$200,000,000 a day? C'mon, either tell me that you are joking or provide us with the source of this information.
I hardly believe that there is ANYONE there in Washington who'll substantiate those numbers and I speculate that
if there were any truth to what seems to be, little more than another republican lie or a FOX news rumor, we'd be
hearing a lot about it on the news media. Then again, maybe it's just some bad weed that got to you, eh?
Britain's July 2010 trade delegation trip to India was considered LARGE and they only had the PM and 65 delegates. (plus assorted entourage/staffers presumably)
I can't believe what I just read. The President is taking a trip to India with 3,000 of his companions.(The article stated: Family,friends & staff). They rented out the Taj Mahal Palace & Hotel (all 570 rooms). Then comes the best part of the article: "at a cost of 200 MILLION PER DAY for the 10 day trip". Can you imagine the nerve of this man to be spending this kind of money when there are millions of people out of work and out of unemployment benefits and uninsured. The Senior Citizens can't get a raise in their Social Security checks because there's no money for that, so, can someone Please explain how this trip can be allowed. Doesn't anyone question this major expense?? The politicians don't want to extend UI benefits because they can't find the money to pay for them BUT a vacation is ok for the Pres. to blow 200 million a day for 10 days.
I questioned the last vacation, that the Pres. went on with his family, and a few people ,here, thought that it was ok for the Pres. to take his family along. Well, what do you think , now, that he is taking 3,000 people with him on our expense. How can this be justified at this point in our country's problems??????
Yes, it's a shopping trip for Michelle. Do you have a problem with that?
What kind of an idiot would believe this tripe? Utter idiocy. Oh, well, there Limbaugh and Michelle Bachman, and .....
You people seriously need to give these absurd gossip threads a rest. You get so frothed up about slamming President Obama that your hatred has clouded your mind. Just more Republican lies.
Even though the news programs are only reporting what the Indian news has released, [b]it's ALL the conservatives and Fox News fault.
Did the conservatives and Fox and the RW blogs spread the story without checking it out?
Yes.
So.....
