Geeze.. What is it with these people? Can't come up with anything to complain about in someone's record, so you start attacking their CLOTHES?

Granted, it was the Style section, but still...

[kcvl]

Which idiot at the Washington Post wrote that crap?! I noticed they didn't lend their name to it.

[Michael.SF.]

They have got nothing, pathetic.

[pbear8]

I thought they were a beautiful looking family. Most likely those were the kids Easter outfits.

[IRememberElian]

Admit it ... planting that lady out there, lifeless, with her two kids. That was just creepy.

[Dr.Hilarious]

They just can't stand it that someone is being presented to the nation who is just a smart, intelligent, decent person--they have to have overcome a drug habit or a "poor" upbringing (Clinton). The left is OBSESSED with judging people by socio-economic status and gender and race. If Roberts were a poor liberal black woman the Post would be publishing commemorative issues. But the very people who are always saying you shouldn't judge people by their race, gender or the amount of money in the bank account--or "judge" them for having a point of view that doesn't gibe with yours--can never, ever judge anyone by anything else.

Talk about superficial!

[Vision Thing]

Funny how the Washington Post writer of this article bemoans the 50s nostalgia of Judge Robert's family. We all can surmise that the writer longs for the smelly 60s and the shaggy-haired Woodward/Bernstein 70s.

[SpringheelJack]

This is the weirdest attack article on Roberts I've read yet.

[West Coast Conservative]

This is all they got? Looks like the Roberts confirmation is a sure thing.

[Echo Talon]

It sounded to me like whoever wrote that is jealous.

[Texan]

They looked wonderful.

So nice to see people dressed up for a change.

I suppose he'd rather see Mrs. Roberts in a black pants suit and pink blouse.

...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...

Ugh... MEGA Barf Alert on this one. You have to read this drivel for yourself to believe it's for real...

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.

You. Have. Got. To. Be. Kidding. Me.

I do not have an overly high opinion of junior college newspapers in this country but I would hesitate to accuse any one of them of publishing something this insipid. Condescension is generally a two-edged sword, but when employed in this plodding, ham-handed fashion it only cuts the wielder.

[kaehurowing]

The fact that the "style" page can do nothing but attack people who attempt to dress properly for one of the more important events that can occur in one's life--meeting the President of the United States who is nominating you for the Supreme Court--shows how messed up the liberal elite in this country are.

[nutmeg]

Beyond belief ping...

[k2blader]

Yikes, that pic is a little creepy. Why'd they do that to their children?

[durasell]

Since nobody has the guts to ask, then I'll ask the apparently forbidden question: what the hell is a "taupe pump?"

[mrsmel]

But these same kinds drooled over Jacqui and "Camelot". Hypocrites.

[Finalapproach29er]

I'm getting damn tired of the anti-white remarks by this newspaper and Letterman, among others.

It's getting old and offensive. The self-hating guilty, white libs should go live in France.

[jan in Colorado]

This was one pathetic article.

It's nice to see that some people still do dress with class and modesty.
