Thanks for your kind comments. I am going to try to contact one or two people.....I heard them talking on t.v. today and they didn’t seem to think there was anything wrong with anything that was said last night. What’s new about that?

WE ALL KNEW THE MEDIA WOULD LAP IT UP AS USUAL!

[Arizona Carolyn]

Her butt-ugly personal dresser needs to introduce her to a good undergarment fitter and get those boobs and a few other things in the right place if she is going to insist on wearing clothing at least a size too small.

[Arizona Carolyn]

Wow! If MSNBC said that, imagine what Fox people must be thinking.

[Arizona Carolyn]

Oh you know Olbermann and Maddow loved what she had to say... Olbie was practically rolling in the aisles.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Yeah, just another angry black lesbian calling for the death of a white man..... nothing unusual about that.

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

You would think that a 50 year-old multi-millionaire could afford a comb and would know how to use it

Give him a break! He and Kyra got wiped out with Bernie Madoff!

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

it was announced that Wanda Sykes would be the host of a new late night talk show on Saturdays on FOX

Most likely FOX Network, not FOX News.

[Netizen]

That’s bad enough.

no kidding!

[Chickensoup]

she’s preggers.

That is the major way that the administration is going to control the news over the next year.

I’ve had a busy couple of days so I’ve missed the big White House Correspondents dinner news. I do appreciate the ping and will catch up on reading all about it tomorrow. Thank you, STARWISE.

I figured this outfit out. The necklace is something taken from an African native, formerly worn through the bottom of his lip. The red pin/decoration is actually a left-over stick on bow from the box that the necklace came in. Michelle didn't know which was the present, so she wore both!

And, are those panty lines in this side view? My goodness, Michelle needs lycra and a good support bra. She looks like a sausage stuffed in this dress. The fact that it is a lovely dress, and a great color, is ruined by the fact that she doesn't know to get the right size, and wear the proper undergarments

[siamesecats]

You are funny!
Stick on bow :)
Thanks for the laugh this morning!

[Neverforget01]

she’s preggers

When women are pregnant they usually have boobs.

[trisham]

Well, in all fairness, there’s one sitting right in front of her.

[Neverforget01]

LOL

[CitizenM]

Good, I am glad you had a laugh. But, truly, I was being "series." What else could that red thing be?

I read the story once about George Burns and Gracie Allen. Gracie was always well dressed. Her thought was...after putting on jewelry, she always took one item off just before she went out. She never wanted to be overdone. That's good taste. A quality Michelle is surely lacking. It is a shame, every woman should look her best, especially one so prominent.

Really only little more attention has to be done that would help her appearance so much. Things even the average woman does (like sizes that fit, colors that match, and no belts on top of clothes under the bustline). I heard "someone" has her measurements (a closely guarded secret) and they tailor her clothes to fit. Must be a blind tailor.

[siamesecats]

Blind Tailor

You may be right

ROFLMAO

[STARWISE]

Me busy now, too .... you’re welcome .. ;)
