Travel With The Obamas

While Americans are struggling to make ends meet, the Obamas have been living "high on the hog" at taxpayers' expense.

Recently, Barack and Michelle Obama came to Los Angeles in separate planes. Michelle Obama has just concluded a junket trip to Japan and Cambodia, also at the expense of taxpayers.

Just a quick update, as you organize to file your income taxes, on the Obama family's lavish travel expenses that your money is underwriting. Financing might be a better word. 

Barack and Michelle Obama have traveled more than any other first couple -- doing Spain, Africa, China, South America, among other distant spots. Often they're accompanied by friends and Michelle Obama's Mom, Marian Robinson, who's been living in the White House at taxpayer expense since her son-in-law's inauguration. And in some cases, Mrs. Robinson's friends tag along. 

By one accounting, as of last July the Obamas had spent more than $44.4 million in taxpayer money on travel for 31 international trips lasting 119 days. For comparison, at the same point in his presidency Ronald Reagan had made 14 trips lasting 73 days.
