Michelle Obama comes out on top

With all the fuss over what Michelle Obama wore in Europe over the past several days, it was this weekend's fashion faceoff with French first lady Carla Bruni-Sarkozy in France that everyone awaited.

The winner? Obama, by a thread.

Bruni has way less makeup and is naturally beautiful. They really have to powerwash the lipstick, eyeliner and pancake on the pig.

I don’t like Michelle or her ‘style’, but the french first lady is no lady. Michelle, for all her faults, isn’t known for sleeping with everything that has two legs...or having a baby with the SON of her ‘lover’.

Michelle is, in all probability, a better person and wife than Carla.

I do feel sorry for Mrs. Sarkozy that she has to wear boring flats with a fabulous dress. Even when her husband wears elevators, she is still taller than he is.

Oui, I was speaking in the “sens du mode” only. Although the French take a different view on these matters than we do.

LOL-Forgot that one.I work with lasers and I had a senior engineer use the term “ghettotastic” to describe a really cheesy laser process that wasnt quite working well.She had a Masters degree and it totally caught me off guard and we laughed for a half hour.

This is one of the few dresses that MO hasn’t screwed up. However, given the close-up, I have to go with Carla.

“Crap-tacular” also applies to MO

My God. Grace Jones has been reanimated as FLOTUS.

Please tell me that wasn’t from the G20?

“Are you kidding? The Chicago-Trib must be getting stimulus money. Good grief.”

You should hear the mindless gushing over Michelle on the Chicago tv news. Not surprised that the Trib would write a story like this. The comments after the article are pretty funny. Lots of people proclaiming that the empress has no clothes....

Thug Michelle looks like a Peterbilt in a grateful dead tent.

You’re not the only one.

I can’t understand how she puts some things together that she does.

Well, you can’t say that she doesn’t get a LOT of use out of that belt. I wonder if she has it in another color.

You can't fool me! That's the First Lady Title Belt! Next title match: 2012!
