It would be worth twice that if he stayed there and never came back.

ok... anyone else think these trips need to be reigned in?!?!?

No president should be given a blank check to spend traveling the world.

Why can’t Congress just say no????


The GOP house leadership is too busy sticking knives in Conservative backs to say cut funding to Obama’s trips.

Reiterating : “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.” Is that what hell is like?”

I agree. Sooner and Better yet let them vacation on ambassador Chris Stevens’ budget. Tell them to call if in need of help, call me!

His trip to Africa costs more than the FEMA request from West, Texas.

I hope Hitlery and Obama have nightmares of the Benghazi dead and Navy SEALs wearing their skeleton masks staring down at them. I also hope they always have that little shudder up their backs wondering if someone might pay them a visit at 3:00 am.

It would be racist to complain about the trip.

How much did Clinton's trip to Africa in 1998 (to divert attention from the Lewinsky affair) cost the taxpayer?

I forgot, wasn't there something called sequestration?

Didn't you read?

But the White House canceled the safari on Wednesday following inquiries from The Washington Post about the trip’s purpose and expense, according to a person familiar with the decision."

Not any of these very expensive precautions will protect Obama, Michelle, or the girls from the female anopheles mosquito.

I think they should leave the girls at home.

I hate to sound so mundane, but why is this trip necessary? Oh yeah, I forgot, to see fellow traveler Mandella. . Will this give O more street cred to get on Mt. Rushmore? . What, Rushmore is irrelevant? Oh, I see, it's President of the world now. You say he's. . no, you said it, . . c’mon. . . wait for it, he's campaigning already! Well, then what's going to happen to the USA? . . What, he doesn't care? You don't say. . .

I wonder how much it costs African leaders to visit comrade obama in DC. If it’s much cheaper, maybe these travel arrangements and accommodations should managed by the lowest bidder.
