Can Michelle Obama Buy Me Some Groceries?

We were all very excited when Barack Obama was elected President of the United States. We were pleased to find that the first family seemed to be very relatable and down to earth. The key word here is seemed.

Michelle Obama’s fashion taste has been called out on many occasions. But this surpasses the fact that while her clothes may be very lovely, she does not know how to dress her body. Michelle Obama had the nerve to show up to a volunteer event at a food bank in D.C. to bring attention to hunger issues in $540.00 sneakers! Really, Michelle Obama? Did you really show up to a place where people go because they can hardly afford to buy food in $540.00 sneakers? Could you not have thought of something more event appropriate to wear? And then, when asked about your outfit and footwear, your reps don’t disclose the shoes you’re wearing claiming “they’re shoes” as if they’re Keds and not very expensive designer sneakers.

I remember during the scandal of Sarah Palin spending insane amounts of the Republican Party’s money on clothes, you went to the Letterman Show claiming that your wardrobe tastes aren’t even remotely as expensive as Sarah Palin’s and that you keep it strictly J. Crew. You even showed up in head to toe J. Crew just to prove a point. But you seem to be quite the fashionista, showing up in shoes and clothes that aren’t even available in stores from labels that I can’t even pronounce let alone spell.

I want a damn explanation. I want to know what else you’re hiding up there in the White House. Do you have a secret fetish for Louis Vuitton bags and have tons of them lying around? Do your children secretly sport Louboutin shoes?

There’s nothing wrong with spending your money if you have it, but if you’re going to pretend to be a type of person and are secretly another way, then there is something very wrong with that. Don’t be deceptive Michelle Obama, it’s not a good look.

All I ever hear from your camp is that you are so in tune to the recession and that it affects you as it affects other families. I’ve heard that you are just a regular American family. Last time I checked, I’m part of an American family and we have never spent that amount of money on shoes. In fact, that’s more than half my rent.

Expect a letter in the mail from me because I hear your “down to earth” husband responds to letters personally. Wonder how he manages to do that and run our damn country?
