Obama ‘Mom Jeans’ Controversy
July 15, 2009 | Posted by Shannon Bell I just love that we have nothing better to worry about than whether or not our socialist leaning President has fashion sense or not.
Just for the record, I could care less if Obama wore “mom jeans” or jeans purposely ripped at the knees ala 1986. My opinion, he should have worn slacks, he’s the President for crying out loud.
Below you can see a ridiculous report by CNN trying to make Obama look good. This comes via Hot Air.
Below that you can see a proud moment in American politics when George W. Bush threw out the first pitch at the 2001 World Series right after we had been attacked by terrorists. That was when we actually cared about our country.
We only care about “mom jeans” evidently.

Could you, could you really care less?
I am sure you couldn’t- but you’re a moron so we’ll just leave it there. Nice try though.
Moron? That’s all you could come up with?
Correction…..He’s not a socialist, he’s a communist!
exactly, he’s the president he can wear anything he what to. you are not use to people being real.
George W. Bush…….throwing the first pitch=proud America moment……..speak for yourself
George W. Bush…….picture it now 2009…….A Cold Day in Washington……Getting on a Helicopter and leaving Washington…….= PRICELESS!!!
He still throws better than Damon!
Actually it wasn’t about George W. Bush, it was about Americans coming together and understanding that our country was more important than or petty differences.
Liberals like you have no sense of country.
It’s not all his fault! He’s just part of a huge machine that is hellbent on turning this country into one of dependents. The more taxpayers that rely on this Administration and Congress, the more powerful they become! It’s a simple concept. The trick is to dupe the taxpayers into falling for it.
Liberals right now only have a sense of entitlement
You’re right David, and the ones who don’t pay taxes don’t mind to have the government “take care” of them.
We live in an American Idol society. Most Americans have no idea what the heck is taking place right under their noses.
Are you serious? I guess cnn have nothing better to report than to try to make the president look bad over jeans. I bet more than half the staff at cnn wears the same kind of jeans. I mean please…let the man wear what he wants.
Who really gives a shit what the man wears….lets worry about getting our damn men and women home safely and getting more jobs in the US for our people. I dont give a shit if the man wore sweatpants!
Shannon, I agree with you.
Obama should have dressed in slacks. He’s our PRESIDENT, not just “one of the guys”!
Would those of you who defend his common guy, hollywood personification have respected your high school principal if he/she dressed casually and acted like one of the youngsters? Admit it, no you would not have.
So far his presidency has been just more campaigning type behavior. I for one am sick of him already- this is gonna be a long 3.5 years!
Oh and those of you who resort to name calling, shame on you. It also shows that you are not the mensa members that you think you are.
Who cares what that clown who craves the spotlight more than he cares about fixing the economy. Where are all the job’s he promised? Forcing GM and Chrysler into bankrupcy, so the gov’t can run these companies? If he is so worried about fuel efficiency why not do away with Cadillac? All the brother’s and drug dealers would riot. Heath care reform? We need it but it needs to0 be done right and not hurried because he demands a bill on his desk by August? Climate control? Won’t work unless all countries adhere to same standards? Who is going to pay for all these grandiose plans? Not the rich, but those of us that are barely getting by. Why not focus on on task at a tike? He thinks he is god and can staighten out the mess he was handed. So far, not doing to well except lip service. How about him building a basketball court at the white house and saying he will use his executive priveledge to have James and the boy’s come play with him? Why not we are paying for it. Last but not least he needs to accept that he is a mulatto and not african-american, since he was raised by two white women.
It riduculous what amerians squabble about . It really shouldn’t matter what type of jeans the president wear… he’s effectively just going to throw a ball at a rounders game whats the big deal. Second for those haters out there that man is trying his best to make a very bad situation better, everybody know that even God took seven day to create the earth.
He is not God and I believe it has been more than 100 days.
Honestly Rachel, God had a reason for taking 7 days but I’m not going to explain the theology of it here.
Obama is nothing more, nor will he ever be more than just a man.
Liberals need to figure that out in a hurry!
Thanks L turned C, glad to see somebody out there thinks the President should have a little respect for the office he holds.
That’s the problem Becky, too many people don’t care. Not just about what our President wears but about a whole host of things way more important.
Your comment is a perfect illustration of the mindset of people in our society today.
A big reason Obama even got elected.
Hmmmm Mom pants..wow anything and I do mean ANYTHING it takes to avoid the obvious…Obama is failing ALL OF US Its just that only a few of us who aren’t into what the media wants us to think can see it
It’s amazing how naive some people are. Who cares about what obama wears. Those of you who are complaining about him should realize that he CANNOT fix everything and he is trying his best to give people hope in what is obviously I major crisis. The same people who complain about him travelling too much should realize that the American economy relies heavily on global cooperation, we may be a super power but we certainly do not rule the world.
Anyone who thinks Obama needs more time to “fix” this country needs a major wake up call. Anyone who researches what he is all about knows that he is a socialist not a democrat like all the band wagon jumpers thought when they made history when they voted in the first black president. We are all going to suffer from this. He is only going to make our economy worse. Universal Health care? really?? so all the doctors can stop being great at what they do because they wont need to impress anyone because we are all going to be assigned to them anyway. We wont have a choice. We will have to wait months to be seen. My sister in-law is from Germany. they have universal health care and dental care. Her teeth were so bad, it took one of our great American dentist many appt to fix all her bad dental work.
I agree. Liberals are very selfish but very generous when it comes to other peoples money…..
Actually, I think he should have worn coveralls and a straw hat
On the 7th day he rested.
I love it when someone says, “liberals like you.” Please, give me a break..I don’t consider myself a liberal or a conservative, but after 8 years of Bush, c’mon, God couldn’t even fix the mess this country’s currently in. Maybe all the conservative haters should take a good look at what they’re doing for the country…prob isn’t a whole lot more than those “liberals like you.” Shannon, why don’t you write something that’s worthy of reading? By pointing out the “jean fiasco” you prove you’re no better, or smarter than those you criticize in your blah-gs. I’m not sure what’s worse…3 1/2 more years of Obama, or reading, and listening to crap like this.
SHANNON BELL, READING YOUR COMMENTS I CAN TELL THAT YOU ARE A
FUCKINGJOKE. THE ONLY CONTROVERSY SURROUNDING OBAMA IS ABOUT HIS JEANS? NOT TOO SHABBY. CONSIDER THE MASS EXTERMINATION OF IRAQI CIVILIANS DONE BY DUMB AND DUMBER.Wait let me get this straight…you believe in god? And you think you have a right to judge others? Hypocrite bitch!
Tell me Kylo, who did I judge?
And just for the record I’m a man. So I guess you would need to call me a Son of a B%#@H.
He shouldve worn a throwback Jersey with Cleets…. You guys are funny! He can’t win with some of you…. He’s a real man doing real things that happens to be OUR PRESIDENT!!!! Yes, Fix yah face , YOUR PRESIDENT! He threw a base ball, flew around the world held several talks, signed some papers, took his wife out…. All normal stuff… You want him to be a fake A** robot like the Bush Boy! He’s not fake!!!! Live with it!!!
I agree… but sweatpants wouldve been better!!!
YEAH, A tux even!!!!
Its not even worth a comment…. LMAO
yeah, afraid we liberals did know what was going on right under out noses. Bush was shitting on the constitution.
I can’t believe people actually are criticizing Obama’s fashion sense. Like he said himself, he’s not 20 years old. What? Just because he’s Black he supposed to be wearing brand new $500 exclusive deadstock Air Jordans and skin-tight $300 vintage Levi’s. He’s the president of the United States, not Kanye West! George W Bush wasn’t exactly fly either. But Obama is still the coolest president America has ever had.
LOL – Thanks for making my day with this one!
Gag me with a spoon over this one……..
How old are you anyway………13?
“Coolest President Ever? Give me a break!
And Obama isn’t???!!! By the time he gets done, we won’t even have a constitution.
ummm….actually God created the world in 6 days and on the 7th day he rested. Please do not quote what you don’t understand.
