I know you think you are being witty.....but you just described a Republican's ideal woman.

She rocked it.

It's great having a First Lady that knows how to have some fun.

Maybe all discussions of this administration shoudl be there, not in the Politics section which is more about the fate of our country than someone' admiring her new bangs and dance moves.
P&OC is entertaining!

But it's unseemly for the First Family to be jet-setting around the world, hobnobbing with billionaires and Hollywood stars, and living it up like royalty while the rest of the nation struggles in "the worst economy since the Great Depression."
And just who do you think Romney would have been hobnobbing with if he was in the WH? Surely not Hollywood stars, but definitely millionaires and billionaires and big business. The Romneys wouldn't have to go international they could just hop on AFOne and fly from state to state to their dozen homes. And Mrs Romney would probably be on Good Morning America doing her own version of Martha Stewart showing you how to fold a tee shirt seeing as how she does her own laundry.

Do you think the if the Romneys were in the WH they would actually care that the nation is struggling? What would make them any different from all the other republicans?

And...... other Presidents jet setted around the country and around the world while the economy was in recession or we were at war.....it is part of the job. Some of those trips are strictly job related, some are vacations. You can't expect the President and his family to forgo vacations unless everything in the country is perfect.
I do, especially when he continuously tells the people that we must have "skin in the game" that we need to engage in a "shared sacrifice" and berating people for "not paying their fair share" in "the worst economy since the Great Depression."

Only, this man and his family don't even attempt to show any empathy at all, they waste millions of dollars on their many vacations and glitzy nights out to hobnob with the celebrities and billionaires, or set up elaborate parties where they are serenaded by pop singers, and entertained by comedians.

What is wrong with the ski resorts in Virginia or Maryland, that Michelle has to jet out to the lavish resorts of Aspen? Why can't 0bama golf locally on a seasonal basis? Must we pay with our hard earned taxes so it's always summertime for this guy?

I'm not a party man, I hold no allegiance to Romney or his political party, and i would be just as critical of him if he acted this way. If the man is demanding we all have skin in the game, pay more taxes, and engage in shared sacrifice, he could at least lead by example, instead of hopping around like a billionaire's spoiled and pampered trust fund baby.
