Daily Mail ^ | 8/24/11 | Tamara Abraham

The Obamas' summer break in Martha's Vineyard has already been branded a PR disaster after the couple arrived four hours apart on separate government jets. But according to new reports, this is the least of their extravagances. White House sources today claimed that the First Lady has spent $10million of U.S. taxpayers' money on vacations alone in the past year. Branding her 'disgusting' and 'a vacation junkie', they say the 47-year-old mother-of-two has been indulging in five-star hotels, where she splashes out on expensive massages and alcohol.

Let’s pray that the GOP has the cajones to expose this 24/7 now and in ads before the election.

>>This is interesting, but to be fair I really don’t take the National Enquirer seriously.<<

Neither did John Edwards. But he learned quickly.

>>National Enquirer has actually been pretty accurate. They are the ones that busted John Edwards.<<

Exactly. The National Enquirer is NOT the tabloid it used to be. I’ll never understand why don’t “re-brand,” change names.

Remember The National Enquirer broke the Lewinsky story and the Edwards baby/daddy story.

Didn't they also break the Jesse Jackson Love-Child With His Campaign staffer scandal?

"Michelle Obama - cracking under the pressure of being First Lady - is drinking way more than she should, friends fear."

"friends " fear.

Liberals don't have friends.

They HATE for the sake of hate.

Their vision is shared melancholia.

I think you are correct about Drudge.
However, they did break the Edwards story.

I read that the Obamas are picking up the tab for the rent ($50,000 per week) but the taxpayers are footing the bill for everything else — Secret Service, transportation, etc. When Michelle insists on separate planes in order to arrive 4 hours early, that is simply outrageous.

Not sure, but they did break the Tom Cruise is an alien story.

Also, Bigfoot is abducted by a UFO story.
(I made that one up)

You're right. They also did a huge story on the Monica/Bill situation.

There's another thread running a story in the Globe about HIS drinking, and that one I don't put as much stock in. If it had been in the N.E. it would have held more sway for me.
