyed. That shouldn’t be an off the shoulder look it’s supposed to be pulled up like the other half is.
BO must be thinking there’s no way I’m looking at that beotch.
Pfft ...
I’m no fan of Michelle Obama or what she usually wears, but that red dress with the gold was a stunning design and looked elegant on her.

Thanks for that...priceless!! LOL

LOL
That black butt shawl didn't go with it, either; especially not the ick-colored triangular tab sticking out the bottom of it behind her back, like an untucked shirttail.
At a distance, it looked like crinkles & shadows, but the closeups of it showed the ugly a-figural, asymmetric black streaking & splotching all over it...but it did manage to scream, “I'm a Chinese wannabe, greeting my Lord And Master!”
