These Obama people are out of touch with ordinary America. This isn't a beauty pageant or a game. it is for the Obamas. Michelle Obama wants to be a fashion queen, and its sick how you and other people believe the hype. She doesn't really DO anything expect waste money on trips to the farmer's market, so we can criticize how she lives and spends our money. She represents this country. It doesn't look good. Wasting money on dresses made in India, out of touch, thigh high boots from France when people are losing jobs, wasting millions so she can buy vegetables at a farmer's market when people are starving and losing their homes, two planes to Denmark. The lady is out of touch and arrogant. Too bad that people like you think she's great. Guess you have to say stupid things like that if your in DC.

I would do anything. To me, this is the biggest honor they could put on me, especially for the country I was born in, and the country that took me in.”</em> comment I was attempting to emphasize. I have not found any information on who paid for the dress, it being donated etc, but I do know that clothing for the president and first lady are not covered by taxpayers, <em>though the state dinner assuredly was</em>. Also, they are given staff expenses, I've read MO's costs taxpayers ~1.75 million and Laura Bush's was somewhere between ~1-1.25 million. I think either is positively obscene, and this and the state dinners also need some serious legal codification. back to the clothes: clothes are either donated, loaned, or paid for by the first couple. Nancy Reagan for example took over 3 million in such presents and loans. I am assuming Khan responded this way because it was a politic (non)answer. It would be very stupid of him to embarrass a patron. actually, it was the “Wouldn’t you? I would do anything.

I believe many of Michelle Obamas statements have been both irrational and aggressive. Why are you so intent on reading racism into other's words? Based on this definition, Michelle Obama IS a beast. Any underlying racism is in your imagination. The Encarta World Dictionary describes “beast” as the irrational or aggressive part of somebody’s personality.

I don't like it but I also don't like her but I don't need to attack her that way.. NOW if you could pass it on to the obots that did this to Hillary and Sarah along with the media we would all be happy..
