She's the first lady, okay? Have you never gone through a time where you were under additional scrutiny such that doing whatever you felt like didn't seem like such a good idea? It's not easy, but she signed up for it.
She has someone on her staff who is paid to make sure she looks good. Therefore, it is perfectly appropriate to snark when she looks like that.
And, frankly, she is old enough to know better. Cut the bangs and live with the consequences. I've had bangs and then no bangs many times over the years. You cut the bangs, you know what you are in for in about a year when you get sick of them.
Angry narcissists never get over themselves. Her infamous statement belies her true feelings that for the first time in her life she is proud of her country. Then she repeats it..."For the first time." Apparently not one positive event in her life could be dredged up and pointed to with pride. Sad...
I remember, Ann, in the run-up to the 2008 election, you waxed dreamy about what a lovely family the Obamas were. Well, here is that lovely family, representing the US in a foreign country - in public. Classless, graceless people:
I've heard the term "growing out her bangs" a thousand times. I don't know what the fuck that means. And, I can die comfortably never knowing. So, don't explain it. I'm only interested in ass hair.
Surely with all those HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of dollars that we taxpayers are shoveling to the Obamas so that they can live the lifestyle of Kings and Queens.....they can find the spare change to hire a competent hairdresser and buy some industrial strength hairspray to keep her hair in place.
You are a public figure Michelle. Get used to being ridiculed and criticized. When you look like a shaggy dog or wear horrible, rumpled, mismatched clothing, we are going to call you on it. After all. WE are paying for it, whether we want to or not.
And to be fair. I do like that pants outfit and shoes that Michelle is wearing in the messy hairdo shot. It is flattering and the colors are nice.
WHY is she giving a speech at the G8 conference? Who gives a flying eff what the woman who is married to the guy in the White House thinks about anything?
We can say whatever we want about Mrs. Obama. We taxpayers have spent millions keeping her fed, comfortable, and entertained.
We ask so little in return. Like all First Ladies, she doesnt even give us a thank you. I am beginning to resent our system. Entitled witches everywhere.

She's growing out her bangs, okay? Have you never gone through the issues of growing out bangs? It's not easy.
That's like 90% snark and 10% Girl Stuff I Don't Know About.
It's a rhetorical figure for her personality.
The Obamas 2008.
"Girl, you're wreckin' my campaign."
"All I said, all I said was I'm proud of my country! For the first time."
"We are this close to gravy train for life."
"All right."
"We can vote ourselves raises. Destroy our enemies. Paint the house black if we want to. You just got to shut it."
"All right!"
"You just need a project to keep you busy. And be pretty, baby. Smile! And I need you to stop doing that graffiti at night. That's not helpful."
"grumble grumble motherfucker grumble"
The Obamas 2013
"Yes! I rock! Scandal free for five years. My enemies are reduced to talking about my hair. They got nothing. I am the one. How you doin', Barry?"
"Shut up."
This should silence the people who said those bangs were a wig.
She cured me from wanting to get bangs. I have to say though, she looks much better in a pants suit than a dress.

It's the fringe ideas falling into her eyes that appall.

She needs to get over herself.

I'm going with wig. Besides, bangs are not a wig. The bangs come with the wig.
Wigs and thanks!
Yes, treat her like a 14 year-old girl who made a fashion mistake.
I really thought Wookie fur grew faster than this anyway.

LilyBart--Wow! That is an entire article about Bitchy Resting Face.
Why was the First Lady addressing GG8?
And as a side note -- she was wearing pants?
Without a jacket. Or tie.
That's G8. Sticky keys.
She did a pretty good job of touching up her roots.

The Book of Kells is pretty cool, but I expect teenage girls to be less-than-enthralled about it.
The last image, of Obama with the schoolkids, is the best of the bunch. It's a nice photo.

Woman needs a comb.
And, for God's sake, quit trying to make her Jackie Kennedy.
Mamie Eisenhower had better fashion sense.

LilyBart I laughed my ass off at those pics.
OMG, that first picture is hilarious.
I can't stop laughing.
The whole collage is actually brilliant.
Poor Malia.
I couldn't care less about her bangs.
I just wish she'd do something about those hideous teeth.
"If you don't like the game, don't play."
I'm only interested in ass hair.
Peter, meet ndspinelli. Ndspinelli, meet Peter.
Growing out your bangs isn't easy. But it's harder when you're ugly.
I just couldn't resist that old joke we used to tell in high school.
What happened to her eyebrows? They need to grow out too.
