The trip to Spain

It is interesting with our economy still in a downturn and not expanding, people not spending, except government of course, that our First Lady and 40 of her friends decided to fly to Spain for a short vacation. Also included in the trip was a large detachment of secret service agents for a total of approximately 60 people. With the cost to taxpayers of at least $375,000 one would think that this money could have been better spent in this country at resort where it would have been a spike for a local economy. Instead, our tax dollars flow overseas. When President Obama indicated redistribution of wealth, he did not mean his wealth, but the taxpayer dollars for overseas fun and games. Now I know the lamestream outlets will spin this, but if the truth be known, we know that the First Lady had to go overseas since George Bush made her do it.
