A model wears a short dress with a portrait of Democratic presidential ...

I have a hard time believing this story that the fashion world treats political parties equally. I have previously mentioned Versace's fashion line dedication to Obama but the newest fashion buzz is the Obama dress debuted at Paris Fashion Week. Some say that Paris Fashion Week had clothing inspired by both Obama and Palin (because one model had a beehive similar to Palin's hair, minus the bangs).

Would I mind if the hair was Palin-inspired? No. ButI don't think that one model's hairstyle should be waved as the banner of fashion's nuetrality in politics especially when it is put up against a dress emblazoned with the Democrat candidate's face.

Great!
I'm so happy to focus on fashion! That's so much better than those pesky headlines on record-breaking unemployment and a VP candidate who thinks her job description is open to interpretation. Thanks, Faith!

I was afraid
I was afraid this was going to say that the ugly tablecloth-curtain dresses that Mrs. Obama wears are now the fashion standard. Someone else said her dresses looked like couch upholstery they've seen in a now defunct furniture store. My real fear was that she was bringing going to singlehandedly bring back the bedazzler, what was up with the faux flowers at the neckline that looked like they were made from fabric remnants attached with the bedazzler rhinestone studs!

Goat, don't be so jealous...
Just because you envy the model, what she's wearing, and her wardrobe - doesn't mean Faith can't write about it... You look so petty when you do.

Correction...
NOT record-breaking unemployment... Just more unemployment since Billy Jeff's second term, and not even close to the unemployment gifted us under the Carter administration...

Subpoena!
Maybe the model could wear a dress with the image of Sarah's valid subpoena on the front, the judge's verification on the back. Is it ok with you people if I ignore a subpoena, too?

Who cares?
Celebrities and the fashion world a are bunch of self-important idiots who live the most unrealistic lives. These people hurt BO more than they help, this doesn't change any minds. All these I'm and artist/I'm so different types are already swinging from his nut sack. "Artists" and people who pretend to be someone else for a living should keep their opinions to themselves but they don't because their handlers are constantly telling them how great they are. Well their not, and maybe if a group of DOCTORS or SCIENTISTS came out and said he we think you should vote for this guy then maybe someone should consider it.
