Don't mess with the WIDE LOAD FLOTUS..

..she's shovel ready and spoiling for a fight:

"Don't you be dissin' my creased-faced man that way, ya'all heah?"
Courtesy of Andrew Malcom over at The Top of the Ticket blog at the Los Angeles Times. Andrew hastens to add that this shovel ready little taxpayer funded junket comes just before WIDE LOAD gets on one of our airplanes and visits Africa on our nickel:

However, this coming week she is taking her mother and two daughters on a week-long visit to Africa, with stops and public events in South Africa and Botswana and including a private safari experience.

Have a nice flight, WIDE LOAD. Enjoy the Dark Continent for us. Don't forget to write.

UPDATE: This African junket is going to be quite an affair. She's taking her family and going all over Africa on our dime:

For her second solo international trip, the first lady has scheduled stops in South Africa and Botswana, two growing democracies, where she'll continue her work encouraging young people to get involved in national affairs. She'll also promote education, health and wellness.

The previously announced June 20-26 trip begins Monday in Johannesburg. Mrs. Obama will also stop in Pretoria and Cape Town in South Africa before moving on to Gaborone, the capital of Botswana. The trip ends with a private family safari at a South African game reserve before the return to Washington on June 27.

Here's the laugher:

White House officials said Wednesday that the trip will help advance the administration's agenda in Africa.

How about she and her husband advance the agenda of another third world country -- namely the one he's supposed to be running: The United States of America. Well, between the golf games, vacations -from-vacations, safaris, and boogie nights in the White House, we're all out of luck.

That two-day-old ham sandwich is looking better and better.

  1. Is that a real picture or a photoshop?

  2. Dear lady,

    I got it off of the Andrew Malcom blog and assume it's a real photo. Don't you just love the malevolent glower on her puss?

    Also, isn't it pathetic how they always seem to work in some political aspect of her trips with the kids and mom so that they can stick it to the American taxpayer?

    Sheeeeesh!

  3. Gotta get as many free vacations in as they can before they get the boot.
