Michelle Obama Dons a $6,800 Jacket: Does it Offend You When the First Lady Wears Expensive Clothes?

Michelle Obama wore an exquisite J. Mendel cap sleeve jacket to the London Olympics reception -- and there's no denying it's gorgeous -- but there is some controversy over the price: $6,800. Check out the dud... and the critical reactions in the video below!



It almost seems like the First Lady can't win because she has also been criticized for wearing "cheap" clothing, but that seems to be the status quo for females in the political world. When you see the First Lady (any First Lady) wearing expensive clothes like this, does it seem like she's flaunting her wealth like some claim. Does it offend you? Or does it go with the territory of being married to the President of the United States?

EXAMINER.COM reports:
Move over, Ann Romney. It looks like you’ve been outspent in the wardrobe department by First Lady of the United States Michelle Obama.

    Only because the left made such a huge deal over Ann Romney's clothes and even Sarah Palin's.

    She is filthy rich, and the fithy rich deserve to wear what ever they want. I want to be filthy rich, too. I am working on my doctorate and I am gonna ride that pony. I won't be filthy rich, maybe dusty, or perhaps a wee bit susio, but not filthy.

    Everything this couple does offends me. They have a blatant disregard for taxpayer money so their spending is looked at with suspicion. No one expects her to dress poorly but she seems to love rubbing her extravagances in the face of the public. Besides attempting to make a silk purse out of a sows ear never works, it's like throwing money down a rat hole.

    Just because you don't like the idea of a black first lady, don't mean you have to disrespect her. It is said someday the servant will be the master. Are you sure you want to be on the bad side of slave mentality sir, and the side effects of hateful thinking. Heaven is watching all we do and all we say and is measuring our lifelines; better watch it son you should know right from wrong by now; because you are not impressing "no one" not even yourself, but you still have time to dispose of your negativity and turn it into something positive and wonderful in this world. There are a lot of people waiting for the new you.

    'glowiful' must be new word from the liberal dictionary. Does anyone know what it means?

    So, I guess you don't live in America? Or maybe you're not American? Doesn't matter if you didn't vote for him, he's your president if your an American citizen. Sounds like you despise him - maybe because you won't accept a black man as your president?

    Name-calling. Is that the best you can do? Name-calling does not prove that your opinions are superior to mine, it doesn't make your opinions right and mine wrong. You call me an "idiot" for supporting someone. I guess because you've attacked me with a name, that makes you right? Only if we were kids in a school playground, you might think so, but haven't you outgrown aggression as a means to dominate? How about use logic and reason to debate your viewpoints? You bully with aggression as a means of trying to establish the superiority of your viewpoint, but it is actually a weak and ineffective method of communication. This is true for the other hostile males who responded to me below. I can just imagine the lot of you boys as children ganging up on a little girl in the playground to bully her. Might makes right, huh? Maybe it's time to grow up now. I couldn't even read "FeelHoo's comment below because I have a profanity filter on. Using ugly language doesn't make a person's opinions more 'right' than someone else's ... just makes you appear ugly in spirit.

    Yes I am an American, a patriotic American. I do not recognize this incompetent jackass as a leader, just like I don't recognize liberals as fellow Americans. Y'all shame the country because you see it simply as your own personal sugar tit. You're all parasites, always taking, never giving.

    Do you feel better now after calling me an "idiot"? LOL. You share the maturity of your pal above. You don't "reason" at all. Neither does he. You both resort to personal attack, which shows your lack of using reason. I may not be as old as the two of you, but age and maturity don't always go hand in hand. Personal attack is not an effective debate method. It proves nothing but your anger and hatred.

    OK this is when you show your weakness. If you have to resort to ugly name calling, you haven't grown up.You call me a "parasite" and make assumptions on how I view the country. Personal attack is not an effective form of debate. I didn't attack you, simply questioned if you consider yourself American if you can't accept the leader of this country. If you cannot accept other Americans who are "liberal" as your fellow countrymen, then you don't accept the basic tenets of this country, where people have the FREEDOM to think differently from you and still be your fellow Americans. It's this divisive hatred that brings the country down. This country stands for freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of thought. Only dictatorships in the world demand that every one in a country believe the same way in order to be citizens and fellow countrymen.

    Notice lil Miss Perky has left the building?
    The shame of a nation is that the dull have elected POTUS TWICE & can never justify stupidity. We gave 12 years to the US Army before we saw the writing on the wall. The 16 years of self employment started to collapse in '91. We are forced to escape that madness only to find more! Being offended by anything from the White House is never gonna quit til Christ gits back!

    She blocked me then run like a snotty nose but that's typical liberal behavior. No guts. They don't realize that blocking and continuing attacks on one who does not block is cowardly or maybe they consider cowardice a positive trait. These are the idiots that put this obomination in the power seat for another term. It seems the patients have taken over the insane asylum.
