“President Obama wore a tan suit on Thursday while talking about Ukraine and the Islamic State, and political Twitter promptly went nuts. Over the suit. You see, Obama has a tendency to wear gray or blue suits.
“You’ll see I wear only gray or blue suits,” Obama told Vanity Fair in 2012. “I’m trying to pare down decisions. I don’t want to make decisions about what I’m eating or wearing. Because I have too many other decisions to make.” But this suit was TAN. So, what message is he trying to send exactly? We consulted our in-house fashion expert — Pulitzer prize winner Robin Givhan — to answer just that question. “There is nothing wrong with that suit – well, except it’s a little big,” Givhan said.”* Ana Kasparian, John Iadarola (TYT University), Jimmy Dore (The Jimmy Dore Show), and Brian Unger (How The States Got Their Shapes) break it down on The Young Turks.

This is about the dumbest, most idiotic non-issue there has been for a long time. What the crap … go say your rosary, go worship Rush Limbaugh .. go do whatever your obviously miniminds think you should be doing. I need a list of any politicians who made a comment about this issue so I can be sure not to vote for someone that drastically stupid.
MAYBE, and this is a stretch, it had something to do with the colors associated with each side? Grey/blue and he wanted to add a subliminal neutral tone to his appearance.
