Barneys Window -- Anti-McCain?

There's one store potential First Lady Cindy McCain may want to think twice about before dropping any of her beer heir millions ... Barneys New York.
Obama and McCain
The high-end NYC department store's windows currently feature paintings of all the First Ladies of yore and include portraits of both Michelle Obama and Mrs. McCain. While all the works by artist Laurie Munn were made to the women's general likeness, Cindy's looks uniquely ghoulish.

So the question -- by putting the pics up, has Barneys not-so-subtly endorsed Barack Obama? We contacted the store -- a little defensive.

A rep said the the pics are an artist's interpretation. We pressed and mentioned it was Barneys decision to plaster the pics in its windows. The rep told us to go talk to the artist, adding, "We do not take any political stance."

79. Cindy McCain looks like she bought her skin 1 size too small and Michelle Obama needs to get her hair did to cover up that bald spot on her hairline. That being said, I have nothing against either woman. Cindy McCain can dress her ass off and always looks good where Michelle Obama may need some help in that department. Cindy looks like a zombie at times and Michelle looks like she just woke up from a bender a lot of the time.

There, I was able to get my point across without offending either lady for their race. YOU NIMRODS SEE HOW EASY THAT WAS. Leave the hate at the door people. We can have fun with this without making matters worse and believe me, when people start faking attacks by black men, its gotten worse. WE THE PEOPLE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. Leave the hate at the door.

80. Michele needs to go back to the SOUTH SIDE of CHICAGO and F@@K IT UP MORE..

CHICAGO

Body count in the last six months:
- 292 murdered in Chicago,
- 221 killed in Iraq.

Our leadership in Illinois: Sen. Barack Obama, Sen. D ick Durbin,
Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., Gov. Rod Blogojevich, House leader Mike Madigan,
Atty. Gen. Lisa Madigan, Mayor Richard Daley .....all Democrats.

Thank you for the combat zone in Chicago.

Of course they're all blaming each other.

Can't blame Republicans, they're aren't any!

State pension fund $44 Billion in debt, worst in country.

Cook County (Chicago) sales tax 10.25%, highest in country.

Chicago school system one of the worst in country.

This is the political machine that Obama says he comes from in Illinois.

Now Obama says he's gonna "fix" Washington politics?

81. If they had Michelle looking like that the store would be closed down by the secret service. Or should I say the KGB after Obama gets into office, we already know we can yell for the next 4 years that they stole the election this time thanks to ACORN. Of course that will only last until the liberal congress and Obama shut down free speech. Welcome to the last days of constitutional freedom. Tell your grandkids what it used to be like to be a free nation. Now all we have are people running everything who only care about their power and ideas, but not what is best for the country or the real meaning of the Constitution.

83. I think Cindy should be re-done. Michelle looks vibrant and happy, Cindy looks like crypt keeper, link post 1 or 2 said.

She also looks kinda drunk and bald.

89. 18. Well atleast us black women don't have to nip,tuck, stab, inject, remove, replace, lift, and snap things to out bodies to look presentable.

No wonder most of your women want lips like ours, hips like ours, ass and breast like ours and guess what we have it all naturally. So while most of your girlfrends and wives are walking around looking like dollar store barbie's we sit back and laugh with our phat asses.

90. Let's be honest here. Cindy McCain looks as if her face is permanently fixed in a "I'm with Mr. McStinky" expression. Tell the poor replica of a Barbie to lay off the knife and Botox. Hell the photo looks just like the frightening bitch. I have to send my kids out of the room when she's on so they won't have nightmares.
