That's nice, Laura

First Lady Laura Bush in her $8,500 red Oscar de la Renta dress at an exclusive White House holiday reception

"Three women donned the exact same $8,500 red Oscar de la Renta dress, a fashion faux pas in itself. But that's just the beginning of this debacle of ladies in red.

It just so happened that First Lady Laura Bush was wearing the very same dress too".

Is it just me or isn't it a little pompous to be wearing a dress that costs $8,500?

For that much money, Laura could have bought 32 sets of extra body armor plates for our marines in Iraq.

That would have been a nice Christmas present from the First Lady.
