Disclose the exact dollar amount it costs to leave Michelle Obama in Hawaii for a birthday present and bring her to D.C.

Created by M.D. on January 05, 2014

President Obama decided to give Michelle the birthday present of leaving her in Hawaii while he returns to Washington D.C.

During the Jan 4th radio broadcast of the president he stated, "Just a few days after Christmas, more than one million of our fellow Americans lost a vital economic lifeline – the temporary insurance that helps folks make ends meet while they look for a job. Republicans in Congress went home for the holidays and let that lifeline expire. And, for many of their constituents who are unemployed through no fault of their own, that decision will leave them with no income at all."

A statement made while the president himself is on vacation and spending tax $ on bday's?

Who pays, what amount does it cost and by what means, does the first lady return to Washington D.C.?
