    Michelle Bachman is paying $50 million a day of taxpayer money on cosmetics

    This [1] source says she's spending maybe OVER $50 million a day of taxpayer money on cosmetics! This is completely outrageous!

    Check out the first video here. http://crooksandliars.com/david-neiw...s-voice-rights

    While she does say crazy things one can not help but notice those full, glossy lips and the movement of her cheeks while she speaks. Mute the sound and just watch the lips moving. Then imagine those beautiful eyes looking up at you.

    Those cosmetics are definitely doing their job.

    We all know this is ridiculous, but the right will continue to tell us how Obama was going to spend 2 billion to go to India. Beck, Rush and Bachman have been reporting this for days, shit Bachman was on 360 last night spouting it again, and it's not true.

    A bit of transparency would resolve this. However, I laughed when I read that 34 warships were going there... I mean, come on. That's a bit over 10% of our entire Navy's resources in that area...

    It certainly wouldn't put the President in danger to know the actual accounting for the cost of such a trip.

    A bit of transparency would resolve what? There is nothing to resolve. The claims being made are transparently bullshit.

    President Obama's trip to India will cost the U.S. $200m-a-day, it was reported today.

    The visit - part of a 10-trip to Asia - will take place amid unprecedented levels of security in the city of Mumbai, where terrorists killed at least 173 people two years ago.

    Extreme measures to ensure the safety of President Obama will include the complete booking of the 570-room Taj Mahal Hotel for his security entourage

    We've all seen that article and we are all well aware that it is suitable for use as fertilizer and little else.

    Tom Prendergasp! will be able to vouch for the veracity of these claims from this bastion of credible news!

    However it still doesn't answer the question, how much is the full price of the trip?

    The point being dorkamus is that conservatives did not make it up, they merely seized upon what was being reported as dems themselves have done myriads of times as well. Perhaps if the "supposedly most transparent WH" would actually try being transparent???

    Well it must be working. She looks really good and is a winner.

    Now on to the more serious stuff....I absolutely hate the sort of stuff about the trip Obama is making. Beck, Limbaugh and the like need to shut up and find something else to talk about. Their claims are outrageous.

    WOW, that is almost as much as Obama is paying for his Indian vacation!
    An Egyptian writer, Ptah Hotep, put patriarchal beliefs as clearly as
    anyone in the early civilizations: "If you are a man of note, found for
    yourself a household, and love your wife at home, as it beseems. Fill her
    belly, clothe her back. . . . But hold her back from getting the mastery.
    Remember that her eye is her stormwind, and her vulva and mouth are her
    strength."

    Then it is true! Especially if you got if from a conservative website!

    "Transparency" doesn't require the White House to give out every piece of irrelevant information requested by a bunch of knownothing jackasses. In all my years I have never heard of anyone questioning the cost of a president's diplomatic trips abroad. Not once.
