Did you bother to read the entire article or just the headline? It will cost about the same as the Clinton trip or any other Presidents trip to Africa.

Of course Africa a continent rich in natural resources is not too important to you. I wonder why?

"... the cost of which is in line with previous presidential trips to Africa.."
I agree - most likely a waste of money. But this same story comes up with every president. Only the names and locations change. Moving on...

Yes but there was no sequester, cancelation of WH Tours, Military cut backs, and on and on. But the cutbacks are only for the normal people not for royalty.

Political hatred fomented by the billionaire Koch brothers funding reactionary political entities that spread concocted e-mails and propaganda, which entities unwittingly carry out the self-serving political agenda of these billionaires.

Unplug yourself from this misleading project, and put on your thinking cap. Say No to oligarchy and Yes to democracy in America.

So what's your point? Are you implying that the billionaire Koch brothers concocted this ABC news story? Or maybe it's that George Soros doesn't fund left wing-nuts that spread concocted e-mails and propaganda to unwittingly carrou out his political agenda?

Hmm, a report from ABC news based on an article from the Washington Post:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/obamas-trip-to-africa-poses-special-challenges-enormous-costs/2013/06/13/29d9270a-cd29-11e2-8845-d970ccb04497_print.html

Sure looks like it's hatred fomented by the Koch Brothers! Thanks for the chuckle. :D

But we can't afford to allow our kids to visit the WH... Why do dems ever support this guy? He has an attitude of the sequester will hurt you, but will not effect me or my family, we will spend taxpayer dollars until our heart is content!

Yes, well Clinton never closed the WH to the public, the president should have some sense of the image sends to his subjects.

Aren't you one of the people who are constantly putting down Fox News for reporting things about this president?

So two wrongs make a right? Do you realize you just named two democratic presidents?

I think the White House tours were cancelled because of security reasons. Military cut-backs I haven't heard about.

What security reasons? The kids almost didn't have the Easter egg hunt because it was said to be too expensive.
