Title: Obama brats do ritzy Bahamas vacation as "cutbacks" continue
Post by: quiller on March 25, 2013, 07:44:27 PM
More lies about saving money from the Muslim in Chief.....

QuoteA source tipped Breitbart News off to the First Daughters' spring vacation, which was not publicly announced or reported.

Breitbart subsequently confirmed President Barack Obama's daughters' trip with other sources. Both the White House and the Atlantis resort declined to confirm the report or comment, but another guest provided a photograph of Sasha and Malia at the resort.

Social media, including Twitter and Facebook, have also carried reports of the First Daughters' presence at Atlantis. One person who is at the resort wrote: "Rumor confirmed: friends saw the first daughters with a gaggle of friends being escorted to the held elevator."

Via Twitter, another person wrote: "Obama daughters at the same restaurant as me...in the bahamas."

The whole family is a bunch of arrogant pricks and you can bet they will say that they paid for the trip themselves.  Lying through their teeth is a daily occurence just like you or I brushing them.

Has there ever been such a group of moochers in the W-H in our time?

They should be able to take vacations but how many of us that a gaggle of friend when we leave the country.  I know I never have and never will.  We are suffering but Obama does not conside himself to be part of the WE factor.   He is above that.

Not that anything will really happen, but it is a start...

Quote"The Obamas' unnecessary personal luxury travel is an abuse of office in this age of sequester, unemployment, and out-of-control government debt," Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton told Breitbart News. "Taxpayers are right to wonder why the Obamas repeatedly take personal trips with seemingly little regard for the resulting drain on precious tax dollars."

Neither the Secret Service spokesman, nor first lady Michelle Obama's spokeswoman, would comment on details regarding the cost of the trip, how many Secret Service agents or other resources were assigned, or who else accompanied Sasha and Malia on this trip.

According to the records, the total cost of the trip amounted to $115,500.87, detailing these charges:
•Ground transportation: $23,964.81
•Lodging: $21,682.92
•Airfare: $47,767.34
•"Vouchers": $21,636.14 (not itemized)
•Support Charges: $449.66 (travel for one from Mexico City to Oaxaca, not itemized)

That's disgusting, these idiots have no business traveling for pleasure when the rest of the country is cutting back on basics.

Lets don't get into called the kids names.  It is not their fault that Obama is their father and they probable do plan the million dollar trips.  If I was that age and offered the same deal I wold take it.  Blame the parent for letting it happen.  He passed on a good opportunity to explain the mess we are in and what responsible people do in this circumstance.  Instead he is doing what he has been trained to do at Harvard.  You don't worry about it just use someone elses money.  Problem solved.

I went to the Bahamas once and got myself a voodoo doll.  I stuck pins in it and the person it was intended to be died.  I didn't mean them to die, just to get a headache.

I agree that it isn't the girls' fault that they went to the Bahamas.  It's that witch with the big butt who has no concept of decency or correct behaviour.  She should acknowledge that the country is in a financial crises and that they (I just can't call them the First Family, sorry,) should try to save taxpayer money so that maybe children could visit the White House again.  However, It's my feeling that the tours were stopped because Empress Marie Michelle didn't want those rugrats tramping through "Her" house, not because of sequestration.  Donald Trump offered to pay for the tours himself but it was refused.  They don't want peasants near them.

Remember how the left attack GW for his vacation at his ranch?

I would like to see the cost of those ranch vacations compared to this.

Here is the rub, they will quote huffpo with stats on how much GW spent but attack any and all links showing how much the Obamas have spent.  They just will not believe it until one of their own sites thinks it is important enough to cover, until then, they just kiss the ring of their king.

For some reason (and this topic makes me think of it) every lib seams to think that if GW did it, we must approve of it.  Perhaps because they seem to approve of everything that their guys do.  Some libs have a devotion to liberaldom that for all intents and purposes, is a religion.

The media obliges Obama and can't escape how obvious they are being, catering to his every whim...and helping downplay Obama's hypocrisy. What else are they hiding from us, in worship to Numbnuts of Nairobi?

Some of the liberal media are now starting to whine about republicans bringing the presidents daughters into the political mess. Funny part is these are the same idiots that ripped apart Palin's kids and went as far as renting housing in the same development and watched them with telescopes. In most states this would be illegal (Stalking). Have to love how they've changed now, isn't that just adult of them.

Come on now cut the libtards some slack.  Haven't you figured out by now they are the prime example of "do as we say, not as we do" hypocrisy!

Yep!
Embarrassment of guilt, the left holds us to a higher standard out of embarrassment, a standard they will never achieve.
