First Lady Spending Out of Control

Article first published as First Lady Spending Out of Control on Technorati.

Let’s stop the madness. Everyone is fighting and arguing about who is spending what and where the cut backs should be. Each person wants to cut someone else’s budget. Gov. Wilson wants to cut off the Unions in WS and the U.S. House wants to cut Planned Parenthood funding. Yes they are a start to the problem and will help in the long run but what about right now? There is something that can be done right now that will help. Something that would help set the example for Republicans and Democrats alike. Cut Michelle Obama OFF!!

Her Spending:

Personal Staff over $1.2million (annual)

A pair of “just shoes” as her staffer said $540

New York Date Night $250k

Skiing trip to Colorado around $100k

Trip to Spain $375k

I really love what Elena Gorgan has to say in Michelle Obama’s Spending Is Out of Control, Criticized

She agrees that in a time of our country’s failing economy and with unemployment at an all time high, the spending has to end. Michelle Obama has plans to redecorate the White House and their Chicago Home that are helping to outrageous to tax payers. It is said that Pres. Obama has been told to control Michelle’s spending. Otherwise it could jeopardize his chances of re-election.

With just these few overly outrageous expensive trips or lifestyle choices Michelle makes daily you (any tax payer) have to wonder what the heck is going on. These are things that “We The People” are having to pay for. The only thing I can think is when her husband ran on a platform of Hope and Change what he really meant was “honey, hope you like the change I am making for your life.” I would like to see Michelle make some cuts in her budget. Then at least I would feel as though the country was headed in the right direction. You know they say, “Behind every Great man is a Great woman.” Well, it looks like right now the woman is in charge and spiraling out of control.
