On a $4M Vacation, Michelle Seeks $3 From Backers

by Keith Koffler on December 30, 2011, 1:21 pm

Speaking from her paradisical $4 million Hawaii vacation, Mrs. Obama wants to know: Do any of President Obama’s supporters have $3 to spare for his reelection?

This is approximately like coming upon Warren Buffett on a street corner with a McDonald’s cup asking if he can have 15 cents.

Michelle’s request was part of an email sent to the Obama 2012 list today.

Over the next 11 months we’ve got an organization to grow, voters to register, and people to get fired up.

I hope you’ll close out this year by donating $3 or more now to help make sure we’re ready for the next one . . .

Thank you so much, and happy new year,

Michelle

The obscene juxtaposition of the first lady on a $4 million vacation while asking what would have to be middle to low income earners for three bucks – who else would they be targeting with such an appeal? – is yet another example of lack of perspective the Obamas seem to be gaining while in power.

Mrs. Obama takes extravagant vacations to Spain and southern Africa. The president golfs obsessively and is currently dining at Honolulu’s ritziest restaurants. All while asking their fellow Americans to “sacrifice” during this time of not plenty.

And they blow $4 million – mostly taxpayers’ money – on a vacation, while wondering if the small people can come up with $3.

What about renting a beach house next year at the Jersey shore? I mean, if we’re all going to sacrifice.

I don't really care how much Michelle Obama or anyone spends on their clothing,no matter how foolish it may seem.

But her hypocrisy and Obama's as well in telling others they must sacrifice while she flaunts her own wealth and that of taxpayers is a bit much.

Maybe,even if just for appearances she might travel with her husband instead of separate very expensive travel ahead of time.She is not paying the cost for that.Those taxpayers she is asking to donate are.

Healthy eating is a good thing,but stop lecturing people on how to eat or what to feed their children when photo after photo shows Obama and Michelle Obama doing anything but healthy eating.

Get her own appetite under control,her own weight before she lectures me.

Stop telling the american people they must sacrifice while she lives a life of excess.

I am surprised at the number of people willing to vote for Obama again that throughly dislike her.
