Yet another vacation on the taxpayer's dime.

"First lady Michelle Obama, her mother and two daughters are bound for London, Milan and Venice, Italy, the White House announced Thursday..

The weeklong trip will run June 15-21. Also on tap is a visit with U.S. military personnel and their families in Vicenza, Italy.

In London, the first lady will meet with students and discuss how the United Kingdom and the U.S. are working together to expand access to girls' education around the world, the announcement said.

In Milan, she will lead a presidential delegation to the World's Fair, Milan Expo 2015, and tout a commitment to a healthier U.S. Plans call for her to tour the USA Pavilion, "American Food 2.0: United to Feed the Planet," and take part in activities to hike efforts to support healthier families and communities, the announcement said.

In Vicenza, the visit with U.S. troops is on her schedule. Visits to cultural sites in Venice also are part of the trip."

"$100,000 a day for Michelle O's Italy, England trip"

"The bill for the summer-work vacation of first lady Michelle Obama, accompanied to England and Italy by her daughters, mom, and staff, should easily top her entourage's 2010 trip to Spain that cost an eye-popping $467,000.

While the White House didn't provide cost estimates for the week-long visit to London, Milan, Venice, and Vincenza, Italy, the State Department put lodging costs for just a couple nights in Venice at $128,781, according to Free Beacon, and Air Force charges based on a 2012 document for flying her group on past overseas trips indicate that this one will hit $243,000.

Those charges alone total $371,781. Add in the still unknown lodging costs in London and Milan, based on the Venice hotel charges, and the price should top $600,000, or about $100,000 a day.

And that's just for taxpayer funded airfare and lodging and doesn't include security, staff and other transportation and food."

The Obama family, all of them, are trailer trash, especially that whiny, suffering ever so much Michelle.
