Malia in Mexico story vanishing from the Web
Times247 ^ | 3/19/12 | Eric Ritz

Have you heard that Malia Obama, the president’s daughter, is reportedly spending her spring break in Oaxaca, Mexico?

Allegedly, she’s jetting off with some of her classmates and 25 Secret Service agents to a country that the State Department has said all Americans should avoid. But something is different about the latest “Obama vacation controversy:” references to it are disappearing from the Internet — and fast.

I don’t have a problem with the story being scrubbed. It detailed which hotel she is staying at, how many friends were with her, etc. Mexico is overrun with violence and there is no need to advertise information about Malia that might endanger her life.

Then maybe Obozo should have kept Malia adn her vacation dollars here in the US.

That’s ridiculous. If you want to hate Mexico, fine; don’t let reality interfere with your vision. But most of the country is perfectly all right and you’re safer on the street there than in many American cities.

Unfortunately, Mexico is poorer than it should be because it’s basically a socialist country, which is its major structural problem.

The reason Obama is being secretive about this is not because of security, it’s because he doesn’t want to attract attention to the huge costs he and his family have incurred for their vacations.

Well, this is the first time on FR that one of threads I posted on has been removed. Amazing. It doesn’t even show up in my ping list. I am disappointed, to say the least.

Maybe as a child, she should be with her parents.

That certainly would have been a better idea, but you never know what he has planned. In 2008, he used the “they’ll say I don’t look like all the other U.S. presidents.” Maybe this is a hint of what’s to come ... “look they hate me so much they attack my innocent children on vacation.” He has no record on which to run, sympathy is about all he can muster.

I ain’t takin’ the bait. I say leave Malia & Sasha alone, period. Nothing good will come of it.

Here's why I disagree: Obama loves to stick it in our face and tell us to smell. He loves it. He loves tossing the finger at people, literally. There's not a tiny bit of shame or embarassment; in fact, he'd LOVE you to actually SEE how opulantly and lavishly he lives.

So, since that reason doesn't fit with his psyche (psycho?) profile, we are left with the more reasonable explanation of security.

Even safe places in Mexico can go DEFCON 4 RIGHT QUICK.

I’m sorry, then don’t send your 13 year old to Mexico on Spring Break.

Do you think the people in the Hotel aren’t telling everyone they see that The Pretenders daughter is staying at the same hotel they are?

The Freedom of the Press is dead.

"The Press" is free. It was bought and paid for, dirt cheap.

"The Press" has been gone for a very long time, but they just stopped trying to hide it in 2008.

What we see, hear, and read is all supplied by the ministry of propaganda, bought and paid for (and I have no doubt, blackmailed as well) by George Soros and his "friends."

Nothing even slightly damaging to the Obama regime will ever make it on the airwaves or print media. And their power even extends to the Internet.

Remember, Soros has brought down governments, and nearly brought down the Bank of England, all the while enriching himself while plunging millions into abject poverty and under tyrannical control.

there is no need to advertise information about Malia that might endanger her life.”

Her parents allowed her to go and it is they who put her in this position. IMO it is beyond presumptuous for BO and MO to think that our tax dollars should be used to fly their thirteen-year-old to Mexico, particularly considering the state of affairs in that country. Yes the SS is responsible for keeping her safe but this venue just pushes the entitlement envelope way too far.

Well, that’s true, he does love flaunting it. But this being an election year and all, I think he wants to go back to his non-existent roots as born into a poor black family...just like Steve Martin. So I think he’s trying to downplay it for the moment.

That said, why are these girls invisible? No other president has had invisible children. Are they maybe wearing burkas or so ugly that not even Laz would...well, you know...

I wouldn’t send my child to Mexico for spring break. Actually, I took mine to AZ to watch the Texas Rangers at spring training.

Nevertheless, I can’t blame the Secret Service for wanting the details of her current situation removed from the Internet. They have a job to do.

Somehow I don’t see Sarah Palin allowing such a thing, but if she did, it’d be her business not mine and I’d want the SS to do their job of ensuring the safety of her children.

Oh BS. All other president’s kids were reported on. We are paying for it. How many 13 year old kids take spring break with 20+ friends and 25 or more secret service agents? It’s grotesquely ridiculouly extravagant and on our dime! You sticking up for Obama is just par for the course though. Now run and report me to the mods for being mean to you.
