Inside story of Michelle's trip First lady took Spain vacation with 'a dear friend' whose father recently died

Michelle Obama and daughter Sasha returned from Spain on Sunday, a vacation at a lavish hotel on the Mediterranean coast that triggered her first controversy since becoming first lady. I'm told she made the trip because she promised one of her closest friends, a longtime Chicago pal who just lost her father, she would spend time with her.

Kneepads media. The WH spin machine fails.

-MOTHER DAUGHTER

-OFFICIAL KING VISIT

-HER DYING FRIEND SHE PROMISED TO SPEND TIME WITH

30-60? other people and an official visit and overseas publications saying she met with Saudi Sheiks.So why couldn't Michelle Obama take this grieving friend to lunch in DC and save us taxpayers a lot of money?

SHE LIES! Nice us tax payers have to foot the bill so Michelle Antoinette can “console” her friend. What spending a few days in Chicago was not good enough?

Spin. Either trouble in the marriage, or planning the October Surprise with Wahabbists.

Yeah when this latest explanation is laughed at at the OBVIOUS lie it is; what will the next lie be?

Michelle wanted to teach Bo the dog OR SASHA: Spanish and she HAD to wear top of the line designer dresses and close beaches to do this?

All of this news is bull..The Michaelle and her handlers are trying to make it look like something it isn't.Make her look like a saint taking her friend to Spain.Also the other story they put out there is this trip was more than a vacation it was work related..They are trying to clean up the mess of her using our money to take her and her friends on a vacation on our dollar..

. . . and 35 other "close" friends, various attendants, a bevy of secret service agents, and fawning papparazzi? Give me a break.

BS

Because:

1) No pictures of her
2) "This was planned weeks ago"
3) "spending time" with her does not equate to lavish Spanish luxury hotels

This is spin trying to deflect the negative reaction.

Why do we as taxpayers; have to spend money for these crooks vacations with their grifter friends?
If Michelle wants to spend time with a dying friend; the White House has many very nice rooms they could sit and visit comfortably.

Lynn Sweet would be happy to carry MO’s luggage, but since they had someone smarter to do that, she wrote this white-washed tripe instead.
Sure, Lynn, we all take our bereaved friends on a taxpayer-funded, lavish junket to Spain to make them feel better. Sheesh...it’s hard to tell who is most out of touch with America, the Obamacrats or the state-run media.

I agree...Marriage problems....Obama is in Chicago with the husband of Michelle's best friend. That hubby is Obama's best friend.

If everything was a-okay, they would have all gone to Chicago or Camp David.

What hurts...The girls were used as cover.
