Here is his article about our current First Lady. 

What on earth can Michelle Obama possibly be tired from? What has she done
since her husband was elected that gives her one reason to be tired?  I know
that flying, for the proletariat such as myself, can be tiring and, more
times than not, a genuine pain – but she flies in presidential luxury, sans
the president.  And the only checkin’ in and full-body scan she goes through
at an airport is when she looks at herself in a mirror. 

We, the taxpayers of this great nation, demand to know just what it is that
has her royalness so worn out and tired, that after just enjoying a lavish
17-day Hawaiian Christmas vacation (that cost taxpayers $4 million), she
needs another vacation at one of the most exclusive (and anti-union) resorts
in the country. 

It cannot be that she is overworked because, if the liberal Los Angeles
Times is to be believed, between them, the Obamas have 454 White House
aides, at a cost to the taxpayers of more than $37 million annually – and
that doesn’t include recent pay raises.  (See: “No Recession For Obama’s 454
White House aides: They’ll make $37,121,463 this year”; Andrew Malcolm, July
5, 2011.)  And before you ask – yes, that is more than President and Mrs.
Bush had, and I was one of the lone voices decrying the small size and cost
of Laura Bush’s staff. 

Could Ms. Obama still be suffering fatigue from the weight of having kept
secret, for two years, her extravagant Halloween costume ball?  Even though
they used military families as a cover in case it got out, the last thing
she wanted the public to know was that, while Americans were suffering in
the depths of recession, she had the biggest players in Hollywood doing an
exclusive costume party just for herself and her family. 

Or perhaps it’s the lingering effects of taking her mother and daughters to
South Africa and Botswana, or the sheer exhaustion of rushing out of
Washington, four hours ahead of her husband, so she wouldn’t have to share
her presidential jet with him on the way to Martha’s Vineyard for their
annual beach break. 

Then again, maybe she was exhausted from her personal $50,000 underwear
shopping spree with the queen of Qatar, at Agent Provocateur, the store that
bills itself as selling “the most erotic lingerie in the world.  Realizing
that you’re responsible for closing down Madison Avenue can be tiring, and
watching staff carry all those bags back to her limousines . whew! – that
would sure wear me out.  And after the tiring experience of picking out all
of those exotic undies, what better place to recover than an uber-posh Vail
resort and the private home owned by Paula and Jim Crown? 

Or maybe she’s worn out from rolling around on the floor to the delight of
Ellen Degeneres, or making muscles on a daytime show, or pulling on a rope
on another show, or eating at all of the restaurants where she loves to pig
it up.   

Then again, maybe Ms. Obama is just an arrogant, high-minded person who
doesn’t give a rat’s tail about propriety or how her behavior looks to a
suffering public because, after all, her husband claims the economy is
improving, and who are we going to believe – the reality of our financial
situation or her husband? 

Michelle Obama can afford to live life large since every dime she’s spending
comes on the backs and sweat of others. Nothing, zip, nada that she spends
did she personally earn. And therein is the disgusting elitism of a woman
who forgets where she came from, and dares you to remind her. 

We are responsible for the billionaire life she lives, and it’s time we
started demanding that she be accountable to us.  It’s time we started
confronting Obama at every press conference and/or speaking venue about the
behavior of his wife.  He is spending hundreds of millions of our money,
flying around the country to raise a billion dollars for his campaign war
chest, and we’re paying $4 per gallon for fuel.  We’ve lost our homes, our
mortgages are upside-down, our property taxes aren’t enough to cover the
increasing cost of infrastructure because of the drain of resources by
illegal aliens, and all of this is happening as the price of putting milk
and cereal on our tables is rising dramatically. 

But why shouldn’t she be smiling?  For the first time in her adult life, she
is proud of America – and why not?  She has tens of millions of peons paying
for her very own private reparations – now that’s enough to put a smile on
any elitist’s face! 

PASS IT ON!!!!!!
