Gibbs, if she were a private citizen you wouldn’t need to defend her trip...

I remember a news article that compared Obama’s state visits to: I believe... Russia with ALL other U.S. Presidents.

The Obama’s chose the Ritz Palace something royal... when the Clintons or Bushes stayed in more downgraded hotels.It was said Obama’s always UPGRADE.

The Obama’s think they are king and Queen and are worse than the Clinton’s.

THAT IS BAD!

I'm a “private citizen” too, so where's my cruise to the Bahamas or trip to Disneyworld?

You can't have one, the carbon footprint is too big. < / sarc >

"The first lady is on a private trip. She is a private citizen and is the mother of a daughter on a private trip.

Does this mean she is using her own private money?

Taxman
Let me tell you
How it will be.
There's one for you,
Nineteen for me,

'Cause I'm the taxman.
Yeah, I'm the taxman.

Should five percent
Appear too small,
Be thankful I don't
Take it all.

'Cause I'm the taxman.
Yeah, I'm the taxman.

If you drive a car,
I'll tax the street.
If you drive to city,
I'll tax your seat.
If you get too cold,
I'll tax the heat.
If you take a walk,
I'll tax your feet.

Taxman!

'Cause I'm the taxman.
Yeah, I'm the taxman.

Don't ask me what I want it for,
(Uh-uh, Mr. Wilson.)
If you don't want to pay some more.
(Uh-uh, Mr. Heath.)

'Cause I'm the taxman.
Yeah, I'm the taxman.

And my advice to
Those who die.
(Taxman!)
Declare the pennies
On your eyes.
(Taxman!)

'Cause I'm the taxman.
Yeah, I'm the taxman,
And you're working for no one but me.
(Taxman!)

REMEMBER Rachel Maddow, Keith Olbie,CNN,Katie Couric,MSNBC,NBC,CBS,ABC all think that the pic
of Obama as a nazi foolhardy inexperienced clown
or whatever clown.. is r a c i st.

Let me repeat something to the MSM once and for all:

It is not because Obama is black that I do not like him, his teleprompter,George Soros nor their poli seas...

It is simply because he is TOO commie RED!

"The first lady is on a private trip. She is a private citizen and is the mother of a daughter on a private trip. And I think I'd leave it at that," Gibbs said.

Baloney. Here she is descending from an official airplane of these United States as she arrived in Spain:

If she is simply acting as a private citizen on a private vacation, then she is grossly misusing the property of our United States government.

If Ms. Obama wants a private vacation, she should charter her own airplane, which I believe can even be had for bargain rates presently.

REMEMBER: We did not say nor imply that title...

The MSM did.

I think it means the Obama’s will not be re elected in PC terms but if we said it; it would be headline MSM news and racist and unsensitive.

Yep, Gibbs tells the press to back off and they do. If you follow-up on the story your a racist. They got a pretty good thing going as they run our country down a rat hole.

There must be some way to figure out the hard dollars that are being spent..on the hotel rooms, meals, and other incidentals...the soft dollars, the cost of the USSS and the planes, the infrastructure, can be ignored, and publicize that number, and imagine what that $$$$ would do for a local economy in the gulf area..

The founders wanted nothing to do with royals and royalty for a reason.

Royalty is done in by inbreeding and unbridled envy from commoners towards excessive wealth but England was the richest most developed country for a long time. It's a good formula for a stable government that doesn't go bankrupt. If George Washington had become king, America would be a richer more conservative country today. If a designer country and constitution were engineered in modern times, a kingdom is a good way to go, but not with an affirmative-action leftist king!

Correct, Marie Antoinette eventually succumbed to public “pressure” and eventually relieved.
