The winding journey of lies and smears (Michelle NYT Interview)

New York Times, March 20:

Reporters are not the only ones with a particularly keen interest in what Michelle Obama wears. Her husband, Mrs. Obama says, notices everything. In fact, she has learned not to wear a certain gray metallic belt when the president is around. “Barack calls it my ‘Star Trek’ belt,” the first lady said in an interview this week. “He doesn’t understand fashion.”

The interview, which started out on the subject of the new White House vegetable garden, ended up ranging over a variety of household topics, which Mrs. Obama addressed with substantial fun-poking at her husband, her mother and herself.

On the president and her wardrobe: “He’s always asking: ‘Is that new? I haven’t seen that before.’ It’s like, Why don’t you mind your own business? Solve world hunger. Get out of my closet.”

She teasingly imitated him: “You didn’t need any more shoes. The shoes you had on yesterday were fine. Why can’t you just wear that for the rest of the presidency?”

UK Telegraph (Right Wing Rag), March 21:

President Barack Obama is obsessed with his wife's clothes but knows nothing about fashion, the First Lady, Michelle Obama has revealed.....Mrs Obama says that she orders the president to stop nosing around her wardrobe, puts up with him mocking her collection of shoes and has to wear one trendy belt when he is not around because he has no sense of style.

Freeperland Tonight:

"Last night on another thread about TOTUS being “ tired ,” I posted some excerpts from UK media interviews with the TOTUS’s.
This guys spends more time wasting time than any president in history.
Barry likes to paw through Michelle’s clothes closet.
He is “ obsessed with her clothes.”
Insert gay and cross dressing jokes here..."


And on and on it will go, thanks to the fine work of the esteemed UK Telegraph.
