When Barrack Obama and Dmitry Medvedev were meeting, Michelle Obama took Medvedev's wife, Svetlana Medvedeva, to a performance at Duke Ellington School of the Arts. Above is a picture of them at that event.I was going to write a post regarding Michelle Obama and her "style" (which the fashionistas are undoubtedly busy fawning over), but I think I'll let the picture speak for itself.
That is hideous. With every fashion house willing to kill to have her seen in their clothes, what excuse can she possibly have for looking like this?
ReplyDeleteWhat I don't get about you White boys is, why do you care so very much about what Michelle Obama does or doesn't do? I mean, what difference does it make? Just the sheer amount of comments from so many blogs and forums and the like, her schooling, her employment, her dating days with Obama himself, this, that, etc, I just don't get it. It's almost as if it's a kind of sordid fascination with the Woman that comes off as kinda creepy or something.
ReplyDeleteWnhat gives?

There are a few more interesting photos of the Russian first lady visiting a cathedral in San Francisco here: http://www.mospat.ru/en/2010/06/24/news20848/
ReplyDeleteObsidian,
ReplyDeleteYou make a good point. I account it as watching a train wreck. You know that it isn't meant for your entertainment, but you can't look away. We were promised bread and circuses and you can't have a circus without a few clowns.
Hale,
ReplyDeleteI just think that for many of you, having a clearly Black looking Woman as First Lady is a real shot accross the bow that so many of you simply cannot take psychologically, hence all the agita from you guys. Get therapy.

@Professor Hale:
ReplyDelete"That is hideous. With every fashion house willing to kill to have her seen in their clothes, what excuse can she possibly have for looking like this?"
The fashion houses and American women in general likely love Michelle Obama because she validates the ridiculous "professional" clothing of modern American women.
She probably dresses like this intentionally. After all, the Obama administration is just one big "Fuck you!" to the last vestiges of the Old America.
@Obsidian:
"What I don't get about you White boys is, why do you care so very much about what Michelle Obama does or doesn't do?"
I care because she is the First Lady of the United States and is often representing the United States to the world. She should dress professionally, an act she appears utterly incapable of doing.
"I just think that for many of you, having a clearly Black looking Woman as First Lady is a real shot accross the bow that so many of you simply cannot take psychologically, hence all the agita from you guys. Get therapy."
The people who need therapy are the self-hating, delusional whites who voted for a man who hates them.
TAS,
ReplyDeleteYou gotta be insane. Michelle Obama dresses the way any other American Woman in our time does. She's not wearing ethnic African dress or anything like that, and even if she did, so what?
Like I said, you guys need therapy.
O.
TAS,
ReplyDeleteConsider this:
The Queen of England didn't have a problem with Michelle Obama.
The First Ladies of Mexico, France, Russia, they didn't have any problems with her either.
But YOU and a goodly number of WHITE GUYS, do.
What's wrong with this picture?
Like I said, get therapy.
O.
PS: On what basis do you say that Obama himself "hates" White people?
Whew...
"You gotta be insane. Michelle Obama dresses the way any other American Woman in our time does."
ReplyDeleteI've been critical of the "professional" dress of American women (see last Thursday's post), but Michelle Obama takes it to an extreme. She shows a complete lack of respect for her position. She's the First Lady of the United States, not America's Bottom Bitch.
"She's not wearing ethnic African dress or anything like that, and even if she did, so what?"
Actually, if she wore ethnic African dress she would probably look better.
"Like I said, you guys need therapy."
Opposing the Obamas means you need therapy?
"The Queen of England didn't have a problem with Michelle Obama.
The First Ladies of Mexico, France, Russia, they didn't have any problems with her either."
How do you know that? Sure, they might have said nothing aloud, but do you really think a Queen or First Lady would publicly rebuke Michelle Obama for her choice in clothing?
You've spent too much time around angry black women who speak their mind constantly. Believe it or not, there are women out there who realize that sometimes holding your tongue is the best thing to do.
"But YOU and a goodly number of WHITE GUYS, do."
Not just white men. Many white women have a problem with her and her choice of clothing (such as the women here: http://newsbird.wordpress.com).
"What's wrong with this picture?"
You tell me.
"Like I said, get therapy."
You've written that three times now. Do you even know what that word means or are you just using it to sound smarter than you really are?
"PS: On what basis do you say that Obama himself "hates" White people?"
His past writings and actions clearly demonstrate it.
Obsidian, you are a black racist. Sorry to be redundant. Nice attempt at girlish shaming tactics "oh you are just soooo creepy".
ReplyDeleteThe thing about you black boys is, you are hypersensitive, and completely unable to apply logic or reason to your own race, but constantly blame shift.
The fact is, M.O. is ugly, hideous, and totally unfeminine. It is fun to make fun of her. The fact she is black has little to do with it.
But you black boys just can't see beyond your dark skin. Its sad really, have you tried therapy?
Obsidian,
ReplyDeleteI just call it like I see it. I don't mind that you hate that I am right. See how well adjusted I am? May I be excused from therapy? That really isn't a "guy" thing.
I was critical of Hillary too, but not her clothes. Sure, she looked like she was getting fashion tips from Ellen Degeneras, but at least she was getting tips from SOMEONE.
Hale,
ReplyDeleteI will grant that Hillary came in for some serious ill treatment from guys on the Right, up to and including Rush Limbaugh, who is certainly NOT a guy with Leading Man looks himself. That said, it is interesting that no one ever commented on how dowdy and Stepford Wife-ish Nancy Reagan was, or how dowdy Laura Bush is. Seems to me if you're gonna rag on First Ladies you'd at least be consistent.

"That said, it is interesting that no one ever commented on how dowdy and Stepford Wife-ish Nancy Reagan was, or how dowdy Laura Bush is."
ReplyDeleteLaura Bush may have looked dowdy, but she at least looked professional and had some respect for her office and the country.
