Give me a break!!! Well not that I would expect old GW to ever invite me to the White House but if he does they will have more than flip flops to talk about.... :q:q:q:q....
CHICAGO, July 15 (UPI) -- When some of the Northwestern University women's lacrosse team appeared in the White House in flip-flops it raised some eyebrows back home in Chicago.
About half of the national championship team wore flip-flops for photo opportunity with President George Bush Tuesday.
However, when the photograph was published many of the baby boomer mothers were appalled that their daughters chose causal footwear for a formal occasion -- even though these flip-flops are not the rubber flip flops purchased in discount stores.
"As somebody who is 52 years old, it mortified me," one of the team member's mother told the Chicago Tribune. "I don't go out of the house without pantyhose on."

Flip-flops at White House Fashionable?
At what point does a parent need to correct their child’s fashion attire? This may be one. Members for the national championship Northwestern University women’s lacrosse team were invited to the White House to meet President Bush on Tuesday. For the photo-op, four of the nine young women in the front row with the president wore flip-flops. Despite the footwear being the nation’s hottest trend, flip-flops shouldn’t be worn when someone is invited to meet the most powerful person in the country. Does this give new meaning to the politcal term “flip-flopper?” On another fashion note, MommyCool does note that President Bush wears cowboy boots with a tuxedo, but that’s another story.
