Mr. President! Have you no shame sir? Have you no shame at all?

Loading

Today, we can all agree, our country is currently in an economic hole.

For a wide variety of reasons we are facing very difficult decisions ahead.

After senselessly wasting trillions of our hard earned money and having nothing to show for it beyond an increased debt load, Mr. Obama recently claimed that he was going to focus on debt and deficit reduction.

If that is true, then why, oh why Mr. President are you leaving on a trip which will cost us $200 million per day?

Mumbai: The US would be spending a whopping $200 million (Rs. 900 crore approx) per day on President Barack Obama’s visit to the city.

“The huge amount of around $200 million would be spent on security, stay and other aspects of the Presidential visit,” a top official of the Maharashtra Government privy to the arrangements for the high-profile visit said.

About 3,000 people including Secret Service agents, US government officials and journalists would accompany the President. Several officials from the White House and US security agencies are already here for the past one week with helicopters, a ship and high-end security instruments.

$200 million per day?

Dozens of aircraft? Hundreds of hotel rooms? Three thousand plus in the traveling entourage? Multiple Marine One helicopters which must be taken apart, flown over to India, and then reassembled?

Mr. President, please allow me to speak for a large portion of the American people for just a moment.

Have you no shame sir? Just stay home.

We work hard for the dollars that you, and your Congress, are frittering away so carelessly and cavalierly.

We the People provide you with some pretty fancy living arrangements there at 1600. You should just stay home.

Stay home and work on what is important.

Better yet, stay home, go play some golf, and save us $200 million per day in the process.

If there’s something really important that you need to discuss with the folks in India, pick up the phone and call them.

And yet, ladies and gentlemen, I think we are happy too early, because, in my view, these elections were not for Republicans, but rather against Obama and his socialism. (Oh how I hate Socialism!)
Now specifically should think about 2012, who Republicans have a real candidate for president?
Palin?
I think not, then who?

Mitch Daniels, Herman Cain, Haley Barbour, Senator DeMint, Rep. Paul Ryan, look around, there are plenty in the stable worthy of a run.

Thank you.

Isn’t Michelle worth it tho?

The Audacity of Hubris.

Michelle’s a Democrat.

can’t wait to get this fool out of the wh. he is evil and i pray that the new congress will hold his diabolical agenda at bay. we also need to get rid of valerie jerret, axelrod, janet apoliantasp? and the rest of evil empire.

thank you fellow americans for making my day! we owe this to our Lord and savior, he has given us another chance.

But on a phone call you dont have hundreds of people waiting on and catering to your every whim while your wife snaps pics for the photo album. He knows he is going to be a one term pseudo Jimmy Carter so he is going to run the tab up till he his forced from the office. He feels he is owed all this.

OF COURSE he has no shame. No leftist has any shame. Otherwise they couldn’t BE leftists!!!!

For a look at how dumb the Indian people think Obama is look at this:
http://ibnlive.in.com/news/obama-and-his-trusted-aide-to-make-their-indian-debut/134305-3.html

President Obama’s visit to India next week will be his first appearance in the Indian Parliament and he’ll be making his debut with his most trusted friend Mr Teleprompter.

November 8th 2010, central hall of Parliament, more than 780 members of our Parliament will see what they have never seen before.
US President Barack Obama’s old and trusted pal, Mr Teleprompter.

Mr TP is always by his side through thick and through thin.
It makes him angry, it makes him laugh, even massage his neck and he gets very upset if it ever takes a break.
Sometimes the pressure gets too much.
But it does with his battery what officials can’t, make him look good.

And we ask isn’t it time for our great leaders to take a cue and go the Obama way?

As Obama comes calling to woo India — he will take no chances and make no mistakes. With a billion eyes on him you can’t blame him if he turns to his trusted aide.

The photos are precious!

@Skookum:

I think Mike may be thinking of Michelle Bachmann and yes, she is worthy, they tried to Palinize her, but she’s still standing. Did you know she asked Chris Matthews “hows that leg tingle tonight?” 😉

I was just being a wise-arse. MB is one of my favorites! I laughed out loud when she cleaned Mathew’s plow and handed him his head.

Such an example of unbiased news reporting. Long live Fox News!

SKOOKS FOX NEWS unbiased. There you go being a wise-arse again.

does anyone here ever attempt to fact check anything ? Or is everyone willing to just get sucked into whatever an unnamed “top official” in India says about the costs ? The daily cost of operating am entire carrier strike group is only 1 million per day. So 3000 people would accompany the POTUS ? when you divide 3000 into $200,000,000 that works out to costing almost 70,000 dollars per day per person.Gee does that seem a bit HIGH to anyone else ??? Especially since a huge proportion of those 3000 will be local Indian police and Army personnel? And remember I graduated in the top 90% (bottom 10% of my high school class. Surely some of the more learned posters here should have been able to see that the maths was all wrong here On Oct 31st that same paper cited the total cost to be “hundreds of thousands of pounds” per day “But the extent of the trip to India – which could run up a bill of hundreds of thousands of pounds – is unlikely to win over hard-up swing voters in the US.” http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1325075/Obama-India-visit-Biggest-US-President-40-planes-6-armoured-cars.html?ITO=1490
But all in all a big thanks for this amusing post. KEEP UP THE BAD WORK !!!

A.C. Nice to hear from you.No response to my right-on House and Senate predictions?
Fox news biased or unbiased is a matter of opinion.We’ve beaten that horse to death.
Agree with J.R. re India blog. RJW

a.c Exchange rate is 1.61-1 How can hundreds of thousands of pounds per day relate to 200 million dollars per day.Not even close.What’s the truth.

India,largest Democracy in the world and one of our closest allies in a region we can use all the friends we can get.

Thanks(I think) for the backhanded complement re my political picks.Interested in who did better overall.

And how about that carbon footprint the “greenest” President evah! is leaving

‘Greenest President Ever’ trip to India has a carbon footprint bigger than the citizens of many US cities

I can’t shake this feeling that he’s fleeing, with 3,000 people, for a reason that we have yet to discern. A very bad one. Watch for something drastic to “happen” while he and his retinue are “gone to the mattresses.”

I had been saying the same hing for a while now.Look at all the money ,where did it really go? Look at all the money he given to other countries who hate America.Now he is giving 531 million to Palitins (spelled wrong) Why? Look at the grid shut down last week..Is this pratice to disarm us ? What about what he said”He will not attack back if America is attack” What about all who is in his cabinet ? Wha about our boarders ?Is he leaving it open for who to come in really who?Jihads-Talibans-Brotherhoods ???? What about the name calling of the people of America. What about him saying Iran isn;t a threat…. Hello..Who all is really leaving out of here with that many palnes ? WHO ? tAKE COVER AND BEGAN TO PROTECT YOURSELVES.tHE FRAUD IS PLANNING 😡

$200 million a day WHERE IS THE MEDIA? LET ME GUESS……………….

$200 million a day.

In the era of Obama, mind-boggling spending is unfortunately, no longer mind-boggling. But this is extreme, even by Obama standards.

The cost of Obama’s trip to Mumbai is going to be $200 million, per day!

That is not $200 million for the trip. That is $200 million a day. He is going to have 40 Air Force aircraft, including both 747 aircraft that we typically know as Air Force One. Other aircraft are support aircraft needed to fly in three Marine helicopters (Marine One) for the President. There will be six limousines, plus presumably other vehicles for the Secret Service detail. According to press reports, there will be a party of three hundred with him. Some reports simply call them friends of his, in which case, the actual entourage would be much larger as that would not include the President’s support staff, First Lady’s support staff, etc.

While million of Americans are out of work, he is going to get an all expense paid trip, with his family to the Taj Mahal. I am sure there are a lot of Americans who would like to see that wonder too. The difference is, we have to pay for it.

Speaking of paying for it, the Christmas season is approaching. Obama has famously said he does not buy his children Christmas presents. There are a lot of Americans who would like to buy their children Christmas presents this year, but will not be able to because they are out of work. Yet Obama can blow almost a billion dollars on a junket. A billion dollars of taxpayers’ money.

Oh, and while in India, Michelle is going to meet with commercial sex workers. She could do that in Washington. Come to think of it, can anyone tell curious Americans what it is about this trip that is so special? Is there anything about this trip that could not be accomplished by the American ambassador to India? Or something that could not be accomplished by a phone call?

Of course, Obama wants to act like an emperor. He does not care what the cost is, as long as he gets to spend money.

Perhaps he will be tuning into the election results tonight. He should, since the American people telling him what they think tonight.

RE: Oklahoma bans stonings, amputations for theft, death for apostates, Muslims cry “Islamophobia”

Oklahoma bans stonings, amputations for theft, death for apostates, Muslims cry “Islamophobia”
Oklahoma bans Sharia, Muslims plan lawsuit. Will Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani be available to testify?
“Voters ban judges from using international law,” from Associated Press, November 2:

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) – Oklahoma voters have approved a measure that would forbid judges from considering international law or Islamic law when deciding cases.Republican Rex Duncan, the sponsor of the measure, called it a “pre-emptive strike” designed to close the door on activist judges “legislating from the bench or using international law or Sharia law.”
Members of the Muslim community called the question an attack on Islam and some of them said they are prepared to file a lawsuit challenging the measure

The “Power of the Gavel” changes in Washington

Largely unnoticed amid last night’s story of the Republicans winning back the U.S. House and making significant gains in the Senate was the Oklahoma vote on State Question 755.

SQ 755 was a state constitutional amendment that will prohibit Oklahoma courts from using sharia law in deciding cases. It passed overwhelmingly last night with 70% support!

But this outcome was by no means a foregone conclusion. On October 7th, a poll was released with these results on SQ 755: 45% in favor, 25% opposed, 30% undecided.

Two major newspapers editorialized against it. The CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) affiliate in Oklahoma spoke out repeatedly against it in the media with its shop-worn “Islamophobia” propaganda.

We here at ACT! for America surmised that the high undecided percentage reflected voter misunderstanding of the issue AND confusion as to which way to vote on the initiative. And when voters are confused on a ballot initiative like this, they tend to either not vote on it or vote against it.

On October 18th ACT! for America launched a two-week statewide radio ad in support of SQ 755. Then, on October 21st, 26th, and November 1st we dropped a total of 600,000 automated calls to Oklahoma voters with a message urging support of SQ 755 from James Woolsey, former director of the CIA.

Additionally, we placed an editorial in one of the state’s major newspapers, sent multiple emails to our members, and conducted several radio and print media interviews.

The 70% support demonstrates that our efforts to educate the voters and clear up any confusion were immensely successful.

This 70% victory was significant because this was the first time voters had a chance to vote in a statewide election on the issue of sharia law. The overwhelming margin sends an unequivocal message to Islamic organizations and Muslims, such as Ground Zero Mosque Imam Rauf, who advocate sharia law for America—sharia law is not welcome here!

As for the other election results, from the ACT! for America perspective the most important consequence is that “the power of the gavel” will switch in the U.S. House of Representatives.

By this I mean key committees, such as the Homeland Security Committee, will likely be chaired by Members of Congress who truly understand the threat radical Islam poses to our national security and who will have a different list of priorities regarding what bills to consider and hearings to hold.

The legislative calendar, controlled by the Speaker of the House, will also reflect different priorities regarding what bills to bring to a vote before the full House.

This is a MAJOR step forward in our legislative efforts on Capitol Hill. Bills we supported this year that didn’t even get a committee hearing will receive the serious and thoughtful consideration they deserve. Prospects for House passage during the next two years of some of our legislative priorities have improved dramatically as a result of last night’s election results.

Without question, most voters were making their decisions based on concerns about the economy, jobs, federal spending and ballooning deficits, and what became known as “ObamaCare.”

But as exits polls I saw revealed, voter concerns about national security were lurking just beneath the surface. Americans are aware of the increase in homegrown jihadism and there is a growing consciousness about the threat of sharia law.

These election results not only bode well for progress in the Congress on our legislative agenda, they also bode well for increased pressure on the Obama administration to adjust the way it is defining and addressing the threat of radical Islam.

Oaklahoma will probably be challenged in court by the Obama/Holder Justice Department.

Hey A. C. Does your wife ever go by the name Flowergirl? Just kidding You really got her started.

Saw your girlfriend Michelle Bachman on CNN.She’s quoting that same 200 million per day from the Indian newspaper.My guess is they don’t have a clue what Obama’s entourage is spending and wouldn’t know a ruple(?) from a British pound from an American dollar,from monopoly money..Pure undocumented B.S.

Mission Accomplished! Did Obama intentionally Nuke the Economy?

http://directorblue.blogspot.com/2009/03/mission-accomplished-obama.html

Is President Obama intentionally attempting to bring the stock market to its knees? Some argue that, indeed, he is. “The free market has failed,” he could say, “just as it failed the housing market!” Consider that, in the teeth of a devastating recession, Obama has:

• Raised taxes on small businesses, the engines of entrepreneurship and job growth

• Raised the capital gains tax

• Lied about “tax cuts for 95% of Americans”, offering instead $13 a week, achieved not through tax cuts, but by changing the federal withholding tables!

• Destroyed charitable giving by axing the tax breaks for 26% of all giving (or $81 billion in 2006)

• Proposed a carbon cap-and-trading scheme designed to punish oil companies and further tax consumers

Why would Obama inflict these destructive policies while the economy is collapsing? Simple. Each step strengthens the role of government in people’s lives.

• Squelching the stock market kills its attractiveness as a parking lot for private capital. Combined with an increase in the capital gains tax, investors will swarm to bonds — tax-free vehicles like municipal bonds, which benefit the growth of state and local government. And unions, of course.

• Carbon cap-and-tax will raise taxes on all Americans as the cost of goods and services will increase to address a non-existent threat.

• True tax cuts would grow the economy, which is why, of course, Obama shuns them. The last major recession was Jimmy Carter’s malaise. It consisted of of double-digit inflation and unemployment. It was finally licked by across-the-board tax cuts for everyone (even the despised rich), which touched off a twenty-plus year run of prosperity.

• Charities reduce the role of government assistance for those in need. That, in Obama’s world, can not be tolerated. That is why charities must be choked off and allowed to die. Especially faith-based institutions.

The only plausible explanation is that Obama’s destruction of the economy is intentional.

It is based on a failed ideology that has a track record of Mugabe-esque disaster.

And I’m not the only one who thinks so. Jim Cramer is a long-time investor who’s been around the block a few times. He thinks the Obama agenda is crystal clear, stating “…their agenda is destroying the life savings of millions of Americans… we’ve elected a Leninist.”

Cramer went on to say that President Obama has caused “the greatest wealth destruction I have seen by a president.”

So he’s got that going for him.

Cramer calls it an “assault on the economy” by the President and his cohorts.

If all of this comes as a surprise to you, I’m guessing you never saw The secret scrapbook of Barry Soetero.

Because if you had, you would’ve known.

Update: Commenter Chris Bennett writes:

It is tragic-comic that both the President and Robert Gibbs have both stated that they will not comment on the day-to-day “fluctuations” of the stock market (despite that often they themselves cause those fluctuations – invariably downward. And “fluctuations” implies that the markets sometimes rise – rarely under this President), but if a radio or TV talking head like Rick Santelli or Rush Limbaugh says something that opposes Obama, both the president and Gibbs immediately, and often repeatedly, rise to the challenge.

So commenting on situations that adversely affect the jobs, investments, or retirements of millions of Americans is beneath them. Challenging dissent, however, is job one for this White House.

I Don’t Understand with Obama

***WARNING Adult Language Not Work Safe or PC
but dead on accurate…***

How’s it goingg O.T. Say what you will about this obviously weak economy and whether a recovery has begun but don’t knock the markets.ALL major indices( Dow30,S&P,NASDAQ) up over 35% since BHO took office.

Suprised you buy into that ridiculous 200 million per day figure.

Hope you maintain your professed independence.Congrats to Col.West.As I’ve stated before feel Marco Rubio is the rising star among Conservs. Not so much O’Donnell and Angle.

Best to you and family.Thanks for your service.Let’s have a great Nov.11 and Nov10 (Marine Corps Birthday)

It gets worse:

http://www.ndtv.com/article/india/34-warships-sent-from-us-for-obama-visit-64459

34 warships, including an aircraft carrier….3 heavy-lift aircraft, three helicopters and 500 US security personnel have already arrived

Oh, and what is THIS costing?

Obama wants to visit Mani Bhavan —the Gandhi museum.

OK, so far so good.
I bet it is nice.

The route is ~ 1 kilometer from Obama’s starting point in Bombay to the museum.

But Obama wanted to be safe in the congested city.

So…..

He is having our US military engineers build him a bomb-proof over-ground tunnel a kilometer long and 12 feet by 12 feet with air conditioning and CCTV security at all points, plus heavy guarding at each end.

Once Obama is done with the museum and uses the tunnel again to get back to the Taj Hotel the tunnel is destroyed.

Anyone think that Perhaps “the Messiah” didn’t get “the Sermon” delivered to him Tuesday???? I think we should plan on not letting up, and prepare a SECOND Sermon, to be delivered the same date, in 2012. Maybe, he’ll comprehend THAT one, because he is either too DENSE, or too ARROGANT to have gotten the last one!

3000 person entourage???? You know how may planes that is?? Logistics??? FUEL!?!?!?!
34 Naval vessels….. this guy is off his rocker!!!

What ever happened to “telecommuting and teleconferencing????? Didn’t little OBI WAN ever watch Star Trek??? LOL!!!!

Can’t WAIT for him to go!!!!

Islamophobia??? Why?? Isn’t that exactly WHAT THEY DO??? And to want to NOT do that here, they find “offensive”????? Well if they find our “humanity” to be offensive, then I find THEM and their INHUMANITY extremely so!!!

Pavel,

“My observation of Sarah Palin,” says CBS News political analyst Nicolle Wallace, “is that she is one of the shrewdest political figures in our country at this moment. She’s also one of the most electric.”

(CBS) “Most of the candidates Sarah Palin endorsed chalked up victories Tuesday.

And that scorecard leaves pundits wondering whether she’ll now train her sights directly on the Republican presidential nomination in 2012.

As CBS News Correspondent Jeff Glor reports, “the former GOP vice presidential nominee backed 43 candidates for the House. Thirty of them won, with races involving nine others still undecided”.

Her record in Senate races was closer: She endorsed 12 candidates. Seven won.

Sarah continues to make asses out of those who think she can’t be smart enough to govern. Name one other person who has been more effective in the political arena since 2008.

Rich, I used poor sentence structure. The example was meant to refer back to Chris M, but it’s fun being a wise arse now and then; unfortunately, it is precisely why it is ill advised to send donkeys to school.

Jay Bookman, of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:

“Now think about the impossibility of that. Two hundred million bucks a day? As Factcheck points out, the entire U.S. war effort in Afghanistan — where we have to arm, equip and provision roughly 100,000 troops in a hostile, barren environment — costs us $190 million a day. The claim is simply too ridiculous to be contemplated, let alone believed.

“Yet as the clip above from Fox Business News demonstrates, the absurdity quickly became fuel for the vast right-wing outrage machine. (My favorite part above is where the outraged host, the genius Eric Bolling, insists: “I will tell you unequivocably, I am not making this up, this has been reported, go to the Internet, go take a look.” Really, they gave this guy a microphone and TV time?)”

Coconuts removed from trees in preparation for Barack Obama’s India trip

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/barackobama/8109295/Coconuts-removed-from-trees-in-preparation-for-Barack-Obamas-India-trip.html

All coconuts around the city’s Gandhi museum, one of Mr Obama’s stops in the city, are being taken down.

Mani Bhavan, where Mahatma Gandhi stayed during his freedom struggle against the British, is among five places the US president is visiting in Mumbai.

“We told the authorities to remove the dry coconuts from trees near the building. Why take a chance?” Mani Bhavan’s executive secretary, Meghshyam Ajgaonkar, told the BBC.

Last week American security officers inspected Mani Bhavan and its surroundings along with other places the president is likely to visit.

Every year in India people are injured or even killed by falling coconuts.

Mr Obama, still smarting from heavy losses in the midterm elections, will visit India, Indonesia, South Korea, Japan and China on the 10-day tour.

An Aircraft Carrier never deploys all by itself. Take a look at the Flotilla and imagine the cost per day for Operations.

http://usmilitary.about.com/library/milinfo/navycarriers/blbattlegroup.htm

The Carrier Battle Group

More information is available on each of the types of ships shown here. To view, the informtion on the particular type of ship, select the ship’s silhouette. This will take you to the Navy Fact File. Note: To return here, you will need to use your “Back” button.”

First, it is important to note that there really is no real definition of a battle group. Battle groups are formed and disestablished on an as needed basis, and one may be different from another. However, they all are comprised of similar types of ships. Typically a carrier battle group might have:

* a carrier – The carrier provides a wide range of options to the U.S. government from simply showing the flag to attacks on airborne, afloat and ashore targets. Because carriers operate in international waters, its aircraft do not need to secure landing rights on foreign soil. These ships also engage in sustained operations in support of other forces.
* two guided missile cruisers – multi-mission surface combatants. Equipped with Tomahawks for long-range strike capability.
* a guided missile destroyer – multi-mission suface combatant, used primarily for anti-air warfare (AAW)
* a destroyer – primarily for anti-submarine warfare (ASW)
* a frigate – primarily for anti-submarine warfare (ASW)
* two attack submarines – in a direct support role seeking out and destroying hostile surface ships and submarines
* a combined ammunition, oiler, and supply ship – provides logistic support enabling the Navy’s forward presence: on station, ready to respond

The Carrier Battle Group (CVBG) could be employed in a variety of roles, all of which would involve the gaining and maintenance of sea control:

* Protection of economic and/or military shipping.
* Protection of a Marine amphibious force while enroute to, and upon arrival in, an amphibious objective area.
* Establishing a naval presence in support of national interests.

No Carrier deploys without an Air Wing.

The Carrier Air Wing

http://www.navy.mil/navydata/ships/carriers/powerhouse/airwing.asp

The typical air wing aboard a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier usually contains four FA-18 squadrons, one S-3 squadron, one EA-6B squadron, one E-2C squadron, and one helicopter squadron. You can find detailed information on each of these aircraft by clicking on the silhouette. That will take you to the Navy Fact File for that particular aircraft.

OK now, is this a State visit or an Invasion?
The Operational Costs are fairly substantial

That is only for the Carrier & Group.

Greg, do you know the difference in PAY between a “Grunt” in the battle field, and the “suits” and guards etc Obama is surrounded with??? Any Idea what his “Tunnel” will cost to transport, or what it cost to have made???? Cost to erect? take down? load up, and Fly BACK to the USA?? The manpower to do all just this ONE thing??? Wake up!!!! And it’s payed for, with “devalued” Dollars…. I’ve already noticed the JUMP in Food prices here….. Labor costs? Nope, Material costs?? Not exactly…. Dollar worth LESS requiring MORE of them to buy goods?? BINGO!!!
Greg.. you crack me up??? Are you like, one of Gibbs lil Flunkies??? LOL!! 😆 😆 😆

But I’ll ask you this, even “IF” the number was off by say, 50% (WOW!) … you don’t think even 100 Million a day, for Obama to strut about, is TOO MUCH????? 50 Million a day??? And, for WHAT???? What “benefit” does the Nation GET for this huge outlay of Cash???? Tell us all about it Greg???

People forget….even Democrats who like Obama forget …. that Obama imposed the Davis/Bacon Act rules on every penny of government money spent paying anyone’s wages.

So, while the Clintons could get away with visiting China for a mere $50 million a few years ago, that cannot happen today.

Not with the Davis/Bacon Act wage impositions.

When you consider those wage impositions $200 million a day makes perfect sense.

He’s having Marine One.. that special Helicopter flown over….. I assume it take s C5a Galaxy to haul that big guy….. What’s the op cost/fuel cost etc for that monster???? It all adds up….

Old Trooper2… Makes perfect sense, but why do they even NEED to go?? He’s flying in by AF1…. not Fa-18!!! LOL!!! (hasn’t got the guts) so why send in the “Fleet”???? He skeered of sumthin???

@ Aye Chihuahau, #42:

Strangely enough, none of the Obamabot quislings can bring forth a credible source with an alternate dollar figure for this trip.

That’s because most of the costs associated with presidential travel directly relate to security. Details of security arrangements, including the related budget, can’t safely be made public.

There’s not a single credible source for the totally absurd $200 million figure, either. An article on an Indian website wherein an unidentified Indian writer quotes an anonymous Indian official isn’t my idea of a credible source.

Aye, I bow to your superior intel!! 😀 So then, triple the costs I asked about!!

Greg said…”can’t safely be made public.” Hank says, BullSchite!!! What danger to SECURITY, is a dollar amount??? None….. The only DANGER I see to Obama, by revealing the TRUE COST of an escapade like this, is to his NECK!! If people REALLY KNEW how he was screwing them with these MANY trips of his, they’d want to STRETCH it! THAT is why they don’t want to “fess up”!!!!

It’s insane, as is anyone supporting this, and him! There is no important reason, for him to be there at this moment in time. We have Bigger, and more important needs, HERE! Work HERE Mr President, keep the MONEY HERE, Mr, President, quit RAPING THE TREASURY Mr. President…… do something GOOD for us ONCE, Mr. President!!!!

Now answer the Question Greg…….

“Greg, what say you to this monumental waste of taxpayer dollars?”

LET him pay with his money.
