So not only did Michelle Obama hijack the Oscars, she stuck it (again) to the tax payers as-well. You’ll be happy to know that the cost of Michelle Obama’s hideous Oscar dress designed has an estimated price tag of $8,990.

I have nothing but contempt for Baraq and MooseChelle, but what evidence is there in that blog that the taxpayers paid for it?

Designers typically furnish stuff like this free to celebs for the publicity value.

And the Libtards excoriated Sarah Palin for shopping?

[Trapped Behind Enemy Lines]

You need a lot of material to cover that caboose.

Anyone else remember the “She gets red dresses, we get pink slips” comments about Nancy Reagan?

I thought designers loaned clothes to her sometimes, because of the publicity. If that was actually taxpayer money, I would rather not have paid for it.

I will say, though, she looked a lot nicer than she has on many other occasions.

I think that is probably correct...designers flocked to Jackie and Nancy...they were excellent manikins.

I'm more disgusted with Moochelle decorating her set with US military officers.

Any one of whom are worth 50 Marxist leaning first ladies.

Even if the hypocrite paid for the dress (Most likely loaned), she would of had to do the purchase using her own/joint bank account. If the dress was a gift then Boehner/IRS better start investigating. Ditto if appropriated funds for the White House were used to purchase the thing. The Obamas may be arrogant, but they sure as heck are not stupid.

The ruling elite uses our money to live high on the hog, and in return, has nothing but contempt for us.

[Sacajaweau]

They don’t do freebies and she can’t accept gifts...

[goat granny]

That's a lot money for DUCT TAPE

We should be discussing whether her husband is eligible to be president....not the dress Michelle wore.

Lets leave the wardrobe stuff to gay men. Conservative Americans need to focus on Obama Eligibility

So the blog pimp is most likely incorrect.

As distasteful as it may be to most FReepers, MooseChelle is widely admired in the liberal / feminist / celebrity worship circles and this Indian guy who designed the dress is probably getting orders like crazy.
