The White House responds to a claim that Michelle Obama was using a $5950 purse by saying it's only a purse worth $875. Like that somehow makes it better because it's "only" $875?
Goes hand-in-hand with her $540 tennis shoes, doesn't it? Good to see that the First Lady is looking sharp as unemployment creeps towards 10%. Good to see her being a fashion plate as people go without healthcare. Good to see her polishing her image while people have their homes foreclosed.
My memory is a little dulled. Didn't a political party make a big deal about the cost of a candidate's wardrobe a few months back?
