Traitors!

Let them eat honeycrisp crostata!

"Honeycrisp Crostata" has a certain ring, n'est pas?

This is a California copy.

It's the wrong wine pair for this luncheon, BTW. Good. Let them suffer.

In other words, Melania served shitty white at her lunch.

Pride Mountain makes delicious wines.

And used in wine of a controlled name. Thus the designation appellation d'origine contrôlée , or AOC, which appears only on those products which conform to specific guidelines.

This California imitation cannot be labelled and sold in France as Viognier based, just as processed cheese cannot be labelled as Roquefort. It degrades the language. It should be labelled as Viognier-type, just as sparkling wine cannot be called Champagne.

I'm very well aware of the difference between a varietal and an AOC. Viognier is the varietal, such as pinot noir or chardonnay. Condrieu or Château-Grillet are AOCs made with Viognier grapes.

But I constantly see imitations of different foods labelled in stores. And you are of course correct that Condrieu must be made with Rhone Valley grown Viognier grapes.

This is the kind of thing Michelle Obama did on International Women's Day.

They love to copy the Obamas,they don't know shit!

It's nothing new for the WH and first lady, specifically to take advantage of these kinds of events. The handlers at this WH are probably under unique pressure and will try to get some kind of news that some fans will read as positive. Any possible distraction is their friend.

I said, "TONE DEAF," asshole.

Why can't I find a vomit emoji?

there are 3 ... Click there to expand the list and a vomit emoji can be yours. ( )

There are also sarcasm, WTF and other cool ones down there too that come in rather handy at times.

Eye of newt! Hilarious -to me anyway - and there's little to laugh at nowadays ~~~~

plump breasts of thyme-brined chicken,
hot juicy pork butt,
auntie em's famous glazed salsify,
and mama's homemade spinach gnocchi.

"Light" and bland food that pretends to be both pretentious and healthy; a meal that won't be threating to come up while playing with one's jewelry and mentally comparing one's bank account to one's neighbor's account and trying not to listen to the vapid murmurings of the speaker for the event.

Haele

are closely associated with the administration. These sorts of occasions would typically involve inviting people from around the country. They couldn't find some conservative women's activists to invite?

They could have invited women from around the world at that. Talk about insulating.

I don't see the point of making a big deal about everything the Trumps do. I'm sure the Obamas had some pretty nice menus as well.

mentioning that there were dozens of women there.

I prefer Michelle Obama's way of spending the day, but the WH menu sounds pretty yummy!

Editing to say I don't mean the DU posts, but the linked websites that I saw covering the event.

"Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the cauldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg and owlet's wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble."

her husband's underlings.

She was the bosses wife inviting people to lunch and pretending it was something it so clearly wasn't.

These people make me want to vomit out my soul. Fucking disgusting parasites.

Because the President and First Lady have to pay for their food and their intimate friends' dining.

I bet it is on our dime. that's why they have DeVos there.

There is a percentage that needs to be government employees to pass costs to tax payers. It may pass that law with Betsy and a few others there. Pence and Melanie don't count in the numbers. I am unsure how ivanka is paid. She may work for free like her father so I'm not sure how she's counted.

Not like that dumb old Obama! Why, do you remember the time he had orange juice with his breakfast? Boy, talk about out of touch and elitist! Chris Matthews sure had that snooty Obama's number on that:

But the Third Lady is just like all you other regular gals. See that menu? You all probably have all that stuff in your kitchen cupboards right this second, don't you?

At least, the Republican version. Hope all those white coal miners' wives who voted for Trump appreciated the recognition.

Eric makes Viognier - not overly good Viognier, but Viognier nonetheless - at his winery, and the Deplorables will probably think "Pride Mountain" is some sort of gay thing. (It's the name of the family who founded the winery, but when did facts ever matter to that bunch?) I believe Mr. Trump will skip his weekly Mar-a-Lago excursion to go to Manhattan and scream at his spouse.

Besides, I can think of far more appropriate wines for a luncheon featuring the first president's wife to refuse to live in the White House, and the wineries who make them will happily package them in an attractive 55-gallon drum. In the wine trade, we refer to this sort of packaging as "the single-serving size."

Eat, run to bathroom, vomit, repeat...

republican women are special. no doubt about it

"Be a dear, will you, and pass the Pride Mountain Viognier." - Hoytie Toytie

Well, at least Melania had to show up at the People's House for this affair.

Their true arrogance shines like the guilding in the palace.

It's probably only a daytrip.

She is such an embarrassment. But look what she agreed to get married to.

while that wife of his was out of the room?

Nobody cares.
