Whatever Happened to the "Elegant" Michelle Obama?


During the 2008 Presidential campaign, not only did we here from the elites about how brilliant Barack Obama was but also how elegant was his muse, Michelle. It was bad enough that my lousy candidate lost, but to be told everyday that up was down, black was white, good was bad, etc. was like having Preston Lacy of Jackass fame fart in your face while he's on a diet of only pastrami, cheese, and warm beer. The political class went on and on about Michelle's beauty and class. "Look at how she shows off those arms," some said. "She's workin' it!" Maybe it's me...I could be wrong... but even on her best day she looks like something I saw running in the third race at Santa Anita.


During 2010, the Obamas have taken many a vacation and Michelle's elegance may have gone away. Not many elitists mention her beauty and elegance anymore. While on vacation, her hairstyle of choice seems to be the "Samurai First Lady."


I've not heard any mention of it. Perhaps she was inspired by the late John Belushi from Saturday Night Live. Maybe even the pro Obama pundits are so sick of all the vacations while the rest of the country goes down the drain that the best they can do is just report the facts about our First Lady without lathering her in peaches and cream.
