How did they get so rich they can afford to rent 40 $2500/night hotel rooms for a week? They couldn’t have afforded this 2 years ago if you believe their financial disclosures.

And if someone else is footing the bill then for dang sure it is our business to know who’s doing it.

[Little Ray]

Wrong.
How many SS agents and WH personnel accompanied her? If even one came with her, she's not a “private person.”

Weezy Obama, love it...

[brytlea]

That is an excellent point.

Lol - well, Major’s in the front row now.

The liberal ruling elite doing what it does best. Taking our money and living in luxury, while showing its scorn for the hard-working citizens who finance their high life style.

“How did they get so rich they can afford to rent 40 $2500/night hotel rooms”

The rooms are registered to a one “we the people” as manipulated by a Mr. Soros.

Meanwhile the other half of the wrecking crew was at a Ford plant today saying how the bailouts et al saved the US auto industry. Funny, I thought Ford did not except any money from the feds...silly me.

Dittos! And don’t forget her entourage of stooges she took to Spain with her. Probably thirty or more gofers, flunkies and hangers on going to Spain courtesy of the American taxpayer

And I think I'd leave it at that," Gibbs said.

Fat bastard threatening reporters again for daring to ask a question about the Husseins waste of taxpayer money.

Revenge is sweet.

[chris_bdba]

She is NOT a private citizen when she is using taxpayers money to pay for all of this!

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

This just ticks me off...

She is not a private citizen when WE THE TAxPAYERS Are flipping the bill.

If this was so private have Oprah or the Obama’s pay us; the taxpayers, back.

If she wants her privacy tell her long legged macked daddy husband to resign and move them back to mob land-Chicago.

“Private citizens meet with the king and queen of Spain all the time,”

That meeting is all it takes to make the trip “official business.”

Therefor,,, we pay for it!
