................So, the kids are going!
Where are they in this photo-op?.................
Maybe they get to go in another helicopter with Mama Robinson.
Maybe they get their own AF1 for the tiring trip.
So, Mo’s travelling in nappy head.
Maybe she’ll put on her wig once she hits India.
Why is he going? For a festival of lights? OK so let’s say it cost 1 million a day, for what really? Is this a major summit? He is taking at least 2 AF1, food lodging , security, cars, Marine Ones What is a acceptable cost for him going to visit school children? WHY IS HE GOING?
Here’s another look at the coat.

“Time to change the locks on the White House.”
You gave me a good laugh!
I try to be an optimist so I think were being a little hard on Michelle Antoinette. I think, in this economy, she’s just trying empathize with the unemployed and homeless by dressing like a bag lady.
From my recent trip to Tokyo, I’m afraid that here dress is “high, contemporary fashion. Looks gawdawful though.
Thanks for the ‘words fail me’ ping.

I guess it’s the bald look for her in India. Just horrible.
$500 mil new embassy in Kabul.
Perhaps the wigs are on a cargo transport plane.
:)
The reported figure came from an Indian news organization. From what I’ve read, apparently outrageous exageration is the norm in their press.
Can I prove it’s not $200 mil / day? No, I can’t. Nor can I prove it’s not $1, or $1 trillion.
I will point out the war in Afghanistan reportedly costs us $192 mil per day. So you can draw your own conclusions.
That is, if you care at all about some sembalance of sanity or truth. If not, then enjoy!
I thought this trip was built around them departing on THURSDAY night?
Host countries usually have a full agenda & work things out to the minute.
Changing their departure date/time is downright rude.
Why was the time changed?
I would think so too.
How much do you think the most expensive vacation that Bill Gates or Warren Buffet ever took cost?
Two billion for a vacay and Michelle still can’t find an iron...priceless.”
That must be the latest GHETTO CHIC.
There are presently two US aircraft carrier groups in the Arabian Gulf - with a switchover happening soon.
Perhaps the returning carrier (CVN-75 Harry S. Truman) will just “swing by” India on the way back to the US - it has been flying Operation Enduring Freedom missions since June 29th.
Check this site in next week or so to see if a carrier group did indeed sail off the coast of India -
