Media Scrubs Malia Obama Vacation Story (Ignoring a Travel Advisory is not "vital news")
Fox News ^ | 3/20/2012 | DYLAN BYERS

Posted on 03/20/2012 8:45:58 AM PDT by tobyhill

The AFP, the Huffington Post and other websites have scrubbed a report about first daughter Malia Obama's Spring Break vacation.

But on Monday night, the story had been removed from those sites .The AFP page for the story now links to a story titled "Senegal music star Youssou Ndour hits campaign trail," as does the Yahoo page. The Huffington Post page now links directly back to the Huffington Post homepage. The Daily Mail, Telegraph, and Australian stories now lead to 404 error pages, reading "page not found." The International Business Times story also links to the IBT homepage, though a version of the original story still exists here.

I’m sure they’re safe. After all they have the best security the American taxpayers can buy.

the White House has asked news outlets not to report on or photograph the Obama children when they are not with their parents and there is no vital news interest.

The Obama's p*ssing away MORE taxpayer dollars on vacations in this economy IS a vital news interest.

Though the fact the president allows his Jr High School aged daughter to take spring break in Mexico is of interest to many, as well.

It’s kind of interesting that the Lame Stream Media had no problem reporting when the Bush twins went to Africa, Europe or even the local bars.

With every breath they take while in office,
they cost us more and more money.

Vote them out, ASAP!

another case whereby the POTUS displays his often used poor judgment.

Did the taxpayer pay for the entire group or did her classmates’ parents pay for their own. I do have a hunch

Sandy Fluke. Who else?

The discussion should be:

Q. What kind of parent would arm a country's criminals and then send their daughter to that country to vacay?

A. The kind that wants to confiscate the school lunch you packed, and give your young daughter free condoms...

Was Fluke there to chaperone? There was a point where the pres_ent made a call to her to thank her, or was she still on her (paid or unpaid via taxpayers) trip with her boyfriend. Trips can get expensive these days quickly. Should one us, at FReeRepublic, request an all expenses paid trip up to the hill to question the expense? Ironic ... one might say.

Well, it seemed to be "vital news" when the media crawled all over it in the beginning, until their lord and master obama ordered them to "heel".

Obama has a history of using his kids as election props, and I think Mexico was choses by him as the girls vacation spot to endure himself to Hispanics.

Lagging polls try mens' souls....

As vile as I think this is, I wouldn't be surprised if the Obama’s “talk” with their daughter consisted of “be sure to use a contraceptive” rather than “we want you to wait until you're married”. Heck, the way they speak so fondly of abortion, they probably have already chosen a guy to “do the deed”.

Dear God, I hope they vacay!

Here's the alternative:

On Dec 21, 2012, Obama will have had a little over a month to stew in his humiliating, crushing and unexpected defeat at the hands of the American people.

He’ll still be Commander in Chief.

He’ll still have the nuclear ‘football’. Just sitting there. Staring at him. Taunting him. Daring him...

The Obamas act like they are ordinary folks, but actually they are elitist, out-of-touch hypocrites.

Isn’t this the fourth luxurious vacation Malia has had in the last 7 months (Martha’s Vineyard in August on a separate plane, Hawaii for Christmas/New Year’s-— for over two weeks on a separate plane, Colorado for skiing in February, and now Mexico for Spring Break)?

How many luxurious vacations have you or your children had in the last 7 months?

Not to worry Skeeter! As Obama's mentioned in the past, he obviously has them on contraceptives to prevent them from being "burdened with a child."

28 SS agents vs. a few hundred thousand (or more) cartelistas running around Mehico. Hope she's REALLY secure. Well, she IS one of Holder's people, so she probably fits right in down there.

Just maybe she is under the protection of the drug kingpins that have been doing business with Holder's men.

One would have to pray the military would disobey the order (be it unlawful) at that point. A prayer for such to be the case.

Just what is little Malia’s vacation costing the US taxpayers and are here 12 friends and presumably their adult chaperons also traveling on the tax payers dime? When the high cost of gasoline means that many Americans will not be able to afford to take a vacation this year, it is a slap in the face when little Malia and her friends from that tony rich kids school can cavort at a plush Mexican resort likely paid for in large part by US taxpayers.
