Obama Wears Wrong Shoes To Tree-Planting (PHOTOS)

When President Obama attended a tree-planting ceremony in Washington on Tuesday, he made the mistake of wearing dress shoes to work in the mud, a decision he appeared to regret. Michelle, meanwhile, wore rubber galoshes befitting of the occasion. See photos below.

and dig the white gloves!! i guess the last person he saw with a shovel was mickey mouse.

[Epiphany2b]

They ALL have white gloves. I think those are waterproof, by the way.

[jazabelz]

Obviously you don't garden -- they look like a pair of kid skin gardening gloves that I use and love! Now troll, you can go back under your bridge!

[loki]

Who cares. He got off his butt and did something. More than you can say for a lot of people

[crutledge]

I admire the Obamas so much!!! I love all four of them! I really can't stand the new dog, though. I'll bet the Prez and the First Lady don't really like it that much either. They should have gotten a couple corgies.

[Sportsbabe]

Yes siree! I can't get enough. The entire family is easy on the eyes.
Like that great thespian of ole tymes said .... "if they hate, then let them hate and watch the pile up".

Barack : " Would you go ahead and wipe that off?

[swan1]

This is one FINE MAN !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am looking forward to seeing him on a regular basis.

[JScott]

Shoulda worn the wooden ones like the Dutch do.

[Melchedekan]

Why should he worry about a little mud? I'm sure he'll just throw that pair away and buy a new pair with all the money he receives from being a shill for Wall Street.

[Danigirl65]

And that, Melchedekan, wins you the idiotic remark of the day reward.

[Stefan Williams]

Of the day? Maybe the month! Nice job Melch!!

[ToniaB]

Poor dispicable soul!

[madatnewsmedia]

Why don't you get a life? this comment is so not necessary! We're talking about a pair of efffing shoes!

[Bluejay00234]

Yea just like the ones he wore down till you could see holes under the sole. Another idi0t that doesn't bother to check facts. Turn Faux off!

[RRonin]

For the record, Michelle is wearing wellingtons, not galoshes. Galoshes are huge, cumbersome boots that fit over street shoes and make you look like Frankenstein's monster. "Wellies" are what the Windsors wear at Balmoral and smartly dressed gardeners, farmers and hunters wear the world over.

Huffington Post: Please before you put up these stupid articles, do some dang research. He said in the video that someone forgot his shoes. Now you have to commend him for working eventhough he didn't have his shoes.

For Sure, If Rich White Man's shoe on the MUD
He yelled,"Mud on the @&% $1,000 Shoe"
Obama said, "Oh Well, that's happen, I'm sure My wife always warned me, she is right"

[Yurdelite]

I think reminding the Pres about the proper shoes would fall to "body man" Reggie Love not Michelle.

[Texas4Obama]

Yep. I think he did not want to mention Reggie Love by name on the C-Span video but that is who would be responsible for bring the rubber boots or someone else on the staff. I would not be Michelle's job to remember them.

[kellygrrrl]

Obamas are awesome. Who cares what they wear?

[kshawNCvoter]

*squeezes presidential boooottttty.* why are you so fine mr. president?

[PippiLongstocking]

LOL

[bellenoir55]

ROFLMAO! Watch out,that booty belongs to Michelle!!!
I KNOW she'd put a hurt on anyone squeezing Barack's butt!
But I understand the temptation....:-)

[IndependentTogether]

Okay, you squeeze the Prez's booty, I'll squeeze the First Lady's booty, then we both will haul ass together! You bettah keep up, though... I ain't stopping to help if you fall behind while Michelle is hot on yo' tail!

[ToniaB]

LMAO!!!

[ItsANewDay808]

rofl awww this comment made my day :D

[cyoohoos]

Talk about a lose/lose situation.

I can see the headline now....

See whose afraid to get his shoes dirty.
