*snip*
Through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) we obtained the mission expense records and passenger manifests for the Africa trip, which yielded a cost of $424,142 for the flight and crew alone. Other expenses, such as off-flight food, transportation, security, etc. were not included.
*snip*
Not so with the First Ladys jaunt to Spain the previous year. Judicial Watch has been investigating this vacation as well, but weve been stonewalled in our efforts to get the records. We asked for the documents last year (in August) but the Obama administration hasnt bothered to produce one document. As a result, we were forced to file a lawsuit on March 5, 2012, in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia against the United States Air Force.
Specifically, were after the following records pursuant to our August 25, 2011, FOIA request:
I. All records concerning mission taskings of First Lady Michelle Obamas August 2010 trip to Spain;
II. All records concerning transportation costs for Mrs. Obamas August 2010 trip to Spain; and
III. All passenger manifests (DD-2131) for Mrs. Obamas August 2010 trip to Spain.
Per usual, were getting the runaround.

a Muslim connection to this trip.

Can someone please tell her how to dress like a First Lady?
Way too much skin showing, no bra, skintight pants, not to mention the ever-present slouch....

Just a few words.
Obama and his pal Holder are hiding Justice Department records that have been subpoenaed by the friggin Congress.
The CONGRESS of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA
If they withold subpoenaed records from Congress do you really believe they are going to produce records for Breitbart?
Why don’t you wish for immortality? Yu would have a better chance of getting it.

The pursuit of truth and justice is ALWAYS noble
and necessary in the face of rabid tyranny. Demons,
deceivers, parasites and despots do what they will;
so do the righteous, patriotic and honorable.

PS .. If you read the article, you’ll see
that Judicial Watch is suing, not Breitbart.

Newt's wife is a class act and would be a wonderful First Lady in comparison to the wookie we have now.
