When was the last time you had a vacation, much less on someone else's dime?

She only wished she looked as good as Marie Antionette or Madonna...

Terrific column.

One of the comments suggested that comparing M0 to Marie Antoinette was unfair to the French queen.

Listening to a radio station in Chicago on the internet. Mentioned that taxpayers are paying for Obama’s trip to Chicago because he visited the Ford plant.

I suppose we will pay for Shelly’s since she is visiting the King?

How did the Obamas get this rich? They couldn’t have afforded this 2 years ago (if you believe his financial disclosures).

To be clear, what the Obamas do with their money is one thing

Do we know who her long time friend in Spain is?? Something isn't quite right.

And Obama is with the girls on the View and Oprah.

Something ain't right.

Marie’s partying off the commoners’ dime was cut short.

It’s good to be king, if just for a while
To be there in velvet, yeah, to give ‘em a smile
It’s good to get high, and never come down
It’s good to be king of your own little town

Yeah, the world would swing if I were king
Can I help it if I still dream time to time

It’s good to be king and have your own way
Get a feeling of peace at the end of the day
And when your bulldog barks and your canary sings
You’re out there with winners, yeah, it’s good to be king

Yeah I’ll be king when dogs get wings
Can I help it if I still dream time to time

It’s good to be king and have your own world
It helps to make friends, it’s good to meet girls
A sweet little queen who can’t run away
It’s good to be king, whatever it pays

Excuse me if I have some place in my mind
Where I go time to time

Its Good To Be King Lyrics
Artist: Tom Petty

“When was the last time you had a vacation”

July 1999. Right now we are helping family members through this recession.

Nobody else is willing to give us a dime to go to Spain.

Maybe I can apply for a government grant?

That poll on the front page of the NYD needs work.

“Rich Girl, Poor Country
Do you think Michelle Obama should ditch high life for more down-to-Earth image?

Yes, they tell people to save, yet they spend, spend, spend.

No, she promotes positive living and the American dream of prosperity.”

yes 37

no 63

Git er done, folks!

Ouch! This one stings. I can only imagine the reaction in the thin-skinned White House. They go ballistic when they read stuff like this.

This gives us insight as to why the French Revolution devolved into the Reign of Terror.

Like the French aristocracy of the time, the Obama’s have earned nothing and contributed to nothing to society in their lives and live lavishly off the labors of the ‘peasants’ who they hold in such contempt.

Wow. Hard hitting article in a not-conservative publication.

btw, the photo galleries are nauseating. Wonder why the Obamas think of themselves as "celebrities?"

Ninnies.

According to the Early Show this morning, the Queen said she would pay for her own room and shopping.

Mighty white of her, as Dirty Harry would say.

LET THEM EAT SPAM! The motto of the Øbamaelitists.

2004. Mmmm, but the cake is delish!

One could argue she is combining business (diplomatic - meeting with the royals) with pleasure, and we don't know, maybe she did scale it down.
