Interesting fact: Obama spent $140,000.00 on the Styrofoam construction known as Barackopolis that was used for a single evening.
Sarah Palin's wardrobe cost $150,000.00 worn for two months of campaigning. Michelle Obama's wardrobe costs $0 because she makes it out of Grandma Madeyn's slip covers.
Compare and contrast. Maybe this is what Obama had in mind with that spread the wealth around business. Maybe Michelle told him to say that. Maybe that is the real purpose of the "emergency" trip to Hawaii - she told BO to go get the drapes.
Name those feet.
They've already claimed the right to share your supper, maybe they'll go after the shoes next. Although, really, if she wants Sarah's shoes, she'll have to cobble two of them together for each foot.
Some big contributor must have given Michell that dress to wear. She doesn't usually look so awful.

Michelle has an interesting shape; hips and butt are broad. They dress her to made the best of it but every now and then you see a side-back shot and it's -- well, I won't say.

Michelle's frock serves to effectively camouflage any gravy or other food stains which might occur while scarfing down all those suppers.

Maybe she is trying out for the part of "Maria" in the Sound of Music remake.
