During her trip, the First Lady will meet with Madame Peng, the spouse of China’s President Xi Jinping. She will also visit a university and a high school in Beijing, and a high school in Chengdu.

During the trip to China, as on previous international trips to Africa, Asia, Europe and Latin America, the First Lady will be focusing on the power and importance of education, both in her own life and in the lives of young people in both countries.


She will also be visiting important historical and cultural sites in China, and will share with students in the U.S. the stories of the students she meets in China, as well as interesting facts about China’s history and culture – emphasizing the importance of students learning from one another globally.

Washington, DC * 2:00 PM – As part of her focus on education and reaching out to students for her upcoming trip to China, First Lady Michelle Obama will visit the Washington Yu Ying Public Charter School – a Chinese-immersion, International Baccalaureate, elementary school in Washington, DC. At the event, Mrs. Obama will encourage students around the U.S. to follow her trip. The First Lady will deliver brief, informal remarks following a 6th grade presentation on their 2013 trip to China. The First Lady will also visit with pre-Kindergarten students in their classroom to experience their language learning firsthand. The First Lady’s remarks and the 6th grade presentation will be open press; the visit with Pre-Kindergarten students will be covered by a pool.


Yu Ying – meaning nurturing excellence – takes its name from a groundbreaking girls school founded in 1911 in Beijing, China. Established by a former Imperial Lady-in-Waiting, Madame Tzen-Kuei Wang, the Yu Ying School offered classroom education at a time when the centuries-old tutorial system was still the norm in China. The school was a powerful force for educational change in China.

Evidently the back lash from the Mexico trip last year didn't sink in with them.

This definitely sends the wrong message.

They probably feel the girls would be safer with the Chinese than anywhere near any Republicans. They are probably right.

What is wrong with you? Seriously. Can you not remember one fucking thing before 2009? Seriously? Do I have to constantly hold the mirror of stupidity up to your faces?

Now, wipe that egg off your face and try to remember the Olympic games in Beijing.

Oh, and remember.....He and HIS FAMILY were not obligated to go. YOU paid for his trip anyway. Got it?

Backlash? Republicans think if they lie enough and rile up their ignorant and braindead base, then the entire country is "riled up". Get over it. Republicans were convinced that Obama would lose last time and Obama won decisively. The GOP is self deluded.

Or on drugs. I can never remember which. Course, neither can he, which I guess is the point.

 

[SmedlyButler]

An educational trip to China? During spring break? Can't they at least pretend to be "real Americans"?

 

[CaféAuLait]

I’m going to comment on this the same way I did on the last thread about this. I would think that left, right and middle and anyone I’ve not mentioned can agree. The article below speaks of Clinton, Bush and Obama. Between the three of them, they took a measly 3 trips and spent at least 126 million in taxpayer dollars, for three trips. ONLY THREE.

Cost of Obama's Trip is Dwarfed By George And Laura Bush's Africa Spending Spree


There should be some oversights. Its asinine taxpayers should be responsible for ANY president spending so much money, let alone 42 million on average for one damn trip. It’s past disgusting. I would think that everyone can agree on such, instead of trying to ‘one up’ the other party.

They don't need to pretend. They are "real" Americans. Just like their dad.

Hmmm... I wonder if His Royal Majesty is aware that the air in most of the major Chinese Cities is pretty much toxic to everything except rats & cockroaches. Why the heck anybody would send their family to China on vacation without equipping them with hazmat suits is a mystery, on the other hand he's never been known for his common sense.

And where is Obama sending his girls for Spring Break this year? China.

Yeah, it's cool for Nixon to make friends with China, but not Obama.

 

[OriginalShroom]

There is nothing that Obama can do that will bother the left.

Under President Bush, a $9 Trillion debt was the end of the world, Obama adds another $9 Trillion and the left not only silent, they excuse it.
