This was E-Mailed to me This Afternoon!
Our Tax Dollars At Work!!!!!!!!
Michelle Obama Takes Girls to London for Fish and Chips.
Truly Change we Can Believe In----Or as was Said during the Campaign, We Are The Change We Have Been Waiting For!!!!
Imagine This----And when Do we Get Totally Fed Up?

On Sunday President Obama flew back to the United States On Air Force One. His Wife, Two Daughters and Her Mother did a Bit of shopping in Paris Before taking their Own Boeing 757 over to London to do some more sight seeing.
We all remember Obama's Admonishment to Corporate CEOs in February "You Can't Get Corporate Jets, You Can't go on a Trip to Lasvegas or go down to the Superbowl on the Tax Payers Dime"
Apparently that doesn't apply to his wife.
The London Times opened it's description of Michelles Visit this Way: Motorcycle Outriders, Armoured Chevrolets and Bullet headed men in Rain Coats Criss Crossed London Yesterday as Michelle Obama and her Daughters spent a second day on an unofficial visit to the Capital. The Times went onto Describe that when Michelle and the Girls arrived at Westminster Abby, the building was closed to tourists with people already in told to "wait against the wall" An American visiting the Abby said "Right Then I Knew it was Probably someone from Our 'Royal Family'"
Michelles Motorcade shutdown a London Street as the First Lady of the World and her Children go for Fish and Chips at a Pub in Mayfair.
The Entourage Inside the Restaurant was 15 people while dozens more wait outside. Include the Dozens of Air Force personnel to fly and service the Plane, Embassy Personnel and Other Staff and we are Talking about a Serious Expenditure of Tax Dollars.
Meanwhile Millions of Americans have Lost their Jobs and won't be able to take their Family on a Summer Holiday!
Despite their Circumstances They'll still be expected to Fork Over the Tax Dollars to Pay for Michelle's Trip!
Can you Imagine the Gall of the First Family?
52% Wanted Change, 100% Got Screwed!! :mad:

I don't know if this has been verified but it would NOT surprize me ONE bit. I have not doubt the she feels she is somehow "owed this" by the American people. :mad:

What a TOTAL waste of taxpayer dollars!! Many REAL people, you know people who work and pay taxes, are in trouble these days. The Obama's should have to PAY BACK ALL NON-Official travel expenses. WITH INTEREST!! Since the First Lady and First Kids have NO duties under the Constitution, at least that I know of, EVERY penny spent on THEIR world travels SHOULD be at their OWN expense. The ONLY thing that I think we as taxpayers should pay for is the security for those kids. It really is NOT their fault that they are put into a position of possible danger. THeir parents FORCE that danger on them in exchange for the power and the glory that they sought.

Hey Layout,
It starts at home. when people don't care, they don't care....

We have a first gentleman which he has a staff, state transportation has been on official junkets for the state. He has enjoyed escorted visits in Europe, the Middle East and China a lot of times but no one seems to care about the million plus in staffing, and few million in transportation not to mention the official state office he has in Lansing. This is still while the state is going down the tubes. What happened to leadership, I would think that Lansing would get it together and say "I will cut back" but as I was driving down from there today, I was amazed at the amount of state owned vehicles that passed me while I was doing 75.

Now let's not mention the jobs that were created for Levin and other losers of the last election, she was quick to create them at the same time defending her husbands position in the state.

I am all for eliminating the position of the First FILL IN THE BLANK. If it so important that we don't attack the family, then the family needs to be out of politics all together and that means not acting like they were elected.

I care not what happens to the wives/husbands of big time polititions. They choose to get into this. Many just for the power and glory. I call them "Political :censoredsign:s". I wish no one any harm but they choose to put themselfs in this position. The Kids on the other hand have NO choice. I feel sorry for them. They stand NO REAL chance in life. Their parents are FAR more interested in their own power and glory and their children are NOT the MAIN focus in theirs lives, as they should be. Once you accept the MASSIVE responsibility of bringing a new life into the world your needs and dreams become SECONDARY to the needs and dreams of you child. Your children should get your BEST attention and everything else in life gets the rest.

As to our State, it is a lost cause. Until we truely become more than a one party State and the Union lose their control over that party there is NO chance that things will ever improve. The corruption runs too deep.
