Honestly Hound, you are going to defend the fact that 500 support staff had to go? I understand the importance of the G20 I have worked for the government for some time now. As I understand you did as well.. But I do find it extremely hard to believe that it takes 500 people to do it. I wonder how many GW would have taken before he got trashed by the media. My example above, was just that, an example. It was showing basic per diem rates for the country and the low projected amount for basic spending. But one thing is, yes it took multiple air craft along with tons of military personnel time which ulimately cost even more tax payers money to get this enormous and gaudy entourage to the UK. The spending amounts are getting way beyond control.. and it scares the living day lights out of me. The amount of money that has been spent in the last 60 days or I should say has been projected to be spent... what is going to happen for the rest of the term... if the first 2 months are any indication there is no way our country will ever dig itself out.

The truth is, practice what you preach. For some reason Obama thinks he can go against the values that this country was established on. For starters medling in business... that is NOT the job of the government. But somehow we have gone to a government who is giving loans on the basis that we tell you how to run your business... that's great thinking. So does that mean since we are borrowing so much from our Chinese friends that soon they will be telling us how to run our country?
