Very well said...totally agree...
It’s questioning the judgement of the parents...
and the compensation due the tax payers for that judgement...
Again!
Just the usual poor indulgent parenting cementing the sense of entitlement in their child.
And I firmly believe in the doctrine that non-adult children of political figures should be left out of political discourse.
BUT, spending bucket loads of Taxpayer dollars for such an extravagant trip is abusing the "HANDS OFF THE KIDS" privilege!
Obummer and Moochie should be arrested for child abuse.
Sure, I was 13 once and I guess I can understand her wanting a break from parents of the likes of Barry and The Queen. But, sending your 13-year-old on her own vacation? To MEXICO?!
Beam me up, Scotty. If voters actually believe this Marxist POTUS is a "man of the people," you can color me an OLDgeezer because it's obvious that I'm the one who's completely out of touch.
Quote heard ... Obama gonna pay for my home and gas bill.
Ben Franklin has to be spinning in his grave, cause he put out the warning.
Well said, and you’re the first I’ve seen to point out that particular hypocrisy.
the cost associated with the necessity of sending 25 agents for protection in a time of belt-tightening for most Americans, is, in fact, newsworthy.

BINGO! and that is the reason they wanted to keep it secret, just like they tried to hide moochelle’s Aspen vacation.
I hate to say it, but would you put it past these cretins to put their child in play for a sympathy vote in November? I hope and pray she will be ok, and that she grows into being someone much better than either of her worthless parents.
Well, my kid at the ripe age of 14 went on two trips to Italy in six months: one to visit his father who was mid-deployment; the other with other kids and two Catholic priests on a pilgrimage...
I wish I had his mom and dad!
Umm...what kinda coffee is in the mod lounge? Just wonderin’...
If the Obamas were so concerned about the safety of their child, perhaps the child should not be going to a third world nation craphole like Mexico. Why not Disneyworld?
This is not about safety, it is about control and censorship. How much is this trip for a 13-year old costing us?
You know the Mexican government had to agree to this .... what were THEY thinking?
How many 13 year olds get to go on "Spring Break" to begin with?
With the U.S. economy hurting as bad as it is, shouldn't they set an example by vacationing in this country, and spending the money here? (especially since it's our money!)
Malia Obama also took along 12 friends. Did they pay their own way, or did we pick up the tab for them as well?
Details about the trip, like the itinerary, should be off limits as that’s a security risk. As I understand it, that’s the problem with a lot of the articles. They discussed where Malia was going to stay.
On the other hand, I think it’s fair game to discuss the costs and wisdom of such trips. For the life of me, I can’t understand how a parent would permit such a trip, especially with all the recent drug war chaos in Mexico.
I knew President Obama was disconnected from reality. After all, he’s a liberal, but sending his 13 year old daughter to Mexico? Crazy!
Beck just said he sent his seven year-old son on vacation to Syria...ROTFLMAO!
