It's childish in the extreme to demand monkish asceticism from those who seek to help others.  I will guarantee you that not one single homeless person helped by the money raised will give one hoot what kind of shoes she wore.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[C.S.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 2nd 2009 12:08AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mrs. Obama's Lanvin Sneakers]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</guid><description><![CDATA[c.s. - good job - don't let the facts get in the way of a good story that suits you - democrat...  the FACT is that she wore $540 SNEAKERS to a HOMELESS event...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[cantdrive55]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 6th 2009 9:26AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mrs. Obama's Lanvin Sneakers]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</guid><description><![CDATA[OK who fucking cares what type of shoes the lady wore at a event..I can see if she were a $50,000 outfit and 50 million dollars worth of jewelry..get off her team damn....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Yeah]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 1st 2009 11:02PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mrs. Obama's Lanvin Sneakers]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</guid><description><![CDATA[she was a hard working corp lawyer. so ofc shes got some money, whats wrong with indulging yourself if youve earned it? being the first lady does not mean you must take a vow of poverty...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[colin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 2nd 2009 2:19AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mrs. Obama's Lanvin Sneakers]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</guid><description><![CDATA[Rich people are evil and need to give 90% of their wealth to the poor. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Corey]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 2nd 2009 3:45AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mrs. Obama's Lanvin Sneakers]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</guid><description><![CDATA[You're insane.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TDK]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 2nd 2009 4:36PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mrs. Obama's Lanvin Sneakers]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</guid><description><![CDATA[This was just another photo op.<br><br>The poor get bags of food. <br><br>The rich get richer by getting our money. <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Inny]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 2nd 2009 3:49AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mrs. Obama's Lanvin Sneakers]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</guid><description><![CDATA[be patient, inny - your current government is doing their best to make your dreams come true...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[cantdrive55]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 6th 2009 9:41AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mrs. Obama's Lanvin Sneakers]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</guid><description><![CDATA[What gets me mad is the damn things where made in China by a 19c an hour slave so they only cost about $2 a shoe to make but they are selling them for $540.

Ditto for her comment during the campaign that the $500 Bush tax break would only buy you a set of earrings. Barbara Bush can act and talk like a clueless blue-blood because she doesn't know any better. But a woman who incessantly trumpets her working class South Side Chicago roots and then parades around in designer sneakers at a photo op looks like a nouveau riche.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[lavaughan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 2nd 2009 6:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mrs. Obama's Lanvin Sneakers]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</guid><description><![CDATA[Oh, LaVaughan, please!  This is your First Lady, and you should learn to tolerate and embrace her insincere and hostile ways just like the rest of the world has.  Those preciously tacky Lanvin shoes are only a small down payment on the reparations that this angry woman believes are owed her.  Although she has been afforded advantages, opportunities and luxuries beyond the reach or imagination of most, it has been noted that she can be [and -- in spite of the best efforts of a paid staff of advisers -- likely will continue to be] as rough as a COB.  We are barely 100 days into what will probably be a very long ride.  In view of the fact that we are undoubtedly in for a continuing flow MLRO BS, I would suggest you simmer down and stock up on some Charmin.<br><br>Abby]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Abby]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 2nd 2009 10:41PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mrs. Obama's Lanvin Sneakers]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</guid><description><![CDATA[The above comments are outrageous!! "Angry?" "Reparations?" You're damn straight we and all other hard working black folks NEED and DEMAND reparations from smug overeducated whites like you all. Michelle Obama will withstand your negative attacks because she is a beautiful, accomplished Powerhouse of a woman and a MAGNIFICENT First Lady, one we are ALL proud of!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Francine O.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 2nd 2009 11:11PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mrs. Obama's Lanvin Sneakers]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</guid><description><![CDATA[So, Francine, shall we guess what that 'O' stands for, or do you plan to share it with us?!<br><br>Abby]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Abby]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 2nd 2009 11:14PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mrs. Obama's Lanvin Sneakers]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/05/01/mrs-obamas-lanvin-sneakers/</guid><description><![CDATA[Oh Abby!!
