Dubya: Fashion Fascist!

Posted Jul 26th 2007 12:52PM by TMZ Staff

With 543 days left in office, George W. Bush has beefed up security at the White House so much, he's now enlisted the services of one of the most dreaded forces in the Western world -- the Fashion Police!
Pres. Bush
Despite approval ratings at record lows, the ongoing war in Iraq and a health care system in dire straits, Dubya has decided to take on the very serious issue of -- tour group attire! The terror alert has been raised to: Fanny Pack! Signs have reportedly been put up around White House entrances to remind visitors of the dress code: no jeans, sneakers, shorts, mini-skirts, t-shirts, tank tops, and most importantly, NO FLIP FLOPS! Paging the Northwestern women's lacrosse team!

With the new policy, the White House now has a more stringent dress code than the Vatican! Further proof that Bushie wants only conservatives in his White House. The Pontiff merely asks for covered shoulders, no shorts or skirts above the knee. Holy chic!

46. This sounds patently ridiculous. In a world where jeans and sneakers are what the rest of the world wears to sightsee (except in a few churches and holy places), people should be encouraged to visit in appropriate -- but not contrived -- clothing. If you are appropriately covered up and shod, that should be enough. I guess this is another case of no shoes, no shirt, no service...but since there is no service anyway why should the clothese matter.

47. To #50: YOU are the deranged person. You have just been brainwashed with what all the leftest media has put in your brain. Think for yourself why don't you. Listen to all sides, why don't you. But no, you and all the leftest won't do that. You just keep pounding the same thing over and over. President Bush gets blamed for everything, that's how the dems want it. Just so they can take back congress, (and do nothing) and try to take back the Presidency (and hide under their desks!)

48. And Oh, Before Bush was president, back in the 90's, I got a speeding ticket. I went to the courthouse on my scheduled date. As I was waiting to see the judge, a courtroom person, came up to me and said I couldn't see the judge because I was wearing shorts. I had to leave and come back. It's called respect, that's all I'm saying. You younger people don't know what that is anymore.

49. no shorts in dc weather from may-sept is very odd.

52. Good for him for TRYING to bring back values to this country! I am not a big Bush lover by any means...but show some decency instead of skin!

53. Susan. 53.

For your information, I am an "Independent Voter" and I "listened" to EVERY word spoken and speech given by George W. Bush while on the (first) campaign trail. For the astute "listener", it was clear Bush-Cheney would enter into an war with Iraq without 9/11 ever having occurred!

People who speak the "truth" only appear to be "deranged" to those who truly never weighed (both) sides during the (first) election!

54. LONG LIVE GEORGE BUSH JR.!!!

I suppose lefty-America prefers presidents who play cigar games with slutty interns???

55. That's right!
Bill Clinton raped Juannita Brodderick......molested Kathleen Willey.....exposed himself to various women. If his lesbian wife hadn't covered up his crimes he would be in jail at this very moment.

Level 3 sex offender is what Bill Clinton is.

56. Reasonable dress code in a contemporary society is a very good thing as so many appear to lack common sense (I'm shocked at what a large percentage of government workers wear in the State of California)!

Wonder if the nasty (rich) home-on-the-range boots Bush-Cheney wear will be banned? Guess it will take another 543 days for that gift to be given to the people of the United States.

57. Funny though, Sunshine, (very inappropriate name) You don't sound independent, just a very angry person, still "hanging on" to the chad saga, now blaming his brother and faulty machines. Since he's not :"your" president, why don't you just leave the country and find a better one, let's say like China, Cuba?
Back to the story, it's something like this, which Bush most likely had nothing to do with, that brings all the hate mongers out. I feel sorry for you. Dems and "so called" independents, so full of hate.

58. this strikes me as just another instance of the bushies trying to distance themselves as some kind of aristocracy from 'the rabble' . the last time i looked, the white house belonged to THE PEOPLE. barring security measures, an american citizen can wear any damned thing they like to visit a public building. i can sympathize with those who wish that folks weren't so slovenly, but it is not the business of goverment to dictate fashion.

59. You would think the redneck would appreciate people wearing flip flops, at least the secret service would know that those people are not one of those "shoe bombers". I cannot wait until he is out of office, he makes me sick!

60. I find it funny here that the progressives/liberals/democrats are the ones with the incoherent rants, and the conservaties/republicans are giving level-headed, non-heated, educated answers. Please don't give your political party a bad name the way most of your leaders are. I used to be a democrat and now I'm so embarassed by the way things have been going with the party that I've stopped claiming any political party at all.
