WASHINGTON--Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, is suing the U.S. Air Force to force the disclosure of records surrounding the cost of an official trip First Lady Michelle Obama took earlier this year to to South Africa and Botswana with her mother, daughters Malia and Sasha and Leslie and Avery Robinson, the children of her brother, Craig.
"Judicial Watch is investigating the total cost of the trip to the taxpayers in the face of a ballooning federal debt and a sinking economy," the organization said in a statement. The lawsuit was filed because the Air Force "failed to produce" the requested records after a Freedom of Information Act request, Judicial Watch said.

Foks....I’m not being mean. Judicial Watch has been around for at least maybe 10 years. Have they every proscuted a case? Or at least an important case?
Just asking.
Thank you.
All the luxury trips during these hard times that started when the deems took over the house and senate in 2007 should be looked at in relation to all the sitting congress critters and the 0bama grifters should be looked at. It is outrageous that these nincompoops are so tone deaf..if I hear that jackass one more time say we all have to have “skin in the game”I am going to scream. Everyone but those grifters have to have skin in the game..and when there is no more skin then what??
Do we pay for that worthless over sized butt to be hauled around?
P.S.
Let me rephrase that:
Folks....Im not being mean. Judicial Watch has been around for at least maybe 10 years. Have they every proscuted a case? Or at least an important case AND WON?
Thank you.
Who paid for her trip to Spain last year? I couldn’t believe it when I heard she took a whole planeload of hangers-on with her to Spain, where they rented a huge portion of a luxury resort just for her entourage. Who the heck is paying for this, I wondered.
Judicial Watch has won a recent victory in DC federal court to have the Secret Service open up their Obama White House visitor’s log.
Good grief...
proscuted - prosecuted
It is getting time for the sack for me.
Thank you.
I am glad/happy to hear that.
This all needs to be made public record,the cost this hateful,scowling,America bashing Retard has added to our charge card,great 2012 election advertisements.
Moola Moochelle.
Thank you so much for that information. It makes me feel good.
I think a trip to Africa would be particularly hard to snag the Obamas on after the Bush precedent:
Yup, an article on moochelle and one on obesity seem related.
At least the Bush daughter rolled up her sleeves and dug in to some hard work with injured children...can’t blame Mom for supporting her daughter. It doesn’t sound like a pleasure jaunt to me.
Personally, I don't care if they ever win a case. The left likes to file nuisance lawsuits against just about anything "conservative", I say we do it to them. JW serves that purpose for me.
Allow me to pile on. Who’s paying for the hanger-on mother-in-law who is a permanent resident of 1600 Penna Ave? How does she become an official member of the immediate family? She goes on the same junkets that Moochie goes on. I can’t remember anyone of that relationship doing the same thing from FDR forward. Dogs, children, fine. M-I-Ls not so much. sd
