The new American Idol

Over at BlueOregon, where they hate black people, (I keep saying it so it must be true) they have gone from political commentary to gushing about what the Obama's are wearing now.

This morning when I was listening to Weekend Edition on NPR (yes, I'm a Bobo in Paradise) a story came on about Michelle Obama. Of course I immediately stopped in my tracks to listen because the First Lady is my idol.

I think Mrs. Obama's outfits are almost always perfect and I love that she mixes designer pieces with items from J. Crew and White House Black Market. Others - specifically designer Oscar de la Renta - have problems with her choices.

An entire post about various names who I can only assume are fashion designers who make $540 sneakers. They can say what they want about the Republican party but clearly the Democrats have become like teenage girls at a Backstreet Boys concert. It's kind of funny.

In fairness, Chris Wallace once spent a six-minute segment quizzing Condoleezza Rice on her favorite Cream songs.

Over her at Miglavia where they hate ALL people that aren't white, idiots like Daniel spend forgot that Repubicants were so gaga, and still are, over Piggy Palin that all the hot air got sucked out of the party leaving it speechless, hopeless and in the gutter.

Anon 1132: If the Republicans are hopeless and in the gutter, you ought to slither on over and introduce yourself.

Scottiebill said...

Why? Because it takes someone hopeless and in the gutter to know who is down there with them.

Yes Daniel, the "Cult of Personality" and its related baggage (such as discussions about fashion) are an interesting and somewhat twisted sociological phenomonon within our politics.

What I wonder, however, is how come you never noticed this before, and just now chose to comment on it when the party you don't prefer came into power. I mean, were you in a cave somewhere when Sarah Palin's (expensive) fashion sense was a favorite topic of discussion in certain GOP circles?

Geesh, Daniel. If you wanna be petty (and apparently you do), at least try to be balanced with your pettiness.

Since Daniel thinks it's fair and intellectually honest to characterize Democrats as shallow fools because a few over at Blue Oregon are nattering away about Michelle Obama's wardrobe, let us flash back to Sept. 1, 2008 at 12:54 p.m. when Daniel, having taken a long weekend to carefully consider the policy positions and political program of Sarah Palin, summed up his "thinking" by posting a video of Palin struttin' her stuff at a firing range, accompanied by the thoughtful observation, "She shoots AR's ...nuff said."

Nuff said, indeed.

With critical thinking skills absent, Libs will worship anyone who is not Bush. Case in point I overheard a fellow employee the other day GUSHING over the Messiah's performance at the Correspondants Dinner. He was quite delighted with the hate fest of Wanda Sykes. In his mind Obama is a great president cause he speaks well. His opinion never includes the Socialist direction the Obama is leading us, it all comes down to he's not Bush. Because as we all know world history began in 2000, and every thing bad in the world was Bush's fault.
