First off, would anyone expect someone running for second highest office of the land to NOT look the best they can? My ONLY problem with Palin and the $150,000 clothing spree is that she puts herself out as the average, every-day hockey mom/working mom while calling everyone else an elitist, out of touch with the common everyday working folk. The big problem here is the hypocricy, not the $150,000 wardrobe. As far as Michele Obama is concerned, if it's her money, what's the problem? Cindy McCain wears earrings that cost more than Palin's or Michelle Obama's wardrobe, but it's her money, so what. Hear this: the problem here is the hypocricy of Palin, at least that's how I see it. Of course, I didn't contribute to the GOP so I don't have anger towards the fact that Palin was given $150,000 of the GOP money to spruce herself up. I'm sure there are a lot of Joe Six Pack types that did contribute towards the GOP that are probably a little perturbed right now.
Well put.

Michelle Obama's clothes are UGLY...........
Who would want to know where she got them?
Yeah, right. But, I have to admit that the only thing disgusting/ugly about Palin's clothes is the cost.

After Michelle Obama mentioned on "The View" on Wednesday that she bought her B&W sundress at a store called White House/Black Market, women started pouring into the retail chain's stores, clamoring for the $148 dress designed by Donna Ricco.
"Women literally were snatching (that dress) up," Jessica Wells, a spokeswoman for the White House/Black Market, which has 322 stores across the country, told the Wall Street Journal.

I loved that black and white dress. I'd buy one myself except I don't have any occasion to wear something like that. Plus it's a dress for a younger gal, not an old lady like me. But it was stunning on Michelle.

Michelle Obama wears Designer clothes specially made for her!
Her little attempts to pretend to buy from Target are a joke and insulting to people who do actually shop there all the time and not just for show!

If true, big whoopie!! The point is, she pays for her own clothes, the Democratic party does not pay for the Obama family's clothes.
The GOP paid for the Palin family's clothes with campaign donations! Little miss, 'I'm just plain folk', is wearing $2000. shoes and $3000. jackets. Joe the Plumber makes a third of what the GOP spent on her wardrobe.
"You know when you buy your first house? It's this sense of being rooted," Pinto said of her store, where prices range from $250 for silk blouses to $5,000 for a hand-embellished gown.

Chicago Fashion Designer Keeps Michelle Obama in Style

Seriously people, please stop it with the contrived reverse arguments that are illogical.
First of all get your facts straight, Palin didn't buy the clothes!!!! They were purchased for her, secondly the clothes will be going to charity or auctioned off after the election is over.
If the Democratic Party purchased Michelle Nobama some clothes costing just as much don't even think for a second she wouldn't wear them either. Because you know she would, so get off Palin's back already.

1. I'll believe that when it happens. But, I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you.
2. Michelle Obama, a VP of a major University in Chicago, has dressed with class and style for years in clothes she paid for herself.
