A conservative legal group is suing the U.S. Air Force for access to first lady Michelle Obama's travel records from a 2010 vacation to Spain.

Judicial Watch filed suit Tuesday in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia for access to all records pertaining to an August 2010 vacation taken by the first lady and her daughters — including cost estimates and passenger manifests.

"Evidently, American taxpayers were stuck with a sizable bill so Mrs. Obama could tour around Spain with her family and friends, This administration, as a supposed steward of taxpayer dollars, has an obligation to disclose the full costs of the Obama family’s luxury trip," said Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton in a statement.

The White House has insisted that the Spanish vacation was paid for by the Obama family — but taxpayers generally pick up the tab for security and other assorted costs.

Am I suffering from Vuja de or has this happened before?

If I recall, the jist of the previous one is the travel details are held as a National Security matter. Piss off.

The same type of accommodations, dining options, etc. accorded every US President's family are "luxury" for the Obama's.

Unless the Obamas are confined to the servants quarters, they are living in luxury. :roll:

I am just sick of these racist assholes.

Of course they're luxuries. These are the same people who turn their heads and get suspicious everytime a black man passes in a luxury car.

They won't get the records. the records of secret service are off limits.

It's not like Laura Bush or other First Ladies didn't travel. This is just an election smear.

Do the right wingers realise that mos of the living expenses of the first family are paid by the first family? They are billed for food in the White House, etc. It's not all living off of the taxpayers dime. Sure, we pay for the house and probably the cost of maintaining the house, but most of what they do in the private quarters and on vacations is covered by them. Security is, as it should be, paid for by the govt.

I filed a FOIA request about how the FLOTUS made the trip, and this is the response I got:
