Beck compares Michelle Obama to Marie Antoinette for her beach attire. O'Reilly laughs at him.
As I listened to this clip, at the link on the bottom, I was worried that Michelle had worn spike heels and pearls to the beach but this is what she wore:

1. White. Intelligent wear for the weather.
Marie Antoinette never wore anything that casual. Her Petit Trianon costumes were elaborate versions of peasant dress.

2. Now, don't pick on Beck! Not everyone can pull off a
Speedo at the beach. :rofl:

3. He's grasping at straws now
That petty sorry excuse for a man; is so consumed with hate that he stoops to this kind of bullshit?

5. O'Reilly is starting to see through the bullshit on Fox
He clearly has no love for Palin, and here he not only dissed Beck but Laura Ingraham.

16. Personally, I'm going to refrain from giving O'Reilly any credit...
His flag flies whatever way the wind blows. I can't trust him; at least with Beck and Palin, you know where they stand.

6. And I compare Beck to Jean-Paul Marat
because SOME woman, someday, is going to stab him to death in his bathtub. Pity.

11. That is a cute outfit.
I'm going to look for a T-Shirt similar to that. I already have the white pants and it's perfect for strolling along the beach front.

8. I hope the RW keeps this brand of crazy up, it's tiresome overkill and it will
backfire--most of America doesn't give a shit one way or the other what dress Michelle wears to which function. We've all sort of got bigger fish to fry... unless you're Glenn Beck, I guess.

9. i will probably burn for this...
but sometimes Michelle chooses rather odd attire for the occasion... wearing a white top with black abstract splotchy pattern to visit an area hit by oil and black tar balls...she must not have realized the similarity

reminds me of her election night dress -deemed the Black Widow Spider dress and RED being a Rethug color it was not a very good choice imo



to avoid attacks - stupid or unfair or otherwise- she may want to select her attire more carefully

14. its flowers and they are blue. And I'll be damned if I'll give the GOP a perfectly good color like
red. (I agree and didn't like the dress but compare her over all record to Laura's. Michelle: 1 bad out of hundreds of classy, stylish looks, Laura: hundreds of bad, no good ones.)

17. I lived in the area for over half a century
and still have family and friends there. I can assure you her attire was fine for the area and this is totally Beck being a rodeo clown. Many in the area might wear something like it there just like you might see it here in Arizona. Totally stupid stuff by Beck.

15. He looks like the type, doesn't he?
Edited on Sat Jul-17-10 01:31 PM by Cleita
He's got that cream puff face that would look good in a dress and make-up.

13. Actually that would be Condaleezza Rice. Did you
see the get-ups she wore to the Crawford ranch and then had to stumble around in a grass field in spike heels to do a photo op.
