Trailer Trash Royalty

Here's the "Man Of The People", and his family.

They've got that fancy plane to jet around in and if they ain't traveling to far they got that whirlybird to like jump them up to New Yawk for a night out. And hell, it's free!

The fashion mags were telling us for the longest time about how stylish Michelle dressed "on a budget" using common designers like J.Crew and The Gap, but now that they're in, they've started to give up the pretense of being just like us.

White House denies manufacturer's boast that First Lady carried their $5,950 bag

Earlier this week (while strolling the wooded landscape outside of Moscow), she carried a sexy black clutch, which Italian luxury house VBH boasts is their shiny black alligator manila bag – with a retail sticker price of $5,950.




$6000 for clutch!!! First, it's a clutch, not even a real purse. This is something that can hold a few non-bulky items (like Michelle needs to have a few bucks on hand to tip the doorman or something). You could survive a nuclear strike with the crap my wife could cram into a normal medium sized purse. I'd be willing to bet there isn't even anything in it. Second, what the hell does she need it for? She doesn't have a personal Aide or two that could carry what she requires?

Of course, the explanation given by the White House makes it all better.

The White House says she was carrying the $875 VBH patent leather clutch.


Oh, O.K.! She only spent $900 on something she doesn't really need outside of an accessory.

Back in April she wore a pair of $540 Lanvin sneakers at a Washington food bank.


What is it that someone can design into a pair of sneakers that makes them worth $100, let alone $550? I bet that these "Lanvin" sneakers were made by workers that got a major share of the profit assembling them.

Now that it's long after the election and Obama has won, it's cool for Michelle to spend $5000 for a clutch handbag and $550 on a pair of sneakers...She's the height of fashion!

Unemployment is at 9.5% and expected to climb, taxes are going up on everything, States are bankrupt or right on the edge, but hey, the Obama's care about the people.

Let's not forget how the left treats what they consider unwarranted expenditures on clothing.

Republicans spent $150,000 on Sarah Palin's clothes

I wanna puke.
