There's no end to Obama's Opulence

So,

Have we tallied up the costs of the various normal armed service presences in Hawaii yet when we try to do the chicken little lament about this vacation?
 

To be fair, Vette got his initial information from an unnamed Indian government official.

:rolleyes: Lacks subtlety. You really need to work on your racist-dog-whistle skills.

To be fair, Vette farms out all his subtle (and direct) racism to his toadies on this site, who are infinitely more clever at it than he.
 
Y'know, I rather expect that if, when Obama leaves office, all the costs of presidential trips and junkets and vacations and "opulence" generally speaking during his administration are tallied up, and compared with the comparable sum from the Bush II Administration, all figures inflation-adjusted, then, they'll come out about the same, or, if there's any difference, W will prove the bigger spender.

You do care about that, don't you, vette?

US to spend $200 mn a day on Obama's Mumbai visit

Mumbai: The US would be spending a whopping $200 million (Rs. 900 crore approx) per day on President Barack Obama's visit to the city.

"The huge amount of around $200 million would be spent on security, stay and other aspects of the Presidential visit," a top official of the Maharashtra Government privy to the arrangements for the high-profile visit said.

About 3,000 people including Secret Service agents, US government officials and journalists would accompany the President. Several officials from the White House and US security agencies are already here for the past one week with helicopters, a ship and high-end security instruments.

"Except for personnel providing immediate security to the President, the US officials may not be allowed to carry weapons. The state police is competent to take care of the security measures and they would be piloting the Presidential convoy," the official said on condition of anonymity.

Navy and Air Force has been asked by the state government to intensify patrolling along the Mumbai coastline and its airspace during Obama's stay. The city's airspace will be closed half-an-hour before the President's arrival for all aircraft barring those carrying the US delegation.

The personnel from SRPF, Force One, besides the NSG contingent stationed here would be roped in for the President's security, the official said.

The area from Hotel Taj, where Obama and his wife Michelle would stay, to Shikra helipad in Colaba would be cordoned off completely during the movement of the President.

No. Of course not. What a ridiculous idea.

Bumping multiple threads in order to create a nuisance is a violation of TOS.

Cool, thanks.

So rorbag and the gang multiple bumping is ok in the cool kids world, correct?

Since you are a cool kid, you should know this stuff.
 
Rory is actually on my ignore list, for that and other behaviours I find objectionable. However, I apologise if my being "cool" and not universally disliked is damaging your self-esteem.

WHAAA?

There is an actual cool kid that ignores that blowbag?

I might have to reevaluate your standing.

And don't worry about my self esteem or feelings. Those are for little people, I don't subscribe

Man, what a trip down memory lane this was! I re-read the whole thread from top to bottom. :D

Not only will it stand as a classic fail amongst classic fails on the Lit GB, but so many Righties of yore in this thread who used to be prolific and hoot-hollered every ding-dong day during the Obama Era have gone the way of dust.

jeez...everything got old!
