What gets me is I wonder how much all that travel is equating to. Of the tax payers money... So lets think about this for a second...

We will consider that they flew on Air Force One, and we will leave the price of JP8 out of the equation, but I can only imagine.

Going of of Dod Rates for 2003, too lazy to look up current... if they are staying, oh lets say 5 days because I really don't care... The 2003 rates were 230 lodging, 85 for meals, and 21 a day for incidentals.... okay so watch my math here, because that is not my strong poing.

230 +85+21 = $336 per person / per day

500 people x 336 = 168,000 per day

if they stay 5 days = 840,000 just for this one trip.

what a waste of money, and what scares me the most, is they are in London, what is going to happen when they have to go to a country that doesn't like us as much as the British do?

Wait, also he bought the Queen an ipod... so lets through that in as well.
