What would you expect? Her husband promised wealth re-distribution and being black, she's entitled to some of it.

I bet when Obama moves out, they'll find old boxes of Churches fried chicken bones stashed away in all the closets, too.

Mrs. Obama, her daughters, and her mother spent March 19 – 26 in China, in a trip highlighted by extended visits to some of the country’s most popular tourist sites. Mrs. Obama, her mother and daughters toured China, she stayed in Beijing’s Westin Hotel in a suite costing you $8,400 per night.
