Do these people do anything besides go on vacations? The first "lady" travels to London and Italy and we get to pay for it again. Liberals still think that the Obamas actually care about the "working class".

That is her excuse to classify it as an official govt trip so she does not have to spend her own money. This is the same as a CEO going on a fishing trip and billing it as a business expense because he asked one of his friends "How's business?" on the first day.

Laura Bush also took overseas trips. Many more than Michelle. Get over it.
