Media Matters is a "press watchdog"? Is the author talking about the same group that meets regularly (like weekly) with President Obama? Their credibility gap is as wide as the Grand Canyon.

The Obama's are raping the American taxpayer, plain and simple!

go to Fact Check and it will tell you every personal debt by the Obama's trips have been paid for with the Obama's personal account. Remember the Obama's had prestigeous jobs and Mrs Obam was a attorney runninga hospital in management long before becoming First Lady

since when does the first lady have a right to spend that kind of money for anything. i think obama should be forced to repay the american people for his wife's foolishness. we did not elect her so she has no right to spend our money so get it back.

Here's an idea for the self righteous political types.
When your country is bankrupt and about to run out of funds again, and lots of people are looking for work, and homes are being foreclosed on, and your are $US15T in debt and can't afford to pay it off at zero percent interest rates .......
DON'T TAKE A $2+m FAILY REUNION VACATION TO ANYWHERE WITH ANYONE COURTESY OF THE BELEAUGERED AND ABUSE TAX PAYER! VISIT ALL THE HOMELESS TENT CITY DEMORALIZED COMMUNITIES IN THE USA ALL YOU WANT! YOU CAN TAKE ALL YOUR INLAWS WITH YOU FOR THAT!

The only real problem with Judical watche's figures is that they are ACCURATE. They used the goverments OWN NUMBERS. This administration feels free to blatantly LIE and mislead the public and they use well funded organizations who trade favorable media coverage for access. This administration is by far the most corrupt that has ever existed. When will the american people stand up and demand they be held accoundtable.

She thinks she is queen. Hard to believe that a woman so ugly and out of touch not to say a hypocrite emphases on hypo would consider herself some kind of ambassador for normal American people. I find this degenerate repugnant and a parasite on the American taxpayers
