I've noticed a disturbing trend in the media's obsession with First Lady Michelle Obama's wardrobe lately, and apparently I'm not alone.  Last night, Jon Stewart and Kristen Schaal discussed it on The Daily Show and even offered some politically-motivated outfits for her.

I love that they contrasted the role of today's First Lady (which is a flawed and loaded title to begin with--but that's an entirely different post) with those of the 1960's.  It makes you appreciate how far we've come, while still loathing how far we have to go.  *Sigh.*

I just wanted to say that I ventured to NYC yesterday to see this very taping. It was awesome and I was hoping I'd see something on feministing about this. Wooh!
