"It would be nice if the political party paid for this rather than the taxpayers." "There is plenty of time between the election and the confirmation to celebrate." I couldn't agree more with any of these. And Andrew - J CREW isn't high-end? I thought it was up there. Not Gucci or Armani, but still pretty pricey. Here are a few comments from a friend:

I found it pretty ridiculous that the Obama family said they dressed their children today in J CREW clothing so they could say they weren't spending absurd amounts of money to dress them in this time of crisis. I wonder how much Mrs. Obama's wardrobe cost.... I'm pretty sure it wasn't J CREW. I was about to blog about the exact same thing.
