The Mail Online covered the story of our First Lady’s trip with friends to Spain. CBS news says the tickets round trip are a whopping $73,781.50. ABC Hypes Michelle Obama’s ‘Lush,’ Luxurious’ Spanish Vacation… which the same network — if you remember — slammed Laura Bush for an expensive trip (even though it was wholly paid for by them and not the tax-payers). Here’s Mail Online’s story:

Michelle Obama today faced a fresh wave of attacks over her lavish break in Spain with 40 friends, which could easily cost U.S. taxpayers a staggering £50,000 a day.

The First Lady has been lambasted for her extravagance at a time when the economy is still struggling. One blogger went so far as to brand her a modern-day Marie Antoinette.

And her critics will be further annoyed when they learn that the president’s wife had a Spanish beach closed off today so that she, her daughter and their entourage could go for a swim.

Spanish police cleared off a stretch of beach at the Villa Padierna Hotel in Marbella after the Obamas had finished a busy day of sightseeing….

The exact cost of the trip is unclear as Mrs Obama, 46, and her friends are footing personal expenses themselves – which is just as well.

For a start, they will be paying for the 60 rooms booked at the 129-room Hotel Villa Padierna. With basic rooms starting around £380 each, the nightly bill will be no less than £22,800….

It was also just recently pointed out that Chelsea Clinton’s wedding was 5-million dollars while this Secretary of State donated a measly $10 to relief aid for Pakistani flood victims she footed the wedding. The Republicans are not the party of the rich elite, Democrats are.


$10 To Pakistan For Flood Relief-$5 Million To Daughters Wedding

This is from Kicken’ and Screamin’ – I want to put up K&S’s subtitle to their blog, I found it humorous:

… I went to bed a conservative gun owner but awoke the next morning, according to the DHS, a possible member of a right wing extremist group needing to be watched.

Here is the quick story from K&S:

Hillary Clinton, defender of the poor and down trodden, our Secretary of State who’s supposed to be empathetic to the tragedies around the world, has no problem dropping $5 million dollars on a wedding and getting dressed like a cheap whore but when it comes to the victims in the flooding in Pakistan she donates a WHOPPING TEN DOLLARS!

Of course this story is new so we may find out she gave more… but with knowing the “donations” given by Democrats (even compared to Republicans), it is safe to say this will stay at ten.

To Sell Lemonade Or Not To Sell-That Is The Question

Published by Papa Giorgio

From Independent Women’s Forum:

It’s not uncommon to read about heavy regulations and licensing requirements burdening small business across America, but one in particular caught my eye this week.  In Portland, Oregon, a state health inspector shut down a 7-year-old’s lemonade stand.  She was told she needed to leave or face a $500 fine.  Under state law, even a lemonade stand in your front lawn must obtain a $120 license to operate.  Another small business bites the dust.

To be fair, this lovely young girl did go to a large event and set up shop, the story tells of this:

…Technically, any lemonade stand — even one on your front lawn — must be licensed under state law, said Eric Pippert, the food-borne illness prevention program manager for the state’s public health division. But county inspectors are unlikely to go after kids selling lemonade on their front lawn unless, he conceded, their front lawn happens to be on Alberta Street during Last Thursday.

“When you go to a public event and set up shop, you’re suddenly engaging in commerce,” he said. “The fact that you’re small-scale I don’t think is relevant.”…

In my mind’s eye its sorta like the regulations about smoked covers over break lights on cars. Yes there is a danger in dimming these lights, but this isn’t enforced widely. However… it serves the police well when they want to pull someone over whom they suspect for trouble. (If only the crack houses would have lemonade stands.) I do recommend a book for parents about this very issue, where some kids set out to make some money by setting up a lemonade stand in front of their house, and they run into Hillary Clinton, Ted Kennedy, and others along the way. Very funny.

Tea Party Express vs. Reporters

This is with thanks to Tundra Tabloids.

  • Two reporters engage in a heated exchange with black conservative leaders at a press conference at the National Press Club on August 4, 2010 challenging the NAACP on its charges of racism within the tea party.

(As an aside of a comment from the above presser… If one wants to see all the camera angles during the time these congressman said the “N” word was used and the spit was issued – GO HERE.)

  • A resident of the Austin community, Jean Ray, says after 40 years of Democratic party control over the black community, the policies “are hurting,” and if there were Republicans willing to do the right job in her community, she would vote for them. (BREITBART)
