Republicans have been going insane lately on social media about President Obama wearing a tan suit recently.
CBC reported that “U.S. President Barack Obama threw tweeters into a tizzy during Thursday’s White House press briefing — but it wasn’t his words that got people talking. It was what he wore.”
Yep ladies and gentlemen – may I introduce the latest right-wing faux-scandal:
The Dreaded Tan-Suit-Gate!
Time has weighed in with a defense of the use of the TAN-SUIT, while Long Island Republican Representative Peter King thinks it inexcusable, telling right wing radio:
“There’s no way, I don’t think, any of us can excuse what the president did yesterday. I mean, you have the world watching. For him to walk out — I’m not trying to be trivial here — in a light suit, a light tan suit, saying that first he wants to talk about what most Americans care about, and he said that’s the revision of second quarter numbers on the economy. This is a week after Jim Foley was beheaded, and he’s trying to act like, you know, real Americans care about the economy, not about ISIS and not about terrorism. And then he goes on to say that he has no strategy.”
Obama’s press secretary joked about it, attempting to get in the last word on the matter; and Huffington Post reported the fashion industry applauded it.
But what about these displays of Republican Fashion Blunders On Parade?
