Barack Obama’s Mutual Sacrifice & Fairness … First Lady Michelle’s Ski Trip Marks 16 Obama Vacation

FAIRNESS MR. PRESIDENT? AMERICA, YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO AFFORD A VACATION … BUT THAT DOES NOT STOP BARACK AND MICHELLE OBAMA.

President Barack Obama talks of class warfare,  the 1% vs. the 99%, and fairness. However, Michelle Obama’s ski trip to Aspen, CO marks the 16th Obama vacation. Just curious America, how many of you have taken 16 vacations in the last three years? President Obama, you like to talk of fairness … is it fair that you and yours take 16 vacations on the tax payers dime when most not only have not taken 16 vacations, many have not even taken 16 days. That is if they are lucky enough to be employed.Granted former President GWB took many vacation days as well’ however, they were mostly “staycations” on his ranch in Crawford, TX.

First lady Michelle Obama’s weekend jaunt to Aspen, Colorado for a President’s Day ski holiday with her daughters Sasha and Malia makes the 16th time members of the first family have gone on extended vacations during their three years in office.

But his have become more controversial because of the costs associated with moving the first family to a public vacation spot, unlike the Bushes to their remote ranch in Crawford, Texas. For example, the Hawaii Reporter said the first family’s 2011 Christmas vacation in Hawaii would exceed $1.5 million.

Critics and even some in his own party say the vacations present a bad image at a time when many Americans are struggling to get by during the recession. According to recent Harris poll, only three in 10 said they plan to take a vacation lasting longer than a week in the next six months, and that number has been dropping during the recession as people worry about the costs of vacations. Other polls have found that less than half of all Americans take all the vacation time they earn because they can’t afford trips.

Check out Obama’s Vacation List HERE. Honestly, how out of touch is Barack and Michelle Obama? Who in their right mind takes an Aspen vacation after already having just been on a  17 day trip to Hawaii that cost taxpayers $4 million. How do these people claim a populist campaign with a straight face? They talk of the evil 1% … if you have not figured it out, Barack and Michelle are the 1%. You might want to remember this lack of empathy in the 2012 Presidential election when casting your vote.

It’s good to be King & Queen … Hope and Change, eh?

More Lack of Shared Sacrifice from Michelle Obama … Heads Off to Ski in Aspen with the 1%

Michelle Obama … let them eat “fairness”.

Where is the MSM asking the question to Barack Obama, is it fair that you and your family continually take vacations on the tax payers dime when they cannot afford to? Is it fair that Michelle Obama goes skiing in Aspen? Is it fair that Obama nor Michelle provide no shared sacrifice, yet the President constantly asks for others to do so.

First Lady Michelle Obama once again she cares little about shared sacrifice and fairness. That is just political rhetoric and class warfare used by her husband Barack Obama to divide America. Queen Michelle heads off to Aspen, Colorado with her daughters to ski and hand out with the 1%. What an absolute joke that her hubby Barack espouses that he is the defender of the middle class and the poor when this President, his wife and first family continually live “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous”.

Michelle Obama has embarked on a skiing vacation with her daughters in Aspen, Colorado, according to the Aspen Daily News.

The first lady, who just returned last month from 17 days of relaxation in Hawaii, is skiing in Colorado on Presidents’ Day Weekend for the second year in a row. Last year she went to Vail.

Michelle’s decision to ski out West again instead of hitting slopes closer to Washington would seem an inopportune choice for a first lady who is helping her husband campaign on issues of “fairness.”

The Obama campaign has set itself up as the defender of the poor and the middle class against the “One Percent,” a theme which clashes with the image a first lady who is taking frequent and exclusive vacations.

Barack Obama says that every one is going to have to sacrifice and have skin in the game. With all due respect Mr. President, exactly what skin do you or Michelle have in the game? What have either of you sacrificed?

As the Lonely Conservative states, what a shocker that the First Lady wants to keep this vacation low key and below the radar. What a joke. Barack and Michelle Obama might be the biggest hypocrites that have ever “dis”graced the White House.

Honestly, how can any fool think that these people speak for them? Barack and Michelle Obama are the 1% and they enjoy hobnobbing with them in places like Aspen and Martha’s Vineyard. Get a clue America. As the Gateway Pundit reminds us, didn’t these folks just go on a vacation to Hawaii?  There is nothing populist about either one of these two, they just like keeping individuals are each others throats with class warfare as a diversion to what they do and believe in.

Mr. President, is it fair that Michelle Obama and your kids get to go to Aspen while 99.9% of Americans cannot?

If Elected Mitt Romney Would Be One of the Most Richest Presidents Ever

Here is one for Barack Obama’s class warfare campaign ads …

If nominated and then elected President, Mitt Romney would be among one of the richest Presidents ever. I can see it now, Obama referring to Romney as the 1% President and playing the class warfare game. What else does Obama have, he certainly cannot run on his record.

GW beats me by this much

However, guess who is the richest President ever elected, adjusted for inflation … that would be the Father of our country, George Washington of course.

Just how rich is Mitt Romney? Add up the wealth of the last eight presidents, from Richard Nixon to Barack Obama. Then double that number. Now you’re in Romney territory.

He would be among the richest presidents in American history if elected — probably in the top four.

Of course Obama and other Leftists might have a bit of an issue using this type of class warfare seeing that former Democrat President JFK was worth more than Romney. I wonder if George Washington had to provide his tax returns back in 1788? Before the Leftists wingbats go nuts with comments, obviously there were no tax returns.

Ask yourself what is worse … having one of the richest Presidents ever elected during a terrible economy or one that just promotes class warfare and has had 3.5 years to accomplish something and have done little to none.
