Michelle Obama was wearing a red dress today. What if Obama wore a red suit?

[DUlover2909]

What would be wrong with that? :P Red is a pretty color isn't it?

[Drunken Irishman]

1. Obama saying he's America's Pimp?

[silverojo]

8. I didn't want to say it...! - n/t

[MrSlayer]

2. It would have been awesome.

Like that 1920's or 30's style red suit that Denzel Washington wore in Malcolm X, when he was a number runner. I can't seem to find a picture of it but it was fly.

3. Well, if he got out of the limo wearing this

I would have busted something laughing. Priceless. All of the Freeper heads would have exploded.

But Obama is waaaay too cool to do that. and too serious.

[pirate_satellite]

4. What if he'd worn a bra?

Well?

[democrat2thecore]

5. Except on an electoral map! -nt

[Xipe Totec]

6. Santa? n/t

7. Michelle looked hot today. As Obama always said not red america or a blue america a united america.

[SeattleGirl]

9. If he had, I'd wonder if he were color blind.

Yes, red is a pretty color, but a red suit?

Nah!

[dascientist]

10. PRESIDENT IN MAJOR POSITIONS (P.I.M......)

[Vinca]

11. He would have looked as nuts as we know Bush is. nt

[stray cat]

12. Probably as if Bush wore a red suit -

he would look outlandish and not presidential and DU would be all over it

[WinkyDink]

13. "Pretty" being your operative word.

[LiberalFighter]

14. It was a nicer red than the dress Laura was wearing.

[MaineDem]

15. I'd question his decision making

Seriously.

[RollWithIt]

16. What would be next? Fedora Hat? Pimp Cup? Obama Pimp Cup!

[Fran Kubelik]

17. This thread disgusts me

Seriously.

[blondeatlast]

18. +1. nt

[DUlover2909]

19. I didn't expect the idea to take the pimp turn,

I was only trying to point out how men and women's fashions are so very different. I just imagined how funny it would be if one of the men wore a bright red color like the women do, that's all.

[Occam Bandage]

23. If you didn't expect that, you gotta get out more. nt

[DUlover2909]

24. I get out quite alot and I have never seen a pimp anywhere except movies.

In the movies they wear alot of different colors.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

20. Then he would be Huggy Barack.

[Recursion]

21. A) He would probably still look good

B) He would not look as good as Michelle.

I know the 2nd-wave types want to pretend this isn't true, but it is:

Women look better in certain colors and shapes than men. It's unfair and biologically deterministic but the fact remains.

Michelle is unimpeachably and undeniably feminine. I don't think anyone would call her "weak". Her clothes exemplify that.

And she looks damn good in them.

[Occam Bandage]

22. It would be totally pimp. nt
