Michelle Obama Blows 50 Grand On Luxury Shopping Spree

The First Lady – better known for shopping at more modestly-priced High Street stores – along with the Queen of Qatar, Sheikha Mozah, closed off part of Madison Avenue to spend time in the luxury lingerie shop. Their purchases contributed to a market-spanking 12.5pc lift in sales. 
Agent Provocateur, which is styled on vintage Hollywood glamour, sells handmade Calais lace corsets that sell for up to £900, which could ruffle the feathers of more than just President Barack Obama in an election year. 
Better known for shopping at more modestly priced stores? Is that where one purchases $500 sneakers? Or $2400 cocktail dresses?

I am guessing this thinly sourced (to be generous) story will only circulate around the more remote edges of the conservative blogosphere.

But, I am secretly hoping the white house issues a denial, as the chance to remind everybody about newt gingrich's $500K plus tiffany's bill is too good to pass up.

I don't think that Newt Gingrich is trying to incite class warfare by claiming kinship with the 99%, Eat the Rich crowd either. So at least Newt Gingrich isn't a hypocrite - on this issue anyway.
