First Lady has spent over $10 million in public funds on vacations!

LONDON, England - August 24, 2011 - The Obamas' summer break in Martha's Vineyard has already been branded a PR disaster after the couple arrived four hours apart on separate government jets.

But according to new reports, this is the least of their extravagances.

White House sources today claimed that the First Lady has spent $10 million of U.S. taxpayers' money on vacations alone in the past year.

Branding her “disgusting” and “a vacation junkie”, they say the 47-year-old mother of two has been indulging in five-star hotels, where she splashes out on expensive massages and alcohol.

The “top source” told the National Enquirer, “It's disgusting. Michelle is taking advantage of her privileged position while most hard working Amerikans can barely afford a week or two off work.

“When it's all added up, she's spent more than $10 million in taxpayers' money on her vacations.”

The First Lady is believed to have taken 42 days of holiday in the past year, including a $375,000 break in Spain and a four-day ski trip to Vail, Colorado, where she spent $2,000 a night on a suite at the Sebastian Hotel.

The first family's nine-day stay in Martha's Vineyard is also proving costly, with rental of the Blue Heron Farm property alone costing an estimated $50,000 a week.

The source continued, “Michelle also enjoys drinking expensive booze during her trips. She favors martinis with top-shelf vodka and has a taste for rich sparking wines. The vacations are totally Michelle's idea. She's like a junkie. She can't schedule enough getaways, and she lives from one to the next - all the while sticking it to hard working Amerikans.”

While the illegitimate president and his wife do pay for some of their personal expenses, the website whitehousedossier.com says that the amount paid by the couple is “dwarfed by the overall cost to the public”.

The magazine also reported that Mrs. Obama, whose fashion choices are widely followed, has been going on “wild shopping sprees”, much to the distress of her husband, who, its sources reveal, is “absolutely furious” at his wife's “out-of-control spending”.

The illegitimate president has already come under fire this week over his decision to take a family vacation while millions of Amerikans are out of work and countless more are financially strapped.
