Obama true to his roots is looting the U.S. Treasury...or is this some of that bailout money that can't be accounted for? "After the paper questioned the costs of a planned family safari, the White House nixed the plan. "The president and first lady had also planned to take a Tanzanian safari as part of the trip, which would have required the president’s special counter-assault team to carry sniper rifles with high-caliber rounds that could neutralize cheetahs, lions or other animals if they became a threat, according to the planning document. But the White House canceled the safari on Wednesday following inquiries from The Washington Post about the trip’s purpose and expense, according to a person familiar with the decision."...

Who do the Obama's think they are? Does Michelle think the American people OWE them this trip to their native land? Are their children aware of how their parents are taking what isn't theirs to take?

Is there any way that the House can withhold funding for this nonsense? OMG. Such arrogance. Spitting in our faces. I really, really do not like these people.

[NormsRevenge]

How much to keep them there? ;-]

“The cost of the 37 uniformed officers who direct the White House tours is $10,571 a day, according to Brian Leary, a spokesman for the Secret Service.”

Do the math.

Obama and family have to visit Obama's DADDY before he dies. As someone mentioned, Obama's visit to South Africa has been moved up without mention of why.

Cover the top half of this face, and tell me who you see.

$60 to $100 Million?

Is that all?

It still must be WAY cheaper than the Easter Egg Hunt or the White House tours..../s

"Military cargo planes will airlift in 56 support vehicles, including 14 limousines and three trucks loaded with sheets of bullet-proof glass to cover the windows of the hotels where the first family will stay. Fighter jets will fly in shifts giving 24-hour coverage over the president’s airspace so they can intervene quickly if an errant plane gets too close.

Sounds more like an invasion than a "trip". "D" Day was code-named Operation Overlord. What is this code-named, Operation Obamalord?

60-100 MILLION DOLLAR VACATION???? And he still won’t allow White House tours for TAX PAYERS who are PAYING for this VACATION!! Marie Antoinette time.

[von tirpitz]

14 limosuines??????

[Gene Eric]

He deserves it. Stopping picking on him. You’re all so mean.

[tumblindice]

Problem is, like stray cats they always come back. Maybe we could lock the door.

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

For that kind of dough, the IRS could have had a dozen conferences.

[fuzzylogic]

The trip probably *only* costs $10 million, he needs another $70 million or so to hand out to Islamic schools.

[Resolute Conservative]

I hate them.

"When President Obama makes his first extended trip to sub-Saharan Africa later this month, the federal agencies charged with keeping him safe won’t be taking any chances

Finish the sentence

The Obamas Family Trip to Africa to Cost $60 to $100 Million

Be worth twice that if they'd just stay the hell there!

Perhaps Barry is going to bring his brand of “racial harmony” to South Africa? His divider-in-Chief act has worked so well here. /s

"Hundreds of U.S. Secret Service agents will be dispatched to secure facilities in Senegal, South Africa and Tanzania. schtoop the locals."
