AP Lauds Michelle Obama's 'Superstar Glamor'; Mocks Russian First Lady

The way the Associated Press is fawning over Michelle Obama and her supposed sense of fashion, you would almost think they were talking about Carla Bruni who really does dress quite elegantly and oozes glamor. To add to this absurdity, the AP also went out of its way to paint the Russian First Lady as frumpy. Um, advice to AP personnel; don't expect the Russians to go out of their way to help you in your stories in that country after that gratuitous slam on the wife of their president. First let us watch the AP's Catrina Stewart act dazzled over the "superstar glamor" of Michelle Obama:

MOSCOW (AP) - Michelle Obama brings her superstar glamor to Moscow this weekend as she accompanies her husband on his summit with the Russian president.

But the American first lady, who has wowed publics in the U.S. and Europe with her easy elegance and charm, will perhaps face a bigger challenge in winning over a Russian public that has scant respect for women who grab the limelight from their powerful husbands.

I have the HOTS for someone who really does have "superstar glamor"---Carla Bruni. Is that woman not perfect? She carries herself like an angel.

No wonder Michelle HATES her.

I wouldn’t go to church with my wife wearing the stuff Obama wears . . . her dresses look like you could camp in them.

". . . her dresses look like you could camp in them."

A few more years of her husband's economic policies, we may all have to be able to camp in our clothes. She's just getting a utilitarian step up.

It will be real shame when the last of these old media dinosaurs finally bites the dust. Because I don't know anyone, liberal or conservative, that thinks Michelle Obama is some kind of Jackie Kennedy reincarnate. In fact, I don't really know anyone, liberal or conservative, that doesn't think she looks like a scowling, ill-dressed linebacker. Even big Obama fans I know don't buy this glamour schtick.

How can the media be so out of touch? Or are they really just so married to the razzle dazzle that they've convinced themselves it's true? I guess love truly is blind...

To have the media salivating at Michelle Øbama’s so-called chic fashion sense is an inverted-world version of those who watch the pomp parade featuring the emperor with no clothes. I want to laugh, but knowing all those people are blind by choice is somehow very sad.
