Obama’s Mumbai Trip Will Cost Americans $200 Million Per Day!

Yesterday the Republicans regained control of the House of Representatives in an election tsunami that some are calling the biggest Democratic losses in 62 years.

It’s a good thing U.S. President Barack Obama rescheduled his Mumbai, Indonesia trip until after the midterm elections, or the Democratic losses would have been much worse.

You already know about the 40 commercial airliners and private jets that will transport Mr. and Mrs. Obama and an entourage of hundreds to Mumbai, India next week.

Well, now comes word that the Mumbai trip, where Obama plans to speak at a Muslim mosque, will cost Americans $200 million per day!!

I’m sure the thousands of unemployed Americans who are set to lose their benefits next month will appreciate this news.

Mr. Obama rescheduled this trip to Indonesia twice from earlier this year, due to the political climate in america, which angered the people of Indonesia where Obama spent his boyhood studying the Qu’Ran. (Besides his native English, Obama speaks fluent Indonesian.)

You’ll be happy to know that your $200 million per day will be spent on “security, hotel stay and other aspects of the Presidential visit,” according to a top government official. The Obama administration has booked all 300 rooms in Mumbai’s 5-star hotel.

In addition to the extra security flown over from the mainland, U.S. and Indian Navy ships will patrol the waters off Mumbai, to provide additional security, reports said.

I don’t believe that. Bernie Madoff must’ve came up with those numbers.
Man, I just don’t care™

And Bush’s “War ~~For Oil~~ On Terror” is STILL costing how much… per day????

What is the total so far????

HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN KILLED????

And once again…I completely agree with Man! (Mark that as “Agreement #2”).

And might I add….

The indictments of Clifford & Tameka Harris, and the resulting stay in federal facilities for multi-millionaires will cost those same taxpayers and unemployed citizens just HOW MUCH per day……?

Don’t worry- I’ll wait while you crunch the numbers.

Ooooohhhh….better yet…..let’s add up ALL the good ole’ taxpayers’ $$ spent on Clifford & Friends’ arrests, indictments, trials, prison sentences, etc…..

How much are we looking at now?

I seriously doubt this for the simple fact that Faux News would have been all over this. Everything you read on the internet isn’t true.

Should the President not travel? Or is it that he supposed to stay in a hotel in the hood? Or is it that he not allowed to travel with security? Or is it that he is not allowed to visit predominantly Muslim countries? What is the complaint here? Don’t all presidents have global travel?

With control over the House nothing is going to get accomplished. Everything that gets proposed will be blocked. Which will make it seem like nothing the POTUS said he’s going to accomplish will get accomplished. We ain’t seen nothing yet.

*************************************

It could very well be true. Who knows, but who cares? His travel costs what it costs for a President to travel. He needs LOTS of security and the white house has a press corps. He can’t travel commercial. His travel doesn’t cost any more than any other president. Sandra is mad becuase she discriminates against Muslims. She doesn’t want him going to a Muslim country at all. THOSE PEOPLE aren’t worth us spending money to visit.

There is no way his trip will cost that much, btw.

He is so thorough that he already accomplished the big things he said he would accomplish. Healthcare, and getting the heck out of Iraq are done thank God. Now they will bicker and accomplish absolutely nothing for the next two years. I’m tired of all of them. Its a game to them. None of them give a damn about us. Its all about posturing enough to stay in a position of prestige with perks out the ying yang.

@ WUT you are right it will make it hard for him to get things done however the Republicans set themselves up for 2012 and not in a good way. He can negotiate on issues at least though but we did see how well that went.

PLEASE…I’ve been to Mumbai twice and I dont think I spent $5000 (US)total. I don’t know anywhere on the planet that you can spend 200 million dollars a day to live. Mars….different story. Has anybody been to Mumbai; it was the worst traffic I’ve ever been in. I’ve lived in NY and DC and been to LA.

@Str8Cpt – you still use Limewire? Those p2p sites are very dangerous…….
http://myspace.com/thegameoncw Bird

I actually looked after renegadesince1985 mentioned the source. It goes back to NDTV which appears to be a credable enough Indian news site. They are quoting an annonymous source from within their country. And when they started talking about the Navy supposedly being summoned because The Man was going to be there and various other security precautions I could see the price tag being very high. But it is no differant than what any other president would require.

The only thing that comforts me is that if the Republicans gain power in 2012 I really believe what goes around comes around…Hide your wife, hide your kids cause when the republicans take over the REAL ish goes down….
PrettyBrownEyes

@ Sandra Rose…..since you always have something negative to say about President Obama. How about you take over his job and see what you can get done!

Now You get Mad?!?!?!

After The 8 Years Of The Bush/Cheney Disaster, Now You Get Mad?

You didn’t get mad when the Supreme Court stopped a legal recount and appointed a President.

You didn’t get mad when Cheney allowed Energy company officials to dictate Energy policy and push us to invade Iraq.

You didn’t get mad when a covert CIA operative got outed.

You didn’t get mad when the Patriot Act got passed.

You didn’t get mad when we illegally invaded a country that posed no threat to us.

You didn’t get mad when we spent over 800 billion (and counting) on said illegal war.

You didn’t get mad when Bush borrowed more money from foreign sources than the previous 42 Presidents combined.

You didn’t get mad when over 10 billion dollars in cash just disappeared in Iraq.

You didn’t get mad when you found out we were torturing people.

You didn’t get mad when Bush embraced trade and outsourcing policies that shipped 6 million American jobs out of the country.

You didn’t get mad when the government was illegally wiretapping Americans.

You didn’t get mad when we didn’t catch Bin Laden.

You didn’t get mad when Bush rang up 10 trillion dollars in combined budget and current account deficits.

You didn’t get mad when you saw the horrible conditions at Walter Reed.

You didn’t get mad when we let a major US city, New Orleans, drown.

You didn’t get mad when we gave people who had more money than they could spend, the filthy rich, over a trillion dollars in tax breaks.

You didn’t get mad with the worst 8 years of job creations in several decades.

You didn’t get mad when over 200,000 US Citizens lost their lives because they had no health insurance.

You didn’t get mad when lack of oversight and regulations from the Bush Administration caused US Citizens to lose 12 trillion dollars in investments, retirement, and home values.

You finally got mad when a black man was elected President and decided that people in America deserved the right to see a doctor if they are sick. Yes, illegal wars, lies, corruption, torture, job losses by the millions, stealing your tax dollars to make the rich richer, and the worst economic disaster since 1929 are all okay with you, but helping fellow Americans who are sick…Oh, Hell No!!

I agree with this too. Remember all the great ones are celebrated long after they have left office or have died. In the future obama will get all kinds of credit after the fact. Unfortunately there are alot of people who are just ignorant and cant understand the timeline of when a policy or law is passed and how long it will take effect or reap the benefits…

True that’s the jist of politics. And like I stated to Miss Harlem, the gain with republican will be the fact that they are just like a punk azz friend who pretend they have your back, talk junk until a fight breaks out.. and they leave you to fight by yourself and when the coast is clear.. They sneak up from behind and say “Yeah we did it!” and they started the sh!t in the first place. >:(

Having the Republicans in charge is like a pedophile running a day care center W R O N G! When Clinton left we had a surplus, then George WHAT THE HELL AM I DOIN Bush took over & blew it faster than a hooker on the street corner. Now we have the RePUNKicans & the tea party psychos in the mix. The rich are gonna get rich & what’s left of the middle class & the poor will be left out in the cold.

Food stamps: CUT The list goes on and on and on.

Everyone wants to point out the things that President Obama has’nt done. What about the things he has done? Here are just a few.

-Extended benefits to same-sex partners of ferderal employees

-Appointed the nations first Chief Technogy Officer

-Appointed more openly gay officails than any other U.S president in history

-Signed Lily Ledbettter Fair Pay Act, restoring basic protections
against pay discriminations for women and other workers

-Provided travel expenses to families of fallen soldiers to be on hand when the body arrives at Dover AFB

-Reversed the policy of barring media coverage during the return of fallen soldiers

-Signed the Children’s Health Insurance Reauthorization Act, which provides health care to 11 million kids–4 million of whom were previously uninsured

-Issued executive order to close the prison at Guantanamo Bay

-Increased minority access to capital

-Signed Health Care Redform Bill, preventing insurance companies from denying insurance because of pre-existing conditions.

-Tax cuts for up to 3.5 million small business to help pay for employee health care coverage
.
-Increased funding for the Violence Against Women Act

-Eliminated Subsidies to private lender middlemen of student loans and protect student borrowers

-Expanded Pell grants, which helps low-income students pay for college

-Expansion of Medicaid

-Tax credits for up to 29 million individuals to help pay for health insurance

-Require health insurance plans to disclose how much of the premium actually goes to patient care.

The list goes on and on.

This is why I voted for Obama and will vote for him again in 2012.

________________

That’s a very good question! You’re right; that is the hotel where the bombings took place. Indonesia is where Obama grew up and went to school. it’s where he learned the Koran. So going back there will be like a homecoming to him. He swears he’s not Muslim yet he speaks their language fluently. I’m sure he doesn’t think $200 million per day is a lot to pay for his homecoming. Watch what happens when he goes back there next week.
