Why Does Michelle Obama’s Mother Live at the White House?

Only 1,034 days until the GRIFTERS are out of the White House!

Its called bitter white people's syndrome. Very prevalent among the less educated in history and the lower IQ crowd

Now to educate the Ignorant

4 presidential in-laws who moved to White House - CNN.com

ah yes, and here we get the typical uppity left condescending syndrome we are all accustomed to

makes me want to read his links he provides...not

in fact I've had enough of it...see ya

Maybe some of the other conservatives on the board can help us on this one

Is the hatred of those who take care of elderly parents a conservative value or is it just a sick, twisted hatred coming out of Stephanie?

It's not a conservative or liberal value here, it's more of a taxpayers value. We all take care of our elderly parents, since they took care of us. What I have issue with is the in-law flying out to China at 8000 bucks a night, and the bill for her expense being footed by the taxpayer. The President earns a salary, he should be paying for his in-laws trip, and her personal expenses.

When I have business meetings at an upscale restaurant, I charge it to the company. Now I'll start inviting my mother-in-law to these meetings, and still foot the entire bill to the company. Wonder how the company shareholders, or more importantly the IRS will react to the extra expense?

A penny?


We know that she goes about her life, and Secret Service have to accompany her, not to mention all the trips that she's been on with the first family, including the $8000 per night stay in China where she's making life uncomfortable for hotel staff.

Her expenses when factoring in food, lodging, trips, secret service, easily comes to 1 million per year. That is 8 million for the two 4 year terms. I don't know about you, but in my book 8 million bucks comes out to more than a penny per taxpayer.

Do you think the first family would prefer to live in a world where they didn't need round the clock security?

They could have that. It's called don't let the door hit you in the ass when you leave. They would just have to give up the luxurious lifestyle to which they feel is their due. If they weren't in a position to get round the clock security no hotel in China would let them dirty the sheets.

The first family putting up with round the clock security is more of their concession to us rather than our concession to them

The lady is 76 years old. If her daughter's family were not the first family, she would be living with them because that is how the Obama's do it: they don't leave the elderly on their own or in a rest home. So she is living with her family, as we would, most of us, prefer to do all over America, keep our parents with us. Why do you begrude her this? Why do you want to send her off to live alone or in a nursing home? What is wrong with your? Any costs involved to the American taxpayer are acutely minimal. This is very sad, very sad indeed.

That is why it shocks me that conservatives would sink so low as to complain about an extended family in the White House. Even conservatives should have some degree of family values

You would think so, but their desire to criticize the President knows no limits, including worshiping a communist dictator and wanting to put an old woman in a nursing home or to fend for herself in loneliness.

This is old news. It was well known in 2008 that Obama's mother-in-law came with the package deal.

and you're fine paying for her room and board?
why don't they move in all their family members, you can enjoy paying for them too

Fuck no.

Just because Conservatives put their grandmothers into old age homes is no reason the Obamas should

We all know conservatives lack family values

It was obama who answered a question from a lady that asked him, my 90 year old mother needs a new hip, should she get a new one? Obama says, just give her a pain pill. Obamacare won't cover cancer treatment at the best cancer hospitals. So i guess liberals have started a war on old people.

Its just the blind hate from conservatives where they will even attack values they claim to profess

Can you imagine the Conservative outrage if the Obamas stuck their mother in law in an old age home?

I am unaware of any insurance company that will pay for a hip replacement on a 90 year old....are you?

There is no such thing as an "Obamacare" policy. Each state sets up its own policies. Some are bronze, silver, gold or platinum. Your premium and coverage will vary. Now, if you want your state to set up a policy that covers trips to the Mayo clinic, I'm sure it can be done

The Obama's have no shame in taking advantage of you taxpayers...this is something else I have never seen before

Here’s a question I’ll bet nobody ever asked Jay Carney at a White House press briefing: Why does Michelle Obama’s mother live at the White House at taxpayer expense? (If someone has asked, please send link for me to stand corrected.)

Now that Michelle Obama’s mother has caused a disruption on the latest exotic vacation for the first lady, perhaps it is time for some answers about why Marian Robinson is even on the trip to China. Worse, why is she appearing in official photographs with Chinese officials?

Drudge is reporting in big bold lead letters that Marian Robinson is barking orders at hotel staff and generally misbehaving.

How many Americans know that Michelle Obama’s mother is living at the White House at taxpayer expense? Not many, I’d guess.

all of it here

The PJ Tatler » Why Does Michelle Obama?s Mother Live at the White House?

Desperation simply doesn't become you. She is a member of their family, sort of like their kids, you stupid twit.

But I tell you what put me right over the top, honey. It's when they got that damn dog. You see how much that thing eats? And leaves piles on the White House lawn the size of your mama's telephone.

Those evil insurance companies, huh? I'm aware that my 91 year old gets what she needs, but she hasn't needed anything since obamacare, we will see. Onething we do know under obamacare you will get a pain pill. So, why do you hate old people? Another thing, my grandmother lives with my mom, with no tax payers expense. They are both conservative.

All Obamacare policies are underwritten by an insurance company. If your 91 yr old mother had a recent hip replacement covered tell us all about it. There are no old people covered under Obamacare

Medicare parts A& B will cover a hip replacement....

Too subtle is this post which would require a dumbass to have introspect.

omg, go get a tissue

it was a legitimate question...but to you on the left no one can question the Dear royalty in the white house

 

[S.J.]

When I was a kid, we had my Grandfather come and live with us after my grandmother died

Is that just a liberal value or do conservatives do it too?

Did you make your neighbor pay for it?

What was the question?

Why should a grandparent live with her daughter and grandchildren?
