Michelle Obama Is Not Amused While Meeting New King of Saudi Arabia: Photos
US Weekly - Yahoo ^ | 1/28 | US Weekly via Yahoo

Talk about a fierce frown from FLOTUS! Michelle Obama's disapproving expression while meeting the new leader of Saudi Arabia on Tuesday, Jan. 27, said it all -- and it's gone viral.

The First Lady, 51, was snapped alongside her husband Barack Obama in Riyadh, paying respects to King Salman bin Abdulaziz, the successor of the late King Abdullah, during what was a quick stop in the country for the funeral. As King Salman shook hands with the President, the First Lady was photographed frowning at the royal.

At times, she looked rather uncomfortable and annoyed, even, as she and her husband met with Saudi officials.

Maybe it's because she's a b^tch? When has she ever done anything proper according to protocol? Why should we expect her to be classy?

Compare Michelle’s inappropriate attire treatment by the press to Dick Cheney at Auschwitz when he wore an overcoat. The MSM was apoplectic.

She's gotten some compliments around here for not bending down before the rigid dress code of Saudi Arabia. However, I focus on a different thing. She is the wife of a world leader, visiting a nation for the funeral of its dead king. And she chooses this moment to stick a thumb in the eye of Saudi Arabia.

It's just low class. She's just an angry b*tch.

In all fairness to Her Highness, that’s just what she looks like.

Precisely. Or the way Laura Bush would have dressed for a funeral of state.

Maybe she’s grumpy because she hasn’t been laid in years. I can think of two very obvious reasons why that might be true.

She should not have gone. It was unnecessary for her to be there .

“Hey moochie. Your chip is showing.” And I thought those were shoulder pads. Turns out they’re chips instead.

For the occasion, the First Lady was dressed in a loose sapphire top, black pants, and a long printed coat. While her garb was conservative, FLOTUS received some criticism from onlookers and Twitter users for her choice of clothing -- or lack thereof. Saudi Arabia imposes a strict dress code upon women, requesting that they have their faces and heads covered in public at all times. Women in Saudi Arabia are also not allowed to drive, and must always have a male accompany them in public.

In what many have speculated as a political move from her part, FLOTUS stepped off Air Force One without a veil over her head on Tuesday, which incited outrage on Twitter. According to the Washington Post, more than 1,000 tweets were sent out on Tuesday under a hashtag, which when roughly translated, is "#Michelle_Obama_unveiled."

I do not like the Obamas one bit, but on this subject, Mrs. Obama's critics can go fornicate themselves.

The only times she is amused is when she is eating lobster while on vacation in posh surroundings.
Or when she is destroying kids lunches.

I disagree. In looking into this story I’m very happy she refused to wear a veil. The Pants Suit used to love to swaddle herself in veils whenever she pocketed a big check from some Saudi creep.

Now, perhaps she could have conducted herself a little more circumspectly but I loathe and hate the Saudis and they deserve NOTHING.

Boy, I never thought I’d give a thumbs up to this chick. I’m also impressed she looks kind of casual in her clothes - like she was going to the mall.
