The first round takes Mrs. Obama to friendly Democratic territory. She returns to the arena of partisan politics on Oct. 13, with fundraisers in Milwaukee for Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.) and in her native Chicago to benefit Democratic Senate candidate Alexi Giannoulias and three House candidates from suburban districts who are in the toughest Illinois races: Rep. Debbie Halvorson (D-Ill.), Rep. Bill Foster (D-Ill.) and nominee Dan Seals.I cringe when I think how much of my taxes will go to pay for Michelle's travels to campaign. I don't care if she travels to support any Dem but honestly does the taxpayer have to pay for this??? It's not only her but her mother, her cooks, beauticians, doctors, relatives, friends, etc. All this on our dime when millions are out of work, losing their homes, can't afford to send children to college, increase in taxes and on and on. Yet, the Obama's are privledged to use our tax $ to fly about the country to support the Dems. Now is that FAIR? Of course, people will claim they pay for it--Yeah, I heard that about her trip to Spain as well--She paid the US taxpayer for the cost of what a 1st class ticket would cost--Right--is that all it cost us?

Anything to remind voterrs that we need to get rid of all the worthless politicans, Democrats and Republicans alike.

Just another opportunity to show us more of those "booby belts" that she loves so much. I find it hard to believe that her popularity is so high after that trip to Spain. Most likely more fluff from the media.

September 21 2010 at 7:43 PM Report abuse Permalink +29 rate up rate down ReplyThe left media still reports Mrs. Obama has favorable ratings, right. Give her a chance and she will speak the truth, like how much she hates this country and how she thinks her husband ‘s gang of idiots knows what we really need since we’re too stupid to figure it out for ourselves. These people are socialist and now Mrs. Obama is personally trying to ruin an American corporation that hires thousands, McDonald, with the pretence that we need to be told what we should eat. Class warfare Redistribution of wealth Nanny state Socialism All add up to the Obama’s
September 21 2010 at 7:30 PM Report abuse Permalink +27 rate up rate down ReplyShe needs to start from her husband, his eating habits is worst as next person in line, "maybe worse",,, not to mention, smoke, drink so who she kidding!
September 21 2010 at 7:41 PM Report abuse Permalink +21 rate up rate down ReplyRay - Mrs BO LOVES this country right now. She will hate it again when BO looses and have to pay for their vacations out of their own pockets.
September 21 2010 at 7:41 PM Report abuse Permalink +22 rate up rate down ReplyOkay. And who determines the productiveness of the conversationsS? So now we no longer have freedom of speech? Like for instance, is Miz Michelle gwine take her servants along on the trail as she boards the multimillion dollar jet. And do her servants ever say to her, "ya'sum, Miz Michelle." "Yo bath water is ready," What a hoot. And is Obama going to send for all his aliens and bring them here for keeps? He is an alien, you know. He never showed that he was born. Ever checked to see if he has a Navel? Must not have.
September 21 2010 at 7:23 PM Report abuse Permalink +21 rate up rate down ReplyIf her endorsements equal that of her husband she wont remain popular with the democrats for very long either.
