With the exception of Secret Service protection and maybe a secretary, there should be no official expenditures for the First Spouse. If the President wants to pay for their spouse to travel or do anything as a hobby, it should not be done with public money. Social secretaries can be hired to run the White House. Does anyone think Bill Clinton, (I pray we never find out for sure), would help run the day to day affairs of the White House?

First Spouses do not and should not exist on the taxpayers budget. They live a life of pampered existence just being in the White House. They got to where they are because they picked the right person to sleep with, period. That does not justify the American taxpayers paying hundreds of millions for separate vacations or pet projects.

The Worst Lady (aka: mooch-elle) should answer for her crimes against the People. Her theft and other insults need brought to justice. Her trial should be televised.
