Re the brown shoes with the blue suit:
Geert Wilders is, among other things, a Dutch or, more accurately, a European, Paul Revere. The propaganda war that Geert Wilders is conducting requires him to travel by plane, and to pack sparingly. Under such crimped circumstances, where two pairs of shoes would have been one pair too many, he chose brown.
His war is crimping, Dolores Haze. Surely you can understand.

A good point; he's from the Netherlands and they may not even conform to that rule of dress for men.
When the Baron left, he took very little, but I made sure his shoes went with what he was going to wear...in fact, I was annoyed with the disreputable state of his briefcase.
Yeah, those are pickty things, Mr. Fitzgerald, but women notice them. I wasn't going to say anything about it all ----at least until the Baron got home. And when he does, and sees this "gaffe", he'll be sooo happy
Why? Because if a world leader like Geert Wilders can make that mistake, well, my heavens. Doesn't that give tthe Baron permanent leave to roundly ignore my own sartorial nitpicks in the future?
(Besides, as women well know, Mr. Wilders will not be held to account for this. As any wife will tell you, it's MRS. Wilders' mistake.)

The previous comments distracted me from what I'd originally planned to say: the Baron told me on the phone that he was impressed with how far ahead of Virginia Nashville was in terms of recognizing the dangers we face from Islam. Nashville has given him a lot to think about concerning the obliviousness here.
Oh, and he also reported he'd had the opportunity to meet Ms.Bynum and that she was "extremely attractive". Indeed she is.
I'm glad this event is going so well. At least that's the opinion of my co-blogger. I hope Mr.Wilders concurs.

As an American Women...let me just say I could give a rip less what color shoes this man wears or for that matter the color of his skin...TRUTH is... ALL I care about ..and He tells it! May the LORD Bless him and ALL he is trying to do. Thank you Geert!

Aye, dymphna nymphet, Glory be to God for Pict-y, "bony, blotchy,"* dappled and piebald things and "perforated pied"** athletic shoes and tennis rackets** tied up with Hickty-Pickty*** catgut strings. I would'na steer ye wrong, Lassie.
An' let's raise a glass, every lad an' lass, or a cup o' kitman yet that we may see many a Muslim kilt, as in our Welsh and English cousin (said to be a good "provider," but not so good a povodyr****) who inscribed on a tree in 1760, "Daniel Boone Kilt A Bar."
