She’s wearing a ‘sun dress’.
For God’s sake, cover up. Try just a bit of dignity
befitting your position.
You got nothing we want to see.

Too bad for Michelle as I understand she still had some tax payer money she has not spent on the trip.

Not the cost factor...the OPTICS of the outrageous costs taking a separate trip again....

Looks like the vacation sharpened Professor You Lie’s reasoning powers:

I need to finally make a useful decision for my daughters.
I added so much debt to their future - - - .
It is so depressing that I can’t even make a speech about it.
I’ll just have to keep calling “debt” an “investment.”
It has worked so far. ( Everyone is scared to call me out on that distinction. Maybe Joe Wilson might.someday.)
I do so like the picture on the wall of my favorite river in the world.
Can’t think of the name right now, - - - starts with a “D” - - - .
Oh well, it doesn’t matter!
Hmm - - - what decision should I make today to help my daughters?
Hurricane Irene will cause sea level to rise, hmmm - - - .
Well, we are just a few feet above sea level here at the Vineyard that Martha built.
The White House is on a hill well above sea level.
And the Oval Office is on the Second floor!
That is it!
No photo ops of me filling sandbags here!
Guess what girls?
We are going home!
( Wow! It really DOES feel good to make a decision that is good for people other than myself! )

she has a run in her nylons!

The run in her nylons must have happened at the mansion. She might of snagged them when she was chasing him to beat him about the head because they were leaving. I think she can take him easy.

I agree

I can only imagine what it took to tell the narcissist malcontent Moochelle

“NO. You are NOT staying overnight and taking a separate flight in the morning. It’s bad for the president’s image”

She’s just mad because she has to skip another pricey lobster and champagne dinner on our dime.

Evvvverything is “historic” or “unprecedented” with this bunch....

Au contraire!

Only the things that aren't "unexpected"...

Here’s the Raghead in Chief’s BIG chance to prove he’s ‘The One’. He should go out to the Potomac River and face down Irene! TURN the storm!
Isn’t he supposed to be able to do anything??
Well- we can always hope for lightning...

LOL, I thot about including “unexpected” as well.

I have whiplash from shaking my head so much reacting to the antics of this administration...Today’s most vigorous “head shakers” hmm probably the nanny-in-chief’s “master-of-the-obvious” hurricane observations and pronouncements and his obvious change in plans to fly back thereby looking presidential and the change to bring the whole fam back on the SAME PLANE to look like they are not the narcissistic elitists that we all know them to be ;)
