Well it has been a whole month! Just weeks after 17-day Hawaii vacation Michelle hits the slopes with daughters on Aspen ski trip. With the economy on its knees, many American families have had to forgo their annual holiday just to make ends meet. But barely a month after returning from a luxury Christmas break in Hawaii Michelle Obama is on holiday again - this time at the exclusive Colorado ski resort of Aspen. It's her 16th holiday since her husband took office. The First Lady Michelle Obama is spending Presidents' Day weekend in the upmarket resort with her daughters, Sasha and Malia, and was seen hitting the slopes - albeit apprehensively - on Saturday. The Obamas are staying at the home of Jim and Paula Crown, owners of the Aspen Skiing Co, the Daily News reported. Last year the first lady gave a speech at their home, in front of about 150 supporters. Each paid between $1,000 and $10,000 to attend the joint fundraiser for the Democratic National Committee and President Obama’s 2012 presidential campaign.

How does this explain the $100 million trust fund Romney's kids have. Geez, you're worried about a vacation, while Mitt's mutts get a life long hiatus ? Pretty funny how they could buy an island, but you're bothered, because Obama can afford a visit.

For the intelligent..... If a person "Chooses" to use the wealth they "Earned" to purchase ANYTHING they desire, it is much different than a "Public Servant" using a "Position of Authority" to attain what the Productive have earned...... Morals 101 Lesson... And the Sheeple say Babaahayahahayahha

Hey, let's cut O-Bomb-ya some slack, shall we? The Warmonger-in-Chief needs a little R&R on the taxpayers' dime. After all, undeclared wars, interventions, etc. can really take the starch out of a guy! By the way, read "Down With the Presidency" by Lew Rockwell. As Rockwell discusses, the U.S. Presidency is the most evil office on earth: http://lewrockwell.com/rockwell/down-presiden... Support Ron Paul.

You are comparing working from home vs. a vacation at a luxury resort. Sure Bush and Reagan spent far more time at their property then Obama has spent at luxury resorts, but I hope you see the difference there. Are you OK with the $4,000,000 tax payer tab for the Obama’s Hawaiian vacation? How is Ford’s vacations relevant 34 years later? I didn’t see any mention of a “great recession” associated with his vacations.

Do you think it didn't cost anything for Bush to vacation at his ranch? Where did you get the $4M figure?

Exactly, If Mr Obamas handlers allowed him th set up his "Ranch" at the ACORN Street Front Orriface in Chicago where he was Groomed as the Perfect PC Candidate, and became enriched through the selling of his soul to become the Teleprompter-Reader-In-Chief.. ..I would be all for it. The ignorant Sheeple cannot see past their own sense of Victimhood to "think" through how contemptable the role of Royalty that now is our Presidency is.

Don't even try and compare the costs between being at the private ranch vs. a public luxury resort. Is working from home (which is a lot of what Bush did) even a vacation? Also Ford was 34 years ago, why would anyone bring it up now?

Also please don't even try and say the cost of Bush working from home (which is what nearly all of his vacations were) is anywhere near what it costs to secure a public luxury resort (which is where Obama vacations). Lastly why even bring up Ford 34 year later, or expect other to compare Ford to Obama?

The Emperor Fiddles as Rome Burns!
The "Litttle Guy" the "Working Man" the "Middle Class".......Vs .......the Crony Capitalists and their Royal Presidency.
Demokrats today are the clearest illustration of "Sheeple"....You fools are "focused like a lazer" on sustaining the lifestyles to which you have become accustomed, at the expense of our children, and your productive neighbors....

But the SS does not comment on security procedures, and that includes costs, so how do you know the figures are correct? Ummm...they are both skiing vacations,so similar. What does the spread in years have to do with it?

So it's free to secure the ranch? sorry, not in the realm of reality. Again, the similarity of the skiing vacation and the recession that Ford had going at the time,(which you kinda missed)make it a relevent comparison.

Rocket Scientist, Consumption of alcohol is a mainstay of the Messiah's Presidency.....Buy a clue. By the way, real leaders have meetings and briefings, Mr Obama waits until the handlers are ready for him to read thier words, and they prop him up in front of the Teleprompter so he can earn his keep......(before the next round of beers).... Sad, but this is what you of the Victim Demokrat Party of Amerika have wrought on our country, and the world.....Develop a little shame.
