does anyone have anything important to talk about? anyone?
I was wondering the same thing. It amazes me that I'll watch the gloom and doom on the news; go to my mommy and me groups and listen to the latest on who got laid off, who lost their home, car - how so and so's sister had to close her business and then come here and the hot topic that's pressing on everyone's mind is Michelle Obama getting freebies. I guess all the people who post here aren't affected by the nations economic situation - or maybe they're just tired of talking about it - so they focus on other items.
Oh is there some reason that one poster spelled Michelle "Meechelle"? Is that like some inside joke I missed?
And not too much of a stretch to ASSume either, with the way Obama filled his cabinet with tax cheats, the shady way he and Meechelle bought their Chicago home at below market rates, etc, etc.
By the way, talking about about ASSuming, how does Meechelle get her big ASSume in those dresses anyway?
Think clearly! if she were equipped with that stale pancake shaped ... umm thing reffered to as a nice butt imagine
what would she look like?
Yeah.... not a good look, that's why those dingies covet ass implants so much , so that theyu can look like women!

The clothes are free and she still looks trashy. Sad.
Isn't this against the law? The clothes are taxable items.

You can say that about almost everyone who looks like her too.
you can not like a person's style choices but no matter what your view she looks far from trashy. to bring on who are you refering when you say almost everyone that looks like her? she have a bunch of twins running around the country?

For years, the press excoriated Nancy Reagan for borrowing clothes and jewelry from designers. Yet Michelle Obama has been doing the same thing � without any outcry from the media.
Accountants say that the first lady�s practice of borrowing both clothes and jewelry raises major tax and disclosure issues, not to mention ethical questions.
�The transactions are clearly taxable,� says Richard Rampell, a Palm Beach, Fla., accountant whose clients include several of the island�s billionaires. �The designers are indirectly paying Michelle Obama to go and display their wares. And they get a huge economic value for it, just as if they were paying a model to do this. If they are paying her in this indirect way by lending her their clothes, then she is actually performing a service for the designer, and she should have to recognize as income whatever the value is of the clothes that she got.�
Aside from the tax implications, Obama is obligated to report the value of the clothes she has received free of charge on government forms mandated by the Ethics in Government Act.
The only difference is that Michelle does not intend to give them back.
