EDGARTOWN, Mass. -- President Barack Obama is wrapping up his vacation on Martha's Vineyard and heading for New Orleans to mark the fifth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina.

This woman has NO clue what is appropriate for her age, her body, or her status in life.

Whatever happened to all her assistants? She is really getting some bad advice.

ROFLOL...Can’t wait to tell that one!

” BTW Malia sure has grown. Ever notice, however, she is always with Daddy, and Sasha always clinging to Mommy? “

When Barry was at a rally in Kansas City this summer for Robin Carnahan,
he went off the teleprompter and into a very weird, even by his standards, discussion of Malia.
Complete with Bill Cosbyish intonations and hand gestures
around his mouth, in case the audience
didn’t understand orthodontics.
She’s muh baaaybee ...she’s muh baaaaybeee..

Jake Tapper must have thought the whole thing was bizarre
and he helpfully edited
Barry’s remarks in his report.
The video accompanying Tapper’s report shows that Tapper
left off “ for me “
when he quoted Barry as saying it was good Malia got braces because she was starting to look “ too old.”

” I don’t have teenagers yet Malia just turned 12,” Obama told the crowd,
“She’s my baby.
Even though she’s 5’9” now she’s still my baby.
And she just got braces which is good because
you know she looks like a kid.
She was getting you know she was starting
to look too old.” ( “ for me “ )

Look at the distance between Barack and Michelle.

Is it me or love-o-meter reading down into the minuses here. Cold baby cold.

Ladies out their, you have antennae for this stuff, what the heck is going on here....

[McLynnan]

I don’t know, but I can’t recall another FLOTUS who presented herself to the public with so little pride in her appearance. Even Hillary had more sense than this greasy hair and all.

My money is on a long weekend at Camp David, and maybe another “leisurely five-hour round of golf” with Thomas Friedman, (or some other MSM-type).

[hoosiermama]

Have been referring to her as MOOch -helle.
The MOO because she wear black and white so much. (Holstein built like a prize winner heifer))
Mooch stolen from RUSH.
helle is self explanatory.

You mean sycophants, given her speech...

"Barack Obama will require you to work. He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your divisions. That you come out of your isolation, that you move out of your comfort zones. That you push yourselves to be better. And that you engage. Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual, uninvolved, uninformed."

My guess she who shall not be named the 2nd, doesn't take kindly to the mirror mirror on the wall routine. She is the more militant ideologue of the two and does not take advice well from others IMHO....

MO is packing a crate of lobsters under that skirt.
Maybe not, lol. Maybe she's just yearning for a Marilyn Monroe moment. I wonder if this pic will get pulled from the internet?

” My money is on a long weekend at Camp David, and maybe another “leisurely five-hour round of golf” with Thomas Friedman, (or some other MSM-type).”

Last year , the MSM faintly mentioned that Barry went to Camp David for another week of R&R ,
immediately after returning
from the Martha’s Vineyard vacation.
I don’t think Barry will be playing golf with Nicholas Kristof
of the NYT anytime, soon.
Kristof slammed Barry on his failure to diplomatically deal with Sudan as he promised to do in the campaign .
“ Obama’s Failure in Sudan “
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/29/opinion/29kristof.html?ref=opinion
And believe it or not-praised George Bush , twice ,
for his leadership on Sudan .

After Nov. 2012 the Obama’s will have a lot of free time on their hands.

There’s that bra strap again! It’s hard for me to believe this slob took classy Laura Bush’s place as FLOTUS!

[Momto2]

That having been said, I think the criticism of her style of dress b/c the wind lifted up her skirt is not appropriate, meanspirited, and makes our side look bad.

I was not criticizing the wind blowing up her skirt - I was merely commenting on your comment that she was wearing leggings under her skirt.

I will, however, strongly agree with those who criticize her for those tacky bra straps hanging out of her shirt. Good grief - she is the first lady - she knows she will be photographed as she travels from vacation to vacation!

Everyone is entitled to one or two fashion faux pas but she is one continuous stream of tacky fabrics, strange belts, green toenails and bra straps!! I see it as an "in your face" intentional trashing of previous first lady decorum and standards. By her flaunting disregard for traditional American "first lady behavior", she presents a visual picture of her husband's treatment of our entire country.

Talk about being vain, or vanity, as if those Hollywood fashion freaks think that the world can't survive without them.

" If you only knew what Michelle and I really think of you and what we have planned for you white no good crackers you would not be smiling now "

Ever notice, however, she is always with Daddy, and Sasha always clinging to Mommy?

Yes. And there seems to be zero connection between Mom and Dad.

[Borax Queen]

I am speechless. Well, ok, not really... that is so low-class and gross, I can’t take it.

[maggief]

“I am speechless.”

Yeah, but look at those deltoids! ;)

“Whatever happened to all her assistants?:

On vacations?
