The Queen wants money from the poor and downtrodden.
And some how those same people will vote for them, again.
It would be comical if it wasn't so sad. On a $4M Vacation, Michelle Seeks $3 From Backers
Speaking from her paradisical $4 million Hawaii vacation, Mrs. Obama wants to know: Do any of President Obama’s supporters have $3 to spare for his reelection?
This is approximately like coming upon Warren Buffett on a street corner with a McDonald’s cup asking if he can have 15 cents.
Michelle’s request was part of an email sent to the Obama 2012 list today.
Over the next 11 months we’ve got an organization to grow, voters to register, and people to get fired up.
I hope you’ll close out this year by donating $3 or more now to help make sure we’re ready for the next one . . .
Thank you so much, and happy new year,
Michelle
The obscene juxtaposition of the first lady on a $4 million vacation while asking what would have to be middle to low income earners for three bucks – who else would they be targeting with such an appeal? – is yet another example of lack of perspective the Obamas seem to be gaining while in power.
Mrs. Obama takes extravagant vacations to Spain and southern Africa. The president golfs obsessively and is currently dining at Honolulu’s ritziest restaurants. All while asking their fellow Americans to “sacrifice” during this time of not plenty.
And they blow $4 million – mostly taxpayers’ money – on a vacation, while wondering if the small people can come up with $3.
What about renting a beach house next year at the Jersey shore? I mean, if we’re all going to sacrifice.
Michelle Obama's Hawai'i outfits include $2,000 sundress
President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle, have drawn the ire of many pundits and members of the public for the presumed price tag of their 17-day vacation to Hawai'i.

But now, the First Lady's wardrobe is the center of controversy, as Mrs. Obama was spotted in a thousand-dollar sundress while attending Christmas Day services and another pricey outfit while meeting with servicemen.
ABC News reports that the dress she wore on Christmas Day was a $2,000 Sophie Theallet sundress, while her getup while meeting with members of the Armed Forces clocked in at $950.
That's drawing the attention of many who see her choice in clothing not in line with her message of frugality and smart spending.
"Some see the first lady’s penchant for expensive labels at odds with her reputation as a bargain shopper who frequents J. Crew and Target," Luchina Fisher wrote on ABCNews.com.
