The dress first lady Michelle Obama wore at last night's state dinner was the topic of discussion last night on CNN:
One guest thought the cost of the dress was close to $10,000.
"Well, first of all, I love the dress on her because I think it's so elegant and so simple. I mean, that shape is what we call the princess shape.

The dress may not have been paid directly with a check from US Treasury....but do you know of any instance when any expensive gift is given to politicians without expecting quid pro quo? You betcha some favors will be doneor was already done to the donor in which case we the tax payers always lose.
As for the dress itself, it is just my personal dislike of excessively poofy dress bottoms. Only a bride should wear those.
The sleeping bag is hilarious!
