Jets and big touring party and cold weather and motorcade, oh my: Michelle Obama leads unnecessary fossil-fueled trip to Africa

Michelle and daughters jet in - Times LIVE
Michelle Obama and her daughters Malia Ann, 13, and Sasha, 10, clearly hadn't expected the chilly weather that greeted them as they arrived at the Waterkloof Air Force Base in Pretoria last night.
...
When the formalities were over, Obama stepped into her car, separate from the rest of the family, who travelled in a different direction.

Were it not for the police and metro police vehicles that were part of a long motorcade rushing to the air base, this could have easily been somewhere in Washington DC.
