obama will be leaving 2 days after the election to tour around India...
The trip will cost taxpayers 200 million a day for 10 days
The obama's will rent the entire Hotel Taj, 570 rooms
There are two jumbo jets coming along with Air Force One, which will be flanked by security jets. The President’s convoy has 45 cars.”
The Economic Times also reported that Mr Obama’s delegation is so large that another 300 rooms have reportedly been booked in other luxury Mumbai hotels.
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.
The Taj Mahal hotel was the scene of a three-day battle between Indian commandos and terrorists who stormed the luxurious Mumbai landmark as part of their deadly rampage through the city in November 2008
On the first day of his visit, Obama will pay homage to the victims of 26/11 Mumbai attacks at Hotel Taj where he is expected to make a statement on terrorism.
obama is to visit Mani Bhavan where a Mahatma Gandhi Museum stands...
some of the volunteers at Mani Bhavan have expressed displeasure over heightened security arrangements.
"Mani Bhavan is the place associated with Gandhi who promoted non-violence. But every day people from White House and US security agencies are coming with guns and sniffer dogs"
Criticism is sure to come as the trip approaches and it should, when unemployment stands at near 10%, and families struggle to make ends meet...
It is clear that obama and michelle and his administration learned nothing from the public outcry...
UPDATE:
obama will be taking along
36 war ships
46 jets
3,000 people
and he wants to be there to see the festival of lights

Otraitor is a man-child emperor-with-no-clothes. He is a rat vermin traitor with a plummeting popularity rating because he hates America, hates freedom and hates liberty. He works for the interests Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan (both under his tenure have become vastly more powerful) and the banking oligarchs along with Sen. Dodd and Rep. Frank. He supports expanded wars - but strangely Soros funded Code Pink and Media Matters are silent for this baby-dictator Obama. Obama is weak and the world is destabilizing, he is a slave to the oligarchical collectivists and rules our population with an iron fist with a velvet glove. Obama coddles terrorists, Iran, MS13 gangs, Mexican Narco-State Drug Czars and criminals with sanctuary and open borders. He cracks down on the middle class - the law abiding tax paying child bearing middle class whom he considers subjects in his regime. His IRS has audited at a rate 300% above normal and they are hiring tens of thousands of new auditors. His census was a Nazi-like info-gathering attempt. He has outspent all previous presidents in one year. He is big brother, he is a traitor and he is a little man child moron figurehead empty suit that acts chi...

He is big brother, he is a traitor and he is a little man child moron figurehead empty suit that acts childish and thin skinned because he is uneducated. Sure he was indoctrinated with progressive trash, but given what he says and thinks he is a stupid uneducated failure of a man that could not hunt, grow food for himself, nor even change his tire. He knows nothing of math, history, physics or chemistry, his ideas are idiot Alinsky eructations and regurgitations, his speech capability without a teleprompter is pathetic and he is one of the stupidest people to ever grace the Office of the President. This moron man-child Otraitor looks and acts like a thin skinned loser. He is a disgusting traitor and a progressive rat that will be remembered as the worst moth pathetic leader in modern US history.
This Obama regime is the modern Boss Tweed Tammany Hall. The depraved nature of the Democrat party and its hidden progressive-Marxist agenda has been a cancer on America for well over a 100 years now, and today, the main stream media is controlled by the progressives so we don't have Thomas Nast drawings exposing what this rat vermin Obama is doing.
What's with the invasion force, Emperor Obama.... I mean, Mr. President?
Wait a minute, where's the dog?
If he achieves something desireable and useful to the economy and job market, then we can quibble about the cost later.
I agree, the Democrats haven't been listening, but to be honest with you, the Republicans weren't listening four years ago. Do you think they'll listen now?
USA today is reporting that those numbers were wildly inflated...
Not that that would matter to you sorry saps. If someone starts a rumor about our president it MUST be true for you guys.
Shame on you all - You're an embarrassment to humanity, and most of you even call yourselves 'Christians' - your type of Christianity really makes me PUKE.

Shame on you all.
You really have outdone yourself this time,, and you should be embarassed.
Simply sickening.
BUT planning a trip halfway around the world 2 days after a major election isn't a good idea. If the Democrats had done well, the President should be here congratulating them and crafting an agenda. Since the Republicans did well, the President should be here congratulating them and crafting an agenda.
Especially when the energy prices were astronomical, no I didn't think so! How many vacations did Moron Jr. take in six months, eight to be exact!!!!! In fact he was on vacation when the informus BPD came in about Bin Ladin wanting to fly planes into buildings!
Condi Rices excuse, Moron was tired of swatting flys!
So now that the Reichwing/Fleabaggers have control, when is immigration going to be taken care of.......It seems kinda funny that now the Reichwing/Fleabaggers are in office that the issue of immigration is going to suddenly go silent!
Chop, chop, better hurry up and get on top of it......cricket, cricket, cricket.....
Two hundred million dollars!
No wait! Two BILLION dollars!
