Showing her now customary disregard for this nation's economic plight, Michelle "Antoinette" Obama once again wasted hundreds of thousands of tax dollars for a few extra hours of her own selfish pleasure and convenience. In order to arrive ahead of her husband at their luxury vacation destination, she took a separate VIP jet, complete with its own Secret Service contingent and staff. The President and his dog arrived via Air Force One for their extravagant 10-day holiday just a few hours later. The Obamas have pulled this carbon footprint-swelling, his & hers luxury jet stunt on nearly every one of the many vacations they have taken since Obama took office in 2009. The self-sacrifice Obama is enjoining upon those suffering economic hardship is clearly something Michelle Obamanette is not willing to undertake herself. And concern for the environment--just the talk, not the walk, as far as this first familly goes.
Do you know how your other leaders, both secular and religious, spend their vacation time? How many days of vacation do they take each year?

I gather from a story listed at the website RealClearPolitics.com that the fancy vacations are at last taking a toll on the POTUS' popularity. 'Bout time!
You are a parent, just as they are. Many parents of young children choose to fly separately in the event - God forbid - that one of the planes had a fatal crash. Seems to me their planning to fly separately is just good parenting.
Amazing how Obama supporters always want to be anonymous!
Anon, if I were to make the choice to fly in a separate plane, I would pay the cost, not the government. The point of this article was to demonstrate the total lack of concern the Obamas have for the bills they run up at our expense. They have the means to pay for such waste, but choose not to. Can you remember the outrageous European vacation Michelle arranged for several dozen of her closest friends, all at taxpayer expense? I suppose you would find some excuse for that posh junket as well.
BTW, good parents, IMHO, would travel together with their children. If tragedy were to occur, we (they) would all be together. I don't think good parents teach their children to take advantage of their position.
