Why is Michelle Obama the ONLY First Lady that you take issue with regarding how she travels?

This is standard operating procedure. Or do you simple have no concern for HER saftey because you can not stand having a Black First Lady? The thought of this Black woman being flown somewhere in a private jet whil you are stuck in "fly over" land must make your blood boil.

Just be honest...

Maybe you should be willing to accept that there are certain perks that come with being an unpaid First Lady who donates a great deal of her time and energy to do First Lady duties.

As I have posted before, she feels NO empathy with American people. She won the lottery when Hussein Obama won the presidency, she feels she no longer has to concern herself with us. Besides, as the first Black First Lady, she feels she is owed these gigantic expenditures as reward for "keeping her people down" for so long and finally allowing one of them to be rise to the White House.

I do believe that she is the first First Lady that has commanded taxpayer funded private jets to leave for vacation before the POTUS.

I think I just threw up a little in my mouth. You are kidding me.

So, Nancy Reagan was a woman of "the people". She was a First Lady during an economic downturn. What about Barbara Bush, Hillary Clinton, Laura Bush...no problem with these First Ladies traveling via private jet. And I suspect that there will not be an issue with the next (White) First Lady traveling via private jet, either.

The only reason that people like yourself have an issue with Michelle Obama is because Black people (no matter theie position) should not have more/do more/live better/etc than White people (even if that White person is living in a trailer park on a patch of dirt)

And how is this different from any other First Lady?

What makes THIS particular First Lady such a thorn in your side? Hmmm

I guess we're even then because this thread make me sick to my stomach as well. Michelle Obama is the First Lady. She cares out the duties of a First Lady with class and dignity. I'm sorry you can't recognize that fact.

That is an ignorant and untrue statement on your part as it refers to me. People like you who constantly play the race card do a disservice to true victims of racism. Shame on you.

I think the First Lady she take her high school friends on holiday to the Spanish Riviera once again. Why not? Maybe France and Italy as well. She'll really enjoy the wines.
