Normally I would agree with you, as others probably would. However, today when corporate heads have been criticized for flying their own jets to Washington, and when BO has advised us that we should "tighten our belts," and expects us all to be thrifty, then they should set some example when spending OUR money.

It is ridiculous that Michelle flew separately with her daughters, because that means two planes flying two times each. A huge cost to the taxpayer. Plus all the others she took along for this party trip.

And look at the pouting, angry face of her neice in the one picture, with her arms folded. Either she is not having a good time, or she has the same chip on her shoulder that Michelle has and has a look-alike expression. It seems none in that family are appreciative, or even happy. They would rather keep complaining about the past and being resentful.

These people in the White House now seem to flaunt everything in the faces of the American public; expect us not to find fault (that would be racist, after all...ho-hum) and feel "entitled" to do as they want/spend as they want because they are now in the White House and it is owed to them. It is the arrogance they have that is so annoying. It is like the kids who see you coming in your car, and then start to walk very s-l-o-w-l-y across the street. They stare at you, and dare you to get upset or honk the horn. It is an intentional provocation. That same attitude is what the Obamas display. I can't wait until they are out of our White House.

Instead of improving race relations in this country as could have been a very positive step...the Obamas are creating more disturbance and distance between the races. They are setting the example that those of their race should remain angry, should be arrogant, and should expect never to be criticized for their actions because to do so would not be PC.

Barack and Michelle have taken the low road, not the high road...and lowered the bar instead of raising it for their own race. What a terrible shame and, truly, an insult, because they are saying, in essence, you can't be any better...so just remain angry. That is not a way to inspire people to become more enterprising and successful.

I agree, but get used to it. When he was elected there is not a doubt in my mind that all BO saw was $$$$$ and power. MO saw $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$...our money. Free sh*t for the trashy users they are.

BINGO and it’s a double whammy because now whites are getting angry at the blacks due to that arrogant attitude.
