President Barack Obama held a news conference Thursday to reveal important information regarding Russia financing and arming separatists in Ukraine, migrant children in the U.S. and his strategy for defeating the Islamic State in Syria, but all eyes seemed to focus on his suit. The president addressed the press in a pale, khaki-colored suit, and the Internet exploded. .

On my TV it looked sort of whiteish. I thought it might have been a hand-me-down from FDR!

He’s got tan shoes with pink shoelaces
A polka dot vest and man, oh, man
Tan shoes with pink shoelaces
And a big Panama with a purple hat band

Geez, it's just a summer suit. It's before Labor Day, so what's the problem?

I have a lot more problems with the man than this suit.

This reminds me of a true story that happened in Houston when my husband was in the oil business 30 years ago. A business partner from Italy came to a summertime meeting in Houston wearing a suit that looked like it was made of burlap. The Houston guys were teasing him about the unusual fabric (it was probably silk).

He shrugged and said, “I know nothing. Gina (his wife) says this is “chic”. Doesn’t seem chic to me.” Everybody had a good laugh.

Actually, he doesn't look too bad in tan.

I don’t give a damn about the suit one way or the other, but leave it to the media to jump in and remind us how stylish Obama is. They always defend their man.

D.C. is a southern city. An tan suit is the least of my worries. If Resident Obobo is to be faulted, it's because he's a filthy muzzie, commie, narcissistic, race-baiting, manchurian candidate, soros-tool, empty suit, empty chair, liar, phony, literal bastard, small minded, low IQ, nose picking, faggoty,, affirmative action, "Donny you're out of your depth", America hating POS.

I've known perfectly good Presidents who have owned tan suits. Ronaldus Magnus comes to mind.

...held a news conference Thursday to reveal important information

BS. He didn't reveal anything, and he was just pretending to give a hoot.

In California, brown and tan are acceptable shades for business suits, according to John T. Molloy's Dress For Success. Mr. Obama is supposedly from Illinois.
