Disgusting - hopefully he catches malaria or something and is forced to stay there.

Gee, what are the odds this is another overblown estimated intended to rile up the less intelligent and more angry (those two always seem to go together) part of the right wing

The Washington Post reported on it but didn't have a specific #

I wonder where Weekly Standard got their figures

Maybe they based them on trips taken by Bush and Clinton (and then perhaps just tripled them to rile up the morons)

Former presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush also made trips to multiple African nations involving similarly laborious preparations. Bush went in 2003 and 2008, bringing his wife on both occasions. Bush’s two daughters went along on the earlier trip, which included a safari at a game preserve on the Botswana-South Africa border.

Sometimes the little disgraces of this ghetto street maggot and his grifting thug of a wife tell just as good a tale of the larger disaster his presidency has been as the big things.

I didn't read the article, but how does this cost estimate compare to the cost estimate of the fabled India trip - that cost hundreds of millions per day?

Or, more importantly, to the costs of other Presidential trips to the area?

If the figure is accurate (and I suspect it may not be, only because this is the Weekly Standard we are talking about) and in line with the figures for similar trips, $100,000,000 is crazy. The Congress should definitely pay close attention to the President's travel budget and scrutinize things more closely.

If the figure is accurate but higher than the cost of similar trips, then the Congress should take a close look at why this particular trip costs so much.

weird that you are searching my old post from 2 years ago

why not post a link to the actual thread rather than just taking my statement out of context and posting it here

Ingrim is a POS human being and I don't give a rats ass that she survived cancer or adopted a kid

why would either of those things make any difference

btw - notice I didn't call her a thug

A man calling an middle aged woman a thug would sound like a pussy

So being a breast cancer survivor means she can't be a POS human being? Fucking cancer... you only attack the good ones!

Yet OTWINK and MOOCH are good citizens despite befriending domestic terrorists right?

I assumed you had a point, and that was an integral part of that point. So, what point was there in mentioning she's survived breast cancer? And if there was no relevant point, why did you even bring it up?

Just pointing out that the Village Idoit called a middle aged breast cancer survivor and adopted mother of two immigrants a "POFS" human being, and by her own definition, is a "world class pussy." 

Can Laura Ingraham still be a "POFS" human being?  Yes.  Is she?  No.  Never said breast cancer survivors cannot be a "POFS" human being.

Ingraham is the type of woman that is so overbearing and impossibly nuts, she can't hope to get a straight man for more than a single night.

And don't forget a "POFS" human being.
