OBAMA'S DAUGHTERS ARE "SENIOR STAFFERS" ?
*Who says we don't have royalty?*
I guess the Boston Globe and the NY times forgot to print this.
First lady Michelle Obama's family trip to South Africa and Botswana in June cost taxpayers well over $424,000, according to new accounting based on Air Force manifests obtained by Judicial Watch, a taxpayer watchdog group. The use of Air Force aircraft alone for the June 21-27 trip cost $424,142, said the group, and that doesn't include the food, lodging, and ground transportation for the 21 family and staff members.

And the administration (the most open administration in history) had to be sued to get this through the Freedom Of Information act.

Michelle Obama Listed Daughters As “Senior Staffers” To
Justify Expensive African Vacation and Safari
October 5, 2011 Judicial Watch said the U.S. Air Force provided a C-32 (a Boeing 757) modified by the military for the purpose of flying big-wigs around the world – to fly the First Lady and her entourage to and from Africa , at a cost of $424,142. Another $928.44 was listed as “bulk food” costs of providing 192 onboard meals for the 21 people who made the trip. The Obama daughters were listed on the manifest as “ senior staff .
This junket wasted tax dollars and the resources of our overextended military. No wonder we had to sue to pry loose this information.”
The nation is suffering with the economy sputtering, the national debt soaring and Obama’s economic rescue policies not only failing but actively making things worse..*Meanwhile, the First Lady justifies an expensive trip to Africa to take a vacation and safari with her daughters by saying it’s “official business” and even going so far as to list her children as “staffers.” *
*The level of arrogance and dishonesty on display here is nothing short of shocking.*
