White House Vacation Controversy: Join the Live Chat

[cnn-photo-caption image=http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2009/images/01/02/liveblogfinal.copy.jpg]

Tonight on 360°, the White House under fire for the First Lady's vacation in Spain. Plus, the testimony of supermodel Naomi Campbell in the trial of former Liberian president Charles Taylor is disputed by her agent and a famous actress. And, a flight attendant is under arrest after he allegedly got in a fight with a passenger, yelled insults over the plane's PA system and then made a dramatic exit on the plane's emergency slide. We can't make this stuff up.

    LOL I appreciate the "fightin' " by the transcriber.

    Palin has memorized her little speech about why she left very well. We all know it was just for the money. She left to make more money as a star than as a governor.

    What is wrong with Palin telling that truth? I don't know. She's got 5 kids, one of them a single mother, and that's a lot of kids to feed and educate. She could try telling the truth and see how that goes.

    It's possible that Naomi Campbell didn't fully understand the significance of the diamonds when she first received them. As a notable person, she would be upset that a dictator would be dragging her into his activities.

    The prosecutor herself noted that she possibly is afraid of Charles
    Taylor.

    The Hague prosecutor's pt about other witnesses is heartwrenching and brings home the seriousness of the trial.

    Good night everyone.

    Is Michelle taking her daughter to see friends and learn a little manners and protocol such a big deal....Bush went to the ranch more than he stayed at the white house and had lots of barbeques, Leave them alone.

    Why does it matter that she went on vacation? It seems a little ridiculous that this is even news. If my husband was the president, I'd be going to Spain too. Big deal! Let it be!

    Anderson I wish you would tell us again what the sign says, I can not read it. Just typical Palin. Sad that she reflects a bad attitude toward teachers.
