Exactly. This is just silliness.

SWTXBelle is right as well. This is a time when you WANT people spending money.

Those who can and do spend money right now are the ones who are going to bring this economy back eventually.

It is never a "good time" to make an extravagant purchase because there are always people out there who are envious and jealous- poor economy or not.

So I am certainly not of the mind that those who can live large in a down economy need to be ashamed of it. The First Lady wisely chose to not make note of the price because that would be tacky. It was the media that decided to play that up.
