I remember the criticism that George Bush took for constantly heading to Crawford to clear brush, heck it made that one guy's movie!

So I think it'll be fun to talk about Michelle's worldly travel adventures, all funded by ALL OF US!!!

So this week Michelle is taking her mom and kids to her third trip to Communist China. I wish them safe travels. Oh unfortunately we won't be able to know what they are doing because she BANNED THE PRESS!

Of course she DESERVES these elaborate vacations, after all her job is just so stressful!

  • by the way, got a link? i would like to know what i am supposed to be angry about.

    like it or not, the first lady represents you to people in other countries. i could think of a few more people i would be more embarrassed about representing me on the world stage.

    I have full confidence in your searching abilities. Hint: It is a top news story on just about every main stream media outlet.

    Hope that helps!

    exactly! The world laughed at us for 8 years because we elected a president with a hick-drawl who couldn't reliably read words from a page.

    Funny how Michelle tries to talk about income disparity and other supposedly important things while staying in an $8400/night suite.

    You can make that argument. I'd counter with the argument that her mom and kids don't represent me anywhere.

    The following is a quote from the article you posted:

    Ordinary Chinese who have met the American first lady have described her in media reports as approachable and friendly, and the hotel staffer agreed. 'The first lady is gracious, and the girls are lovely,' he said.

    Sounds like she's doing quite well representing the US. The 'source' is unnamed and sounds petty.

    And... you're really reaching here man. First you go off on the first lady for staying in a fancy hotel... then, because there really isn't much there to attack... you shift your focus to her mother. If the only way to attack your president is to be critical of his mother-in-law... then I would suggest you have got a really good president. Congratulations.

    The article was speaking of her psychotic and ungrateful mother.

    And I criticize the President, but they are all the same, so what's the point?

    Then you offered a misleading thread title.

    Not at all.

    New article was added to illustrate the leaches that vacation on the taxpayer dime.
  • leeches.

    i guess barbara bush got no perks when george w, the most free spending president in years, was in office eh?

    was she a leech?

    or is it just because, like in most cases, it is obama we are talking about?

    i am sure ron paul would make is mother in law pay for her own fucking diplomatic trip/vacation...

    Ron Paul's mother in law would probably not attend. You obviously haven't really followed Ron Paul.

    But nice attempt at deflection.

    no it is not deflecting.

    you did not answer my question.

    Barbara Bush was a First Lady, she still has secret service protection, by law.

    Michelle Obama's mom is a nobody.
  • this is because it is a democrat we are talking about. just admit it.

    michelle's mom gets secret service protection at the moment too.

    you calling michelle's mom a "nobody" is insulting. she is the mother of the first lady.

    i think it is probably a good thing that obama's mom is dead, because she is not around to hear the hate the right wing in this country would throw at her.

    Lol.

    I despised George Bush more than Obama. They are all the same to me, try that crap with someone that believes there's a difference in the two parties.

    did you now? i do not recall a single time you said anything about the traveling and such that all of us had to pay for back then.

    and no they are not exactly the same. if they were the same we would be at war with russia right now. bush's terrible decision to go into iraq has insured that we are not going to go to war with russia. yesterday obama dissed russia by calling them merely "a regional power", while bush would have drummed up the fear that we were in immediate danger. sometimes a good leader will show restraint.

    seem to remember several of his family members were VERY well compensated during the campaign.
