EXCLUSIVE: MICHELLE WALKS OUT AS OBAMA DIVORCE BATTLE EXPLODES! (taxpayer funded trips)
The National Enquirer ^ | April 1, 2014 | Steve Herz

Posted on 04/01/2014 7:47:26 PM PDT by Mount Athos

IN a major behind-the-scenes blowout, President BARACK OBAMA and first lady MICHELLE waged their worst White House fight ever over her lavish vacation trip to China!

Sources tell The ENQUIRER that Obama exploded when Mi­chelle refused to cancel her pricey getaway – even after White House advisers warned him that the first couple’s six-year string of extravagant vacations had already drained the U.S. Trea­sury of a whopping $150 million in tax­payers’ money.

Michelle arrived in Beijing with her mother, Marian Robinson, and the Obamas’ daughters, 15-year-old Malia and Sasha, 12, on March 20 for a planned seven-day, three-city trip.

They checked into the lavish presidential suite at the Beijing Wes­tin hotel, costing a whopping $8,350 per night.

One published report quoted hotel employees grumbling about Michelle’s mom “barking at the staff ” and added that the first lady’s party was “inconveniencing pretty much everyone.”

Besides the family’s annual Au­gust vacation on ritzy Martha’s Vineyard and Christmas holiday in Hawaii, Michelle jetted off to Mexico and Spain in 2010, and kicked up her heels at a posh ski resort in Vail, Colo., in 2011.

In March 2011, she spent five days in Latin America with her mother and daughters. Three months later, they were joined by Michelle’s niece and nephew for a safari in South Africa.

In June 2013, the first lady spent two days in Ireland. That trip re­quired booking 30 rooms at an exclusive hotel for her staff and security detail, costing taxpayers a reported $5 million.

“Michelle does whatever she wants and goes wherever she wants. It’s as if she’s tacked up a map of the world and put pins on all the places she wants to visit. The sad part is that taxpayers are paying for her bucket list.”

I chose to edit out the gossipy stuff not related to vacation spending on taxpayer dime.

Somehow, I doubt he cared a bit about the cost of her trip. This is BS.

The Mooch is EXACTLY as Freepers have depicted her for years! A parasite of the lowest order.

I don’t understand why he would care.

People scoff at the Enquierer, but aside from Drudge and FR, for MONTHS they were the only one that would touch the Monica story with a 10-foot pole.

They kept it up, too.

My very deep scorn changed, then, and I scorn them considerably less than the MSM, or maybe even Russian sources.

Well, although the press ignores it, the Clintons have no interest in seeing each other. But they aren’t about to get a divorce, because that would throw a spoke in their wheels.

Same with the Obamas. They aren’t about to get divorced, when it would put a spoke in their extravagant spending and their press adulation, and maybe even raise a few questions about their sexual orientations.

I’m sure they’re both mad as hell at each other, but they’re not about to do anything that would interfere with their self gratification.

Divorce? No.

Saw the National Enquirer at the store today, cover story, also a story on Ellen Degeneres “the Queen of Mean” I think it said.

Don’t forget they exposed John Edward’s affair months before the MSM would touch it.

You realize that the Enquirer broke the John Edwards scandal, right?

I trust them more than the newspapers.

“Divorce? No.”

I don’t buy this for a second. If there’s one thing they absolutely agree on, it’s spending other peoples’ money.

One retired Secret Service officer said the Clintons never slept one night together in their eight years in the White House.

Apparently she is nearly as popular as “Ellen” and “Oprah” with the American sheeple.

You’d think the “first black president” wouldn’t perpetuate the stereotype of blacks on the dole.

Of course he’s only the 2nd black president because all the “black leaders” in 1992 told me Clinton was the first.

And Barack is only half black. So after the first woman (Hillary who’s crowning was supposed to be in 2008) do we go for a full black gay whatever next?

My bingo card is getting confusing.
