I'd wager this was written by that venomous Robin Givhan.

She is the bitter, petty, envious and conniving twit who wrote this. She must have a very lonely life with only "status-friends", no family, and a cat for her companion.

BTW - I'm not defending the article. Just saying that I didn't like the way they were posed by the politicos.

"There was only the feeling that, in the desire to be appropriate and respectful of history, the children had been costumed in it."

Sheesh, you'd think that the kids had on little Pilgrim outfits with hats,and that Mrs. Roberts was wearing a tight-laced corset and a hoop skirt,reading this tripe.Obviously this petty columnist has not a clue about rising to the occasion.

I bet that she thought that the Kerry daughter who was snapped in a dress that left absolutely nothing to the imagination,was just peachy.Ick, if I'd been John Kerry,I'd have felt squirmy seeing my daughter dressed that way and with all her "assets" on display-but I'm sure he didn't.

The gossip columnist wrote it. At least that is how Michelle Malkin described her. Evidently this is how the woman makes her living, writing nasty superficial attack articles, kind of like the Don Rickles of the Washington Post, a real talented lady. Right.

This article was nothing compared to the one in the NYT that was written to insinuate that Roberts was possibly gay.

Just wait until John Edwards is resurrected, with his Breck look, and the wife and kids all dressed up and in tow! They're the Left's "dream" family.

Yeah. Try this one or scroll up to #163 above. Apparently, this is the writer.

You've got to be kidding. I wish one of these idiots would ever say anything again about "the politics of personal destruction",and just one high level highly-visible Republican leader would ever have the cojones to call them on it.

Looks like she left the house in her underwear. Probably paid a fortune for the "frock," too.

The NYT ran article discussing the fact that Roberts attended an all boys Catholic school, played on the wrestling team where he had to grappe on the ground with sweaty bodies of other boys and played the part of Peppermint Patty in a school play. They followed that up with pictures of him in a wrestling uniform and one in a pair of plaid pants. The tone of the whole article was that the guy isn't exactly a man's man, or maybe he is exactly that.

Something about "people who live in glass houses" comes to mind at the moment. LOL! Gotta love that Google "images" inventory.

Thanks - she's an attractive woman, but is that her slip showing beneath her dress?

In defense of "old money", I associate it with people who have been around a long time with a record of public service, good name and reputation and a certain honesty. Now I know that isn't always true. Nor is it true that those who come up and earn their own way are always honest.

Roberts is clearly honest and decent. And prospers.

I should have known.

As if she has any room to talk about what people "should" wear.

BTW, Ms. Gavin, Jane Roberts is an Washington attorney and you are a ?????. And the Roberts' children are adopted.

I guess when you can't find anything else nasty to write about them you roll around in the mud. I bet she also wrote articles praising Hillary Clinton's "fashion".

There they were -- John, Jane, Josie and Jack -- standing with the president and before the entire country. The nominee was in a sober suit with the expected white shirt and red tie. His wife and children stood before the cameras, groomed and glossy in pastel hues -- like a trio of Easter eggs, a handful of Jelly Bellies, three little Necco wafers.

I suspect Robin Givhan's aesthetic sensibilities are more consistent with a couple of rotten eggs, a pair of jellyfish... (or two yellow-bellies, take your choice), two lethal neked wafflers....

Now what do you expect from Robin Givhan?

She's obsessed with what Republicans wear (remember her article about Condi's boots?)
