Hmmm ... the coat is no longer at the Net-A-Porter.com via polyvore.com links???

[Munz]

let us not forget that she had to have a $540.00 pair of sneakers to go to a food bank with!

But the MSM isn’t interested in that, she is just too wonderful

[Fudd Fan]

the majority of the outfits Nancy wore were stylish for her age and build..She was always turned out well. Same for Laura Bush.

Heck, even Hillery dressed better than this clueless oaf, and Hillery has cankles!

Who knew that the Ugly Betty fashion line would become all the rage in the White House?

My Gosh! A $2700 Coat and We still Look like Hell!

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

Nothing new. The 1867 Reconstruction legislature of the State of Louisiana voted itself $250,000 in Christmas hams.

[I'm ALL Right!]

Shall we discuss SARAH PALIN’S wardrobe now? Gee, I wonder if the taxpayers are shelling it out for her new clothes? At least w/Palin, the people donate to the GOP VOLUNTARILY. Just sayin’.

[kristinn]

Hmmm, indeed. The image for the coat is still live, but the listing for the dress is gone, gone, gone. Sold out...or cover up?

[kristinn]

I meant the listing for the coat is gone, gone, gone.

[Notwithstanding]

The more fuss made over her clothes, the more we should remember the elephant in the living room: the woman has gigantic hips and buys weird clothes to draw attention away from those hips. Weird belts, weird colors, weird cuts, weird ensembles are her attempts to hide dem hips. And the often innapropriate choices for the occasions are the sign of insensitivity and disrespect.

Note how it looks on Missuz Zero and on the model?

Seems like she lengthened it to cover dem hips.

Why are there never any white children in these photographs?
Just curious, thats all?

Saw one just like it at the Goodwill store the other day.

[Fudd Fan]

I wouldn’t begrudge the price tag if it only looked GOOD on her. blech

[Munz]

>I despise this family. I hope one day things bounce back to bite them, and they are left hopeless and penniless.<

Remember Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos?
We are talking about the very same situation and types of people.

Got into power the same way, destroyed the country the same way, robbed the national treasury the same way, acted like royalty spending on themselves while people went hungry and without jobs. ETC ETC ETC.

It is amazing how similar the two families are.
they will end the same way as well. What goes around comes around.

[maggief]

It’s been pulled, IMHO.

You may want to upload while the image is still available. It would not surprise me if it also disappears soon.

[RummyChick]

look at the shoes with this outfit

[True Republican Patriot]

Gosh! You are so right! When compared together, one can only note a vague similarity! Michelee’s Version looks like it was fabricated by ‘AHAB, the Tentmaker!” Not only are her hips huge, but she always looks like she is wearing one of those wire frame bustles on her rear from the 1800’s or earlier.... Her butt appears to stick out at least a yard straight back......

Michelle Obama was wearing a "mat lurex Moschino coat with a matching cap sleeve dress from the brand's Pre-Spring 2010 collection

Boy, I really, really miss Laura Bush......

[True Republican Patriot]

I’ll bet the one You saw at the Goodwill Store sure looked a heck of alot better than this one!......:-)I think You could spend a Million on a Outfit for MaBelle and it wouldn’t help!
