I believe that she babysits the kids. Which is why she lives in the WH.

And yes, I do believe that they separate the expenses. I'm sure she gets a few freebies for traveling with the President, but that is no different than any other Administration. And I don't have a problem with it. How do you think GWB was getting back and forth to Crawford? Do you think he always traveled alone? Not likely. But, so what?

And I do believe that when they fly AFOne they do pay a reduced rate. But, I don't have a problem with that either -- since the President if traveling anyway the plane is going to be used. There was an article recently on Eatocracy about flying on AF One. Understand it is first rate, as well it should be.

If you want moral outrage, then why don't you focus on the traveling done by Congressional Delegations? Lots more money wasted there, and what do we get out of it?
