Michelle Obama will feel our pain in Spain but only at $2859 a night

"The pain in Spain falls mainly on the vain".

After Obama declared in a July 27, 2010 interview with ABC's Elizabeth Leamy, “We’re not that far removed from what most Americans are going through," we find out that Michelle Obama has booked a very expensive vacation to Spain accompanied by "long-time family friends". The liberal media that did decide to cover it calls it a "private" vacation, but since when have the Obama's used their own money?

The trip will not include Obama and Malia. And strangely, the trip will coincide with Obama's birthday because he will be visiting his CEO office at the auto plants he owns in Michigan and taking a trip to Chicago to attend Trinity Church with William Ayers.

I have a few questions.

I guess the taxpayer will fund the trip because she is visiting the King of Spain?

I understand how the French people felt about Marie Antoinette living large while they starved.

I have a friend who feels the need to leave her position as a consultant in a much needed area of human services because much of her work comes from the federal government, and she can no longer accept being a guest speaker at conferences of federal employees where everyone is staying at 4 and 5 star hotels and living it up at taxpayer expense.

It's a shame, because she has a lot to offer in an area where good people like her are badly needed.

$2800 (a nite) is a small price to pay to keeping Obama out of Washington D.C...

I suspect that the WH staff is either afraid to counsel the Obamas about their foolish behavior OR they try but neither BO nor MO listen. Really, can ANYONE be this stupid! You’d have to be TRYING to tick off as many Americans as possible with these in-your-face, gauche nouveau-riche stunts.

It would be, except for the fact that Obama isn't going. This is for Michelle and one daughter. That's why they only need 30 rooms. If the King were going, they would need an entourage of 500 people, as he has had on other presidential trips to Europe.
