any chance of leaving them there? Just wait until they go to sleep and move everything back to the USA, demand his birth certificate as proof of citizenship...

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

Most people will not even know he is gone. They certainly will not know the poor taxpayer is stuck with this clowns expenses.

[Ann Archy]

Going HOME, Obama??? ALL, and I mean ALL of his trips are nothing but VACATIONS....and WE PAY FOR THEM...we are SUCKERS.

[Mouton]

If he was going to stay there, it would be money well spent.

[laplata]

I doubt it. But one day they’ll not be living high on the hog as they are now. Eventually they’ll to be greatly humbled and miserable.

[USFRIENDINVICTORIA]

Actually, based on the annual deficit, as a proportion of budget, it will cost the taxpayer (about) $40 to $66 million. That, plus some green ink and paper for the money presses.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

What happened to the sequester?

[glorgau]

The $60 million is just for green’s fees.

[QT3.14]

A good chance for him to visit his bithplace.

This is a deal compared to Biden’s million dollar one night stay and limo service in Paris

[Mike Darancette]

But the trip won't be cheap; it's expected to cost American taxpayers $60 to $100 million, according to the Washington Post.

Are the White House tours still shutdown by the "sequester"?

[vpintheak]

I now a few civilian workers on both an Air Force Base and an Army Fort. Both have had their hours cut, reducing their income by 20%. Now Bambi can fly to africa at this cost? What a crock! These are real, patriotic people getting hosed!
