Caption Obama and co. at honoring of Ted Kennedy

[Yaelle]

That outfit is perfectly appropriate... For 10th grade study hall. And for the 4th period biology class where today we are studying scarabs and dung beetles.

Can't the First Lady get an Oprah bra? Or ANY bra would help.

And under the dung beetle chain, there is another one with perhaps a White House Restroom Key on it?

Why are they all wearing black?

Is it Teddy’s wake?

[Neverforget01]

LOL!

[Yaelle]

Ted: "As long as you get health care nationalized soon, my people won't turn on your people. You're doing a great job, don't eff it up!"

[Yaelle]

"C'mon, Michelle. Let's do the 'Everybody's Out of Work But Us' dance again!"

[Neverforget01]

To be fair, that second picture is from another event where she wore the same dress.

I don't know why she wore it again; it was ugly enough the first time. I guess she figured the bling dressed the outfit up enough for the Kennedy Center.

James Taylor always gives me the creeps — I think he looks like everybody’s favorite pedaphile.

Who’s the lady in the lavender dress assuming the position?

[Palladin]

Someone said the three wearing gowns are opera singers???

[Palladin]

The one in lavender is Flicka Von Stade.

“The Massachusetts Democrat, whose birthday was on Feb. 22, received the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award during an evening that included performances by Broadway stars Bernadette Peters and Brian Stokes Mitchell, opera singers Denyce Graves and Frederica von Stade, singer James Taylor, actress Lauren Bacall, comedian Bill Cosby and others. “

Teddy, after his most famous drive around the island, wearing his elegant collar:

Looks like Michelle also wore this hideous outfit when she met the Prime Ministers wife....

[Fresh Wind]

That picture clears up a lot. The blue thing doesn’t look a bit like a scarab. That’s a relief.

Unfortunately, what it does look like is even worse. Apart from the color and the tapering toward the top, it looks like the business end of a certain part of the male anatomy.

[Cloverfarm]

She finally has an appropriate dress.

Maybe the necklace is a kids’ craft project ...?

" Did you hear the one about the Honkie meeting St. Peter..."

[Albion Wilde]

...is that Bill Cosby?????

It looks like Bill; also the guy on the right end looks like the old "Fire and Rain" singer James Taylor, but I'm not sure.

[Albion Wilde]

Whenever he does that big unctuous grin with the head cocked back on his neck, it always reminds me of Jim Carrey doing that move to represent a soulless phony in The Truman Show.

[Albion Wilde]

[Albion Wilde]

I believe that is the necklace worn.

Wrong. She just likes regal diamond jewelry, that's all, like a tiara around her neck. Wonder if they are real?
