And who are you. Post a pic of you and let see your sense of style? If you dare.

I am not a democrat so I didn't vote for Obama but I find it ridiculous that we are trashing his family just because we don't like somebody's politics.

Well for the average family with a $400K salary, free housing, and millions in book residuals, that's not excessive.

He said it was cheap for a pair of designer shoes. We are not talking NineWest shoes either. If you know what I mean. Probably not.
I think paying 50 bucks for a pair of shoes is too much. Many people would think that is cheap. So it is all relative.

Obama has lectured Americans about how they can not expect to live their lives as indulgently as they have in the past. He has lectured businesses about their travel and pay. Yet Obama and his wife live like kings and queens.

Renting a $9 million dollar estate at $4000 a night during their vacation. Lavish living...in a recession..nah..
It really is EXHAUSTING having to respond to all of these ridiculous threads to i have to go back to not checking this forum...but meanwhile...considering Obama has only been in office for a year, isn't it POSSIBLE that she didn't just buy these shoes? or that they were donated, or that she found them on sale, or ebay?????? I mean really....and even if she didn't WHY DO YOU CARE?

But, they don't look like they're worth it. Seriously, forget about who is wearing them for a minute and just look at what you're paying for. It looks like half a shoe to me.

I don't think they sell fashion by the square inch.

Many on the right call the liberals jealous when they complain about Sarah Palin. Maybe that's the answer! Jealousy!

Average working people can have 80,000 or more in savings. She could most likely afford these shoes long before Obama became president. It is not that much money if you have it.
Just because you are not a "star" doesn't mean you have to be broke, obviously.

Guess they really do not care about those people on Main Street like they told us they did.

Record foreclosures in America, record homeless and hungry people and they are out spending money like crazy people.

And to think Obama is now pitching for donations of food to food banks on TV. Can you add up how many people can eat on 635.00 she paid for these shoes?
