Michelle Obama demonstrated a fresh skill to the American people last week when she completed an impressive 142 swivels of a hula hoop on the South Lawn of the White House at a "healthy kids fair" to promote fitness and nutrition for children. She hitched up her studded belt over a blue cardigan, held out arms hung heavy with bangles and skilfully sashayed hips clad in figure-hugging black capri trousers.

Mrs Obama was again filling the role she gave herself during her husband's presidential bid of the nation's "Mom-in-chief". For her legions of fashion devotees, it was also further evidence of the style she has brought to events ranging from glitzy dinners to physical work-outs.

Almost a year after Barack Obama won that historic race, there have been numerous books about the election, the first African-American incumbents at the White House and a new era of American politics.

Now the First Lady is now the subject of a series of glossy books celebrating a closet that has made the transition from the campaign trail to Washington. Published this week by Hachette, Mrs O: The Face of Fashion Democracy is a tribute to the mix of designer brand with high street outfits that is earning her glowing acolades.

Hmmm, they didn't say this about Laura Bush

[Dallas59]

Ugh...

[freedumb2003]

Everything she wears looks like:

[Toespi]

Which puts Imelda Marcos and Michelle Obama in the same league.

[True Republican Patriot]

Proof that the Media is in bed with the OBOZOS!

Michelle qualifies only for the Mrs. GUNG-GA-DUNG AWARD
for FASHION! A Bull Dog looks Cuter in a Spike Collar than Michelle with her Black Leather, Steel Studded BOOB BELTS!

YUK!!

[trisham]

Amazing!

[trisham]

Incredible!

[Stentor]

Chic’s face looks intent on screwing itself into a block of wood.

[IMissPresidentReagan]

What’s next? I’m surprised they didn’t invent an award to give her for hula hooping.

[Niuhuru]

“Michelle Obama demonstrated a fresh skill to the American people last week when she completed an impressive 142 swivels of a hula hoop”

Yeah, that’ll look good on the resume.

[trisham]

For a second, I thought this was Jackie!

[EGPWS]

Ugh...

YUK!!

Amazing!

Incredible!

That about sum's it up with this martian style of apparel that is touted.

[Shery]

She was just as happy wearing $150 off-the-rack items....? So would I, if I could afford $150 items.

[top 2 toe red]

Oh...you must have missed it, O'Reilly gave her the title of 'Patriot' for her hula hooping.

He sucks up to them constantly, but this was beyond the pale!

[TheConservativeParty]

If she has a “growing band of fashion devotees”
are they “the belt brigade”?

[Thinkin]

Now I know I gotta have my eyes checked.....

I can’t see what these other people see......
What fashion?? Argyle..and belts under boobs...

Ouch !!

Great, another fawning article telling us that our eyes are wrong.

Michelle Obama almost always looks like she just went shopping at Ross Dress For Less. Ugly patterns, too-small 'trendy' clothes, mall style.

And as far as I'm concerned she shows way too much skin for a First Lady. Arms, back, shoulders naked, dresses too short....she is TACKY with no class.

Michelle Obama, First Lady of Fascism - there, fixed it.

[tumblindice]

We’ve got to get the Media some of those special sunglasses!

Woman has an ass the size of a cow.
She looks like an angry bitch.

[The Comedian]

“Michelle Obama demonstrated a fresh skill to the American people last week when she completed an impressive 142 swivels of a hula hoop”

Yeah, that’ll look good on the resume.

It's closer to relevant experience and exceptional achievement than anything else you'll find on any White House resume, if they haven't sealed 'em all, that is.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

[mickie]

Just canceled my subscripion to Womans Day. Every month they print another glowing article about the amazing Mrs O.
Whom I find totally unattractive and I could go on but why bother!

[Zeppo]

Don’t you just love the subtlety of British humor?

[bunkerhill7]

They gave the Nobel appease prize to the wrong Obama

[Steelfish]

Well done!

[JoeMac]

Who wrote this cr@p? Michelle Obama is a fashion disaster. This ugly-A$$ woman wears table-cloths and shower-curtains for dresses.

[JoeMac]

Tell it man! B!tch got a booty big as a caboose on a mile-long freight train.

[ronniesgal]

and Mrs. Kennedy Onassis rolls in her grave every time they make the comparison.
I’ve got no particular love for Jackie O, but she was an elegant woman.
The First Yeti, however... no.

[Lizavetta]

[IMissPresidentReagan]

Are you serious?!?!? I stopped watching FoxNews the day they hired Huckabee. How does hula hooping make her a “Patriot”?

[6323cd]

Oops! Already posted!

[Palladin]

[top 2 toe red]

O'Reilly showed her hula hooping, then said something like, [I paraphrase] "Because she shows such great style with her hula hooping and because it is such a good exercise for keeping the middle area in shape-----Michelle Obama is a Patriot!"

Un-freaken-believable, isn't it?!?!

[exDemMom]

Laura Bush is beautiful.

I wouldn’t say that I have much of a fashion sense, but it only takes one Michelle Obama to make me look like a fashion genious. That woman does NOT know how to dress.

[JoeMac]

“Laura Bush is beautiful’’ She certainly is and had more brains, graciousness,charm and poise than this Amazon broad. I’ve her her refered as a ‘’fashionista’’ Just what the heck is a ‘’fashionista’’, some kind of Marxist super-model? Michelle Obama is a fashion nightmare.
