Daily Mail ^ | 8/24/11 | Tamara Abraham

The Obamas' summer break in Martha's Vineyard has already been branded a PR disaster after the couple arrived four hours apart on separate government jets. But according to new reports, this is the least of their extravagances. White House sources today claimed that the First Lady has spent $10million of U.S. taxpayers' money on vacations alone in the past year. Branding her 'disgusting' and 'a vacation junkie', they say the 47-year-old mother-of-two has been indulging in five-star hotels, where she splashes out on expensive massages and alcohol. The 'top source' told the National Enquirer: 'It's disgusting. Michelle is taking advantage

Since so many of Barry’s “advisers” are along on this vacay I

wouldn’t doubt that we’re paying for the trip.

You know, he gets a five minute briefing from them and then

it’s off to the ice cream store.

Meanwhile, the DC eunuchs are still looking for their gonads with both hands and a mirror; NADA found yet.

Our founding fathers are rolling in their graves; count on it.

Like someone else said...I think the coke is Obama's drug of choice. Michelle is the drunken ride in this two person carnival...lol.

Those of us who've known re-habbed heroin addicts know that the ice cream jones is prevalent.

The very heavy drinking is not confined to the prima diva moocher and her consort, Biden and the top advisors have exceeded the excesses of WJC's era. One of the open secrets in DC. If the total liquor bill were to be made public The Enquirer would have field day. You just can't hide the heavy deliveries of booze. Too many photos of all the tipsy tipplers to keep them all hidden.

While I sort of agree, the NE did break the John Edwards scandal as I recall.

“FOB” refers to Friends of Bill (Clinton), I believe.

Also they include as vacation time the days Bush spent at his ranch, even though it was more a case of moving his office out of the White House to the ranch.

Not only did it cost very little, but he entertained foreign dignitaries there, etc.

(he also cut a little brush)

Bush “vacationed” at the Camp David Presidential Retreat. The Obama’s vacation in mansions and 5-star hotels at taxpayer expense, while the media pretends not to notice

And you know, I don't begrudge the president an occasional round of golf, or a night out with his wife, or a vacation. The man is (probably) human.

But His-and-Her private jets to a million dollar getaway in Martha's Vineyard - on the taxpayer's nickel - is hard to stomach. Too bad that the only MSM outlet that bothered to notice is overseas.

Shades of Obama’s dad (the drunken, drug laden, womanizer, & woman abuser), Idi Amin and of course, Obama’s icon, Kaddafi of Libya!!!

And don’t forget Obama’s campaigning on the American tax payer dollar for the Muslim/communist murderer, Odinga.

Odinga had a pact with the Muzzies to turn the country
Muslim if he won. When he lost he caused riots that caused thousands of to be slain and untold destruction of property.

Not surprised one bit. Biden reminds me of one of those aging bar flies that always tried to hit on me and my girlfriends back in our college days....lol.

Bush “vacationed” at the Camp David Presidential Retreat.

...as well as the Crawford Ranch where he has hosted countless foreign dignitaries during his presidency...Vlad Putin being one of the most noteworthy.
