ROFL! Check Out Pickle's Sailor Suit! Plus! A Quick Change of Outfit!
:rofl:



First Lady Laura Bush waves as she and Capt. John Litherland pass the crew of the Navy attack submarine USS Texas after the commissioning ceremony, in Galveston, Texas, Saturday, Sept. 9, 2006. Bush, who agreed to be the ship's sponsor when she was still first lady of Texas, made the commissioning official. (AP Photo/Pat Sullivan, pool)

Now I Have to ask... WTF? Why the change of clothes on the sub????

28. Yes, for as porky as she is around the mid section, she sure
does like the sleazy tight look. As my hubby would say, "looks like they tried to stuff a ten pound sausage in a two pound skin."

4. she's wearing slip on pumps with her skirt/suit ... not conducive to
ease in climbing around a sub. Also, a skirt - does she have to go up and down ladders on a sub? A skirt would be not so good in that case.

8. You couldn't wear a skirt and heels on a sub
You have to go up and down ladders. But I don't understand why she didn't just wear the dark pantsuit for the whole thing.

9. Dresses on a sub? I don't think so
Access between decks is via ladder, if my memory of tours in the distant past is serving me well.

The last thing a woman needs is to be in a skirt having a dozen men looking up at her ass.

Katharine Hepburn once said that any man who complained about her trousers should try wearing a skirt. She was a very wise lady.

11. She was getting the grand tour
You need to be able to move your limbs going up and down those ladders. Plus, any shipmate under the ladder would get a full view on her way up or down.

She should have stuck with the trousers to begin with...

I think of that every time I see her photo! :puke:

She could also use some makeup advice. Rid herself of that "Joker" look?

18. I think she and the Captain make kind of a cute couple with
her in her white suit there. The chimp better watch it. He might find himself minus a "sailor-ette" and stuck with KindaSleazy on a full-time basis.

21. The fit of that skirt
chafed her thunder thighs - so she went for the fast relief of a pantz-suit?

34. Yes it does and it's been going on for far too long
but we will be taken by the hand out of this dream, just do the best we can until then

Y mas gan ulaghize
Let him be praised continually
Khibil ahamlack, yim mas gan
Glory to god, let him be praised

He will take us by the hand
And lead us to the wonderland
If we can be good, we'll be careful
And do the best we can

Ulaghize y mas gan
Let him be praised continually

He will take us by the hand
And lead us to the wonderland
If we can be good, we'll be careful
And do the best we can

Y mas gan ulaghize
Let him be praised continually
Khibil ahamlack, yim mas gan
Glory to god, let him be praised

He will take us by the hand
And lead us to the wonderland
If we can be good, we'll be careful
And do the best we can

Ulaghize y mas gan
Let him be praised continually
Ulaghize yim mas gan
Let him be praised continually

31. Good Lord! Why doesn't she EVER wear anything that fits her
properly? She looks like cheap trash, regardless of how much her clothes cost, because they never fit her correctly. They are ALWAYS too tight. Gawd, Laura, someone needs to sit you down and teach you how to dress!

ladders in a skirt.
But not fat ass women.

37. Uh Oh...the third sailor from the right is gonna be in trouble
His tie is way wrong.

Now I have to admit that I read all these responses before the pics loaded. I assumed her white skirt couldn't be as bad as everyone was saying. Shit, was I wrong! That's one of the worst outfits I have ever seen on a 55+ year old woman, let alone the friggen first lady of the US. Who the hell is responsible for dressing her - her mother-in-law???

Those slip-on shoes look perfect for sub duty. :eyes:
