Why didn't Michelle O spend our $380,000 + in the U.S. to stimulate our economy?
This just pisses me off.

The entitlement of this president and his family infuriate me. Why don't the Obama's ever do the right thing by the people? Why vacation in Spain when she could be spending all this money here in the US and providing US jobs and tax revenue?

By the time you add up all the money that would be spent by the people in the 70+ hotel rooms we are paying for, not to mention the press people and the tourists it would attract, it would be multi-millions. Why aren't they on a budget, just like the rest of us, especially the unemployed?

She could have bought a whole shitload of books with $380,000 of our tax money.

And when she was done reading them, she could have given them to the local public library.

So someone's else's kid's education could be enriched, not just Queen Michele's pampered whelps.

Nope. Why is spending $380,000 for a vacation in Spain for the US First Lady partisan? How much Spanish culture are they getting on the sectioned off beach?

If she wants her daughter to learn Spanish, she could take her to El Paso and pump up their economy at the same time!

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 265178

If I had decided to use the company jet to take my wife and family on a "vacation" to Spain, I would have been asked to pay the flight costa and/or been fired upon their return. As this was a "private" vacation and not related to her official duties, either the Obamas or the Democratic party should pay the cost of Air Force 2 while both in the air and on the ground.
She does indeed consider herself above the masses. A recent newspaper article discussed how she dislikes Jill Biden for not showing her (Marie Antoinette Obama) enough "reverence" when Jill is in the presence of her highness.
This vacation was a form of reparations for the mistreatment of her distant relatives by the evil white slave owners. You think she would reward these crackers by spending money to benefit them?
She and the Muslim-In-Chief were both brought up to hate America and the ideals we hold dear. They want to "spread the wealth" by taking it from those who have and giving it to those who have not. Isn't that the basic concept of Communism?

Because Europe is more "Sophisticated" in their eyes...you fuckin peon biotch.....don't you remember that when Barky was elected it was the first time ever she was proud of her country?...she doesn't care for you piss ants gripin about her husband and just wants to go someplace where she can have a bunch of briandead socialist morans kiss her ass properly because they are light years ahead of you redneck racist aholes..aside from that they are deadass broke and the economy is collapsing so she wants to see your future and sample some of the fine pastries and exotic meats that she'll be chowing down on while you bleed out your eyes eating gov't spam. You have the nerve to bitch about that? While she's got to worry about which 5 year old's birthday cake to dress like and the fashion implications involved with that?...selfish pricks!

Yeah, another vacation in America ain't good enough for them now they are elites?

Why not BBQ some pork at the Whitehouse and call it good? Why not vacation in the gulf coast if it is so safe now. Watch, they'll soon be down in the gulf making a big show of them spending time there. But, their our leaders and I, like 99% of the sheeple will float along admiring them.

Can you imagine the media outrage if a Conservative had made the "mongrel race" comment? We would have had multi-day cable specials featuring the state of racism in America hosted by muff-muncher Maddow, out-of-touch Olbermann, mad-as-a-hatter Matthews, or my favorite loon....Ed Schultz.
Jesse and Al would be organizing protests in major American cities, screaming how racist America still is.

Michelle Obama headed off for a $375,000 taxpayer-paid vacation in Marbella, Spain with Sasha in tow, apparently in the misguided belief that this place has the kind of cachet suitable to prance around in her unbecoming but expensive fashions. (This is her sixth vacation since March, and two more are scheduled before the kids return to school.)
