President Obama has defended the jeans he wore to the All-Star game where he through out the first pitch. Some criticized the President for the unfashionable jeans and called them "mom jeans." Meredith Vieira asked President Barack Obama to defend the jeans. She asked, "You are married to one of the most fashionable women in the world. Do you want to defend the pants?”
President Obama says the jeans are comfortable and he's not 20.
Replied Obama, "Michelle, she looks fabulous. I am a little frumpy. Up until a few years ago, I only had four suits. She used to tease me because they would get really shiny."
"I hate to shop," he then added. "Those jeans are comfortable, and for those of you who want your president to look great in his tight jeans, I'm sorry - I'm not the guy. It just doesn't fit me. I'm not 20."
The other people unhappy with the President's All-Star game outfit are Chicago Cubs fans.
