First Daughters' Spring Break Part II: Sun Valley
Amrican Thinker ^ | March 30, 2013

Posted on 03/30/2013 2:48:11 PM PDT by drewh

Outrageous as it may seem to some, rather than respond appropriately to the criticism and back off from the extravagant vacations, Michelle and Barry chose instead to thumb their noses at America by flying Sasha and Malia from the Atlantis in the Bahamas to Sun Valley, Idaho to top off Easter week with a little skiing.

For those who are shocked, here's the bottom line: Nothing anyone does or says is going to change who these people are. It is now crystal clear that no amount of public disapproval or disparagement will deter them from spending our money to wantonly indulge themselves as often as they please. After all, in their minds, they're worth it.

What is also clearly obvious is that if by chance there's an uptick in criticism of the first family's endless excesses, their response will be an even more defiant display of conspicuous consumption while the liberal media does their part by accusing critics of racism.

In less than a week, spring break has transported two little girls to the sun and surf of the Bahamas and then scooped them up and ferried them to the cold, powdery Idaho snow!

Didn't Obama just blame the cancellation of White House tours on Secret Service furloughs? Then, after making schoolchildren cry, he managed to rustle up a kiddie security detail to stand around in Atlantis in swim trunks and then trail Sasha and Malia down the bunny slope in Sun Valley.

And wasn't it just a few weeks ago that these girls and their mother shut down Aspen, Colorado? How many otherwise-furloughed Secret Service personnel were assigned to that little excursion? , "Sun Valley is known to be a getaway for celebrity." The irony is that it's America that needs to get away from the Obamas.

Except that George actually built a business and earned all his money.

A million dead slaves rustle in their shabby graves and say, “And this helps us.... How??”

What if Sasha and Malia did a little math problem, figured out how much their two spring breaks cost the US taxpayers, and stayed home or went very local, and gave the difference to a charity helping fight slavery that still exists today, like in Mexico or Saudi Arabia or Africa?

Q: What's the difference between the Obamas and the Atlanta “educators” who were indicted for test fraud in order to be paid bonuses?

A: One group is passel of filthy hogs, with their snouts buried deep into the public trough. The other is bunch of teachers.

Completely wrong. Fox KMTV in Twin Falls reported it yesterday.

But less than an hour after reporting it, they got a call from the Obastards demanding it be taken down...and it suddenly disappeared from their site.

Think of Obama as an employee ~ who has bosses elsewhere ~ call them his control officers.

He gets several days off each month, otherwise he's on call on this particular job 6 or 7 days a week, and with overtime for state dinners and so forth.

This is the predicament Yassr Arafat found himself in ~ he really wasn't in charge but he had to go through all the motions as if he was, go to meetings, attend this event or that, make speeches for the PLO, and sometimes suffer through an Israeli bombardment of his headquarters.

He was well paid for his work.

Still, he was simply the face man for a murky little known group. If Obama shares in the Arafat predicament, he probably doesn't even know the identities of all those he works for, but they pay him much more than we do. We also let him have a monthly vacation, and therein lies the mystery of who the real movers and shakers are behind this man.

The Chinese don't follow our standards nor their own ~ they'd think nothing of requiring an employee to work 25 days a month with a brief holiday at the end.

Indonesia has the same problem with a total exception for domestic workers ~ agents abroad probably get paid monthly.

Latin countries have comparable standards and equally comparable disinclinations to follow those standards.

So, who might Obama be employed by?

Great post, Muawiyah, and that is the question I have long wondered. We know "Obama" is just a puppet or front man, but for whom? Whoever they are, they're from Hell, and they'll return to Hell one day.

It’s like I’m watching re-runs of the Jeffersons.

Not exactly. George Jefferson was a successful small business owner and worked for every nickel he made.

Well, he did say he would have more flexibility after his 2nd emaculation.

It's the cadence ~ Obama's handlers don't have anyone on their team who is at all interested in whatever is going on in the US but they have to feed stuff to Obama to make him look like a normal President.

It's not working. His cadence is like Arafats ~ sometimes horribly incomprehensible ~ if you don't realize he's just an employee.

There are any number of foreign countries, or foreign societies, or companies, that'd love to have a guy in the White House ~ and that's how this one works. His wife knows ~ which is why she goes ahead and takes those vacations anyway even though she knows it POs even her friends.

I've been digging into this problem for years. One time I thought I'd come upon a bit of evidence that even his children were rented from someone ~ but that he's foreign there can be no doubt. He caved pretty quick to Putin which means his handlers don't care to tackle that guy. He's had an arm's length relationship with the Chinese leadership elite which means almost nothing, but again, it's his handlers who are not looking for conflict there.

Could be the Pakistan CIA ~ or even India. One possibility is one of the richer state governments or oral barons in Malaysia ~ they've always had their own interests at heart and those are far different than those of their neighbors.

It's a real challenge.

Apparently, we can only hope to outlive some or all of these bandits.

I wish it had been an emasculation instead. Oh, wait... I guess that's ancient history, and it doesn't affect his ability to destroy our nation.

This commie dirtbag and his “wife” make me sick.

They carry on like a gang of Katrina looters who stumbled upon a Walmart.

They are going crazy with all the "Free Stuff" just there for the taking.

They are grabbing everything in sight - even if they don't know what it is or how to properly use it.

So I’m tuned in to the Marquette Syracuse game today and who comes on the jumbotron in the box seats, smirkin, chewin gum to hide his cig breath, jammin’ with is brothus, wavin to his subjects?
Tough day for the Halfrican having his lazy arse propelled right from Andrews AF golf course to watch NCAA hoops!
and my team lost.

From the Huffington, Puffington:
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama attended one of the weekend’s big college basketball games after playing a round of golf Saturday.

Obama’s motorcade took him directly from a golf course at Andrews Air Force Base in suburban Maryland to Washington’s Verizon Center to watch Syracuse and Marquette play for a berth in the Final Four of the NCAA basketball tournament. He left shortly before the end of the game, which Syracuse won 55-39.

With less than 11 minutes remaining in the first half of the East Regional final, Obama appeared on the Jumbotron suspended above the Verizon Center court. He sat with Reggie Love, his former personal aide at the White House and a member of the Duke team that won the NCAA championship in 2001. At least one other friend, Marty Nesbitt, also sat with the president. Also joining Obama was NCAA President Mark Emmert.

The audience responded with loud applause when Obama was shown on the huge screen, and he smiled and waved.

And his wife, "Weezie", was nothing at all like Queen Moochie.
Weezie had common sense, good taste, manners and ethics.

He's clearly un-American (even if Frank Davis was his sire, and maybe especially if that's the case).

He's a mystery man, and I've thought the same things about his "family." Those children could be anyone's or surrogate-delivered. His homosexual past rumors just add to the bizarre aspect of it all.

No doubt he has the most powerful handlers on earth (and under the earth). Nothing can touch him. No one can even be heard to question his past, because of the megaphone of Hell's media drowning out and "ridiculing" any of us who ask who this bastard, criminal fraud occupying our White House is.

Who is chaperoning these princesses on this vacation? Is Muffy with them because i don’t see any mention of her. As I see it, this is Michelle’s game. She is a bitter, angry woman and pretends to be doing Barry a favor by agreeing and sacrificing to perform the FIRST LADY gig. I also think she is is a woman scorned and that has a massive price tag.
