Michelle's ski trip marks 16 Obama vacations
Washington Examiner ^ | 2/20/12 | Staff

Posted on 02/20/2012 10:28:40 AM PST by Nachum

First lady Michelle Obama’s weekend jaunt to Aspen, Colorado for a President’s Day ski holiday with her daughters Sasha and Malia makes the 16th time members of the first family have gone on extended vacations during their three years in office. Their stay at the home of a major Chicago fundraiser for President Obama makes the fifth time the first lady and her daughters have taken a break from Washington on their own. Only once has Obama had a long weekend out of town and alone, celebrating his 49th birthday in Chicago in August 2010.

other than .. she is on ‘another trip’ I could care less what she does - after all, she does need time with her kids, being away so often. Same goes for him - don’t know whether I would rather he stay more in Washington — or is it better for him on the road, away from Washington. Either way he is spending/giving our money, lying, and getting us closer to danger.

and it will always be someone else who is at fault.....

Sixteen vacation in just over three years. I’m thinking that is slightly above the U.S. average.

Why don’t they ever go home for a quiet weekend in Chicago? You’d think the kids would want to catch up with their friends, and Michelle might want to relax at home.

On the other hand, I’d read that their house in Chicago is harder for the Secret Service to guard because it is surrounded by other houses in a somewhat dense neighborhood, unlike Bush 43, who was out on a ranch away from the nearest neighbors. Maybe they are advised not to go home that often for that reason. (but I don’t really think so.)

I could care less that they take so many vacations, If they were spending their own money. They have their own money.
We are in the middle of economic hard times. A lot of people can't take vacations, THEY DON'T HAVE THE MONEY! ! !
So we have to watch this bafoon and his wife spend our money like it's water. . . . .

Sooo right, Buckeye Battle Cry...

Betcha obozo’s was in a sweety, agitated state until he heard the front door hit moooochelle’s bigbutt as she exited to a waiting caravan of cars and people to wisk her to her DATE with the slopes..it IS the best SHE can do, since everybody knows her, and nobody wants her. Her ego, her mouth, her butt, her big feet, her leftist/revolutionary love of Mao, makes her so enduring to everyone...yeah, yeah mooch, we all know how much you're loved...just ask baraaaack.

Who DID replace Reggie Love as oboma’s “Main Squeeze”? And, yes, I think it would be a great idea if The National Inquirer were to post a reporter/photographer at the back doors of the White House...the traffic in and out could be very interesting, while mooochelle is “vacationing..again.”

The Obamas know how to milk the system. They are smart and the people in this country lack the intelligence electing such frauds.

All your Snickers bars belong to us

Now you get why she went on this trip. It's not for enjoyment. No sireeee. She's on a working vacation. She is there checking to make sure the food is government approved at all the surrounding ski lodges.

What a diligent little worker bee she is! /s

‘Comrades!’

`Comrades!’ cried the eager press secretary’s voice.
‘Attention, comrades! We have glorious news for you! We have won the battle for production!
Returns now of the Troubled Asset Relief Program, the `Too Big To Fail’ program, the `Comprehensive Unified Industrial Conglomeration in Trusted Hands’ program, `5th Opportunity and Great Leap Forward For Homeowners,’ and many, many other programs—calculations completed by the miniplenty of the output of all classes of consumption goods show that our standard of living has risen by no less than 25 per cent over the past year!’
`All over the North American Union this morning there were irrepressible spontaneous demonstrations when workers marched out of factories and offices, and from sporting fields and front stoops, and paraded through the streets with banners voicing their gratitude to Big Bro’ and Big Mo’ for the new, happy life which their wise leadership has bestowed upon us.
`From her working retreat, Big Mo’ has telescreened us these completed, increased production figures: deep-fat fried baked goods, up 40%, lard, up 15%, Snicker bars, up 30%, Wagyu steaks, up 45%, dairy products, up 60%, starched discs loaded with molten mammal lactate, swine flesh, shredded vegetable matter—’

Telling four year olds to eat their taxpayer subsidized chicken nuggets can make one very tired. Hence the need for more vacations.
