Proof Positive Jackie Kennedy is Still #1

The very next editor, writer, or pundit who compares Michelle Obama to Jackie Kennedy is going to be sent to Room 101 and fed to rats. This report just in: Michelle Obama's Mirror's Blog: Hair Recovery Act of 2010
Personally, I’m not sure the swept back look is the best way to go with the botoxed forehead and Vulcan brows, but to each her own. We didn’t want to draw too much attention to the new hair since it’s not, well, all it can be yet. So as a diversion, we wore an interesting ensemble of multiple prints and geometrics in black, white and blue that was, well, really more than it should have been. But interesting. In a postmodern way.

Your Say

Does she own a mirror.

If it wasn't for bad taste, she'd have no taste at all.

When you've got nothing else, you have to accentuate the upper arms. I predict that when the bills all have come due for this administration, those emblematic toddler-sized sweaters will be out of style for the rest of human history. God help us.

Sadie, my question is the same. Does she own a mirror and who on her staff tells her she looks great?

Hope I'm not the only one who thinks of the Rolling Stones' classic, Down Home Girl:

Lord I swear, the perfume you wear

Was made out of turnip greens

And everytime I kiss you girl

It tastes like pork and beans

Even though you're wearin' them

Citified high heels

I can tell by your giant step

You been walkin' through the cotton fields

Oh, you're so down home girl

Underneath all the chintz and frill, there is a genuinely vain, vacuous, angry, ugly shrew.

This IS my Room 101.

Rainycityjazz - since you asked the $64,000 question

Who on her staff tells her she looks great?

The answer:

Paid LIARS!

Actually, one stop truth. Even for you. She is not, alas, as attractive as magazine stylists can make her. Here, for example, we see she is well on her way to Elenor Roosevelthood... but without the concern for humanity.

Elenor Roosevelthood - LOL
Nearly as funny as the picture - poor woman's parts is all outta proportion, gots skinny lil arms like barry...

This woman has more servants than Marie Antoinette, and nobody to dress her? She has no one close to tell her the truth. The family problem.

"Does she own a mirror and who on her staff tells her she looks great?"

"Seriously, my First Lady. Your new clothes look FABULOUS! They SHINE!!"

"Are you sure you can see it?"

"Well... but... But Of Course!! They're technicolor!!! Those who can't see it are already stupid and bitter-clingers, anyway..."

The hard truth is that MO is just plain plain. She looks like a low level clerk at the DMV with a limitless budget.
And that's on a good day.

Someone tip her off? Yeah, there's a quick trip to the unemployment line.

The toddler sweater is just the thing for the bat'leth demonstration -- it doesn't get in the way.

I am grateful for the vast disconnect between Michelle's ordinary looks and dismal fashion sense, on the one hand, and the fawning media, on the other hand. It was this quite obvious break in reality that first led my mother to realize that the media is not always (ever?) telling the truth about the Obamas. Policy disputes can be confusing to the uninitiated, but the chasm between real looks and media coverage is pretty clear.
