How much is this spring beak costing us?
Just a few hundred thousand dollars. Drop in the ocean when seen in the light of our 17 trillion dollar debt.
I don’t know why they are writing stories on the President’s kids. We were furious when they wrote stories on the Bush girls (before 18). I think we are better served if we just bash the President and his beard.
Sasha and Malia Obamas will both grow up to be ‘community organizers’, and look just like FW.
Love the way Jeannie DeAngelis writes. Great article! Thank you.
I have to prepare my tax returns this weekend. Looks like I’ll be throwing things and cursing the whole time after reading this.
RE: I don’t know why they are writing stories on the President’s kids.
I don’t care if the President uses HIS MONEY for these vacations. The fact that he uses OUR money for this at a time when he claims there’s no money even for touring the White House ought to open our eyes to how our tax dollars are being used.
not to worry no doubt the obamas are self righteously claiming to be “paying their own way” by reimbursing the gubmint about $3000 of the $million dollar boondoggle for the equivalent cost of an all-inclusive vacation
and the posse (gad must the obama wymyn always vacation with a posse?) is “paying their own way” too. Like $400 airfare for flying Air Force 2?
Meanwhile Camp David sits silent and still
“... talk the talk about sharing, fairness, and self-sacrifice, in their own lives they exhibit none of these qualities.”
That’s exactly what regime leaders sound like...wait about 10 to 15 yrs from now and see where those girls are...once Daddy O is out of office and things start coming out and he screwed the US — they won’t be so popular!
EDIT TO ADD:
Same principle applies to ALL Presidential kids’ vacations regardless of which political party they belong to.
Except for transportation and secret service, how do we know he is not paying. I am pretty sure the Obamas are paying the hotel bill for sure.
the kids are used as photo props when needed and used by mama obama to lecture us fat bitter lazy clinger selfish peasants about how to raise and feed our kids and how to teach them values
Like the campaign interviews with shelley about how “me and Baraq are raising our girls with southside Chicago values”
Hey, shelley no one asked wth are southside Chicago values?
DUCK and COVER?
It’s bad enough that there’s a nightclub scene for 13 to 17 year olds...but I really gagged when I read there’s a nightclub scene for tweens ages 9 to 13. Wow! Just wow!!
If this is kept up, we will have even more Lindsey Lohans in the world, and one of them is already enough.
God help us!!!
See post #2 above. Judicial Watch used the FOIA to determine that it was GOVERNMENT FUNDS used to pay for the vacation.
LODGINGS, AIRFARE, etc.
I agree with you. This is clearly using the girls to get at the parents. If we have a problem with the parents sending the girls on an expensive vacation using taxpayer money, focus the story on the parents. There are plenty of ways to criticize the parents for this without attacking the girls as being extravagant and aristocratic.
Because Bush never would have dreamed about spending government money like this on his kids
