"That damn belt on Madame Obama! It makes her look like a big sack of flour tied in the middle!"

[Palladin]

Stop it! You’re killing me.

[Tarheel]

My DIL is 5'10” and d/n seem to have difficulty w/ pantyhose. W/N be surprised if MO, the camel toe, is lazy.

[Tarheel]

Another good grooming rule broken by MO—open toe shoes/sandals you better have a decent pedicure!

How do you say “TOTUS” in French?

Imagine Ronald Reagan using a prompter at his great “These are the Boys of Pointe du Hoque” speech.

How do you say “TOTUS” in French?

With a funny accent. ;0)

I was going to suggest “lower-middle-class housewife dressed up for a day with the kids at Six Flags,” but on reflection you’ve nailed it.

WHAT?!!!
A silver double belted buckled belt?!!
Does she need THAT MUCH protection? (Is the COLB hidden in there? ) Is she scared of losing the belt?

Why in the world does she wear an unmatching belt over a summer coat?
What is her psychological hang up with these belts? was she denied one in her childhood? Was she unable to wear one before? Where's Freud when we need him? LOL

All she needs now is suspenders - Rainbow ones - and her outfit would be perfect.

Again, I think Carla wore her black belt out of politeness.

ROFL, Notice how EVERYONE is focusing on Moo's belt... or is there some other distraction? hmmmm

[afraidfortherepublic]

Well, luckily for her, those beautiful daughters resemble their father. Neither of them looks like she’s inherited her mother’s scowl.

[afraidfortherepublic]

Did those two get on the phone and discuss the “uniform” of the day? White dress and dark belt?

[StarFan]

So how did she get there, she wasn't in Egypt or Germany was she?

Same question I asked when I learned she was there. Had she been in Egypt or Germany she would surely have made her presence known.

I am literally sick from anxiety

I've been having the same symptoms, and another friend on Facebook was reporting the same thing. I can usually handle it during the day but at night I just feel sick to my stomach... so helpless to stop this juggernaut.

Yet, nothing of this is inevitable... the only thing that makes it seem inevitable is the non-stop barrage of propaganda from the govt and the state-run media.

[ichabod1]

Carla is SOoOo good looking. I didn’t think she was so hot when they married, but every pic I’ve been seeing of her lately, she just looks fine. The hottest first lady ever. OTOH, she’s been up agains the horse from Chicago, so that might make her look better by comparison.

[ichabod1]

Is it my imagination, or are neither of those “ladies” wearing hosiery?

[Deb]

Oh, my Lord! Attack of the Boob Belt! Poor Carla Sarkozy had to spend the day stifling her laughter.

[Deb]

just saw your #51 pic. While he destroys the country, she's busy destroying fashion for a generation.

I mean... what a great looking outfit. Soggy armpits are the new black!

[Albion Wilde]

Is that old guy in the wheelchair dead?

He may wish he were instead of living to see this a$$clown speaking on hallowed ground.

[Albion Wilde]

Oh, my Lord! Attack of the Boob Belt! Poor Carla Sarkozy had to spend the day stifling her laughter.

Or thanking God for sending Michelle Obama to walk beside her and make her look so very much better by comparison.

It reminds me of a TV show I once saw in which AnnMargaret dared to sing Tina Turner's most famous signature song, "Proud Mary", right beside Tina Turner. When A-M's ghastly performance was over, Tina stepped to one side and applauded AnnMargaret graciously. It was one of the most generous acts one woman has ever done for another. Same with Carla -- she is keeping a straight face.
