IN a major behind-the-scenes blowout, President BARACK OBAMA and first lady MICHELLE waged their worst White House fight ever over her lavish vacation trip to China!
Sources tell The ENQUIRER that Obama exploded when Michelle refused to cancel her pricey getaway even after White House advisers warned him that the first couples six-year string of extravagant vacations had already drained the U.S. Treasury of a whopping $150 million in taxpayers money.
Michelle arrived in Beijing with her mother, Marian Robinson, and the Obamas daughters, 15-year-old Malia and Sasha, 12, on March 20 for a planned seven-day, three-city trip.
They checked into the lavish presidential suite at the Beijing Westin hotel, costing a whopping $8,350 per night.
One published report quoted hotel employees grumbling about Michelles mom barking at the staff and added that the first ladys party was inconveniencing pretty much everyone.
Besides the familys annual August vacation on ritzy Marthas Vineyard and Christmas holiday in Hawaii, Michelle jetted off to Mexico and Spain in 2010, and kicked up her heels at a posh ski resort in Vail, Colo., in 2011.
In March 2011, she spent five days in Latin America with her mother and daughters. Three months later, they were joined by Michelles niece and nephew for a safari in South Africa.
In June 2013, the first lady spent two days in Ireland. That trip required booking 30 rooms at an exclusive hotel for her staff and security detail, costing taxpayers a reported $5 million.
Michelle does whatever she wants and goes wherever she wants. Its as if shes tacked up a map of the world and put pins on all the places she wants to visit. The sad part is that taxpayers are paying for her bucket list.

I’m sure Barack and Reggie have spent at least that much.
No kidding. We need reliable, impartial sources like ABCNBCCBSCNN. They will give us the real scoop.
Shame everyone isn't as smart as you and me!
Enquirer also saved us from a John Edwards presidency, although the MSM ignored the love child situation for months.
....well, I despise BJC but this is the one thing I have some sympathy for him on. Boy, did he ever F up on her!
sure to cause delays on the supermarket checkout line?
While most of what they publish is junk I wouldnt discredit them entirely....they did nail Edwards to a wall.
April Fools!
Yes, dateline April 1!
The Enquirer never really got into the off-the-wall stuff that Weekly World News did. WWN was deliberately nonsense. Enquirer on the other hand focused on actual events. Yes, a lot of what they wrote would never be confirmed, mostly because the MSM never covered those sorts of stories and the people themselves would deny everything, but TE did usually get things right. As others noted, the John Edwards story was a high point for them, and actually pushed them further towards legit coverage. They’re even more believable these days, due to a deliberate effort on their part, as a result of getting that one right.
There's no way these two will divorce for now. What? You think Michelle is going to name Reggie Love as a co-respondent? Nope. She'll stay on the "separate plane, separate vacations" travel and shopping plan, thank you very much. Look for the splitski when the kids hit 18.
Meantime, this story (a plant from the gitgo) is designed to defuse coming Republican criticism of Michelle's super-expensive jaunts with Mom and the kids. It's designed to make Barry look tough, angry and trying to cut down on the 'little woman's' spending sprees! Waddaguy! He sure wears the pants* 'round here. Yesirree, Bob!
PR folks aiming for ....."Got the same problem myself" ...chortle, chortle.
*Mom jeans, with matching bike helmet.
Both the Obamas are sticking it to the American people. Fact is: Both of these evil people in their “real” being.......hate America....and are doing everything they can to destroy our economy and nation!!!! Folks: get out and vote, come November, 2014 to totally destroy Obama’s Godless, Religion hating Democrat Party!!!
They also were the ones that found a picture of OJ in the shoes he said he never owned, the ones whose prints they found at the murder. When all was said and done, it was the Enquirer that covered the OJ story most accurately.
They’ve gotten a few high profile things wrong (and paid for it) but they’ve also gotten a lot of stories right. They aren’t the Globe. They’ve got a pretty good track record.
I think it was the Globe, not the Enquirer that said that. Could be wrong. Just that every time I check out, if I saw that headline I checked where it was. The Globe is usually wrong.
I hear you. Keep up the good work.
if you think Mooshell ain’t getting what she needs sexually on the side, you miss her core principles
and as I’ve written before...anyone who thinks Barry can satisfy Mooshell must also believe one French fry would make Godzilla burp
Who would want to wake up to that ugly face every morning? Not Slick Willy - it was merely a marriage of convenience for them. I seriously doubt they ever slept together.
And then maybe the mooch can have a boyfriend or girlfriend in her life..it’s been a long dry run sexually for the mooch
******************************************
There was a rumor about her having an affair with a SS agent some time back .... maybe that’s why they’re having drinking problems. /s
To be honest, the Obamas have dragged us the voters through so much ‘garbage’ ever since 2008, that if the two of them actually did divorce while he was in office, it would be inconsequential. Who cares what they do or dont do in reference to their ‘marriage’? I don’t. We have Obama Care to deal with, the NSA, the TSA, police who seem to have turned against the civilians and their pets. We have more people out of work since the depression, the real depression in the 1930’s. They would be surprised at how few Americans from either party, really give a darn about maintaining the fiction of their romance. Go ahead,divorce. Maybe then they’ll stop with the never ending vacations in hotel rooms that cost the taxpayers $8k each night.
