I have no first hand knowledge of this, just passing along.
I could not belive this was true (but had also heard it on the air, thought was hype), but when you Google it and read a number of sites, it does appear to be true. Tell him to stay there !!!
Just in case some of you don’t follow current events as closely as I do (yes, I am a “news-junkie”) you may have missed the following information since it never appears in our wonderful newspapers or on most TV news.
The Barack Obama family is leaving tomorrow for a ten day trip to India . This is going to be an historical and incredible trip, mostly in the numbers of people going, costs, etc.
1) The entourage will include THREE THOUSAND people
2) FORTY aircraft will be making this trip
3) TWO marine helicopters are being dismantled, flown to India, put back together to fly the Obamas around the country
4) The entire 500 room Taj Mahal Hotel has been reserved for this group
5) Cost is estimated to be $200 million PER DAY for ten days
6) Keep this in mind when you get the next notice of an increase in your taxes!!!
No one should ever wonder why taxpayers are angry about this type of extravagance while most citizens are struggling with day-to-day costs of living, etc.
