As the U.S. economy endures high unemployment and a jittery stock market, President Obama has preached sacrifice and fiscal discipline. But the pictures coming out of a sunsplashed Spanish resort this week may be sending a different message.
First lady Michelle Obama is on a five-day trip to a luxury resort along with a handful of friends, her younger daughter, Sasha, aides and Secret Service personnel. Her office said the first family will pay for personal expenses, but declined to reveal the taxpayer cost for the government employees. The president stayed home in the United States, as did daughter Malia, 12, who is at camp.
The trip provided plenty of fodder for television news shows, talk-show hosts and bloggers.
Critics portrayed the foreign getaway as tone deaf to the economic anxiety back home. Earlier in the week, the first lady was photographed walking through the streets of the Costa del Sol region wearing a one-shouldered Jean Paul Gaultier top.

She had to take it while the taking was good; she knows it's about to come crashing down and she won't get another chance to show the world what a trashy broad she is!! Do you think she'll get to Mexico, soon??
Hope so, you know what the mexicans do to Americans.
Yeah, she told people to vacation in the Gulf area to help the people there but where does she go!!!!! And the taxpayers have this big bill to pay….what a joke. Senior citizens can't get their COLA for 2 years cause it would make the deficit go up too much but this was okay. Plus all the money Obama is giving away to other countries, where is it all coming from. IMPEACH–IMPEACH–IMPEACH. Get them out of the White House, they don't belong there.
Everybody keeps on saying IMPEACH–IMPEACH–IMPEACH–, but I don't see any action being taken to get the ball rolling for the IMPEACHMENT action to get going. It's like everybody wants to do it, but nobody wants to make the first move. Mean while the Obama's keep on getting away with more and more. What's up with that?
Write to your Representatives and Senators. TELL THEM! I write to mine all the time urging them to vote a certain way on many different things.
Not only do I want that pack of trash out of our white house I want them out of our country never to return. Take a good look at the photo that is attached to this article. If in her atire she is trying to look sexy that ugly varmint does not stand a chance at that regardless of what she wears of does. I want him tried for TREASON and get the correct punishment for the crime. That broad A$$ ugly b-t-h needs to be tried along with him and get the same punishment for TREASON!!
How come mrs. obummer planned her trip over her husband's birthday?
Could there be trouble in the marriage?
