Jet-setting first lady Michelle Obama has placed a great wall around her junket to China, denying press access while she racks up an $8,350-a-night bill at a swanky high-rise hotel a move that is already drawing barbs back home.
Her entourage which includes her daughters and mother are reportedly enjoying 24-hour butler service, a private steamroom and in-room dining at the Beijing Westin.
For the most part, Americans get that the president and first lady usually stay in well-appointed accommodations when they travel abroad, but the problem with doing it especially now is there are 50 million people on food stamps and weve been in a five- to six-year recession, and I think thats what upsets people more than anything, said Keith Appell, a Washington, D.C.-based Republican consultant.
Pundits are also questioning why she is not allowing press coverage.

Her flight home should be booked on Malaysian airlines. Thanks lbryce.
The surly daughter is not really there. Her mind is on the boys not allowed to get within 50 feet of her lustful body
Her face is a perpetual snarl
She is trouble, very bad news
She never flies with the president....... too dangerous
The fact that the millionsS of dollar$ for this VACATION is being forcibly extracted from our strapped, shrinking, puny bank accounts and transferred into the coffers of a far-way dictatorial COMMUNIST country is not getting enough attention.....particularly from the approving, fawning LSM.
If a vacation is urgently needed at this critical time for the over-worked, over-stressed Obama female quartette think how much those millions would benefit some AMERICAN private resorts in gorgeous settings with interesting, educational and restful sightseeing opportunities for Moochelle, granny and the kids.
Large and small private businesses are SHUTTERING all over this country....we can see it with our own eyes in our community's big malls, strip malls and Main Streets. It's appalling and frightening in the extreme.
If our First Family wants to vacation, think of the money they are pumping this week into the pockets of a murderous thug regime in China instead of going into the hands of American vacation areas surrounded by private entrepeneurial businesses (and mom-and-pop ancillary local stores, shoppes, restaurants, hotels and other ventures) which could use some of our taxpayers' million$ now being thrown with abandon into the hands of our enemie$ and their war machine.
This is all so insane.
I guess the fact that Washington DC and its suburban environs is now one of the most wealthy and thriving areas in our nation has BLINDED our pooh-bahs on the Potomac to the nearing-desperation economic conditions of small and medium private businesses plus mom-and-pop endeavors stretching across the fruited plain from sea to rusting sea.
I say that if it's too mundane, boring, and not "Grand Tour" enough to attract vacations in the USA by and for the free-spending Royal Family With Grand Entourage, the least the Obamas can do is vacation and rest up in their Chicago south side home for near-free...... and spread their discretionary vacation millions around to an American neighborhood that desperately could use it.
There's beautiful, awesome, educational and cultural things they could see and do along the Windy City's gorgeous lake front...with time left over to vist Bill and Bernadette Ayers, the Rev'rund Wright and all their old anarchist/communist hometown pals of the same stripe they're blowin' our money with in Beijing and in the shadows of the Great (oppressive) Wall of Berlin...oops. China.

“It is so important for information and ideas to flow freely over the internet and through the media,” Obama said told an audience of about 200 U.S. and Chinese students at Beijing’s prestigious Peking University.
“My husband and I are on the receiving end of plenty of questioning and criticism from our media and our fellow citizens, and it’s not always easy,” she added. “But I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.”
It's a trick question....
Ans: All of them.
“while she racks up an $8,350-a-night bill at a swanky high-rise hotel”
This is the ransom the taxpayers are paying for the Chinese to keep her there. If they added in the POS, her alleged spouse, I’d be happy to make it 80K a day.
MICHELLE OBAMA: “Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we’re going to have to change our traditions, our history; we’re going to have to move into a different place as a nation.”
Barack Obama: “We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK. That’s not leadership.”
Mooch’s $12 K dress YOU paid for.

May God bless.

Bored much, Malia?
Michelle Obama, her two kids, her mother, and numerous aides will enjoy a taxpayer-funded trip to China from March 19 to March 26. White House officials refuse to tell U.S. taxpayers how much they will shell out for the trip, likely due to inevitable media scrutiny.

“She is trouble, very bad news”

She’s a 15 year old girl,that’s the way a lot of them look when away from their friends.They outgrow it.
.
She was butt-ugly then, as she is now.
The Obamas are itinerant luxury-loving parasites, living high, greedily sucking at the public teat......(wire-transferring a bundle offshore for a cushy retirement and to finance Mrs O's political ambitions?).
=================================================
This'll make you even sicker.
NRO tallied what taxpayers are paying for M/M O to live large on the taxpayers' dime: a grand total of $1.4 billion per year: Air Force One ($181,757 per hour), executive chef ($100,000 per year), three full-time White House calligraphers ($277,050 per year for the trio), chief of staff to the presidents dog ($102,000 per year), Ohaha's royal motorcade ($2.2 million).
==========================================
$1.4 BILLION is the current annual cost of the White House just in household expenses, not including US policy operations for which the WH exists--administered by some 900 parasites---policy staff recruited by Ohaha. There's the $100 million trip to Africa not including the foreign aid billions O handed out to these oil-rich satraps. There's serial Ohaha vacations costing taxpayers millions---- (the low estimate Hawaii vacays is $4 million each, but is probably five times that); the pricey Martha's Vineyard stays; Mrs O's costly trip to elite Marbella w/ an entourage of 30. Mrs O's $3900 PER NIGHT in a posh Ireland hotel with 30 more rooms for her entourage. $100 million alone was spent for the African apology tour.
=======================================
TAXPAYERS SUFFERED RUINOUS HEALTHCARE CANCELLATIONS--BUT THEY PAY $7 MILLION FOR THE OBAMAS HEALTHCARE---NRO found the first familys yearly health-care costs Americans $7 million; the reason why only Boobamba himself was "enrolled" --and not his family---in a faked-up PR ploy.
Mrs O wore her pricey diamond bangles (bought on a govt salary?) at a DNC fund-raiser, attended by "tolerant and compassionate" Dems....raised big bucks to keep Mr O in office so he could work for "the poor." Her diamond Gothic cuff priced at $15,350 set with 2.17 carats in diamonds and the Quatrefoil bracelet at $11,800 set with 1.73 carats in diamonds. (Excerpt) Read more at houston.culturemap.com. Mrs O wowed all the "tolerant and compassionate" Dems who hate the rich and support endless tax-paid programs "for the poor."
Not to forget a succession of designer dresses and gowns----like the $12,000 Caroline Hereara creation worn for the Frenchy state dinner (a bribe from Obama for his blonde indiscretion at the Mandela memorial?).
===============================================
Mrs O has 24 assistants (at last count) at her beck and call. Her
wardrobe, nails and hair pieces subsidized w/ tax dollars
of struggling Americans.
When these two grifters are roaming around the WH alone at night in their pjs, they have to be laughing their a$$e$ off.
Personally I think she is there as a means of having about as close to 100% secure communications as you can get.
The communication equipment on her plane, or 1 of her planes, and the communication equipment here in the US would be about as secure from prying ears as you can get.
When the Clintons got into trouble in the 1990’s the Chinese were always there to pull their chestnuts out of the fire even going so far as to provide full auto weapons to the gangs in LA and even threaten to nuke the west coast.
The Chinese would love nothing better than to get another Clinton in the WH.
Three more years of this jug eared clown plodding along and Hillary isn’t going to make it.
If Hillary is going to have any chance of getting in she’s going to need something to get the American people to rally around and support the jug eared clown.
A threat from China might just do it.
Democrats have the same respect for the press as teenage boys have for the girl who's 'easy'...
