Bomb-proof tunnel with air conditioning: Obama's security go to extraordinary measures for his tour of the Gandhi museum
President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle arrived in India's commercial hub of Mumbai on Saturday, days after voters punished his Democrats in mid-term elections.
Probably not since the days of the Pharaohs or the more ludicrous Roman Emperors has a head of state travelled in such pomp and expensive grandeur as the President of the United States of America.

And on NPR this morning they were lamenting that someone spent $250,000 on a 1909 Honas Wagner baseball card - the ultralibs comment was “maybe that person will see fit to spend an equal amount on something that is worthwhile” [approx. quote].
Fine for the Administration to spend beyond excess - it’s for multiculturalism don’t you know.
Obama’s in a tunnel....and the election just sealed both ends!!
Are There pictures yet? This tunnel has been reported on a couple of times the last two days or so.
Are those stains or what on that dress? It's also a bit thin and needs lining or the wookie needs to wear a slip. And I won't even get into the seam puckering.
That’s a lot of security for a president who apologized for America to the whole world, and promised to vastly improve our relations with our enemies.
Seriously, 30 dogs need to be protected from India's harsh weather conditions and have their specially prescribed food brought in for them? The weather for Delhi today is a high of 86 and a low of 62. Sounds like very nice weather, but what do I know.
Note the smiling relaxed black president being driven by the stern white driver. Is that making a statement or what?
Not to mention coconuts being removed as a precaution!!!
Hillary should have done the same thing to Bill's...
Man,his hair turned white over nite!
Zero and the Wookie have really jumped the shark in European nations. A little late but they now see what we knew before Nov 2008.
Was that the card someone left to the nuns? If so, it will likely go to a good cause (although the NPR bunch might not see it that way).
“Man,his hair turned white over nite!”
Let’s not exaggerate now, it started turning Tuesday night not last night. LOL
What the hell is she wearing?
That figure of $200 Million per day might be an underestimate.
This is beyond absurd. Diverting two aircrat carriers
and a contingent of 34 ships in a fleet cannot be cheap.
I wonder how many people and support staff other presidents had on these overseas trips?
