Why are the taxpayers funding this trip?? The FLOTUS is NOT an elected representative of the United States and has NO official state function.
If s/he wishes to champion ugly causes in the US (such as the promotion of ugly breast belts to hide the fact that s/he is fat!) that shouldn’t cost the taxpayers money.
This is sheer BS!!

Except from an
article at the Washington Post!
A less obvious reason was revealed in a small detail. Reporting for Politics Daily, Lynn Sweet wrote that Mrs. Obama traveled to Spain at this particular juncture to comfort a friend whose father had recently died and whose daughter, a friend of 9-year-old Sasha Obama (who accompanied her mother), had especially wanted to celebrate her birthday in Spain.

The question we should ask is why wasnt michelle by bell w/her husband for his birthday? A big deal was made about the muslims birthday, assuming that was really the day he was born. The press ignored that fact that obamas wife was absent. Not only absent, but clear across the Atlantic.
I have two theories:
1-Michelle picked up some cash from the Arabs she met on the trip
2-Michelle is so arrogant and angry that she is behaving petulantly in a manner that will reflect poorly upon Obama because she's getting tired of being First Lady
Of course, both could be true.

Yeah, I’ve heard THAT version, too!!
It’s still a boodoggle and the taxpayers are footing the bill.

Who is criticizing a “person in mourning”? We’re criticizing Michelle Antoinette.
If you believe she’s in mourning or that this trip had anything to do with mourning, then I have several bridges, a lot of real estate, and some really cool cold fusion engines to sell you!

“The real issue is being missed here. The question we should ask is why wasn?t michelle by bell w/her husband for his birthday?”
Does the fact that celebrating birthdays is harem (ie, forbidden) under Sunni Islam help explain it? No joke.
