I am appointing myself color commentator for the thread. And I swear I will post anything that entertains me from both sides. But since today is wardrobe day, I thought this was hilarious from FoX and Friends.

They were doing the spin for the Rep on the 150K wardrobe, first blaming the preoccupation of people with what a woman wears, and what color are her shoes, and what a terrible double standard it is. Then they tried the, "hey! Politics is like the entertainment business, you expect freebies!! You HAVE to look good! We all get free clothes!"

They should have stopped while they were ahead, or at least only looking slightly silly, but THEN they went on to "well, we'd like to know just how much Obama's custom made suits cost! So there!"(Actually I read today that he doesn't spend over 1500 a suit, which isn't that bad)

And then Steve Doocy blows all their hard work with, "People are just interested in clothes! After some event, people were calling up wanting to know about the dress Michelle Obama was wearing, and it was very economical- like 168.00. And it was flying off the shelves."

really!

168.00.

Gee.
