First lady's trip
So Mitt Romney is rich and therefore cannot understand the plight of the poor and middle class? Thank goodness we have someone like Michelle Obama, who, though well above middle class, still understands the plight of those less fortunate. To demonstrate just how deep her understanding was, she loaded up a bunch of her friends and spent $500,000 of taxpayers' money taking a vacation to Spain. Can you imagine how much the unemployed and the people who have lost their homes to foreclosure appreciated this selfless gesture on the part of our first lady? I'm sure that many of these folks wrote to her and thanked her for taking the vacation that they will never have.
