As millions are counting pennies and living on ramen noodles, Save Jerseyans in case you were wondering or didn’t know…
First Lady Michelle Obama, her daughters, mother and an entourage of 70, are staying in a sumptuous 3,400-square-foot, $8,350-per-night suite presidential suite at a Beijing Westin hotel complete with a private steam room, ‘corner sofas with silk pillows,’ and in-room dining for six.
Judicial Watch, a watchdog group in Washington, D.C., reports that it cost more than $11 million for President and Mrs. Obama to travel to Africa for Nelson Mandela’s memorial service last December, all despite the fact that they were in Africa for less than 13 hours.
The Obama’s’ 2013 visit to Africa, a longer affair, reportedly cost Americans more than $100 million.
A 2010 visit to Spain cost taxpayers nearly $470,000.
White House officials refuse to say how much the China trip will cost and they have gone through great lengths to structure Mrs. Obama’s China trip as a cultural journey rather than a political one, but no matter how they present the trip, the taxpayers are nevertheless paying through the snout.
In the meantime, as Russia invades the Ukraine, Barry is planning their family vacation to Martha’s Vineyard from August 9th through the 23rd.
But hey, I guess “equality” is more of a rhetorical weapon than an actual way of life for these liberals pols. Don’t act so surprised.
I am outraged at this. No president before Obama ever took vacations or stayed in hotels that were expensive! The nerve of him doing what no other president has done! They should stay in 2 star hotels found on hotwire.com like President Bush did!
Michelle Anoinette….while millions of Americans are on food stamps, jobless, and can;t afford Obamacare,,,Miss thing is living like a queen on tax payers dollars…
It is racist to question your betters, haven’t you heard that, you ignorant prole? She deserves every cent because elections have consequences.

I don’t think this is tax payer money she is using.
