Everyone has the right to Bare Arms, too. But, the rwing insanity club was b*******, whining, and moaning that First Lady Michelle Obama did not have that right.. I think it was after the First SOTU?

Anyway..

"Michelle Obama 'Doesn't Look Or Act' Like A First Lady, Says Virginia Voter Bobbie Lussier"


Lussier: "They talk about more like her dresses and how she looks and stuff and her arms and whatever. [...] You see her walking around in shorts, and you know, just real casual wear. And to me ... I mean when I go to functions I kind of dress up other than today, but you just gotta look the part."
Lying like a MoFO is okay but stay the hell away from Those Beautiful Bare Arms.

"My problem with Michelle.. I refer not to her politics, but to her arms — her bare, toned, elegant arms. Enough!"

Then again, Mrs. Obama will be 49 in January. Could it be time for her at least to begin to ponder setting a new fashion trend? Here’s a thought. Maybe she could take a cue from her husband and, in a bipartisan gesture, adopt Ann Romney’s preference for elbow-length sleeves and red taffeta. Or not.

This is NOT Victorian Times.. oh wait, that's their problem.

Thanks for the pics, silverweb and thanks for the OP, Play

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]Which confirms the importance of a constitutional right to bare arms.
