Right. It's just not fair. Obama has to pay for his own $1,400
suits.
Helps to connect to the middle class, you know.
Of course, his income from two "memoirs" pay for them. Or do they?

In your mind, perhaps, he's not done anything of importance. He's
had a
remarkable life so far.

I don't know what Obama pays for his suits, but they're nothing
special.
He might be a bit hard to fit because of his height and lack of
avoirdupois, though.

A $1000 is about average for a decent made to order man's business
suit
these days, by the way. I wore one yesterday for a meeting downtown.
Boy, was I surprised...right after Labor Day, the client changed its
dress code to "business casual" except for board meetings and meetings
with "new investors." I was the only one there wearing a tie...but not
for long.- Hide quoted text -

Yeah, sure, we believe you.
It might be true. He's 6'3" with a 30" inseam. That would require a
custom suit. As for the meeting - pure bull****. WAFA.

6'3" with a 30" inseam means some short, squat legs. I'm 6'3.5" and I
wear
a 33" inseam. But, since most casual clothes don't come in a 33", I
have to
go to 34", or wear them 'low slung' - which really drives the girls
crazy!

I'm about 6'2" with a 32" inseam. I don't have any problems finding
trousers with my inseam length.

I could have sworn you said in the past that you were taller than that.
