Michelle Obama and her youngest daughter, Sasha, seven, have arrived in Spain for a short holiday as US officials scrambled to defuse embarassing allegations of institutional racism against their host country.

Hours before the first African-American first lady of the US and her daughter were settling into the luxurious Villa Padierna hotel on the outskirts of Marbella, the US state department removed a warning about police racism in Spain from one of its websites.

"We have received isolated reports that racial prejudice may have contributed to the arrest or detention of some African-Americans travelling in Spain," the bureau of consular affairs had warned on its travel advice website.

"Recently, two African-American US government employees were questioned by police in Barcelona for no apparent reason. One was detained and suffered physical injuries in the process."(continued)

That's right.

Everyone is a racist except for Barack Obama, Michelle Obama and their best buddy Jeremiah Wright.

Did I perceive the facts correctly?

70 secret service, WOW.

This is an outrage and it doe snot matter who it is, This woman is always on vacation as is her husband.

They would not be able to do this if we had a fair free media but they know this American media will cover for them so they kick the ass out of their vacations and we PAY FOR IT.

I’m fuming, I have 3 kids and a wife, we have done massive cut backs not gone away for even a day in the last two years so we do not go into debt.
We have not even eaten out for over a year and a half or even got take out.
My kids go without, we go without and then I have to hear these far left turds saying they are for the average family.
Like crap are they.

We watch our money and worry over bills and this chewbacca takes her friends and family over to Spain and on vacation at least once a month

It’s a frigging outrage and if Bush had done this the media would go mad as would the left wing and rightly so but because it is their messiah they ignore it.

This is why we are different.
We would be mad if Laura Bush was like this and never did anything but the left ignores their wars, their spending, their corruption, their vacations paid by us.

I am so pissed off

“I don’t see a 13% minority winning a civil war. South Africa is majority black, we aren’t ... not even close.”

All you need is a black president, a black attorney general and a bunch of self loathing white liberals and it can happen.

Is African American something to be proud of?? They need to work on the American Thing a hell of a lot more.

Well she should love it because she is one of the biggest celebrity racists in America.

At least that will not happen in Mississippi.

I’m thinking big liberal cities, mainly. Especially as police forces lose funding. Think Detroit and Chicago. But, like I said, I doubt it would go down that way. It just “could”.

Some interesting stuff from Fred from about a decade ago on this subject:

Interesting, isn’t it? Both girls have had 2 b’days while in the WH and ages haven’t changed.

“This is an outrage and it doe snot matter who it is, This woman is always on vacation as is her husband.”

I think “doe snot” is a good nickname. ;-)

AND DON’T FORGET THAT THE HISPANIC VOTERS ARE BEGINNING TO BACK AWAY FROM HIM AND ALL HIS EMPTY PROMISES THAT THEY BOUGHT INTO. WE’LL SEE WHOSE SIDE THEY ARE ON IN THE LONG TERM.

Or “hummingbird butt”, as my Step-Dad puts it! ;^)

Racialism trails behind this bunch of thugs like the stench behind a full garbage truck.

They USED TO SAY in South Carolina, “Don’t let your Mockin’bird mouth overload your Hummin’bird ass.” All those good old boy verses seem to have disappeared lately.
