I wonder how many horses are missing hair from their tails for Ms. Obama to get that hairdo.

"SUNDAY

Recalling Shy Di: We couldn't help but recall Princess Diana when Obama turned up in Prague wearing a jumbo-bowed white blouse by Moschino, with a Michael Kors black pencil skirt and her signature Azzedine Alaia belt. Is there any political fashion icon in the past half-century that Obama has left unreferenced and un-updated? We think not."

You mean this hideous thing?

LOL.

The Angry Black Woman has worn that belt TOO many times to be coincidental......lets start a conspiracy theory...it is her homing device/power pack/teleporter/ and not merely a cheap arse looking patent leather belt.

Are you kidding? The Chicago-Trib must be getting stimulus money. Good grief. Obama’s liberal views are a throwback to the 70’s and Michelle’s clothes look like the sofa cushions on my grandmother’s couch.

Carla Bruni is a looker, maybe not as much as during her modelling days, but she continues to maintain herself. Michelle is as wide as a 747. I hear they are making a movie about her called A$$ Force One. Until I saw her, I didn’t realize “double-wide” could be a size as well as a house.

To even imply that Michelle Obama is more fashionable than Bruni is like journalism malpractice. But hey, if you want to keep getting invited to the state dinners, you gotta say baby looks great in upholstery.

The belt looks like it came from John Candy's atrocious disguise (when he goes into the salon) in the movie "Who's Harry Crumb?"

It looks like some kind of medical restraint gone wrong.

Some kind of medical restraint from the 19th century.
