~~PING!
Sure is. Can't say we didn't try to warn people.
The problem is, if you want to explain to others who and what he/Obama is, and you get basic things like that wrong, and these people know it's wrong, they'll doubt anything else you try to tell them. There's no better weapon than straight facts.
Good to see the White House tightening its belt! My apologies for bringing up the BELT!! LOL
RE: “Theyre still ugly no matter how much they cost.”

Agree - as O.J. said of the shoes he claimed he did NOT wear on the night of Nicole’s murder, “I would not wear those ugly a** shoes!!!” The ugly a** shoes were very expensive designer loafers.
Re Michelle, did she actually purchase those shoes herself, or did the house of Lanvin give her a gift? Could she even accept such a gift, legally? Or did someone else give her the shoes??? Maybe Ted Kennedy gave her the shoes knowing she would be the dog’s primary caregiver and needed comfy shoes, at least when staffers were not assigned that ‘walking’ duty she now claims is hers.
But yes, those are UGLY shoes!

Remember the big to-do when Piper Palin was seen haulig around mom’s (probably fake) Louis Vuitton handbag? OH, what an outcry over that one!
RE: “I think she still prefers her open-hoof sandals for gardening.”
*******
‘Open-hoof!’ LOL!! Stop, you’re killing me!
OH MY GOD - did you hear??? Palin spent a fortune on her wardrobe for the election! Can we please focus on that??? Wall-to-wall press coverage where it is due!
They had photos of him wearing those same "ugly *ss shoes" during some interview he did.
Re: “............First Lady with sneakers- of utmost importance.
I got it, believe me, I got it.”

Wearing those expensive designer ‘sneakers’ to serve meals at a food bank is a real faux pas for a ‘First Lady.’ Owning the shoes is not so much the problem as is the inappropriateness of showing them off at a food bank.
If the masses did not have any way of knowing these are ultra expensive designer sneakers it would not matter a bit, really.
I like designer accessories, too, but would think twice before wearing expensive items to assist at a food bank.

Oh that’s right — I remember the photos now — what a circus that was and here in L.A. it was especially insane.
Now I remember the designer’s name: Bruno Magli!!!
These are French sneakers and a gift from Sarkozy and Carla Bruni (my guess)
We all know Michelle came up the hard way and appreciates what a dollar is worth
“What an “elegant” First Lady”
We had a genuinely elegant, truly beautiful, intelligent and kind First Lady for eight years—Laura Bush. The media scum couldn’t stand the fact there was nothing to drum up against her.
Now they’re trying to pretend Michele is a demure and classy beauty/fashion icon. LOL
I only wear my cheap shoes when I’m worried about stepping in doggie do-do.
She’s riding high on things from country that she’s so ashamed of.
part of the bailout monies that m’obozo skimmed off for her personal use just like the professional makeup artist she needs.
You could buy 300 pairs of those ugly French Sneakers for the $150,000 that was spent on Governor Palin. And let us not forget that many of those clothes were never worn and were returned.
300 pairs of sneakers could just about take care of the Obama Entourage.
I think it shows a lack of common sense and a total disregard for how she is perceived by the “people”. This couple is disgusting.
She is the worst-dressed first lady (I refuse to capitalize) that I can remember. She is just weird.
