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...

Just so people can see what the fuss is all about:

It was a beautiful image. I also think the kids were brought out to remind the Dims that when they lauch their assinine fact-free attacks on Supreme Court nominees, they are working to tear down not just a man, but a family.

This is just hilarious. WaPo's "style" editorial is oozing with helpless hatred, like they are watching the world change around them and are utterly unable to do anything about it. They're mellllting...

This is totally immature and immaterial. Before you know it, somebody is going to be yelling at Judge Roberts, "I know you are but what am I?"

There was nothing wrong with his family being with him, and I thought they were all dressed very proper. In fact, it was quite refreshing to see those cute little kids. The losers at the WP are just mad because Bush got to appoint someone for the SCOTUS position. Jealousy is a terrible thing! They're just going to have to deal with it.

Everybody should send them a comment.

Here is a copy of the one I just sent them

"Re: An Image A Little Too Carefully Coordinated

This is the most immature and immaterial bit of writing I have seen in quite awhile (that is saying A lot!). It is pathetic that your writer attacks the choice of clothes a loving mother puts on her children. This is not at all out of the ordinary for well dressed children going to the WHITE HOUSE on such an important occasion.

Pathetic, just Pathetic. "

" But the Roberts family went too far. ... There was only the feeling that, in the desire to be appropriate and respectful of history,
the children had been costumed in it."

Trashing the children's clothes has got to be a new low, even for the Washington Post.
I'd wager this was written by that venomous Robin Givhan.
Apparently she would have preferred mini dashikis and do rags on the tykes.

Liberals will find anything to attack someone. Hey if you look like a 50s family, you're "square" and "uncool." I suppose they would have attacked Roberts family if they showed up in street clothes wearing flip flops. With the Left, conservatives just can't win - even on matters of style.

This has to be one of the meanest pieces I've ever seen. The idea that in dressing respectfully -- I'd say beautifully -- for the White House they were doing a marketing campaign...well, it makes my blood boil. Some libs need to get a life.

These clothes are Old World, old money and a cut above the light-up/shoe-buying hoi polloi.

What are the "light-up/shoe-buying hoi polloi"? This reference escapes me entirely!

Is this the same "style" reporter who attacked Condi Rice's "dominatrix" outfit?

Odd how Republicans are the only ones ever criticized for their outfits. Have any of these people bothered to notice that Hillary Clinton and Ellen Degeneres share a closet?

Geeze.. What is it with these people?

Of course it was staged and everything in it was planned by marketing consultants, so what? Does anyone think they were going to show the kids with grape juice on their clothes? Does anyone think that any of the Slick Willie photo-ops weren't. For that matter does anyone think that any of Hitlery or upChuck's photo-ops aren't stage managed. Of course the compost didn't mention that.

Since the author of this piece of manure is not identified, nor is the article identified as an Editorial, I conclude that this is the official position of THE WASHINGTON COMPOST!

Probably THE COMPOST was irked because no 'DEEP THROATER' at the COMPOST was able to leak the name of the nomination. I hope the President follows up by cancelling the daily 'GOTCHA' press sessions. Let the Journalists all 'DEEP THROAT' each other!

Is the Post still taking multi page advirtisments from Saudi Arabia extoling the wonderfulness of this corrupt
piece of garbbage third world crap hole?

This once proud source for information has become little more then a propaganda rag.

OMG. What a snotty article that was just LOOKING for something to complain about. To complain how the Roberts family was dressed is just someone who HAD to write something negative about the other night and this was the best they could do.
