I'm told she made the trip because she promised one of her closest friends, a longtime Chicago pal who just lost her father, she would spend time with her.Mrs. Obama is the most popular figure in the Obama orbit -- and turned around her image from the 2008 presidential campaign by adamantly staying away from any kind of controversy, focusing on safe issues: combatting childhood obesity and helping military families. ...

We don't get it that the queen wasn't entitled to take a friend on an expensive vacation just because she had lost a loved one. Come on, Ms Sweet, surely you can come up with something more believable than that. She's selling but I AIN'T BUYING!!!!8/9/2010 9:36 AM CDT on suntimes.comRecommend Report AbuseUser Image lakia wrote:Michelle O - thinks she's Jackie O.8/9/2010 9:36 AM CDT on suntimes.comRecommend Report AbuseUser Image mark8585 wrote:So this douche loses a father and we have to foot the bill for her grief?

The Obamas feel they can do whatever they want. They have the keys to the castle, they believe they own it, deserve it!That's the sick mentality we are faced with. They're just a part of the entitlement crowd.http://www.emailsenators.com8/9/2010 9:34 AM CDT on suntimes.comRecommend Report AbuseUser Image lakia wrote:NO ONE in those pictures, in Spain, looked as if they were in MOURNING.

The summer started with a Memorial Day weekend trip to Chicago; the family went to the Camp David presidential retreat before July 4; they weekended in Maine, sightseeing in Acadia National Park, departing on July 16 and returning Sunday afternoon July 18. Mrs. Obama took her daughters and her mom, Marian Robinson, to Los Angeles in June. In March, over spring break, Mrs. Obama with her daughters, mom and some pals hit New York for a round of Broadway shows.
