Taxpayers paid for President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama to fly separately Thursday to Los Angeles, where they appeared on separate TV talk shows on the same day.

Mr. Obama flew on Air Force One, which costs about $228,000 per hour of flight time, to appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Thursday night in Los Angeles.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Obama flew on a different plane Thursday across country to Burbank, California, to tape an appearance on Ellen Degeneres’ show. That show will be broadcast on Monday.

White House deputy press secretary Eric Schultz told reporters Friday that the president and first lady’s “schedules were not in sync in order to travel together.”

He can’t stand her any more than we can.
and
She can’t stand him any more than we can.

True enough.
But there is a back story. A seat on AF1 is usually occupied by Reggie Love. And Michelle, aka "The Scorned Woman," cannot stand to be on the same plane with Barry and Reggie. That's what started this separate planes nonsense.

I read that traffic was a disaster wherever the grifters even got close to.

They can stay in Kalifornia for all I care. It’s where they belong. With the rest of the liberal/Marxists/communists/parasites.

Pathetic, our government is so corrupt.

Sad thing is, WE let them get away with it.

We should be burning down their gdamn houses.

Couldn't fit her travel crate in the Cargo Hold of AF One?

"travel crate"? Is that a nice way to say "her humongous @ss"?

Yep, when they take it, they make sure to get the largest cut before redistributing the remainder. The Sharpton plan of redistribution.

I really believe most of their behavior is antagonistic.

So do I. Just showing that they will because they can get away with it. Congress surely doesn't have the spine to even try to slow them down. Congress rather enables them, because they want to do the same thing. One hand washes the other.

“”schedules were not in sync in order to travel together.”””

Then GET them in sync, you yahoos! It’s not like either of them are doing anything important enough that their schedules can’t be changed. Who are they trying to fool? They do not have an ounce of shame between the two of them.

Commies milk the whole cow, skim the cream for themselves and give a bit of milk to their supporters.

With their TV appearances over, will they return on the same airplane?

Their schedules didn’t synch up. Yeah, right. Like Ellen Degeneres and/or Jimmy Kimmel wouldn’t have moved heaven and earth to accommodate the Obamas’s schedules and have them on their shows, even if it meant taping earlier or later.
