The bill for the summer-work vacation of first lady Michelle Obama, accompanied to England and Italy by her daughters, mom, and staff, should easily top her entourage's 2010 trip to Spain that cost an eye-popping $467,000.
While the White House didn't provide cost estimates for the week-long visit to London, Milan, Venice, and Vincenza, Italy, the State Department put lodging costs for just a couple nights in Venice at $128,781, according to Free Beacon, and Air Force charges based on a 2012 document for flying her group on past overseas trips indicate that this one will hit $243,000.

Any reporting today on the 500 guest party Obamas paid for on their “own dime?” Or just another sit down and shut up, get with the program moment?

...and cheap for the two little Princesses.
I wonder if they’re spoiled (betting yes), and whether they’ll ever grow out of it.
To: Gamecock
And she doesn’t even appreciate any of it. But reporters using infantile non-words like “vacay” doesn’t help either.

I cannot stand the scowl on her face. It never goes away!

I wonder if theyre spoiled (betting yes), and whether theyll ever grow out of it. We'll be hearing about their resentment and anger for the next sixty or seventy years.

I presume this is either their money, or that it was appropriated by the Republican Congress.
Either way, can’t blame the Obamas.

Remember when a Presidential vacation involved going to a ranch and splitting logs and cutting brush?

I’m not buying it. This sounds way too cheap. I would put the total cost at 5x that amount. Nothing is too good for Mooch.
