Known government-teat succubus Michelle Obama showed up to the first night of the DNC in a shiny frock, much like the shiny frocks worn by Target addicted upwardly-mobile assholes who park their Camrys like they’re BMWs at your local Pier 1. (Joking, who goes to Pier 1?)
Allegedly, this dress cost around $400 or so. John Sununu, known fashionisto, believes that Michelle Obama is lying.
Former New Hampshire Gov. John Sununu questioned reports that the Tracey Reese dress Michelle Obama wore for her convention address Tuesday night cost $350 on a conference call with reporters Wednesday. Sununu accused the Obama campaign of peddling several lies, including the cost of the dress: “somehow I don’t think that’s the truth either.”
Here are a bunch of Tracey Reese dresses at Nordstrom. The most expensive one on the list is $595. Everything else is $350-$450. I am presuming that John Sununu buys his light summer dresses straight from the designer herself, probably over mimosas and hyperbolic screaming at nearby objects that look like Chris Matthews, so maybe he pays more?

Does Sunununu have it in a size 42?
All that extra yardage does add to the cost.
John thinks its a skin tight dress. On anyone else, it's a mumu.
Sununu muu-muu.
John Sueknewgnu
You know things are going badly for the Republicans when John Sununu is doing fashion commentary.
Yeah, typical. When you hate someone for no reason, and have no real reason to say anything hateful, attack their clothes. He's a catty bitch.
Plus she has much better arms than he does.
fat fuck.
He can't even attack the clothes themselves, so he has to put words in the campaign's mouth so he can claim they're lies (the campaign didn't put a price on the dress, but the NYT's reporting is easily confirmed)
It's all a verbose and roundabout way of saying "she's a ni-CLANG"
He was trying to say he really like that dress, but it just came out wrong.
Where's the expertise of the Wasilla contingent when you need it? Get Greta and the Grizz on this, stat.
And they can't even get that right.
He's such a BITCH!
Fashion, Sunoco. Learn it.
And here I'd figured Sununu to be a Vera Wang girl.
If he is talking fashion I am sure he loves him some Wang.
I was thinking either Lane Bryant or Omar the Tentmaker.
There's a challenge for Spanx….
Yes, but think of all the engineering jobs and space-age materials that would be created!
He can't see his, and besides, she's Asian-American and not in keeping with his self-image as a bigot.
This is how campaigns end.
Not with a bang but a whimper.
As for me, I should have been a pair of ragged claws.
Nice Poetry Slam.
Bet Big Dog's campaign night ended with a bang last night.
At first I thought "but Hils is in East Timor, or somewhere" and then I thought – "oh, right."
There once was a man named Sununu…
Your turn.
There once was a man named Sununu
who flounced in his Tracey Reese tutu
he barfed in a cup
when Michelle showed him up
then he ate it like warm ramen noodles
There once was a man named Sununu
Whose utterance was really a loo-loo
When a Republican cries
You can bet it's all lies
Because that is all they can do-do
There once was a man name Sununu
Who knew none of the things a guru knew.
Spouting daffy flim flam? Sure!
All the folks in New Hampshire
Knew Sununu's reviews lacked a clue (True!).
There once was a gov from New Hampshire
Filled with self loathing, for damn sure
He'd dabble in butt play
And insult the first lay-day
His head stuck in his own anal fissure
There once was a man named Sununu
whose front lobes degraded to poo poo
his pronouncements were heinous!
Fuck him in the anus,
til my dick from his throat protrudes through-through.
Who'da thunk that Sununu was a Project Runway fan.
You seen that guy's clothes? Fucker needs to watch reruns of Queer Eye.
Well, he is a fierce tranny.
The John you hardly knew-knew.
Make it work!
I just think he had taken some of Rebecca's acid and the dress was all tripping him out, so it muuuuust have been like a millllllion dollars man…
I think it will *retail* for under $400 – but that may not be what it cost which I'm betting was NOTHING – she got it fo' free from Tracy Reese. Welfare queen.
She's not allowed.
Nancy Reagan tried that and got in muy trouble, so ever since, the First Family has had to pay for clothing.
Unlike, say…
Ahem. The way it goes, is, "You know who ELSE tried to get free clothes through her political connections?"
To which the response would be :
"Eva Braun?"
Rafalca?
Marie Antoinette?
AOTK?
It's obvious that she skimped on her hairdo to buy that dress. That wayward curl she had flying off to the side, was distracting but gave her that down-to-earthiness that's adorable.
I just wanted to reach through my TV and fix that for her…
Is this more of that Gabby Douglas hair bitchery, like during the Olympics?! I thought the First Lady looked fine, but my wife had to get catty about a lock of hair I didn't even notice.
Yeah, I didn't know about it until today. Guess I was too rapt by her barn burning speech.
"That wayward curl she had flying off to the side, was distracting but gave her that down-to-earthiness that's adorable."
…..down-to-earthiness that's fuckable. Isn't that what you meant to say?
That would be the lock that tickles my tummy as her head bobs. But to your question – ya. Immanently.
I thought it was intentionally symbolic, like Barry brushing off his shoulder.
He has the exact same one in his closet. Snusnu's upset because he wanted to wear that to the DC correspondent's dinner and now thanks to Mish he can't.
Snu-snu is one ugly and fat mean girl.
He should still wear it and then US or People will put it on their "who wore it best" page. This would be the first time the split was 100% to 0%.
I think you mean "Bitch Stole My Look".
Watch your ass, Tim Gunn! (No seriously, watch your ass…)
I shop at TJ Maxx.
Today, we are all Maxxinistas.
I've resolved to henceforth buy all my dresses and frilly things at Costco.
YES! There must be something we need a great wall of….
That noise you hear is the National Park Service setting up chairs for Obama's second inauguration.
*BIG SMILE*
I question the wisdom of this. Won't the chairs just be trashed in the Post Election riots?
Oh, the chair-manity! It would be a chairpocalypse of sorts.
Chairs are people too, my friends.
CWUY – chair-wielding urban youth.
Because if it's the other guys, the audience would all ride their own chairs, right?
Make sure you reserve one of those empty chairs for Clint!
He's going to need an empty stadium to yell at after the electorate disappoints him.
He should know, he probly has a closet full of them.
I always felt he and J Edgar had a lot more in common than just body type.
Mmmm, if Sununu knows the price points on ladies fashion does that make Lindsey Graham's ham & biscuit lovin' heart go all atwitter?
You bet it does! And you know that they both spend all their time in the closet.
What are the Hogettes wearing this fall?
I wonder if the word "lie" has been a bit overused as of late.
Depends on who you're talking about.
You are right. Then, I am talking about the ones that lie so much in this cycle calling the ones that don't lie so much…liars.
Well it is appropriate to pretty much every single thing Paul Ryan says.
You lie!
This is from a prominent Romney campaign representative. And Romney is in a statistical dead heat with Obama. I am going back to cuteoverload.com.
Here to make you feel better:
http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/09/…
Thx, Sobot. Made me feel much better … of course, so has the convention.
The convention has been so chock-full of "finally someone said that on TV", it fills my heart.
I was watching PBS and they mentioned that the Mittster will not be watching the Prez's speech tonight. What a douchebag!
And a moron.
Sarah Palin.
Your move.
I can see her telling Ryan to "wear glasses, it will make you look smarter".
Does little to help anyone sound–or be–smarter, though.
She is probably still screaming at Todd for losing his reality show competition to a girl.
Did he?!
She wouldn't know, being as the GOP bought all of her clothes.
Certainly. Left to her own devices, she wears stuff like this:
http://www.nytimes.com/imagepages/2009/07/05/us/p…
http://juneauempire.com/stories/051909/loc_441624…
So much nicer hearing about Sarah Palin than from her, isn't it?
Although the Ryan marathon lie unwittingly made her a admirable runner. I'd rather people stop referencing her unless it's a measuring stick to ineptness or colossal political mistakes.
I guess Sununu reckons Michelle should make her own clothes at home, between her sandwich-making and husband-pleasuring and floor-mopping chores.
He would be fine with any of those as long as she isn’t crowding up the Woolworth’s lunch counter.
As long as she doesn't procreate. He doesn't want anymore uppity blah people.
The thing is I bet she could make her own clothes if she had to, and they would be FABULOUS because she can do anything.
I with you. $10 says FLOTUS could handle a Butterick pattern if the play came up. Her mom taught her that, I bet.
Wait, what? Does this even make sense as an attack? I don't get it.
No.
For quite awhile I have had trouble distinguishing what republicans actually say from Onion headlines. Thus, I would conclude it hasn't made sense for a long time now.
You have to put it into context – The Infinite Conservative Payback Loop.
Richard Nixon was almost impeached. So the GNoP had to go after Bill Clinton and try to get him impeached.
George Bush was inarticulate. So the Republicans go after Mr. Obama and his use of the Teleprompter.
Nancy Reagan was accused of accepting designer clothes and not reporting them on her financial disclosure forms. So the "conversatives" go after Michelle Obama's dresses.
I see what you mean, but that might make a little too much logical sense (in a crazy sort of way).
I think it might just be that they are deranged rabid bats, flittering dementedly around the room and bouncing off the window glass of sanity.
Nice!
I think it's meant to be part of a "Michele and Barack Obama were really super privileged and that whole "struggle" story was BS" rejoinder. They don't want to damage the tuna in the basement apartment – Mitt knew struggle, nobody knows the trouble he's seen, etc. narrative.
One of the Breitbart losers already has a post up on pointing out that [after Harvard Law School] they actually did pretty well. How surprising.
So they don't want people to know that the dress was bought at the same place voters shop, unlike "the eagle knawing at a nipple" top Ann R. wore when trying to look "casual".
Yeah, after law school. Note that there were many years before that. Unlike the Romneys, who both grew up super-rich and never knew what it's like to even be upper class, much less struggle.
Of course – that was why I stuck in the parenthetical remark about HLS.I did notice that the “Selling a bunch of the stock his dad gave him” part of the Mitt and Ann Romney life-and-death struggle in university story seemed to have been cut. For reasons of time, no doubt.—
Current TV has a nice, though rather simplified, documentary about Obama's career from graduating Columbia through becoming a Senator, running for the last couple of weeks. He put up with a lot of flack and frustration serving the community here in Chicago in the '80s and '90s, when he could have been making beaucoup bucks.
To me, Mr. Obama is the Jackie Robinson of presidential politics. The man has had to face down some serious racism without going down into the gutter. That is why Eastwood's performance art made me so mad. Mr. Obama has never used foul language in talking to all these assholes even though he looks like he could cuss a blue streak.
I really hopes he fires the crowd up tonight and gives the kind of killer speech that will make Republican heads explode. And then I want him to hand Mitten's head to him at the debates. FIRED UP AND READY TO GO!
Criticizing Negroes for owning anything of value plays to their base.
That's so sadly true.
Ann Romney's dress was woven from the hair of aborted fetuses and dyed with the blood of kittens. That shit ain't cheap!
When Sununu is bellyaching on November 7th about how stupid we are for having reelected President Obama, I'm going to laugh until I barf.
And when he starts bitching on January 20th about Michelle's inauguration outfits, I will laugh even harder.
Sununus are terrible cars.
Terrible gas leaks, from what I hear.
So who tipped off Sunununununu about the cost of the dress, Marcus Bachmann?
Sarah Palin? Oh no, wait, she gets all her designer stuff by the armful FOR FREE FROM THE GOP.
Yeah, I know I always look for John Sununu's viewpoint for the latest in fashion and style news…
Where is Ken Starr when we need him most, an investigation into dressgate needs to be undertaken immediately. If it takes 10 years and $70 million it will be time and money well spent.
as long as it's not evil stimulus money, i'm in
It's not a stained blue dress.
I love the smell of desperation in the morning.
It could have been worse; it could have been Dick Morris talking about her shoes.
I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.
Me too.
Shrimping with cocktail sauce
Me-ouch! They really have nothing. Rmoney should do the honorable thing and commit seppuku.
…isn't that a little icky? And isn't he strai–
<googling>
Oooh!
Have you seen the size of the man's gut? That'll be a loooooong process.
Since I don't think he's honorable, he'll just keep embarassing himself.
Maybe they should just go straight to the ritual beheading. Go-zimes-in-yur-ass, Anjin-san.
Can we have a lottery to be the second?
On Youtube.
Republicans have become experts in the price of women's clothing since the selection of their last veep nominee, for some reason…
If anyone is interested, last night's little lace number was custom made by Thom Browne!
He prefers the $12 Sununu muumuu.
Your move, gay people.
Let's see, Paul Ryan lied about Obama's record on Medicare, welfare, and at least four other issues, and was so blatant that even FOX News' website called him out and had the evidence to do so…
…so, the GOP response is to accuse our side of lying about the cost of a dress, with zero information…
This has been one dumb ass campaign from one dumb ass party: can't wait to see what the Reeps come up with next…
Bush would have upped the Terror level thingy by now.
No one ever commented on how gay that rainbow-hued terror-alert system looked.
…and I mean "gay" in a good way.
To mauve at least.
This is so the press could say that both sides do it.
Sununununu and Miss Lindsay should buy together, see if they can get a bulk discount.
Bulk in more ways than one.
You saw what I did there.
Tell me what you saw. I had to look away.
WHERE ARE THE FUCKING TAX RETURNS?
I just saw where some anonymous hackers claim to HAVE the tax returns!!!!!!!! http://hypervocal.com/news/2012/anonymous-hackers…
Wonder if the domain, "Wherearethefuckingtaxreturns.com" is taken?
Guess you missed our Wonket's own coverage then. Sounds like they're keeping them right next to the Whitey Tape.
How does this compare to Sarah Palin grifting several thousand dollars from the Republican Party for a new wardrobe for the RNC in 2008?
Doesn't?
Doesn't!
Several = 140, as I recall.
From Saks. In my town.
Lies? The Romney campaign has lied about everything from Romney's employment history with Bain to Ryan's marathon time. Meanwhile, the fact-checkers are giving Bill Clinton a 100% on his fact-filled speech last night. Tell me again who is peddling lies?
Well, not entirely. Count on the Associated Press to give fact-checking – and journalism itself – the worst name since… well, since Sununu.
Except for the AP, who gave it a grade of BJ
There's nothing like a high grade BJ. Since it's my birthday, I might actually get one of those later this evening.
Happy birthday!
That's not how we offer blow jobs at my house, but thanks.
Hey Sununu, what's the current price of a rumpled suit.
Empty, like yours?
Don't you dare pick on our fabulous Flotus! I will throw a stapler at you!
And I will search out a packing knife. (And then look around for someone who doesn't throw like a girl.)
Hey, I throw like a girl because I am girl. Ok, a woman. Ok, a middle-aged woman.
Ok, racing rapidly toward 50 years old, but that's neither here nor there.
Hey- were you adopted? Maybe we were separated at birth!
Hey, another member of the Long Memory Club!
We should form a club. An elite club of course…
I'm glad I'm not the only middle-aged woman with a male avatar!
The awesomeness of Dr. Zoidberg transcends antiquated notions of gender!!
Also, Otto the pilot is fantastic!
And I will be right behind you with a box of staplers so you don't run out of ammunition!
I have a three hole punch at the ready. And I am not even talking office supplies.
Milton Waddams approves.
I actually have a red swingline sitting here on my desk!
Still have my Tot from soooo long ago…
So does John Bolton.
I've got a desktop scanner here I don't use much.
Ok, we're a motley crew with a wide range of office supplies – let's go!
Herb Kornfeld approves.
At $450, Ann could have bought less than half a shirt.
Those people in that White House are such peasants.
I won't have an opinion about this until I hear what Sarah Palin has to say about it.
She would have had the RNC buy that dress instead of paying for it herself.
Refreshing that someone has apparently shoved an old gym sock into that gaping, caterwauling maw, isn't it?
She must be going nuts at all the women invited to speak and none of them are her and no one cares. Wait until Gabby leads the Pledge of Allegiance tonight.
Sarah Palin was tranqued and tagged in order to get her into all that high-fashion stuff in 2008. As soon as the tranq wore off, it was back to her usual "Governors Of Wal-Mart" attire.
Okay, "Governors of Walmart" attire is good!
It certainly explains the bizarre superman-shirt-low-rise-capris-bondage-platform-shoes a few weeks ago at a fundraising event.
Really? That's it?? Michelle Obama's dress is their best shot for the day after Bill Clinton shredded their lying asses like a John Deere mowing down the grass???
Bwhahahahahhahahahhahah.
Yeow, the Big Dog sure did lift his leg and piss all over them cocksuckers last night. MWAHAHAHA!
I would like to see *that* as a Huffpo headline.
It was politically orgasmic!!! By the way, I'll have an Orgasm on the rocks!!!!
A queer eye has the fat guy.
No, no, John. You're mistaken. You're thinking of the higher cost of the dresses you buy in the Ladies Plus section.
Me thinks the Sununu is jealous that his man boobs don't look quite as good in a dress as the FLOTUS' lady ones.
Well, cut him some slack- she sure LOOKED like a million bucks…
Aw, that's sweet!
Seriously, Fat Boy, that's all you got? Some Project-Runway level bitchery? Better look into how much that mani cost while you're at it there, Sherlock. AMERICA NEEDS TO KNOW!
Yup, no doubt. If I were Rongney this is they guy I'd want for a surrogate and this is what I'd want him talking about. So engaging and persuasive.
Oh my god, please no
Sununu in a dress,
my eyes hurt, they bleed.
(bowing politely at the subdued response to my Haiku)
We sit here on our” loathsome spotty behinds squeezing blackheads, not caring a tinker's cuss for the struggling artist”
I assume Sununununununu spoke about Ann's $1500+ Oscar de la Renta dress and $500+ Stuart Weitzman shoes, too, right?!
which actually looked EXACTLY like the $150 '1947 dress' from j peterman that i have in two colors.
Yes! Frankly, de la Renta has been phoning it in for years. He dressed Laura Bush in all her unsexy librarian suits, yuck. The only dress of his that I can remember looking cute in the last 15 years was the pink dress that Alexsandr gave Carrie on Sex and the City. Otherwise, for all that moolah, meh.
i have to say, sometimes i'm very glad the first lady doesn't look like a first lady.
It needs more birds!
It's art if you put a bird on it!
in Portland
I still say it looked like a fish.
Looks like fish …
Tastes like tacos?
Welcome to Sununu's Tailor Shop. Whether you want jackets, we got jackets. You want trousers, we got trousers. This is a good time, believe me. We’re having a big sale. Tremendous. Positively the lowest prices. Maybe you need a nice double-knit. Incidental, I’m stuck with three pieces corduroy.
Sununu in corduroy would sound like logging in the Northwest.
"You're going to like the way you look; I guarantee it."
—John "Zimmer" Sunununununu
… in your Full Cleveland.
full Cleveland Steamer?
Long before there was the sex act, there was the outfit.A double-knit suit in plaid and/or ice cream colors was a Cleveland.Adding a white belt and white slip-on shoes made it a FULL Cleveland.
Euripedes?
Eumenides?
Jeezuz, I thought ol' Mr. Blackwell was dead. I guess he just became a brain dead Rethuglicon,
I'm SuOver Sununu.
No John, when attractive people wear clothes, it just looks expensive.
I like it better when attractive people don't wear clothes. In the proper venue, of course.
At my age, I will take whatever venue I can get.
Let's ask Ann "$1,000 fish-bird t-shirt" Romney what she thinks about this.
"It's attacking my titty!!!!"
Well, Ann did raise five fine white sons so she deserves every thing she gets. That negroidal doctoral holder with two blah girls however, not so much.
He's just mad because there are no Nordstroms in New Hampshire.
Wasn't it his criticism of Barbara Bush's clothes that got his fat ass fired by that one-term loser president, Geo. H. W. Bush?
What's next,? We'll hear from that Big Hair Girl (Sarah Palin) about Michelle's taste in clothes?
No, it was about his profligate spending of government cash on personal things. Daddy Bush got testy when 40 newspapers wrote EDITORIALS about Snooznu's use of government planes and limos for personal trips.
The most outrageous described accurately by Wiki: He "traveled to a rare stamp auction at Christie's auction house in New York City from Washington in a government limousine, spending $5,000 on rare stamps. Sununu then sent the car and driver back to Washington unoccupied while he returned on a corporate jet."
Dang, buddy, what was wrong with taking Amtrak?????
Amtrak! Drink!!!
Sununu? Isn't that those fancy tobacco pouches you chaw on?
Them Yurpeen tobacco teabags? "Snooz," I think they call 'em.
All I can say,
Sununu in a muumuu.
OT from the lovely Mrs O – According to this person, Romney has told 533 lies in 30 weeks. Looks like he's backed them up with references. I can't wait to have this discussion with my Republican relatives. I got some studyin' to do. http://www.patheos.com/blogs/slacktivist/2012/08/…
Looks like that was written before the two most recent installments from Steve Benen
So, make that 600 lies in 32 weeks. Actually I think it's 33 – Benen took a week off somewhere in there.
And, they're not 600 different lies. Romney has favorite lies he tells over and over and over and over again, no matter how often they're debunked by how many fact checkers, viz. "gutting welfare reform" (thanks, Bill Clinton, for taking him to the woodshed over that one last night).
Sununu needs a fashion primer from Tom and Lorenzo.
Contact a doctor immediately if your Sununu Sense tingles for more than four hours.
Takes real brass for a guy that looks like John Shamumu to criticize a woman that looks like Michelle Obama. (Roll eyes, pause.)
What Sununu really meant to say:
"GIRL. Snaps UP! That is a fabulous dress, diva!! Oooohhhhh I bet you paid BIG money. Go on, girl, flaunt what the good Lord gave you! Oh bitch, I hate you for having fabulous arms! Kisses darling, let's have lunch soon, yes?"
I think John should be much more concerned about the accuracy of Hellfire missiles fired from a Predator drone than he is about the cost of that dress. Particularly give what a LARGE target he makes.
IRONY – Sununu wants us to leave rich Republicans alone to buy their 8th holiday home complete with car elevators and a private beach because…..job creators, Ayn Rand, Atlas fucking Shrugged or farted or whateever. But he's gonna go right ahead and rip into FLOTUS for buying a *GASP* expensive dress.
Another example of It's Ok if You're A Republican.
Fuck off, Sununu, ya dickhead.
Thank the gods we have John Sununu to guide us to the truth in this campaign by making shit up.
If I was the guy married to Michelle Obama, I would get my ass to New Hampshire, find that fat prick and bounce a basketball off his head so hard you would be able to read the word Spaulding spelled backwards on his forehead.
Great Santini redux!
Didn't that kid marry Bonnie Raitt?
Yep
Sununu: “somehow I don’t think…"
Yeah, that's kind of the problem.
Sununu is so not-not.
I know that I should know this, but who is John Sununu? I was thinking maybe he was on that Queer Eye show, or maybe Say Yes To The Dress? I have no idea what a dress costs. Should I even be able to vote? Now this election just got REALLY hard.
Dayum Michell looks good. I wanna be like her when I grow up.
John Sununu looked up from sucking a dick to wipe the semen from his 600 dollar dress and then went back to sucking a dick. Where are the tax returns?
Meanwhile, Tom Brokaw has overdosed on Ambien on Morning Joe. Get him some coffee, Joe, stat!!
That explains a lot.
Greatest Generation libel.
America wants to see the long-form receipt, notarized, to prove that this Negress didn't just steal that dress or buy it with her food stamps before driving away in her limousine.
see, here's the thing john, dems actually don't NEED to lie. in spite of the fact that the economy sucks, job growth is low and america is tired and sad, dems are willing to have a debate on real things – actual history, specific policy choices, etc.
you won't – b/c you know all your side has is a blasted record, policy choices america won't support and a loud ugly group that is steering you off a cliff.
so yeah, go ahead and ponder about the cost of michelle's fucking dress.
no matter what happens in this election, you'reon the wrong side of history.
oh. and fuck you for ensuring that we don't have a policy debate that we actually need. asshole.
On that last point, I think Bamz and Biden will handle their business during the debates.
Great way to take voters' minds off of the whole DRESSage thing they want us to forget…
And the $150,000 trailer trash fashion-palooza.
By the way, has anyone heard from Rafalca lately???
Sununu added, "I mean, she looks like a disco pumpkin! She's got a Holly Hobby halter top and avocado dinner napkins tucked in her sides! The next thing you know, it's big button earrings and she's on The Facts of Life!"
That woman would look gorgeous with a potato sack on those shoulders.
Some people (the President) have all the luck in the world.
yeah, I was just thinking the same thing…When Bill was talking about nominating the Prez he said some thing about "I want the person who married this woman (Michelle) as my president" or something like that.
I thought it was cute how Michelle blushed when he said that (Bill, you old dog, you!).
I also thought that Barack probably arranged to increase Michelle's SS protection.
Luck? No, it was skill!
*sighs* Obummerz owes his entire life to affirmative action. Because blah. Duh.
Sunono is just pissed because Michelle's speech was written at a 12th grade level an Queen Ann's at a 5th grade level.
So Ann didn't sound as if she was talking down to us for no reason? I love PROOF.
Wait! I thought Sununu was busy flying around on the starship Enterprise.
What's he doing back on Earth so soon????
The GOP lecturing us on wardrobe costs? I am looking at you Sarah Palin. And at you Ann Romney. And at you Cindy McCain. This is like Newt Gringrich braying about the sanctity of marriage.
Because only Palin is allowed to wear fancy dresses.
Because she's white, sheeple…….
Hey Sununu! Dirty Hairy has an empty chair for you to sit and shut the fuck up in!
I don't think the chair could take his weight…..
Dress-gate just doesn't sound very ominous.
I'll bet it does on World Nut Daily. Storm clouds a-gathering.
I, for one, always turn to a New Hampshirite for fashion advice.
Why does Jimmy Choonunu hate Amurika?
Just had a hilarious image of John Sunnunu wearing that pink dress, seams abustin' all over, thanks.
I thought we weren't supposed to be jealous of success? Wouldn't a pricey dress be something to celebrate, not criticize, in their eyes?
Only if Michelle Obama happened to be Ann Romney, silly.
Sununu was brought in to be the "double down" liar for the Romney campaign….others may falter when confronted with facts, but John can be counted on to further obfuscate the clear farcity of lie-based idiocrasms with extended and fresh venomy lies, each further from the truth….at this point, he's probably itching to test for Bill's semen on Michelle's dress…watch for it…
Why is there welfare when black people have clothes?!?!!!111!
Screw the dress, look at her shoulders! That woman is HOT HOT HOT!!
And you thought his expertise was limited to stamps!
and travel…
on the government dime!
No dress big enough to shield Sununu's enormous twat from view.
I'm so glad that the Republicans have Sununu on their side.
They really got nothing. This is starting to remind me of that Allstate commercial with the guy who's jealous of his neighbor's sport vehicles, finally just saying, "Well, his dog's… stupid…"
And then the guy next to him sez, "Poodles are one of the most intelligent dog breeds."
Say, John, why don't you wander on over to Soledad O'Brien's show to discuss this matter? Be sure to wear your nicest dress and I'm sure that this time, Soledad will give you all the respect you deserve.**
**Just like she did last time.
I hope Sununu is helping prep Rmoney for the debates.
John: "So when the President summarizes the disastrous economic shitstorm he inherited from the last GOP administration, I want you to pull out your September issue of Vogue and go all Anna Wintour on his ass. That will win you the female vote."
$350? For $350 I'd buy it. Not for myself you understand, because I definitely do not wear feminine attire, never ever, no matter what you might have heard to the contrary.
I'll see you a $400 dress and raise you Sarah Palin's $150,000 RNC-funded shopping spree.
Sununu shops at the Big Fat Stupid store. Those plus sizes always cost more.
He seems to have forgotten his emperor (Romney) has no clothes.
FLOTUS. That's one fine looking woman right there.
Man, look at those biceps. Whoop some ayuss, 'chelle.
I suspect Sununu has those inflated dress numbers from what he sees on his wife's VISA card.
I know if I had to sleep with that popmous twit, I'd expect dresses in the high 3 digits.
I am perfectly content talking about spousal clothing during elections, because how else would I vent about Ann's Nipple Eye Fish Bird Shirt?
But to assume that someone is lying about the price of something that can probably easily be verified via Google… I mean, what does Sununu think this is? A Paul Ryan speech?
He paid way more than than that for his Tracey Reese design.
Just for the record, here are some fashion numbers from the 2008 Republican convention. The attractive jacket Palin wore during her hockey mom address was a Valentino priced by Saks Fifth Avenue at $2,500. The dress Cindy McCain wore on opening night was a $3,000 Oscar de la Renta number. She was also wearing a $4,500 Chanel watch with diamond jewelry that experts were unable to price accurately. Personally, I don't begrudge Cindy. I'd never spend money in that way, but she's got it and if she wants to spend it on designer stuff, it's not even her husband's cash, let along the RNC's. As for Ann Romney, she spends more on hair ribbons for Rafalca than Michelle's dress cost.
The call of th N.H.. woodpeckerhead Sununu, Sununu,Sununu
I'm pretty sure that death by Sununu was an episode of Futurama
My gaydar just imploded.
This is discussion is ridiculous.
Well, the dress may have cost $350, but I know for a fact (don't ask me how) that she wears $7000 gold lamé pyjamas to bed.
Sununu pays more for his dresses but he forgets that they take a lot more fabric to make.
Sununu is just pissed he couldn't find one to match his new pumps.
Not everybody has 25 large to blow on a dress like Mommy Raygun did.
Sununu is just jealous because he's still wearing J. Edgar Hoover's hand-me-downs.
Cleopatra?
Same here. I saw it on the reruns of the speech yesterday, but when I was watching live I never noticed it. And I noticed immediately that Rep. Allyson Schwartz from Philadelphia had a new do that made her look years younger (to distract from a facelift?), so it's not as if I don't pay attention to those things.
