the Obamas are not spending one dime of their own money to make the Mrs. look “good.””
IMO, there are not enough dimes in existance to make Ms Nobama look good.
I figured out why the media is so angry about the $150,000 in wardrobe money. That’s $150,000 that won’t be spent on the media for ads. Basically, Palin took money away from them that they think they deserve.
If you read back through my replies on this thread, you’ll see that I have no problem with it. But I doubt I’ve spent half that amount on cloths in my entire life. LOL Again, my point was not to give the media retards more crap to fling around. Time is running out. Its 12 days and counting. That’s it!
Btw, my significant other says she agrees with me. ;^)
I recall Algore paying Naomi Wolfe 5k per week to pick out his ties......
Maybe you “would have been thrilled if she got her clothes from Wal-Mart,” but most observers would not have. Women have to look the part much more than do men, especially women who are on television. Even with men it is important. That’s why Obama wears $2000 suits. But with women it is much more important. Governor Palin not only has to dress very well, but she has to be careful not to over do it. That is hard, and it is expensive.
(You could have convinced me that she got them on super sale at an Arkansas truck stop.)

Palin is a real lady and I don’t think a lot of those political insiders know what that is or what it looks like. She’s classy all around and can “wear it well.” However, I never liked when people mocked Hillary for the size of her rear end or her pantsuits, etc. Who cares?
yep! the designer was interviewed about them yesterday along with her comment that Palin should not be paying for anything, that designers donate all this stuff and went on to say how she had donated all the “designer” pantsuits that Hillary wore.
Oh baloney. Her suits were very nice. Just because you don’t like her, try to be serious.
I don’t like Hillary Clinton’s politics at all. However, Michael Medved went to college with her and said she was sweet and nice, unlike John Kerry, who he said was a real arrogant, unkind person.
Hillary’s clothes were nice once she started running for the senate and her hair looks nice too. Not every woman has a slim and perfect figure and no woman should have to apologize for that either. And as for the cost of any of these people’s clothes, if they pay for it, that’s their business.
It’s not an issue to me one way or the other. It’s just something else for the dems to find fault with, that’s all. You know - two Americas.
Bambi pays at least $4000 per suit. Not $1500.
“If the clothes were necessary, they needed to be bought.”
Well said.
You remind of something that happened years ago, my father-in-law had died and my sis-in-law got really annoyed that her mom and I had gone shopping to get my young daughter and me something to wear to the funeral. But you know what? We didn’t have anything to wear, so we did as you just said. And that’s what we told her too.
The larger point is, of course, that this is all BS, the pregnant daughter, joe the plumber’s lies, smearing cindy mccain, it’s all just small potatoes, but that’s the best they can run with as they try and shove the big O down the throats of the American people.
The media has really disgraced themselves in the past six months. I even thought they were unfair to Hillary! But with Sarah Palin they went right off the deep end.
As much as I fear Obammie the Commie for the damage he and his dem cohorts will do to America, I most want him to lose as a slap in the face to the MSM.
No. Not clothes.
She buys her diapers at WalMart though. (Stopped the bus, went inside, bought diapers, returned to the bus.)
And, while I thought they were not at all flattering, and made a sort of masculine uber-statement...
I yield to your fashion judgment.
I have heard Michael Medved's descriptions of Hillary, as you aptly describe.
I have also, however, read accounts of her by (IIRC) Buzz Patterson, Gary Aldrich, Barbara Olson and others that frankly scare me.
I suspect that a difference between Hillary and Obama is that Hillary appears to be her own human, while Obama likely has handlers (Ayers and company?).

If Hillary had a really nice figure, her pant suits would look nice. The slimmer and taller you are, the better clothing hangs; otherwise the runway models wouldn’t all look like colts. Also, I have issues with people who complain about pant suits. Not all women can wear skirts or suit skirts; some women have bad legs - varicose veins, etc. and pants are a nice alternative. Unless we expect our gals to start sporting the Mormon prairie look that we saw in that compound that was most recently in the news.
Obviously, I don’t know Hillary Clinton any more than I know Barack Obama, but I think SHE has a conscience. I think you put it well.
