Father and son are dressed identically -- running shoes, T-shirts. And jeans, always jeans. If mother is there, she, too, is draped in denim.

Could be worse... they could be dressed in Snuggies.

Throw a denim baseball at Will and see if he catches it.

Weren’t denim overalls the uniform of the outer party in “1984?”

Tom Wolfe observed in “I am Charlotte Simmons” that the college youth of the early 200’s dress like 6 year olds: khaki shorts, t-shirts and flip flops.

Proof that not all the elitists are in the Democrat party. Obama and his minions are destroying our economy, stealing our liberty and handing a suffocating tax burden to our children and grandchildren, and Will is worried about denim?

Carhart jeans & workboots, practically my uniform.

Am I alone in thinking that George Will is off his rocker? Who elected him as the clothing police?

One thing's for sure--Mr. Will would look silly in jeans--and he's jealous of those who don't.

Something written by George Will?

It’s a wonder that Mr. Will can see well enough to write with his nose shoved so far up Odumbos ass.

When George Will goes off track, he goes far, far off track.

Obviously we need state intervention. This is a shocking state of affairs and can’t be allowed to continue. After all, what will the other countries think of us? We’ll take care of defense and the economy later.

Down on the corner, by the traffic light,
everybody’s lookin’, as she goes by,
they turn their heads and they, watch her till she’s gone.

Lord have mercy, Baby’s got her blue jeans on!
up by the bus stop, and across the street,
open up their windows, to take a peek,
y’all she goes walking, rockin’ like a rollin’ stone.

Heaven help us, baby’s got her blue jeans on!

As I posted on Trixie’s board:

Isn’t George Will that writer who used to pen rhapsodic prose for the Opening Day of baseball and an occasional conservative think piece? Didn’t he change sides to write about his man-crush over The Annointed One during election season? I don’t remember - he is dead to me...

Money talks

but it don’t sing and dance
and it don’t walk.
And long as I can have you here with me

I’d much rather be
forever in blue jeans.

Honey’s sweet.
But it ain’t nothing next
to baby’s treat.
And if you pardon me

I’d like to say we’ll do okay

forever in blue jeans.

Maybe tonight

maybe tonight
by the fire all alone you and I;
nothing around but the
sound of my heart and your
sighs.

Money talks.
But it can’t sing and dance
and it can’t walk.
And long as I can have you here with me

I’d much rather be
forever in blue jeans
babe.

And honey’s sweet.
But it ain’t nothing next

And if you pardon me

I’d like to say we’ll do okay

forever in blue jeans.

Maybe tonight

maybe tonight
by the fire all alone you and I;
nothing around but the
sound of my heart and your
sighs.

And money talks.
But it don’t sing and dance
and it don’t walk.
And long as I can have you here with me

I’d much rather be
forever in blue jeans.

And long as I can have you here with me

I’d much rather be

OK, I'm going to turn a couple of muddy Labrador Retrievers loose on Will and his $1500 Brooks Brothers suit.

He'll wish he had some jeans.

And you bet I don't dress up to fly any more. They shoehorn you into a seat with your knees pressed against your chin, and you wait and sweat for hours. Who wants to ruin good clothing at a cattle call?

Thirty five years ago they were called “dungarees”, and my Mother had the same rant about them.

“Are you going out to work in a potato field? Why can’t you where a nice pair of Chinos and an Oxford shirt once in a while?”

Denim is comfortable, washable, wears (weathers) well, is (can be) inexpensive, and can be made into many types of clothing.

Get over it George.
There's nothing wrong with wearing denim.
It has it's place in life just as a $1,500 suit does.

Obama will not let this denim crisis go to waste - right now he’s planning an initiative to open up more trade with Cuba by importing Castro-style olive fatigues to clothe his civilian national treason corps...
