Yet you wish to classify this as a vacationThe official visit has already been mentioned, idiot.
So?
Only idiots like you will call anything they can a vacation when they don't like the person they wish to slander.
I would agree in the sense that I think the President is always on the clock no matter where he is.
I know you only trust what comes out of your ass hole, but it's now irrelevant for you since you think he worked every day.I know. How convenient. Sorry that I don't trust the News ferrets like you do.
which we already know would probably include 335 days in Santa Barabara.His diary I'm sure is lacking in details, especially in anything classified. It does however list his travel.
If you are sure his diary is lacking in classified details then I'm not sure why you want to see it other than you are just being an idiot.

As much as could be expected for a First Lady -- which these days isn't much. The characterization was introduced by another idiot.
Was I asking you, idiot? I was asking another idiot.So?
Exactly why Crookshanks is an idiot, except you still don't know what slander is, idiot.Only idiots like you will call anything they can a vacation when they don't like the person they wish to slander.
mic e obama today faced a fresh wave of attacks over her lavish break in spain with 40 friends, which could easily cost u.s. Taxpayers a staggering £50,000 a day.and her critics will be further annoyed when they learn that the president's wife had a spanish beach closed off today so that she, her daughter and their entourage could go for a swim.
Spanish police cleared off a stretch of beach at the villa padierna hotel in marbella after the obamas had finished a busy day of sightseeing.
whether or not the taxpaying american will be paying for meals, they will definitely be footing the bill for the first lady's 68-strong security detail, her personal staff - and the use of presidential jet air force two.
The per diems for the secret service team runs at around £172 each, which amounts to nearly £60,000 for the length of the summer break.
Use of air force two, the air force version of a 757, comes in at £91,900 for the round trip. This does not include time on the ground.the american public will also cover the cost of the only official part of the holiday, a visit to the spanish royal family on the island of majorca.
This will involve transport there and back for the entourage - as well as travel, accommodation, food and expenses for all while on the island.
Conservative estimates already put the total cost at £150,000. With majorca to come, the bill will be more like £250,000.

Back in the u.s., anger was mounting - especially as it has emerged the first lady will have enjoyed eight holidays by the end of the summer.
tantaros wrote: ‘to be clear, what the obamas do with their money is one thing; what they do with ours is another. Transporting and housing the estimated 70 secret service agents who will flank the material girl will cost the taxpayers a pretty penny.’
she accused the obamas of hypocrisy for preaching the values of sacrifice and austerity to americans while seemingly refusing to heed their own advice.
She said: ‘instead, mic e obama seems more like a modern-day marie antoinette… than an average mother of two.’
she added: ‘i don't begrudge anyone rest and relaxation when they work hard. We all need downtime - the first family included.
‘it's the extravagance of mic e obama's trip and glitzy destination contrasted with president obama's demonisation of the rich that smacks of hypocrisy and perpetuates a disconnect between the country and its leaders'
That makes 8 vacations in one year.
The really funny thing is it's even the liberal media like the New York Times that are piling on.
Say what you want to absolve this, but its ing re ed timing at its best and utter and complete insensitivity at its worst. In any case its pretty ing stupid. Make official trips that have to be made for actual purposes of state. Otherwise stay the home or vacation in the states where it helps LOCAL economies here.
Manny, dang. I guess i pegged u wrong. You're still a progressive, but this has to be the only honest post here.
I think this thread seperated the real progressives from the Obamabots, tbh.
Manny and I agree! Amazing!
And I found it EXTREMELY interesting that the FIRST place she visited was the Alhambra Castle. It's not particularly significant architecturally but is historically significant as the seat of power when the Moors (non-white Muslims from North Africa) invaded Spain and almost conquered all of Europe in 711AD.
Ain't THAT some ?
uh no..

Oh REALLY?
You don't find it the least bit interesting that of all the places in world she could have vacationed she chooses the city that was the capital of the Moorish Empire in Europe and the first place she visits is the Moorish Castle?
You REALLY don't see the irony of a little Black Pride History Tour on the taxpayer dime?
Insensitive? I guess, if that's important to you.
Worth itemizing and race baiting over? No.
Why is it always about race and religion? You dont realize how that stands out to those of us who dont see "black muslim" when we see Obama.
Could it be that your just a fugging bigot CC?
Congrats, CC:
I'm not race baiting, I'm just stating fact. Of all the places in the world to vacation that's the place she chose and that's the first place she visited. Sure looks like SHE is the one that made it about racial history.
Oh, it's clearly race baiting.
Just own it for once.
Your not race baiting. Never said you were. Your just an obvious bigot.
The ? Really? My god man.
Or how about just history? You don't even get it, do you?
I'm not even mad at you CC. I think I've finally gotten to the point where I find it just plain sad that this is how you view things right off the bat.
CC is a bigot in the worst way. That is the thread that ties him and WC and Jack together. It becomes glaringly obvious if you read enough of their posts
You guys crack me up. I love tweaking your little politically correct perceptions.
You can't even admit a FACT.
You think it was all just an accident?
You automatically concluded it was racially motivated.
That is a FACT.
You think your race baiting was just an accident?
Oh that's right...lets rewrite history...the Moors were great guys...
