Obama’s $3M Chicago Olympics Pitch Falls Short of the Gold



Obama’s $3M Chicago Olympics Pitch Falls Short of the Gold
CBS News
The White House billed the trip as an “official” journey, so taxpayers picked up the costs for the slightly more than 14-hour round trip on Air Force One.
The Defense Department pegs the operating costs for the president’s 747 at $100,219 per flight hour. Double it to include the backup plane that always accompanies the president. Add the costs of the Air Force 757 that Mrs. Obama used to fly to Copenhagen earlier in the week. It adds up to nearly $3-million dollars.
And that doesn’t include the aircraft used to fly the presidential limousines and Secret Service vehicles there as well.
$100,219 an hour to fly Air Force One,
14 hours for Obama’s round trip…


Wild Thing’s comment…….
Expensive round trip so Obama and Michelle could share their life stories to the IOC. hahahaha Good grief.

TomR says:

The obamas spare no(taxpayer paid) expense. Remember that they took separate planes to Paris after his Cairo speech so they could dine together and she could shop.

Mark says:

Well they live in government housing, the government feeds them, pays for the house, transportation, The kids special education in an elite school, they fly off to New York on a date that cost the taxpayers 150,000 dollars for one evening, of course we had to pay for the babysitter. This the most self centered, egotistical jerk we have ever had living in that house. Plus he runs around the world on OUR dime putting down the Same Country that puts up with this crap.
But one thing, now the whole world knows Brack obama is a goddam liar.

Wild Thing says:

Tom,hahahaa good way to put it, that is
just what it is.

Wild Thing says:

Mark, YESSSSS and that means a lot.
“now the whole world knows Brack obama is a goddam liar.”
