Obama to Fly Over 9 Hours Just for


Posted: Jan 29, 2013

President Barack Obama will fly over 9 hours tomorrow, round-trip from Washington, D.C. to Las Vegas, Nevada, just to deliver a speech on immigration, according to the president's White House schedule. With Air Force One estimated to cost $182,000 per hour in flight, Obama's trip--that is, only his travel to and from Vegas--will cost taxpayers over $1.6 million. Obama has no other public events scheduled in Las Vegas but his immigration speech. http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/obama-fly-over-9-hours-just-speech-immigration_698171.html;

Should he take the train? - or maybe a taxi cab?

No - He should stay in the WH and get some work done - Truthhurts

He could just as easily do a public speech via TV.

Flying all over the country to target a specific group is getting ridiculous. Spending the taxpayer's money doing it is absolutely shameful.

But, WTH, he doesn't care, now does he? Could it be because LV may have some good golf courses and he'll ge a few rounds in before and after his speech? I can't wait until he's gone and wish people wouldn't have been so stupid this past election!!!!

There are a lot of immigrants in LV - RC

Something the Republican party should take note of if they want to ever be elected again.
No, to win again, Pubs would have to be better - liars like the Dems buying votes.nm

To win, the GOP must integrate. Brown pubs, black - pubs, Asian pubs. Hard truth. nm

Problem is, he spent how much to fly there for a 15 minute speech??? - Truthhurts

Kinda ridiculous, don'cha think? That's OUR money he's spending, not his.

That's what irks a lot of people.
They are all over the country! - More in Oregon than Arizona.

There are more Hispanics in Oregon than Arizona and Nevada combined and in Oregon, they do not speak English. The schools here do not even teach Spanish because there is no need too.

...and? - grits

Whoever said earlier that it was a slow news day was spot-on

Spending $1.6 mil on one speech - is definitely newsworthy

[ In Reply To ..]
That's our taxpayer money being wasted. Sorry you think it's not.

It's not newsworthy - grits

[ In Reply To ..]
because that's how it works. Do I wish things were more streamlined? Sure, but I don't mind my tax dollars going to support the administration. That's what they're for. I'd rather pay for 1000 such trips than another day of war.
It's pure arrogance by the Dictator-in-Chief - - stay in the coal-heated WH (sm)

and read your prompter on TV. I can turn you off and do - every time. So how many coal plants have you shut down lately?
Tell me more about the coal-heated White House. - nm
