Wisco says:

You know, I think I'm wearing about fifty bucks worth of clothes right now. We liberal elitists shop at trendy little boutiques like Farm & Fleet.

Real salt of the earth types wear thousands of dollars worth of jewelry and designer clothing, because they don't hate America.

I'm so ashamed...

Price wise you've got me bear Wisco, My newest piece of clothing cost $25. Everything else I own and is from a thrift store or has been given to me. But you know in spite of what we don't spend on clothes I bet we're still good people.

Popped Collar? Spray-On suntan? Needs to be dragged across the stage?

No wonder McCain offered her up to a bunch of bikers. That might loosen her up a bit.

I'm wearing a $20 hat I bought at a fundraiser for the local community radio station -- it's probably the most expensive thing I'm wearing right now

One of the earlier disses about Obama is that he was posing in his blue jeans. Not a suit. Blue jeans.

How many of those third-world people that Cindy visits could be fed, clothed and housed just from the price of that ensemble?
