You know whats unseemly? Obama caught bin Laden in his first term while Bush went steady and got to first base with Saudi royalty.
That actually makes sense in a retail consumption-based economy. But they reported the same thing about another black lady who was close to a president, so I guess this fair game.
The article doesn't break down the split between the two women. I'd wager the queen of Qatar probably spent 99% of that 50k... This is a really stupid thread.
"Still, the likes of Brewer, Wilson, and Lamborn should be taken to task for their behavior and outright racism. Even though the President has helmed the assassination of Osama bin Laden, forced insurance companies to cover pre-existing conditions, coordinated the rescue of two Navy Seal hostages, reformed student loans, and rehabilitated the American auto industry, I would argue that President Obama is indeed one of the most disrespected — if not the most disrespected– president of this country." Continued GOP Disrespect Of Obama Is Unacceptable A very insightful article
50K on clothes while most Americans don't make that in a year. Obama is a vastly better choice than Romney, but he needs to be more attentive to how these things look.
Pardon me, but I see nothing in basso's post that mentions $50k or specifies any of the purchases. Furthermore, the text he quoted is not linked. This is either a grossly misleading thread title or a very poor post.
You know what makes me puke in my mouth? The was these neocon nut jobs create fake news to try to make the first lady look bad: http://www.politico.com/politico44/2012/01/michelle-obama-reportedly-spent-on-lingerie-112779.html Apparent Michelle Obama never went to the store....it is a completely fabricated story.
List of assets owned by News International The Sun Looks like Ruppy M is taking his tricks to another country. The new standard of objective, factual reporting! and this time, they didn't even have to hack a dead girl's voicemail. Someone needs to bring up this thread EVERY f**king time basso mentions the "biased left-wing" media, sheeple, etc. First, it's not even a relevant or important story. Then it turns out to be fake? bwahahha
not surprising SOP for Ruppy and the right. Place a story in his British holdings and then have it picked up in the American press so as to hide the bias.
a married woman buying sexy lingerie? sounds like our president has a real marriage. good on him and her.
I can't figure it out either, I mean, the headlines read "these are the worst of times." I do believe it's true. Sometimes when reading basso posts, I feel so helpless, like a boat against the tide. It makes me wish the summer wind could bring back Paradise.
You're making this claim based on a white house asserttion? What makes you think they're amy more reliable than the news media? Recall, these are the folks who claimed Eric Steadman Holder knew nothing of F&F.
Agreed. He and his wife should set the tone in down economic times that you do not spend your money at keep it flowing in the economy. You hoard your money and shake your head as businesses put the "going out of business sale" sign in the window. Shame on him for not being a better role model. Now, in all seriousness. I commend the first lady for buying nice lingerie. Whether I want to see her in it or not is irrelevant. I assume her husband does so it's cool that despite their stage in life she is still working to keep it good.
