ORIGINAL: pahunkboy Ill buy that Mike// President Obama and his family will be going to Africa later this month. But the trip won't be cheap; it's expected to cost American taxpayers $60 to $100 million, according to the Washington Post. "When President Obama makes his first extended trip to sub-Saharan Africa later this month, the federal agencies charged with keeping him safe won’t be taking any chances. Hundreds of U.S. Secret Service agents will be dispatched to secure facilities in Senegal, South Africa and Tanzania. A Navy aircraft carrier or amphibious ship, with a fully staffed medical trauma center, will be stationed offshore in case of emergency," reports the Post. http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/obamas-family-trip-africa-cost-60-100-million_735195.html I wonder if this is any different than any other president. But hey I know, We can SEE...president Obama is so very special. He's I am sure, giving way too many speeches and I'd say throwing way too many white house dinners.
