The Obama Women Are in Vegas (Vacation number 17 since 2008)
ABC News ^ | March 29, 2012

Posted on 03/29/2012 7:44:02 AM PDT by Zakeet

It’s spring break for the Obama daughters and mom has taken them West for the week. Michelle Obama and her daughters visited Mount Rushmore Wednesday to see the monument where four U.S. presidents are immortalized in stone on the soaring mountainside.

Now the Obamas have arrived in Las Vegas for a private family visit.

At the depths of the recession, President Obama seemed to disparage Las Vegas visits, at one point warning hard-pressed Americans, “You don’t blow a bunch of cash in Vegas when you’re trying to save for college.”

There is lingering dismay in the Las Vegas travel and tourism industry but, during the political campaign, Obama has been a frequent visitor on official and political trips to the swing state of Nevada.

They went to Mount Rushmore?

“Someday, your Daddy will be up there. And we’re going to make sure it’s a full reproduction so the taxpayers can go around back and kiss his ass.”

I am so looking forward to the day when these professional Marxist grifters are out of America’s life. They have spent millions of our hard-earned dollars on their personal pleasures. My prayer is that November brings a landslide defeat for Obama and that he would be revealed for the know-nothing tool that he is, and that no one would pay a dime to hear or read what he has to say for the rest of his miserable life.

I hope her staff has fun.

Think about this; every visit by the Prez or Michelle brings lots of business ($$$) to Vegas. It’s their own little stimilus plan. Watch for more travel/stimulus trips; some, of course, will be official business.

What’s sad is almost half the people in this country, if not more, believe it is perfectly okay for them to spend tax dollars on E-stravigant vacations. They worship them that much.

I would bet the farm that the Obummers never took 17 vacations in their lives prior to moving into the White House. What a drain on society these sponges are.

“Do these girls go to school or are do we pay for a private tutors.”

Wondering the same thing. They supposedly go to Sidwell Friends, an exclusive private school, but they are always flying off somewhere, one vacation after another, at all times of the year. They can’t be getting a regular education, but then again, they are the offspring of the smartest man and woman in the world, so maybe they don’t need to go to school! (sarc)

I knew it.....I just knew it.....I’ll bet the park service charges extra to go around back.

And here I thought that English professor I had my freshman year was the biggest asshole I’d ever seen.
