1. my god...
Edited on Fri Feb-02-07 07:07 PM by Neecy
Why does this woman always look like Ma Joad? Her clothing is almost always wrinkled and ill-fitting. The colors she wears are atrocious. Given her wealth and connections, she could easily look decent and not like she'd just rolled out of bed.

Bush in Verbal Japan Deflation-Devaluation Debacle

TOKYO (Reuters) - President Bush's wayward way with words sent financial markets wobbling on Monday when he mixed up deflation and devaluation.

Traders couldn't believe their ears when Bush relayed to a news conference that Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi, outlining his plans to revive Japan's economy, had placed equal emphasis in their talks on banks' non-performing loans, ``the devaluation issue'' and regulatory reform.

40. Because he thought it was better to puke on the entire country
(and its economy) than just one man.

11. That's because her overzealous ...
Plastic Surgeons (remember all those camping trips in the woods? hint hint) pulled her facial skin back so far and so TIGHT - that snare drum makers NOW use "the tension factor" as the industry standard. :wow:

7. I can see the conference that decided on this:
"What can we do that makes us look human?"

"Go to New Orleans?"

"Went. Didn't work. Think of something else."

"Well, NY is having a fashion charity thing..."

"Yes! Fashion! Vanity is human! Charity is human! Go to NY! Fake it for both of us."

Hopefully she'll get some fashion advice from the attendees; she needs it.

If you can't be a good example, at least serve as a horrible warning.

24. Frump dear .... fashion tip.
When you have an ass with a permanent "This vehicle makes wide turns" sign tacked on it, don't wear shiny materials in eye bleed colors.

the magenta colored couch? Most of her clothes look like they came from old upholstery fabric.

35. Ya know, every first lady has a wardrobe advisor. It sure seems to me
that sheis following her hubby's lead and hiring the most incompetent misfit "maybe" associated with the fashion world.

Either that, or she(just like hubby) pays no attention to their advise!

41. The color of the suit
makes Laura look like she's dead and forgot to lie down. That color makes her look white like a ghost. That bright red lipstick doesn't help her either.

45. if (when) she runs over another boyfriend, the blood splatter
won't even show. These conservative homemakers are just remarkable about blood stains....they just can't seem to wash them out, so cover-up, cover-up, cover-up.

by using black people as an accessory to complete her appearance.
