So here we are again. The biggest scandal to hit the White House: How much skin is really in?
Hours upon hours have been spent talking about what a first lady should or should not wear. First, it was whether or not she had the right to bare arms, and now, pictures of Michelle wearing short shorts while on holiday with her family during yesterdays trip to the Grand Canyon are sparking a similar debate. While most women would agree that shorts (at any length) are often tough to pull off, I think we should line up with hands raised to offer her a high five. And since she is gifted with those long legs, I beg the question wouldn't all shorts be "short" on her?
So to be short and to the point (pun intended), what do you think about Michelle dressing relaxed like the rest of us? Is it OK for her to be casual and comfortable with her body? Or do you feel she should be more conservative, offering a polished reserved example at all times?

I despise the woman. That said, she looks pretty darn good in those shorts, and those aren’t short shorts. I’ve worn short shorts and those aren’t them.
If she wanted to wear shorts, she could have at least not have done the denim thing.
She can wear England’s crown jewels for all I care....I just want these people to go away.
I understand.
She’s certainly lowering the bar for all future First Ladies, isn’t she? Yeesh!
I’ve seen nicer legs on a pool table.
pot belly aside...
I’m wondering why the GOP is not out there screaming about chairman zero spamming American’s....or what about the IE that was fired for political reasons...
Much to do about nothing
She is wearing what any cryto marxist black nationalist american mom would wear
No, the shorts aren’t indecently short. Yes, her legs look better than mine do (which is why I’m wearing an ankle-length dress). Yes, the whole outfit, especially the overblouse that’s *too small* has an effect of UNNNGH.
Looks good in the shorts?
her bow legs look like tree trunks, her a$$ could apply for its own zip code.
Cover it up, Mao-chelle. You’re a stain on the White House.
Da, da, da, da, da, da ...
YES!
Shes certainly lowering the bar for all future First Ladies, isnt she? Yeesh!
She is just a little short on refinement and class.
Has anyone noticed how the real Michelle is coming out more and more since she became First Lady? Yep; she represents her people alright. I deserve it and you don’t and all.
Problem is she doesn’t know what to do with it. Only how to destroy it.
EXACTLY, dear DollyCali!
There’s a lot more to blame these poseurs for than what shorts Michelle wears-let’s keep it real people and not dilute the real message about how they’re bankrupting our country and eventually, our currency.
BTW:She doesn’t look half bad in those shorts.
I could not possibly care less, not in the least, not a tinker's damn, not a fiddler's.....
This is just the MSM shouting, "Don't think about what we're doing!! Look OVER HERE!"
