Louis XVI was hunting at Versailles on July 14, 1789 and he and Marie Antoinette were oblivious to the Revolution starting back in Paris. Perhaps history will repeat itself.
According to Drudge http://www.independent.ie/irish-news/failte-first-family-the-obamas-touch-down-in-ireland-29349387.html, they have reserved 30 rooms at 2,500 pounds/night.
Nothing to see here. Obama & Co. once again attempting to defend the indefensible.
If Congress tries to reign in Obama's trips then maybe someone will take a close look at all of their junkets, and they can't have that.
Both Bush and Clinton did tours of Africa. I would love to see how the cost of their trips compare with Obama's travels and find out just how much higher his expenses are. Then get someone to explain why.
2500 English Pounds is like $3900.00 a NIGHT!!!
Now everyone know what he means by spreading the wealth.

Worse than tours is the removal of hot meals for our troops in Afganistan! Our troops come first always, IMO.
ALWAYS!!
