How many tax-payer paid trips do you suppose the Obama family, and/or part thereof, have taken?

I don't know either but it's been a heap. I resent having to pay for Obama's and Michelle's extravagant life styles, but particularly THIS one!

What no spring break facilities in the United States ?!

What kind of idiot parents would send their child off to a place that is supposedly off limits by the State Department?

Absolutely Infuriating!

After driving the U.S. more deeply into debt than any other President, want to know where Obama’s 13 year-old daughter is right now with 12 friends?

On “spring break” in Oaxaca Mexico , on your dime!

She took two jets and 25 secret service men. A thirteen year-old?
Why haven’t you heard about it?

The Obama Administration has had the Secret Service scouring the web ordering that any website mentioning this be taken down because letting the travel plans out could endanger the president’s daughter’s security.

Nonsense!

The “royal couple” just want to hide the way they are ripping off the U. S. taxpayer (Be sure to read the two links below if they are still operative)

Only a few Canadian Web-sites still have it up, one was taken down while I was viewing it.

The Obama’s are laughing at the “suckers” who are funding their Imperial Lifestyle. This trip will cost more than most Americans make in their entire lifetimes.

thats the way dictators operate... i guess the government has the money for it.... wait, the deficit is above the GNP and we just got downgraded again... did anyone tell obama we are short on money??

they could have this trip without the presidency , MEXICO is an extremely cheap trip,,,


the protection is not something I can disapprove of as a parent myself, 13 year old girls who are the 'presidents' children are highly susceptible in a place like Mexico,,,even everyday citizens have been kidnapped and killed traveling there

Then they should have not gone to Mexico, what's wrong with Canada?

maybe you should define "cheap"...

well we took a one week CRUISE all along the coast for about 750 for two people

thats pretty cheap

they bring in more CASH income on their own than the presidents salary,,,,

since they have to live at the white house and live their lives from there,, the cost of protection and what goes with it is unavoidable,,,

The average cost of one hour of flying time of presidential aircraft is $60,000 dollars per plane. Security and accompanying staff is over twice that per day. There is also the expense of the local gov't visited for protections, losses of revenue and facilitation that must be paid.

This spring break for his daughter I think I read was around $4 Million dollars plus.....IT WAS NO $750 CRUISE LINE TRIP!

what presidents children would be able to travel with the same anonymity and peace that me and my family did?

the costs for travel and protection are factors of the position that has long existed before this administration

Sure, and let welfare people eat caviar and porterhouse steaks on food stamp vouchers.....why not? Same diff!

Totally disconnected from the realities of the hardships and struggles of the people he represents, this pres continues to read the teleprompter without a clue to it's words! Continues the policies bringing us to the brink of our destruction.

Get a clue on this one MsH! 3 years in office, more "vacations" on taxpayer dime than any 1st family before them, during times more economic distress than any other time in history.

THEY ARE NOT ROYALS! THEY ARE RESPRESENTATIVES! What this "represents", is wasteful disconnection from the problems of his country!

Ron Paul has been in congress for 28 years AND NEVER taken a single "vacation" at taxpayer expense He also will not take the retirement plan allowed congressmen. He won't even accept secret service protection as a candidate at taxpayer expense....calls it "welfare"!

NOW THAT IS A REPRESENTITIVE OF THE PEOPLE!

it's not unavoidable, and it costs way more than 750 dollars. 2 fully loaded jets, and paying for all the "entourage" that accompanies them, the "presidential" suites at the hotels, and all the other costs... in the millions, and you know it...

I can't wait until Romney becomes pres

Are you really defending the trip? You say its cheap then when you hear the cost of presidential planes you say well they cant fly normal airplanez. Well they shouldn't be vacationing on tax payer dollars either. Serioussly I didn't go on a spring break Mexico trip ever much less at 13.

i guess the hotels and resturants in the US didn't need any of that money, it's better to spend it in another country. Barry seems dumber than bush sometimes... King barry rules, and his rule is law...
