I agree with her not wearing head covering, but I don’t agree with her choice of outfit. I think she should have worn a black outfit, with a subdued or no pattern. It was supposed to be a solemn occasion. I read translations of several comments left on the articles about this and only a few mentioned her not having head covering. All of them that I read said her clothes were not appropriate, some stated her outfit would have been fine if it had been all black. There are pictures of Laura Bush in a solid black pantsuit in S.A. and I remember no criticism- and she wore no head covering.

The looney left is pushing the idea that she was making a statement in support of women, I don’t agree with that even if true. There is a time and place for everything and if she just had to make a statement she should not have gone with Obama on this visit to pay respect of a leader’s death.

You make an excellent point regarding the appropriateness of the colors she chose to wear. For a funeral, something a good bit less colorful would have been much better.

I was just happy to see her refusing to wear some lame head covering in order to appease the muslim lunatics. By no means did I intend to imply that I might be supporting her in some leftist “statement in support of women”. I would hope that ANY American woman would act as she did regarding head coverings, veils, etc.

As for her angry expression? It appears that is her normal look.

Not that I care but what is the appropriate color for mourning in Saudi Land? In India, it’s pink, I’ve heard. (Pink is their navy blue!)
